Shigeki Morimoto is set to appear in a special broadcast at Gamescom where he will present a live gameplay demo of Sun & Moon. Below you can find our live coverage of the demo as well as a live stream of the broadcast. Note that the demonstration is likely to be in Japanese and German, though we will provide translations where necessary!

First one here Oooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! Too much Hype
Praying to Arceus we get a good dark type pokemon
It is just a Gremlin that just gets bigger and hairier as it evolves
Grungaboo
No, it has to be cool, not ugly
Yes!!
New Pokemon Come On Sun & Moon !
Wtf is that walking noise?
You don’t wanna know
I think it was miitomo? Someone said that on the youtube stream. Anyway theyre playing nice mario music now.
Hopefully we’ll get somin good, I mean even gameplay of new areas is pretty cool
Not getting my hopes up just in case
The fact it is a live demo leads me to think it will be early game footage again so not much new and no confirmation of mega or hm’s sadly so a few new areas and maybe 1 or 2 new pokemon would be nice!
Well the ORAS demo had Mega Glalie and that was new
But this isn’t a demo we get to play right?
Yeah it is! We can play it in our minds 😀
Alright mind play
That’s a feature in the NX
I play you in my mind ?
You disgust me
Ayy dont be on my man moving
I’m on him already
Ay ay ay
Nobody plays me! >:(
what kind of porn do you like?
No it’s just a demonstration of the game live, I misused the term demo. So a select part of the gameplay that they will allow him to play through. So to avoid any major spoilers it will be restricted to early parts I would assume. Could be totally wrong mind you.
Idk if I see the point of them simply playing that starting demo again. When they did it at E3 it wasn’t a closed doors situation and everyone could see it happen. It would be almost useless for them to show it again, only with a different person playing it. (I realize they technically did with Masuda, but that was different lol) Anyway I think this’ll be different. I don’t know how much will exactly be revealed, but I can say that this will be certainly different from what we saw two months ago.
I wasn’t meaning that same demo, I just meant to avoid different spoilers that would be found on future islands I thought they would keep the demo to the first island maybe just a bit further on than that original demo if you get what I mean?
Well either way we haven’t seen the other side of the island so that could be fun right? lol
Going out to get some stuff at the post office and get back home in time for the stream.
We’re a little early to the party
Be back later
*flip the table* I want me new Pokemon! XD
A platypus
okay guys we’re hours away in some new info on Pokemon Sun and Moon,so what do we want in Pokemon Sun and Moon?!
A harder difficulty mode
Oh yeah! 😀
Ground/Fighting type that makes Conkeldurr look like a pansy
Oh Booyeah!
I want pre evos to the older Pokemon like Furfrou.
A water type Platypus
We’ll get nothing.
Boo to you
Pokemon always disappoints.
This disappoints?!

Thought the same about XY. And we all know how that turned out
You got me there yet I feel a comeback in this!
So it starts at 8:00 am if you’re on the West Coast?
Ash lost Kalos? As I thought, another flash in the pan, as one would might expect!
It’s like the grand order of things now, the world goes round, the sun comes up, and Ash and Pikachu never wins. Though they were close, the anime would not be the anime if Ash became a Pokemon Master, because if that happened, then the company would be out of a mascot. When they should have had new mascots just like Digimon in the first place!
Ok so I really enjoyed today’s episode of the anime but WHY DID HE LOSE. LIKE, NO.
The reason is if Ash became the Pokemon Master, then the series would’ve ended
I don’t think so, I think it would be cool to watch him explore Alola after Kalos if done right….
True, have him take a break after winning for once. Rather than going there to reflect on his failings.
Or they need to replace him with another character.
Which they should’ve done since Johto. At least with Digimon they’ve managed to do that right.
Don’t worry, Ash will and his Pikachu will be fine.
Personally I think the demo will showbthe first time you meet team skull, with themy being revealed more recently, and it’s a new part of the game to show off
ONE HOUR EVERYBODY ONE HOUR *panic and chaos*
-_-
WHAT
Ugh I have orientation… So see you later when everyone’s knows XD
come my fellow gamers if we want to get to the Pokemon Sun and Moon info,we must ride as Mighty Warriors as we are,the Gamers of the world!

I understand some but don’t trust my translating
German is my native tongue, and my english is pretty well. you can rely on me :3
Ok cause I’m taking German in school yet I’m not very good so thank you!
You chose a hard language to learn, props 🙂
Thank you
I can say “ich bin ein Mann”
Herzlichen Glückwunsch dazu! 😀
Leopold liek sausage egg
Won’t it be in English? I mean, it’s not like Nintendo would announce something to only German-speakers
The Nintendo House Party at Gamescom was always held in german in the past years. Even the Pokémon Tekken Event with Morimoto 2 hours ago. He was very good with gestures xD and had an earpiece plus translator 🙂
u_u Poor my ears then haha
Does German really sound so bad to you? xD
So, i got me an account here 🙂 Let the News begin!
The Nintendo House Party (celebration starting soon!)
Great delay bc technical issues. Gg Nintendo xD
Here we go! The Nintendo House Party just started!
So… not only Pokémon will be at the house party, but zelda and splatoon as well?
if visitors take part in all the events at the nintendo booth, they can get a prize. also, two downloadcodes for shiny xerneas and yveltal are available
Nogami-San, Splatoons director is on stage
signing a picture thats gonna get sold for a good cause
Opening a mysterious present
the “new” amiibos
Nogami directed Mii Channel, some Mario Games and now Splatoon. He’s with Nintendo for 20 years now.
The idea for Splatoon came just 2 years ago.
Community Q&A: What did you enjoy the most making Splatoon?
It was always fun to develop, but the most fun was to fight for the territory and the other is to hear what the players enjoy.
Any difficulties?
It was hard to come up with a good design of the squids.
What was it like to make up a new language for the inklings and can you speak that language?
This game needs to be understood in the whole world. so we made a new squid language. I don’t understand your language either.
Signing a Splatoon Poster for the winner of tomorrows Splatoon Competition
Goodbye, Mr. Nogami!
Looking for contestants. A puzzle game with prizes is up next.
Host saying “Oh! 2:30 are passing so fast if one has fun.” xD
NEXT UP: Zelda Fanart competition.
“Who wants to play the new Zelda?”
“WOOOOO!!”
“Me too.”
That host xD
MR. MORIMOTO IS THERE!
Opening his mysertious present…
An Anniversary-Pikachu doll!
20 years ago, pokemon red and green were released in japan. morimoto was the one who put mew in. he thought, in the future, it’ll come in handy. mew is his favorite Pokémon.
Showing an old trailer…
Foreshadowing the live demo!
showing off the 20 new pokémon we know. Morimoto being asked which of those he’d like to have in the game. he likes Alolan Exeggutor the most
He used to fight with Exeggutor before and is excited to use the new one.
MORIMOTO BROUGHT A VIDEO MESSAGE FROM JAPAN!
Masuda and Ohmori! Ohmoris first project as the only director is sun/moon after he learned from Masuda how to develop Pokemon games
Next topic: Battles. When a Pokémon reaches Lv.100, it can be further trainded with “Super-Special-Training”
Ohmoris new favorite Pokémon is Mimikkyu
Ohmori states, that Mimikkyu has a very special entrance in the game
After a Battle Royale, Masuda states, he has a surprise for all the fans!
To Morimoto: How did you come up with the idea for the battle royale?
One reason was to develop a fight system for more players to enjoy. Also, he wanted that anyone could win, not only the best player.
Any player has to take down as many pokémon as possible for points, displayed as stars.
Morimotos translator told his first attack will be a special one.
Introducing the Trainers and Pokémon in each corner!
Morimoto uses Pikachus Z Attack! “Hyper Sprint Attack” – THATS NOT VOLT HAVOC! So not every electric type has the same z move appearently…
In case Battle Royale ends with a Remís, the player with more HP wins.
Talking about the used Z Move with Morimoto. It was NORMAL TYPES Z-MOVE!
SECOND VIDEO MESSAGE FROM JAPAN!
A new explosive Pokémon is here! Tortunator!
Tortunator was introduced.
Morimoto was asked if he liked Tortunator. He answered “I like Exeggcutor.”
A CALL: A WILD POKEMON WILL SHOW UP FOR POKEMON GO!
not an event pokemon, but a lame contest, it seems…
Watch the live stream just be a extended gameplay vid of the Alola forms. Elite rustle
*rides on a horse* For Pokemon Sun and Moon info and Freedom!
I’m ridin’ on a Ponyta!
I’m ridin’ on a Rapidash!
My Ponyta’s name is Whipflash
Mudsdale yo!
I’m on my Girafarig named Jeff
So who do we think will be on ash’s alola team, out of the revealed mons?
All the starters, Pikachu, Rockruff?
Pikachu
Pikipek
Rowlet
Litten
Popplio
Maybe Rockruff
Honestly that’s pretty much everything that Ash would use
Delete this
Oh delete your face
Ash catches all three starters since in gen 3 he didn’t have them then in gen 6 he didn’t have all them
They probably have the whole first episode done somewhere
Ash is dead
That turd is immortal at this point
Starters # he has captured
Kanto- 3
Johto- 3
Hoenn- 1
Sinnoh- 2
Unova- 3
Kalos- 1
He’s NOT dead. He’s fine!
I know I want him Alive
Actually…
Ash: Pikachu, Pikipek, Litten, Popplio
Mallow: Rowlet
I honestly think she just has Fomantis and Lurantis and a Exeggecute
Or like Gardenia, have a starter in her team as well.
Somebody tell me is the stream running?
Kuz I hear and see nothing
STARTER EVOLUTIONS. GIVE EM TO US, GODDAMMIT.
I could see them starting off by saying well let’s check ourbteam, and have the middle evos of the starters there
My eyes are getting dizzy from the spinning circle
