I hope we get as good a variety of Pokémon before gym 2 as we did in BW2 and XY ! That was one of the best things about those games! So much variety 😀
I just want something
Usually by this time I could haves pretty good idea of what Pokemon I want
Like for instance the moment I saw Pancham I wanted it
So… since I didn’t see anybody talking about this, I decided to point it out myself 😉
Here you go ^^
P.S.: Super big Alola map here: http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1464876038841.jpg
I feel like its too stretched out making it seem very small. The islands themselves lpok snall too
I mean at least two gyms per isle
SO… PRETTY… <3 <3 <3
Damn dude where’d you find this, the resolution is off the charts clear
You can basically map out the whole place
I see
Icy mountain with lifts
A muddy Plateau
Dense forests with a swamp
A volcano very active I might add a desert
Some black obsidian geysers
A gigantic tree
Waterfall
Just so clear
The image is literally everywhere ? .
I mean the clearness of this one is much better when you zoom
I know! It’s amazing!
Everyone seems to be going for the gigantic tree, but I feel like that big triangular vertical pride rock is the “temple” where the legendaries are found…
Everything looks so small u__u
This is beautiful! Thank you! Now I’m trying to work out possible paths we will be taking through the region! I love Alola already I’m so excited!!!
The areas that caught my attention:
HOLY CRAP I SEE A ACTIVE VOLCANO HOT DAMN
Please some lava Pokemon
Im glad to see an ice part (dont know why there is an ice part to every pokemon game) hopefully we get some nice ice types. And steel types
Well there goes my iceberg theory but nonetheless if you have high mountains you’re bound to see a steady drop in temperature
Lava pokemon and a Dunsparce evo (Ground typing ofc)
Yeah, that’s probably, no definitely, gonna play a part in the game.
Fire/Fairy
Plot twist, all pokemon become part fairy and Rhyperior becomes mono fairy
Good info.
Tbh it sucks to check this website on mobile. Ads everywhere I could barely see the actual post.
OMFG SOOOO MANY COOL AREAS!!!
Judging from the map alone. Alola is the most diverse looking region to date.
I am so exited for this region it looks great!
Also that blue building at the bottom looks to be the one from the sketch I think 🙂
I’m actually really really excited for Sun and Moon! They’re saying there’s going to be a bunch of new Pokemon so hopefully around 80-100
Thank you for posting some clear images of these areas! The artificial island might be the Pokemon League, but to me it looks like some sort of post game battle resort. I think the E4 will be found on top of that icy mountain on the largest island. I can kind of make out what could be victory road, which is something the artificial island does not have.
Team Plasma would flip if they got word of the Rotom Pokedex
The Sunne pokemon is weak to fire and the Moone pokemon is weak to dark
Why?
You do realize that the sun does not actually contain fire right? A common misconception people tend to make. There’s not enough oxygen in space to create flames.
The sun is extremely hot. I think it would be logical to give Solgaleo the fire type.
Yes its hot, but it doesn’t contain fire
And sunny day is a fire type move?
So? That doesn’t mean a sun-based pokemon should be a fire type. Like I said, the absence of oxygen in space makes it impossible to create flames or fire.
The sun is mostly helium (He – which is flammable). The gravitational force works against the force that’s “flinging” particles. This generates friction which generates heat (release of energy from frictional force). That’s just for one atom of He. Now, multiply that by the volume of the sun. All that friction and heat will make flames (fire).
O2 isn’t required as there are more flammable elements out there. O2 is just versatile as it has a high electronegativity.
Which starter do you think is gonna be Ash’s in the anime? Since the water one is basically out of the equation I think he’s coming back to the good ol’ fire type.
I think Litten and if Serena travels with him I think it is almost a guarantee that she will get Popplio since they are both performers.
Good point
Yeah, popplio would be a perfect match to serena.
I wouldn’t rule out Rowlet, flying types are usually his 1st capture when he starts in a new region.
Very true, just a matter of whether they want him to have Rowlet or the “basic” bird pokemon
Has anyone found the Moondial? :C
Is it that nifty looking thing next to the ice top mountain…?
Verlis is really getting on my nerves. Now he actually thinks Burst Hearts will appear in Sun and Moon, even though ReBurst’s target audience were the more adult pkmn fans, and the games’s target audience are kids. Cringeworthy individual that guy
… *refresh*
Yes, yes indeed.
When Poke’tubers make stupid theories (refresh):
I have the same expression whenever I come across an UnlistedLeaf video. Minus the I love you. Cuz I hate him.
What’s sad it’s that their subscribers take their theories and run with it. Remember that whole generation 6.5 thing?
So if the league is on an artificial island, does that mean Victory Road is inside a building (artificially created), or is there going to be a different pre-league challenge?
Maybe it’ll be underwater ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Ffs that would be so insanely awesome

Volcano
Give us a gym inside that volcano. Cinnabar gym still in my top 3
Lillie gives me a N and Mitsumi from the Pokemon Diamond and Pearl Adventures manga series vibe. I feel as though she’ll be a really competent trainer who is integral to the summoning of Lunala or Solgaleo and is used by the antagonistic team and you have to save her with Hau.
There’s like a pic uploaded earlier on this thread (have to scroll down quite a bit I think) which indicates shes the offspring of N and Cynthia XD
Everyone seems to be the offspring of someone lately… 😛
For those of you unfamiliar with Mitsumi *refresh*:
Pretty awesome news! Rottom Dex is perfect! There seems to be a lot going on in the region and I can’t wait to see more!
I’m late, but has anyone thought of that tree and the connection to xerneas, yveltal, and zygarde yet? I know their myth is based upon a tree of life just kind of interesting to me. This trading card game commercial came to mind as it shows zygardes connection to trees/ nature. Maybe zygarde and its forms will come into play? To me it also appears like a light is shining in this area highlighting its importance (or it could just be a thin cloud) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnjPfOSyog4
Wait whaa? Tree? What tree? Im confused are we still talking about sun and moon?
Xerneas’s myth is based on the tree of life, not so sure about Yveltal and Zygarde though.
Yveltal is based on a cocoon…a cocoon of destruction
They’re all related to the tree of life Norse myth. Xerneas the stags around the tree, yveltal the crow atop the tree, zygarde the snake below its roots
Well this actually might play out in the anime
Flare is harnessing the energy from Z2 which is the second Zygarde Core and demonstrated the energy was harnessed into a beam that causes wild excelerated plant growth, but honestly when do these TCG ever line up with the canon
The 4 big characters so far 🙂 5 if you go by Gender diff 😉
Where’s Hala?
That moment you become irrelevant when a hot professor shows up…
Keep it in your pants
No thanks, I much prefer it out. 😛
I swear Gamefreak better make some heavyset females in Sun and Moon it’s nothing but slim and petite
Well, it is Hawaii.
I know but still, you’re more likely to see one of the icons heavyweight male islander then a female one
Honestly has there ever been a non-slim female character in Pokemon history (Anime and Manga do not count)
Lenora?
Ehh moderate thick build but still not what I’m looking for
What are you looking for?
Somewhere between Tierno and Hiker
Maybe they will make female Hikers this generation
I wouldn’t count on it
Me like heavyweight males
I won’t interfere with your lust for BHMs if you don’t get in my way for BBWs
I like BBQ
I want to give BBQ to a BBW
All yours
Fine
I’m fine with heavyweight males
There are a lot of heavyset women in Hawaii. A LOT.
ain’t no Hala-back… guy?
Hala is the hot buff guy in the yellow shirt who gives us the starter. Hes seen in the first trailer from last month.
Here ya go
just trying to make a “Hollaback Girl” joke
Guys! My Entomology professor is awesome! She is letting my group do a project on the anatomy of bug Pokemon!
But… there aren’t any bug Pokemon to dissect… LOL JK! Congrats! That sounds like a lot of fun!
If only Pokemon were real….I would be terrified
Say guys can you help me load up the hype-train for our trip to E3 plz?! 😀
So everyone is saying that the artificial island is probably the pokemon league. But the thing is, when something seems very likely, it’s probably not going to happen. This is something that I’ve learned with Game Freak. The likely is unlikely.
Now, I would love a futuristic artificial Victory Road, but I don’t know if Game Freak would something that obvious. However, I don’t see a Pokemon League looking building anywhere else.
Underwater victory road?
Maybe!!!
I think Victory Road will be the icy cave on the tall mountain, and the League on the mountain adjacent. If you notice, there’s a Pokemon Center before the icy cave, and a path on the opposite side leading to a blue building and another Center. Typical Victory Road setup.
I’m just sitting here waiting for the GameXPlain analysis of the trailer.
Ditto
Theory/TeaTime
Lillie is the daughter of the main villain of Sun and Moon and she is an undercover agent for them and pretending to be the assistant of the Professor while she stealing all the files for the evil organization but at the end she will have a epiphany and turn into a good girl
And then you fall in love and ride into the sunset
yes
Barf
And then there is a flash forward and you have five children. No post game.
Lame, why can’t we get a female protagonist with a little more spitfire
also tea! that pokedex rotom better be used in battle. it was about time they made the bulky electric/ghost rotom
Reading your theories and thinking about what I would want to have in sun/moon: more poison pokemon (that aren’t bug); the possibility to use dive outside battle; more fat and dark skinned characters (maybe a black champion) and the possibility of choosing the difficulty level.
I too have been interested in Poison Types recently but since this is an odd number we’re getting a two staged poison blob fersure
right? so true.
I hope they go for a evil living puddle of acid!!
It is so corrosive that it’s halfway melted in the ground
And very powerful Sp Def and it would have access to Acid, Acid Spray,
