The official Japanese Pokémon Twitter account has announced that beginning in next month’s issue of CoroCoro (October issue, they’re dated a month ahead) a new comic will debut! It will feature a brand-new, as of yet unnamed trainer and his Rockruff.
Will be interesting to see if we get any hints of what we’ll see in Pokémon Sun & Moon during the two or three issues we get before the games’ release!
Also, it might just be me, but this new trainer looks rather like Tai from Digimon…

FEATURED DISCUSSION: PoéScribbles!










hopefully Ash will be retiring and a new trainer stands up in the tv series..
From the glimpse of the trainer we get, I don’t like his design much. I’d prefer something more akin to Alan
I agree with you. This one looks a bit young aswell
Ps. Alan is awesome
Yeah his hair is nuts, I personally always wanted to see a new female trainer take the lead or have someone like brendan or whatever to take his place
? Time: What will Torgoyle (DRAGON/FIGHTING) will look like?
It’s the supposed pseudo in this gen right
right i mean the 1st DRAGON/FIGHTING Pokemon how cool is that!
No I think supposed pseudo is Dark/Electric but there may be two of them, or Torgoyle line could be like Haxorus. We don’t know they’re real or not though.
I personally think they’re both pseudo’s! And that excites me to no end lol.
well i guess it will have a gargoyle look, with horns and wings
hmm Cool:)
When I talked about this on the previous discussion with the leaked list, I think the evolution line will be based on the medieval era, based on from Guardake and Guaroyal. The Dragon/Fighting would have a king-like appearance, while the Dragon/Steel would look like a knight, but both would still have a overall Gargoyle look.
I think I’ve figured out how the Rite of the Island Challenge will work:
1. You begin with completing the given trial.
2. You battle the Trial Captain.
3. You then battle the Totem Pokemon of the Trial Captain’s type or Island.
4. Once you defeat the Trial Captains of a given Island, then you fight the Kahuna.
Yet, I’m sorta confused about Melemele; I’m wondering if it has any Trial Captains on the Island. The leaker, Anon, said that each Island has four Trial Captains, so I assume Melemele has some. I’m quite sure that Luna, Mallow, Sophocles, and Kiawe are all on Akala Island. I believe that Gumshoos is one of the Totem Pokemon of Melemele Island based on it’s level; also there might be a Normal Type Trial Captain. I’m still expecting eight to ten Trial Captains.
I’m not so sure about battling all the captains to be honest. They said that not each trial will include battles. However, making the captains X specialists makes me wonder about the reason they give them a type if we’re not supposed to battle them. I’m also quite sure that all of the above mentioned 4 will be on Akala. Mallow in Lush Jungle, Kiawe on the top of the volcano, Lana at those watery things at the top of the island and Sophocles in the bigger building near the volcano.
I just really hope that we get to battle then and the totem Pokemon don’t replace that.
Ugh, what I missed? I hate timezones sometimes.

Omg no. Froslass is one of my favorite pokemon and this form looks horrible
It looks fine to me. 🙂 Froslass is one of my fave Pokemon as well, and I love this concept. 😀
Looks like a cool design. The brown is something I would need to get used to but overall it’s really good.
I just hope they fix a lot of Pokemon to have useful move pools. That’s all I ask
(Flareon)
Zebstrika is so basic. Give it some variety
I hope they dont make stupid, useless signature moves. (Noble Roar)
No idea if this is true, but a guy on Facebook says his Amourshipping picture of Ash and Serena in Alola outfit on RedBubble has been taken down because of a claim by the Pokemon Company. This would mean that Serena will go with Ash to Alola.
or maybe it was just an inappropriate picture and got taken down 😛 I don’t think gf/nintendo would care at all about something so minor
Ok guys, I have a theory, it may sound weird but here we go:
Some months ago in CoroCoro we had two new pokemon (Rockruff and Komala). And there was a note that said that Rowlet, Litten, Popplio and Rockruff have a secret.
Today we have that Pokedex that we don’t know if it’s real or not. But there it says that all the final evolutions of Rowleet, Litten, Popplio and Rockruff have a a bunch of forms or whatever.
Maybe that’s the secret
yeah thats what a lot of us are thinking is true, that the multiple evolutions is the secret.
I personally hope it’s true ^^
I hope it’s true too, but how would you evolve them into different forms?
If there are 4 evolutions for each of these pokemon, i’d assume that each one is specific to one island (as in, u can only get Rowlet’s, Litten’s, Popplio’s and Rockruff’s first final evo on Melemele Island, for instance)
they said that they evolved into the different forms depending on the island
I don’t know why but I want this Pokedex to be real so bad. Just because of QUASAUR. I can’t stop imagining it. If it turns out to be fake, I will be devestated because of that genius name, concept and typing being lost in the internet forever.
Quack+dinosaur=duck-billed dinosaur fossil pokemon?
I doubt it’s a deviation of quasar to become minior’s evo
I don’t understand a thing?
It’s cosmos, spectrum/spectra and quasar.
Are you referring to 2 other names that sound like cosmos and spectrum? I never saw any leaked pokedex, Im just going based on this one name .-.
Belmad is referring to the leaked Rumored Pokemon Cosmot, Spectrodon, and Quasaur. They appear to be a pseudo legendary line that is dark electric and based on cosmic energy/phenomenon+dinosaurs. I for one am highly excited by the prospect of true!
The Quasaur line and the Gargoyle line is what I am excited for, we’ve never had a Dragon/Fighting so I’m hyped!
Same here!! And they are both seemingly pseudo’s which hasn’t happened since gen 3! I can’t begin to explain my hype lol.
Yeah same here. Alola is turning out great so far, only thing bad in my opinion is Bruxish and Bewear.
Yeah Bewear is off to me as well. And while I despised Bruxish’s design upon first reveal I’ve actually grown to really like it. I love that it’s based on an actual Hawaiian fish which itself is also hideous lol.
I think Bruxish will have to be something I get used to, probably will take me some time though. BTW what are some of the Pokemon so far you want to include on your Sun/Moon team?
As far as full team I couldn’t say lol, so many amazing Pokemon just out of the ones actually real and revealed alone lol.
But I would love rockruff, vikavolt, alolan sandslash, mudsdale, litten, komala, pikipek, salamdit, lurantis, and wimpod just to name a few.
You see my problem lol?? I’m obviously gonna have to have multiple teams or a revolving roster! And that’s great!
That’s a lot of choices, but it’s great that you like a lot of them! So far for me, the ones that I would absolutely love to have on the team is:
Rowlet
Rockruff
Vikavolt
And like you, I’m having a hard time picking some on the team because I like them a lot, so the ones I might include is:
Alola Ninetales
Mudsdale
Mimikyu
Oricorio (Fire form)
Salandit
Wimpod (looks like it can turn into something awesome like Gyarados)
See lol?! This gen has some truly awesome Pokemon. And I love that I’m having a hard time making a team. If that leaked dex is real I will have an even harder time lol.
And I definitely see wimpod becoming a total bad*** like Magikarp to Gyarados.
Ohh can I get a link to that pokedex?
I actually don’t have it. However on the previous article someone posted a picture of it and someone else listed them out
Im sad because what if theis is the reason Rockruff is special… because it gets its own comic because it’s cute Dx
well then all the starters would have to as well, because remember they all share a secret, but I’m pretty sure they meant in game secret
Victoria’s secret :O
Who wants to do a listing of some type what Pokemon do y’all want to have Alolan forms? Mine are
Primeape- Fighting/??? to make it more in tune to the jungle like Mankey
Seel/Dewgong- Water or Water/Fire to show a migration to warm tropical waters and change to adapt in the heat
Clefairy/Clefable- Fire/Fairy where they could change the attitudes they have and praise the sun instead of the Moon could evolve by Sun stone
Primate yes I want that too, no clue why seel/dewgong would become part fire, but I can see them becoming a water type easily and welcome the idea. As for clefable line, I want alolan forms for them and gengars line that switches their typings somewhat to expand on the fact that gengar are clefables shadow 🙂
It was more for the Seel line to show it changing from frigid water to tropical water meaning to use the reverse of its origins that would be cool if Gengar changed with Clefable to show that!
But Gengar being Clefable’s shadow is only a theory, not a fact. I’m not trying to say that its not possible but I’m just reiterating the fact its still just a theory.
yes… everyone knows its a theory, no one said it was a fact, but lets be real here its probably one of the most believable pokemon theories out there with tons of evidence pointing towards it being true. Not everyone on the internet who states their opinion does so while thinking its a fact my dear, but thanks for the input.
Your exact wording to what I replied to was “to expand on the FACT that Gengar are Clefables shadow”
sorry I didn’t mean literal fact, we have a lot of slang and different ways of speaking where I come from so maybe it isn’t easily distinguishable online or in other parts of the world. I should have entered a basically in there somewhere so as not to cause confusion, that is my fault I am afraid, sorry I just always someone attacking me like every time I comment on something so I get easily defensive sometimes when I feel like people are going out of their way to come for me. I apologize.
Nah its all good. With all the internet trolls/assholes out there becoming defensive is natural. I’m sorry, if i came off as a know it all
Alola Clefairy: PRAISE THE SUN [T]/
Based on the possible leak for the Alola Region’s Pokedex,and based on the typings and theme of each island in Sun and Moon, I have come up with this graph to clearly show you of which island certain pokemon will evolve a different type.
You may also notice that in the Japanese Pokemon website decoding for the Starter’s Final Typing done a while back, has decoded their Typing from the Ulaula (Red Island) Pokedex.
So they wanna do a Pikachu on Rockruff! I’m fine with that, cause it has a great design.
I assume the character could be an in-anime rival for Ash and here we have his story.
I wouldn’t make the assumption of this being an anime-rival story but i guess its possible.
I could see the character become the anime rival. Something like Alain only Manga version follow his journey and than they catch up with each other.
I’ve fixed a blunder on the names of the islands.
I’ve fixed a blunder on the names of the islands.
I knew it was Robinroot, not Robingroot.
If Rockruff´s rumor its true about its evolution having access to fairy, dark, steel, fight as secondary type it will become one of my favorite pokemon from Alola.
Besides I love its design :3
