New Pokémon have been revealed for the upcoming Nintendo 3DS games Pokémon Sun & Moon!
- Oricorio is a bird Pokémon which has multiple styles which are different types Fire/Electric/Psychic/Ghost paired with Flying. The different styles can be found on different islands. It knows a special attack Revelation Dance and the type the attack is matches the style. It has the new ability Dancer which copies dance-based moves such as Quiver Dance.
- Minior is a Rock/Flying type Pokémon with the ability Shields Down. Its core varies in color
- Gumshoos is the evolution of Yungoos
- Fomantis and its evolution Lurantis are new Grass Pokémon. They can learn the new attack Solar Blade.
- Mudbray is the pre-evolution of Mudsdale
Alola Forms have been revealed! These are special versions of older generation Pokémon!
- Alolan Exeggutor is now Grass/Dragon
- Alolan Vulpix is Ice and its evolution Alolan Ninetails is Ice/Fairy with ability Snow Cloak
- Alolan Sandshrew and its evolution Alolan Sandslash are Ice/Steel
Other new features of the games have been revealed!
- Poké Ride is a new transportation method and allows you to use Pokémon to travel. These Pokémon do not join your team and can be called on anywhere. Charizard, Mudsdale, Sharpedo, Tauros and more are shown as examples
- The gym system seems to have been replaced with the island challenge. Trial captains will challenge you and specialize in certain types. They seem to have tasks which may or may not also be accompanied by battles. Each island has a Kahuna, or final leader, which must be beaten and also a totem Pokémon
- Z-Moves have been revealed as extra special attacks. Pikachu can learn Gigavolt Havoc. These powerful attacks can only be used once per battle. Each type has a different Z-Move.

So pokemon are adapting to new environments and changing type!? That’s really interesting but idk how I feel about it! Also, the charizard mount basically confirms Soaring will return, right? I called it!
Alternate typings for old Pokemon actually seems interesting. They looks pretty cool except for Exeggutor lol
Yeah and it has frisk…how the fuck is that thing going to frisk me? Slam its big head into my Pokemon’s body?!
Sounds more creepy then anything
So no gym leaders confirmed? I’m…not sure I like this tbh :/
Well… This changes everything
I will say, this trailer made me happier than any other sun and moon trailer so far. A few things I’d like to point out.
– no gyms likely, 4 trials + 4 kahunas
– how will we get Alola forms in games further down the line
– the leaks are real, obviously
– what is that weird rock ball thing?
I think Alola forms are found randomly in the wild.
Introducing Z-Moves
A new element has been introduced into the Pokémon battles in Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon: Z-Moves. Z-Moves are moves of great power that can only be used once per battle. When the Trainer and Pokémon’s wishes resonate with each other, and both release their full power together—the result is the explosive force of a Z-Move! All Pokémon can use Z-Moves to perform mightily in battl
It’s basically the Orange Islands on steroids.
With less islands… ; n ;
So really NO GYM LEADERS?
So Ash can travel to Alola? O.o
AHAHAHAHGAHAHAHA ALOLA FORMS I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT #BIOLOGY , BIG STORY FORMULA CHANGE THAT LOOKS EXCITING, and eh Z moves are aight but SUCK IT SYNCHRO (I hope)
Also the question remains, where are the megas. The postgame suggestions are getting stronger. NGL it’s gonna be a riot if they dare remove them.
Also kudos to who predicted the Mudsdale prevo!
I honestly thought it was mega exxeggutor (I watched the Japan version of the trailer first)
LEAKS CONFIRMED
YOu have a link to these leaks mate?
wat happened to the classic Pokémon ??? ……A new version of them or some kind of transformation?????
They’re like Galapagos finches, basically
That’s how they naturally are in Alola
Guys the evos are confirmed because Mallow, I think it was, was in Tiger 3 picture!
This was an epic surprise. Or as some people would say: “Didn’t see this coming..!”
What a twist!
Love it! 😀
Will someone put an English version!
I did, scroll down.

Ok so, there’s a Mudsdale pre-evo as expected…
Idk how I feel about the new form thing. It’s just unnecessary and complicated. So a Sandshrew that is an ice type?.. That just totally invalidates the name of the Pokemon. I might need a while to get used to these.
Exeggutor Dragon type
really???? it is a random concept AF
There’s probably a reason for it, there usually is.
Fomantis and Lurantis are some of the best Grass-types ever.
I thought they were bug? Or is that grass
Just grass. Maybe they’re in the Bug egg group?
People will attack them thinking they are a bug, which makes it funny
Agreed <3
Heck yeah, orchid mantises!
Mantis orchids actually (it’s a grass type pretending to be a bug, instead of what an orchid mantis usually is).
Right! Very clever, Game Freak.
Well damn! That rumour was totally right! I’d like it if someone could repost the link. I don’t know if HMs are returning after seeing all of the rideable Pokemon, I absolutely love the Alola Form Pokemon, and Z-Moves look crazy! Lastly, it seems like Gyms are being replaced with the island challenge!
I thought I saw it on 4chan originally, but I think this is the same list from the leak:
https://m.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/4tokxf/rumor_more_on_that_chinese_rumor_from_some_time/
It’s important to note that they said Ninetails would be Fire/Fairy, and this was the only pokemon they mentioned that was also revealed in the trailer.

Mallow is in this picture.
Oh. My dear lord.
How am I literally the only one who noticed that? xD
Well…I knew they were real from the start! That’s all that matters!
ITS BEEN CONFIRMED
#TeamPopplio
Leaks confirmed
I honestly don’t mind
Where was it confirmed?
Well. The leaks are real. Bring on Tony the Tiger!
Just please be fire/dark!
Nice spot! And eurgh. I mean yeah Rowlet evo! I mean eurgh the other two monstrositiesI I mean yeah awesome Robin Hood owl! I mean eurgh offensive bipedal tiger wrestler. I’m still divided as you’ve probably guessed.
Let’s pray for it to not be another Fire/Fighting
Too late, that one was confirmed by hacking of the Japanese website aeons ago. The proved the page for the starters had a fighting type symbol among its type images.
Well shit. Looks like Litten is out of the cards for me
Please no FIre/Fighting, PLEASE PLEASE
My bud gave me a low down on these leaks and they are Grass/Flying (YES), Fire/Dark, and Water/Psychic. All of are good.
Too late, that one was confirmed ages ago by that leafy youtube guy.
It also means that Ash may get all 3 starter Pokemon again if the picture of Litten’s final evo with a Popplio and Rowlet is to be taken right.
aw HELL no. bye bye Litten xD
Fuck Litten then
🙁
I wanted a regular ice type, like a brand new one. But an ice vulpix and sandshrew is nothing to be mad about, although it is a little weird.
MER-POPPLIO IS REAL THEN?! YASSSSS
I know my starter now
What exact leaks are now basically confirmed real? There are so many out there I’m super confused? Are we getting see cucumbers, rubgy gorillas, and those controversial starter evos?
The starter leaks are real, and that one other one with the delta forms.
If the leaks confirmed ….that mean we should wait dark type Ratata.
Does no one notice Tauros is white in the official artwork?
