New Sun & Moon Info Coming June 2nd

PokéJungle Hype Horn

The official Japanese Pokémon Twitter account has revealed that new information about the upcoming Nintendo 3DS titles Pokémon Sun & Moon will be revealed in two weeks on June 2nd. This “announcement of an announcement” should tide some fans over who have been waiting to know when we’d get more news about these anticipated entries in the main Pokémon series.

Sounds intriguing, although it may not be quite as exciting as the starter reveal we got this month! Over to the right is our official PokéJungle Hype Horn™ which we will be blowing FREQUENTLY and LOUDLY in anticipation of new information 😉

  1. Oh For anyone who is still in denial that Alola region is not based on numerous islands… Amazon spoilers return and confirm the back of the box. ?

    The description for the games reads “[e]mbark on a new adventure as a Pokemon Trainer and catch, battle, and trade all-new Pokemon on the tropical islands of a new Region and become a Pokemon Champion!” Amazon’s description confirms the theory that the Alola region will be a series of islands. ?

  3. Favorite types ( not if you have fave PKMN in them, more just the type itself)? For me, divided into three ranks ( fave to least fave)

    1) Fairy, Ice, Dragon, Dark, Psychic, Ghost
    2) Steel, Water, Fire, Electric, Grass, Flying
    3) Fighting, Normal, Poison, Bug, Rock, Ground

  4. School is over! 😀 Now I’ll probably start playing Y version. Well, I’ll finish Red first (gotta grind for the elite 4)

    • In Japanese, Double Slap is known as Round Trip’ Slap. So, it does have the ability to hit multiple times because the name doesn’t correlate. Blame the English Translating Team. It’s basically how Aerial Ace is called Shallow Return since a lot of Pokemon learn the move and not to heavily associate it with the Flying-Typing.

      Reply
    • I believe it is called Double Slap not because of how many times it hits, but because oh how fast it hits.
      Like when someone thinks your going to slow, (Gym Teachers. LOL) they yell “Common move it, move it, double time, move, move, move.” LOL. And also when you see it being used in the anime, the characters arm/hand is usually moving in rapid succession back and fourth while hitting. And it usually hits far more times than five in the anime. 😀

      So that’s why I think that its called “Double Slap.”

  6. I’m glad that multiple islands are virtually confirmed. I don’t know why people thought that the first island was the complete region. These means that Alola might be one of the most sprawling region. I cannot wait to see the info on June 2nd.

    Reply
    • You could easily figure out that the island shown would be one of many. There’s no way it’s the only one, given that many of the places shown in the first announcement trailer are not visible (from what I remember) in the first island!

  7. You guys.. I’ve been thinking about it. Based on the positioning of the types .. I really do think Rowlett turning Grass Ground is more probable. But.. I also read a YouTube’s comment that these my just be their typing for their first evo.. so Litten Could gain a second type. If it’s a trio.. maybe.. Litten will become part fairy or psychic at the end..
    Also if the info comes out the 2nd.. doesn’t that mean corocoro promised it’s own information.. different from what we first get??

    Reply
      • There is a first for everything i would be ok with rowlet becoming half ground. Plus ground seems to be before the fire which is suspect. You never know

        Reply
      • I KNOW!!! ?
        I was as passionate about this BS as you all… but… based on the positions.. then it’s possible

        Reply
      • THANK YOU!!! It’s not that they haven’t done type changing Pokemon before. It has happened, but for the starters it’s improbable for it to happen. Sure you could say there’s a first time for everything, but in this case I’d have to agree with you and say it’s bs lol I don’t think they will ever do type changing starters.

        Reply
          • I wouldn’t even say it’s because of tradition though. You have to look at this very systematically. Yes Pokemon is for everyone, but GF look at very specific clientele and have their own ways of doing things. Again there is a first time for everything and it could happen, but people are reading too much into the order of these images. For all we know it’s just how the programmer for the site inputted the info and the actual order means nothing. GF are going to do the starters differently than they would other Pokemon and that means in a lot of ways the starters are going to end up being for a lack of a better term kind of boring type wise. They won’t experiment with the starers because they have to be the constant throughout the entire game. GF aren’t thinking about the people who dumb their starter at the beginning they are thinking about those who keep them.

            On a side note I’m glad we have the same postilion on this subject hahaha

    • lol wut? How would Litten become Fire/Psychic or even Fairy. I think it could only go two ways in complete typing:
      Rowlett: Grass/Flying, Litten: Fire/Ground, and Poppilo: Water/Fighting Rowlett: Grass/Ground, Litten: Fire, and Poppilo: Water/Fighting

      Reply
      • This is ALL honestly rediculous. Have you not realized that for the past 4 generations, we as fans have feverishly predicted the final stages of the starter Pokemon and have been wrong EVERY time?

        Rowlet won’t be part ground because they’re not going to change a starter pokemons type that drastically. They wouldn’t give the world an avian, grass/flying starter just to make it another grass/ground type in the long run.

        Litten will most likely not be ground either seeing as we already have so much of the fire/ground combination but it’s not completely out of the range of possibility. I’m personally still banking on it becoming a dark type based on the extreme levels of black in its coloration but any thing could happen.

        As for poplio, this ones all up in the air and I really fear that they will completely fuck over its final Evo wether it be by its type or its design. Best of luck to this poor guy.

        Bottom line is that whatever you’re thinking about the way these starter evolutions will turn out, it’ll probably be the opposite

        Reply
    • Where are you getting Fairy and Psychic from? the reason people think the evolutions will be ground and fighting for them is because of the images form the website. If Litten was going to be either of the two you said there would have been an image. I don’t think they would have posted the other images and not one for Litten too. The images are ore or less place holders and technically weren’t suppose to be found in the first place.

  8. What do you guys think/want Alola Post game will be like?
    I want something like sinnoh where there is a whole island off with new things except i want it to be a couple of islands. One of those islands containing Battle frontier. I hope the post game is pretty big sure delta story and looker saga was “cool” and all but once you finished that there was nothing to do. i think i want something that can last me a while. Battle frontier does just that. To each their own though, some people dont do after game battle tower like place and just like exploration. I would love a good mix.

    Reply
    • That would make for a good post game. I want to see something similar to the Delta Episode done again. Maybe, they could use Volcanion and Magearna as a post game story. A new battle facility would be neat with some other side quests and legendaries sprinkled in.

      Reply
      • I would love if they made catching all the legends side quests. Like remember how getting event legends in gen 4 were side quests. It would be cool if all legends were like that, rather than go to this place and the legend is just sitting there.

    • I just want a villa of my own
      A customizable base that lets you have your own area, and a backyard ranch based on what decorations you plant that would attract Pokemon of a certain type

      Reply
  9. I said Litten may get Fairy or Psychic in its final evo only if Rowlett gets ground. This way they all become super effective against the type they were weak against.. which would make your rival getting the weaker type make sense as well..
    I Don’t want to believe this.. but… Who Knows! ?

  10. I still wonder what they mean by “It all comes together”. Do they mean they’re incorporating features from previous games into SM? I highly doubt they’ll let us return to previous regions but who knows

  14. So since we got some fresh blood around I want to ask a personal question
    If you could have a custom Mega Accessory what would be (Best Three)
    Mega Hat: a Cowboy/Safari hat with Pokemon teeth and claws in the rim with the keystone In the center
    Mega Claw: I would “wedge” the keystone into a Ursaring Claw which I fashioned into a shamanistic necklace
    Mega Belt: just a thick ruddy leather belt with the keystone in a Sideway Cubone skull styled belt buckle (in the eye socket)
