New Japanese Pokémon Sun & Moon Commercial

by

A new Japanese commercial has been released for Pokémon Sun & Moon has been released and includes some interesting new details:

  • Eevee appears to be a wild Pokémon in Alola and, if the Pokéballs behind it on the Pokédex registration screen are correct, has no new evolutions
  • Amie-like feature makes a return, Pikachu is shown being groomed using a Porygon-2 style hairdryer
  • Tauros, Lapras, Sharpedo and Stoutland are all seen as being rideable/used for transporation
  • Some beautiful areas shown off, including volcanic one
  • New ‘Synergy’ stones & attacks teased (using fan made moniker, not official)

Game looks GREAT! Hype!

  2. In regards to Flygon, Hydreigon and Dragonite and the future of megas. I quote the legendary Daenaerys “Stormborn” Targaryen when I say…”WHERE ARE MY MEGAS?!” I do not care about no stupid special moves which are nothing more than a shortcut to not be creative.

  3. So there’s no questioning that these wristbands involved some kind of super move
    That I came to accept, and as long there’s no cheesy weaboo fusion nonsense then it should be fine
    Now what we really have to think/worry about is the execution of these moves. I deducted that these super attacks are most likely either unique to the Pokemon using them or every type would have their own attack and or buff as demonstrated by the flashing type symbols
    Now we have very little to go by in this short trailer but we’re a….smart bunch and can probably peg down something

    Me, I’m leaning towards the wristbands hold some kind of Philosopher Stone (Or Pokesopher stone) that enables a one time super attack that provides a different attack or status based on Pokemon Type

    • Yeah, I’m also thinking that it’s based on type, there’s just no way they would introduce a new attack for every evo line. The philosopher stone idea is interesting but seems possible. I just hope that these dance moves don’t indicate that you actually have to play some kind of a rhythm game to get the max power of that move, that would be horrible. Apart from that, I’m sold.

  4. Guys, my dad’s uncles’ daughters ex-fiance was a beta-tester for pokemon sun an moon. He says that there will be 40 new pokemon, no gyms, 2 islands come with the game purchase (the other two are DLC). Rowlett evolves into a coconut tree bird with three faces on each coconut. Litten evolves into a smaller kitten with incredible fighting abilities; and popplio evolves only once and acquires a normal typing (popplio is considered to be great for beginners).

    In order to beat an island you have to defeat any ten trainers, most of which will be NPC. The game is completed once you defeat any 20 trainers and face off with the thrilling three (which replace the elite four). The thrilling three consists of one battle in which all three of the opponents engage in a triple battle with you. There is also no experience points, you collect pokechips across the region as well as attack vouchers. Meaning, you use the pokechips to level up and the vouchers to temporarily use an attack; these are also used for online play. Lastly, your pokemon need to be fed, bathed, groomed, and monitored extensively in order for it to follow commands.

  5. Guys, I just made a screenshot of the menu screen of Sun and Moon from the Japanese trailer. Few of the menus look interesting and there are 2 pages which is quite interesting. Refresh for image.

    • As you can see, the first button is probably the party, I don’t see the caption clearly. The Rotom Dex pretty much speaks for itself. The yellow one is our bag. The one next to it is the save button called Report in Japanese games. The interesting part (for me at least) is the Trainer Pass button. Yes, that’s not a card, but a pass. They always called it card before so it’s a bit weird. Isn’t that a Shuppet next to it? The last button is Pokewafure, most likely the expanded Amie feature. The name’s origin might be Pokémon, the Japanese particle wa and the Japanese pronounciation of Friends (furenzu). The second page is most likely for wonder trade and stuff like that. The Trainer Pass thing insterests me tho. If there’s no card, how would our card color change when we beat the league and things like that?

  7. That Guy Tylotic I hope that’s a joke or he lied cause that is the WORST Pokemon idea ever an Island that’s so big you have to beat 10 trainers on both cause the others islands are inaccessible and a starter that doesn’t evolve twice NO! Makes no story plot reasonable how would the Legendaries be involved I mean for me personally I would Quit Pokemon if this is true No no!
