The Pokémon leaked earlier today have been officially revealed through a YouTube video which can be seen above. The trailer is for the upcoming Pokémon Sun & Moon hitting the Nintendo 3DS in November.
- Tapu Koko (JP: Kapu Kokeko) is Electric/Fairy and knows new move “Nature’s Wrath” and knows new ability which activates Electric Terrain
- Charjabug (Denjimushi) is shown evolving into Vikavolt (Kuwaganon, kuwagata + cannon)
- Drampa (Jijiiron, grandpa + dragon) is first Normal/Dragon-type
- Cutiefly revealed to be Bug/Fairy
- Bruxish is Water/Psychic. It’s ability is seen blocking Fake Out and previously Quick Attack, so it does seem to protect it from priority moves
- Togedemaru is Electric/Steel and has the ability Lightning Rod

I don’t remember who stated the theory of the four guardians being a totem pole. What if the strange souvenir is used to unite the four guardians?
Or it could just be a souvenir…that’s strange lol
Still, with all of these amazing designs, we’re missing on thing… Our Dolphin Pokemon. 🙁 It hurts!
It shall come.
Dont worry, it will come. This is a Hawaiian region! If we dont get it, gamefreak is stupid af
Wouldnt surprise me one bit if we dont get one tbf
What it the dolphin design is for one of the island guardians? Though, this contradicts my hypothesis from a few tooany articles ago
I wouldn’t like that tbh.
I wouldn’t either but I had the fear that it could be lol
I don’t like when legends are based on real animal species because no one wants to use them.
We’ve had cats (kind of lol), an orca, snake, deer, peacock, etc. But I get what you mean. I like the non-animal looking ones. They feel more legendary
Steel/Water bottlenose dolphin line, please.
It will never happen.
I would rather have a narwhal.
which are Dolphins with a Really Long Tooth, Usually the Left one.
Dolphin evolving into a narwhal
MEGAHORN NARWHAL
ok ignore my narwhal facts then!
That fact is a lie!
look it up!
Narwhals are whales with a protruding tusk!
and it’s usually the Left one!
Tusks are modified teeth. They’re analogous to one another.
Let it have a new ability that powers up horn, drills, and jab moves
Moveset:
Drill run
Poison jab
Megahorn
Stab move
lol stab move… pun intended I hope
No, but hahahahahhahahhaha I’m too tired to do puns atm
DONT LET THE HATERS HATE ON THE DREAM A DOLPHIN POKEMON WILL COME!!!
So much for a guardian pokemon…i mean knocking spearows out of the sky isnt exactly what a guardian would do lel unless they are evil spearows or something
Ughhhh I hate work
I hope tomorrow morning we get an official official trailer
Be back in 4 hours
It’s only 4 hours, you’ll live
But work is tooooootttaaalllyyy laaaaaaaaammmmme
Gotta make that paper! Lol when you end up doing something you love in the future, your outlook will change.
I know a lot of people are wanting a dolphin Pokemon this generation and I agree that it would be nice to have one, but I’d love to have another octopus pokemon
we got a squid and a octopus, wha more can ya ask? said japanese game developers.
I never understood how remoraid evolves from fish to octopus but whatever
through the same way bagon grows wing. power of think pluslely.
But bagon has shelgon in between which makes it a little more realistic i guess but i get your point
THE POWER OF POSITIVE THINKING!
Remoraid is a revolver, and then octillery is based on a tank or canon. But fish to octopus is still really jarring and doesn’t make much sense at all.
I just want to say that the background of the area that shows Bruxish is beautiful! It is a huge step up from gen 6.
Oh my i just remembered that orcas/killer whales are a type of dolphin! I hate to say this but we already have a dolphin pokemon in the type of kyogre
Kyogre is Leviathan, but like Levias in SS, not Leviathan in FF or basically any other RPG
Yeah but the visual concept is from orcas i believe, nonetheless we need a non-lengendary dolphin pokemon
So I really think dunsparce will evolve into drampa. First of all they have similar color schemes, they have those white wings, they both are normal types, and it could be a similar gimmick from ugly feebas to beautiful Milotic with dunsparce (dunce) turning into a wise grandpa dragon. Sorry if this has been said before, the comment section is blowing up! 🙂
You’re reaching boo. If there was an evolutionary connection, I’m pretty sure they’ve would’ve promoted it.
You have a point their I used to want connections between old now I’m against that sort of.
Haha i actually thought about this a while back but then again the first time i saw eelektros i thought it was the evo of lanturn so yeah
Let’s compare side by side. They are both normal types with wings. They both have some turquoise and green. That’s it. Nothing in Duns’ design hints at a snout, or sprouting of hair/tail feathers. There’s no trace of the drill-like tail in Drampa. It’s a huge evolutionary jump that you could make with any pokemon of the same type if you use the Feebas/Magikarp logic (Stantler evolves into Sawsbuck).
If it were the evo of a previous pokemon they would’ve advertised it that way like Sylveon.

Happy with the designs and the typings 🙂
Is cutiefly a mosquito a humming bird or something else?
It’s a bee hummingbird and it’s adorable
I don’t know but I freaking love it
A bee fly
They are real? The hell is wrong with GameFreak.
Whatever’s wrong with them seems to be going around.
What do you mean?
HOLY SH*T I JUST WOKE UP. I LOVE ALL OF THEM BUT ARE WE STILL GETTING THE JULY 1ST NEWS?
I hope so
They are probably these and leaked early
I would assume that’s what this is.
Are the electric bug Pokemon grubbin’s evolutions. I mean it looks very obvious, I just do t know…
Yes I know Serebii is not 100% but they look and seem like it
Yup they are
As far as I know, it’s not confirmed, officially, but it’s likely so.
Likely, since Grubbin lives near power plants and likes electricity.
I hate the dragon. Reminds me of Steven Magnet from MLP. Steven is cooler. I like the electric bug type but not the middle stage of it. I wanted a damn dolphin that was water/Psychic, not a Spongebob character, I like the bee, I don’t care for Tapu Koko but it’s kinda cool, and I LOVE THE ELECTRIC STEEL PORCUPINE THAT I’VE FINALLY GOTTEN
Uhh its more a Hedgehog!
We already have Shaymin for that.
Has no effect on Togademaru being a hedgehog too. Look at all the feline, birds, fish, etc. we have
It’s a fucking porcupine
Hedgehog
Refresh
First is a porcupine, second is a hedgehog
See?
Isnt sandslash a porcupine?
Their can be more than one of the same kind like the Cats the Dogs The Fish
But Steven Magnet is the most fabulous sea serpent to ever be conceived
He is. This derpwad of a Dragon we got is like… Ugh…
Well tough nipples we don’t always get what we want
Same. I’m not really a huge fan of Drampa, it’ll probably grow on me but as for now, it’s.. blegh
I really hope this wasn’t July 1st news. It think this was part of it, but they will maybe reveal the characters and stuff tomorrow (assuming there was something else)
I woke up to some great news :3 I think these designs are pretty good overall. Not a fan of the middle Grubbin evo, but the last one really make me want to add it to the team. Tapu Koko is ok, but I feel the things on its arms are a bit too much, like without them it would be great. Drampa kind of reminds me of a dopey Pete’s dragon kind of thing, which made me giggle but it’s ok design-wise. Cuteifly looks really adorable, realyl want to see if there’s an evo. Bruxish look like a parrotfish to me, so it really nailed the design, even if I think parrotfish are not the prettiest fish. Really wished the Water/Psychic typing went to a dolphin, but it’s a nice typing. And then Togedemaru, which is the Pikachu clone of Alola I think. It’s not my fav Pikachu clone design but Electric/Steel is cool and I think it is cute.
I think this was tomorrow’s news, but who knows? :3
On a side note: The Shaymin event has begun for Europe and Australia
Seeing a pattern of electric types from the first island.. What if Grubbin’s niche is that it evolves into the corresponding secondary type of whichever Guardian’s island it’s on? Like it evolves into Vikivolt on the first island because of Tapu Koko? Probably not but hey haha
Do you think they are all from the first island?
I can’t find the fish that Bruxish is based on
None of them have the head wiener
It reminded me of a parrotfish somewhat, and I think someone I follow on Twitter pointed out a Hawiian fish, although I forgotten the name. Looks like a parrotfish too, so *shrugs*
Its probably based on the state fish of hawaii, the humuhumunukunukuāpuaʻa or better know as reef tigerfish
Sorry i meant reef triggerfish
Do you know if that fish is related to parrotfish, because they do look similar to other parrotfish? (I’m just curious is all)
Idk if triggerfish and parrotfish are related but bruxfish has similar colors to parrotfish so its possible
The ‘head wiener’ is probably an exaggeration of the triggerfish’s anterior dorsal fin which is retractable.
I love these pokemon none of them look bad to me and they all have unique designs, i especially love grubbin (maybe) evolutions. Whoever your design team is, make about 120 more of these and youll be golden
Not 120 more of THESE ?????
I guess its a love hate relationship amongst the people. I love them they all look gorgeous. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I like your thinking I like them all too
These are the worst designs since Gen 1.
No way youre crazy! These designs are the better than gen 6 designs
I liked Gen 6 and I wish we had more. I didn’t care for like, Quilladin and a few others but I liked Gen 6
Gen. 6 was by far the worst Generation to me this is a great region
Drampa is the only one I am meh about, the rest I think are great :3 (although Tapu Koko I feel is a bit too much with its arm things)
I love Drampa i might use it its so cute to me! Hopefully its not the pseudo please no more dragon pseudos
It’ll probably grow on me like the other designs :3 Right now, I’m just wondering if Cutiefly will get an evo. It’s my fav along with Vikavolt (which is weird as I don’t normally care for Bug types)
Nvm I like both of Grubins evos. The first one is supposed look 8-bit so that’s cool. Still hate the dragon though.
It’s actually a battery
I prefer taser.
Oh. Would you look at that. An electric porcupine. And Earthen was right about the lightning rod thing too.
YES ITS A PORCUPINE
Yeah. I wanted that too. We were talking about it a few articles ago.
I really want this to have a Raichu-esque evolution, but I doubt it will happen.
I wonder why they stopped the pikaclones from evolving…did that start with gen 3?
Gen 2 didn’t have a clone so yah the first clones Minun and Plusle didn’t evolve. Which is weird. The original evolves and yet none of the clones do. What is weirder and perhaps why the clones don’t evolve is because they don’t let Pikachu evolve even though he can.
Well gen 2 actually brought us Pichu, so they didn’t need a “clone” because they were heavily promoting prevos at the time
Arguably Pichu is the “clone”.
Right but you catch my drift
Yep, I guess I do!
Right but that wasn’t a clone and yah they went baby heavy.
I forgot about Pichu lol I thought it was gen 3 for some strange reason
Marill was supposed to be the pikaclone i believe (its original name was pikablu aswell)
Pikablu goddamit why do people still bring that up haha.
Makes sense to me. I thought Marill was a water pikaclone but eh lol
That was more of a thing between fans than actual canon
Pikablu!
Pikaclones have to be Electric rodents.
Yeah. That would be pretty cool.
See my post below, it’s a hedgehog. Sandslash is more porcupine.
But Sandslash is a pangolin
That’s right! Because of the layered think “spikes”.
Togademaru still looks more like a hedgehog than a porcupine

You’re right.
I actually like them all, ya know…. except for that Jenga block. But I’m warming up to it because I love it’s evolution.
Charjabug is supposed to based on a battery
Yeah. I can see that.
I didnt like it and then I realized it was supposed to look 8-bit bc of its cry.
It’s also a 9-volt battery
Me gusta
I love Drampa and Bruxish so much ^_^ These are great
My opinions,
Tapu Koko- It reminds me of gallade for some reason but it’s a really cool design!
Charjabug- A little to simplistic for my tastes but it’s ok
Vikavolt- This one is really cool although I have little to say about it
Bruxish- this thing is UGLY, definitely not using!
Drampa- I like it except for its freaky eyes
Cutiefly- I love it’s typing and design, I love tiny bugs! Plus it’s based on my favorite bug the bee fly!
Togedemaru- meh, it’s ok, It’s my least favorite pikaclone by far tho
