The next batch of fresh Pokémon Sun & Moon news has been confirmed for September 6th. As usual we’re expecting a new trailer detailing a bunch of new information.
Who knows what will be revealed, could it be the evolutions for the Starter Pokémon? More Legendary Pokémon? The secret behind Rockruff’s evolution?!
The news drop will come on September 6 at 10pm JST, 3pm CEST, 4pm BST 9am EDT and 6am PDT. Stay tuned for our coverage of the drop as and when it happens!
See you then!










Is my profile pic epic
Neat! Vulpix caught in SoulSilver 🙂
Nice! I’m emulating Gold, Silver and Crystal cause I really haven’t played them in a while and I do enjoy second Gen
I suddenly feel the urge to ROM hack.
The Zilog Z80 is an interesting CPU line.
Wat the hell is that ….when this is been reveled? http://www.serebii.net/sunmoon/ghostzmove.jpg
The attack looks somewhat similar to the one Zygarde used in the latest episode
With those tentacles- I mean plants? I think so too.
Its the ghost z move shown in the direct
In the direct…..did I miss something?
All the Pokemon info is front loaded at the start of the direct, so just rewatch it.

Gengar used this Z move (no name) when Z moves were being spoken about
how could u know I didn’t see that …link?
‘Twas in the direct
So Snorlium Z evokes Snorlax’s most powerful strength
ITS ASS!!!!!!
Nukes are involved as well.
I hope a few others get select moves
But deciding who gets one is the tricky part
Where was this Sept 6th date released?
pokemon japan twitter
I have no idea what each of those times are. What’s the Pacific Time?
You have a computer look em up
In Japan it’ll be 10 pm. So for me on the east coast it’ll be 10 am. So if you take 3 hours away it’ll be 7 for you I think lol
Does anyone have a gif of Snorlax waking up in the Z move? I can only fin it on twitter, but gif don’t get easily saved from there

made one
Thank YOU!!!! Was about to try and make one myself lol
when your teacher assigns you extra HW
Are they making that look or is the student? hahaha
the student xD
Here’s a teach version:
when a kid badmouths you to your face
when you wake up to the smell of bacon
when someone taunts you with ‘What are you going to do to stop me?”
Snorlax is the ultimate triggered picture
Truly a thing of beauty! ?
ikr 😀
I’d say we will get a new Pokemon and a new regional variant eg Butterfree bug/psychic.
They should just use my Bug/Psychic Emperor Butterfly
I mean, you should just apply at Game Freak for a job as designer or something
I should but I doubt they would have me
Grubblet bug
Krystasis bug
Emproyal bug/psychic
Looks like this info in the picture below (refresh if can’t see) is becoming more and more true by the minute. Also, that ugly ass Snowman Pokemon from the 4chan Rumor that was deleted along with Tiki Pokemon, I totally believe that Rumor to be 100% confirmed. What about you all?
yea but remember leakers do tend to throw in fake info in there too,
I hope that is so. Because the stupid ass info of certain areas being restricted to day, night, and certain weather conditions, turns me off.
also we’ve seen arcanine twice in trailers and he is on the Japanese website
What’s been truly confirmed now:
No gyms, dark Rattata, no Synchro, Oricorio.
That’s not much compared to what it predicted. Plus, the dark Rattata isn’t even dark, but dark/normal. The only prediction it made that I find interesting is Oricorio.
He also predicted Ninetales (fire/fairy) and Gumshoos (fat and hairy) wrong.
also we’ve seen arcanine already
well we also saw rattata before in its normal form yet it has an alolan form soooo
“Not much” you don’t accidentally get that stuff correct. Leakers put slightly incorrect info in all the time. One of wbich being Ninetails’ typing. And Gumshoos is most certainly hairy, and it’s quite a bit plump, that’s not changing many minds.
Wouldn’t mind too much as most of that info is interesting/pretty harmless. Except the clusterf*ck that VC pokémon with old typings and stats would be. Please no. Soft retcon and move on, that’s how pokémon has always rolled.
I think this fits perfect

What is this meme and what does it meme? Isn’t that a Linking Park song? I wonder why it became so “popular” all of a sudden..
Im guessing that the starters finals will get their own z-moves
Pokemon Specific Z moves are actually a really good idea. Pokedex entries such as the one which states that Gardevoir creates a black hole could be incorporated
So the latest anime episode was nutin futts
I hope that the stupid ass rumor info of certain areas being restricted to day, night, or certain weather conditions is FAKE, because it turns me off. That’s so dumb!
honestly the list of alolan forms only got one right (barely since missing the normal type) it could still be fake as a dark type rattata is alot more likely then other types it could of gotten
one right currently*
Didn’t it also get Ninetails having a Fairy Alola Form right as well?
It got it down as Fire/Fairy, when it was actually Ice/Fairy. Same really with Alolan Rattata and future Alolan Raticate. Got the first type of Dark right but missed out on the Normal type.
So it has some accuracy to it. Plus it predicted the no gyms thing.
I think the mistakes it has is just to cover its tracks.
I still would tread carefully on all leaks, regardless
but arcanine has been seen regular already
that would be among the mistakes. It doesn’t discredit it since it kind of predicted the no gyms thing.
How I take leaks is fake until proven otherwise, and even then, until official word says otherwise, I tread carefully on the parts of the leak not confirmed yet
the leak King posted, mentions the chinese leaks. Simply this leaker could of took info from that and also added their own stuff to it.
I thought we were talking about the CHinese leaks to begin with xD sorry my bad
yea the leak with the Alolan list is not the same as the Chinese leaks. it looks like the leaker took stuff from the chinese leaks and added to their own
I think it also got Marowak wrong. It said Fire/Ground when it’s a Fire/Ghost
I don’t know why anyone would doubt the list at this point.. tbh
because its not the chinese leak. its a leak that put stuff from the Chinese leak and added in the Alolan forms.
Didn’t they mention alolan forms before we knew about alolan forms? Either way. I don’t know which list is which. But I believe them
this list popped the day the alolan forms came out actually
September 6th… The exact day I get marooned to a research center in the middle of the jungle with no internet (or at least internet reserved for the local scientists)… Brill.
Oh well, I guess to receive good things you have to give good things away 🙂 !
Don’t usually like leaks but imma be greedy this time and hope for some.
As for today’s news, I expected more but that’s coming on the 6th, so a decent batch I guess. Alolan ratata is dark type as rumours speculated, and happens to be the reason for Yungoos being brought in as IRL, which I like many others thought would be the case if indeed dark ratata materialised. That’s cool. Not sure how I feel about pokémon-specific Z-moves (basically just more contrived signature moves, which pretty much covered the concept, so there goes my praise for this idea being interesting), and how we get yet another different set of specific stones to complicate things.
As for the more broad Ninty stuff, the ports are cool for 3DS owners who don’t have a wii u I guess, but to me that’s just content I won’t get for buying the better version. Pikmin 3DS is an interesting idea, and that mario sports game is puzzling because it just seems like an underwhelming collection of 5 watered down mario sports games. Where the next mario strikers game at? Eh, at least they announced cool amiibos and some nice stuff for Zelda’s 30th.
It’s better be a good one. That’s my 21st birthday
Happy early B-Day!
You guys.. it Only said the ring doesn’t help with Synchro.. not that no sycnhro is in game at all…
I honestly believe it to still be in game and maybe just from bonding like Ash and Greninja do, no ring involved
Also I feel this confirms Water Arcanine. There have been So Many curveballs. I believe this confirms there is more to the some of the Pokemon we’ve already seen!
Also my team .. ? if I don’t like the fire pokemon.. using my charizard again.. oh and if the last leaker is real also of course.. kind of hope so
The only reason I refuse to believe Water Arcanine is because we have yet to have a Alolan form of a pokemon we’ve already seen,
I know, I referred to that in my post. So many crazy things have happened with this game already. Nothing is set in stone. We’re creating rules for a game of fantasy
Till I see a Water Arcanine or Alolan Form of a pokemon we’ve seen in-game already im going by what im thinking
Yeah… Sure..
im not saying it cant happen. its just what I think thats all
But how about this:
The leak technically said that to get the original forms of “some” Pokemon with Alola forms, you need to transfer them via Bank.
The keyword is “some”.
Could this mean we MAY see both forms of the same Pokemon in Alola?
For example, maybe Growlithe/Arcanine original can be found in the volcanic area on the map, while in one of the coastal areas, we see Growlithe/Arcanine Alolan form?
Oh Really? I missed that word… If so.. it sounds entirely plausible
hm you make a good point. but im still iffy on the subject, we will have to wait and see.
Right here, where it starts with “Transferring through Bank…”
Maybe I’m reading too much into it, or wishful thinking, but I’m so in love with the idea of Water Arcanine I can’t see straight. xD
Each side of the discussion has many valid points. it all comes down to the trailers or the actual game itself which side is gonna be correct. My mind is messed up too so its normal XD
xDDD
we gotta stick together, opinions are great but lets not lead it to a argument lol
Ikr… It sounds like a Dream. Instant placing on my team.. less it’s stats suk 🙁
Everyone is allowed to dream lol! im not trying to crush your dreams or anything heck i wanted a Alolan Cubone since thats my favorite pokemon atleast I got Marowak. I still want my Alolan Seel tho
I hope there will be atleast 2 starter evos and I would love if they announce a new difficulty system
This is from the Japanese Direct. Idk if anyone’s seen it, so I’ll leave it here! 🙂

“My Yungoos will be top percentage”
I find it quite ironic that it used to hunt Rattatas and now has become the Alola Rattata in a way :3
Youngster Joseph 😉 and his 6iv Alolan Ratatta confirmed?
Did u have the link of Japanese Direct?
Around :42
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHG8fWiWJaw
It also features the Fighting Z Move at 2:13 🙂
7.8/10 too much punches and kicks
Nice new avatar dude
Alolan meowth looks like espurr from far away
WHOS THAT POKEMON *looks like espurr*
ITS MEOWTH JUST FAR AWAY
Or
-WHO’S THAT POKEMON?!
-Espurr, duh
-Its meowth as seen from the side!
-WAT
you know whats funny if this was a leak image in june. people would be debating over the purple meowth/espurr
True! I always like when they put stuff like that in the trailers like with rockruff
Komala upsets me thats it forgettable
Yeah I keep forgetting it ;( The evo better be sick
🙁 its my favorite gen 7 pokemon
It’s pretty cute, I hope it stays that way when it evolves
its a bear so most likely not lol
no its a marsupial
That’s cuz it never got a proper English reveal.
Don’t worry, if that leak is real he will grow up into a strong dad from “Cloudy with a chance of meatballs” (Kudos to whoever pointed that out, I forgot) and become god
I thought that’s what it was xD
I genuinely thought it was a tyrouge until I read this.
can u leave a link
I’m so glad we don’t have to wait long for more news 🙂
ok lets say Ash-Greninja isnt in game, Could this move possibly be it a z-move for it?
https://i.ytimg.com/vi/RzsulAjB2F8/maxresdefault.jpg
Unfortunately I’m quite certain they’re going to pander to greninja with this special zmove. Expect something for charizard and mewtwo as well..
I dont mind! this will look so cool it game! Charizard idk what they could do
Ive said this before but the pandering kinda takes away some of the magic of the game and pulls me out a bit
Maybe with Charizard they could reference its seismic toss from the anime
Jumps up into the sky slams down like a meteor lol
Yeah that might be cool
or what it does in smash bros trailer
Its not a Z-move, already ruled out when Sycamore says Ash-Greninja is a transformation similar to Mega called Bond Phenomenon.
I never said it was z-move im saying if ash-greninja isnt in game could the move he used be greninja signature z-move
That doesn’t prove anything.. I watched. It could get a better name like sychro or whatever. Also that name doesn’t mean anything about the move
but i wasnt talking about the transformation just the move 🙁
BOND PHENOMENON?! BOND PHENOME….. IM DONE
So who passed up the chance to call Snorlax’s Z-Move Gluteus Maximus
should of been
Wake me up inside
Cant wake up
Wait of what I saw (just got back from school) Alolan Raticate is not here? I love Alolan Rattata and Yay if by get game early means special code for Munchlax thank you pre order!!!!!
Alolan Raticate is Fire/Ground.
What but… Are you being sarcastic?
It hasn’t been shown yet 🙂
I guess we know one thing on the 6 that will appear Alolan Raticate and good lord Snorelax is boss!!!
Who loves Salandit here too? (I love him :33)
Love the concept, not too enamoured with the execution (mainly because I would have designed it differently). I wanted a newt with a silly wide newt head, not a lizard with a garbage bag/balaclava crocodile head . Still, the design is still well thought out (especially the fire-gland on the tail and it’s cool shape), and having a new salamander is better than nothing, so still quite fond of it!
Better start Air Ballooning that thing
One Earthquake and itsdonw
Yhap, thats the bad part, but I will make it work in competitive.
It’s alright, most earthquake users will probably die to a HP Grass anyway.
You mean, a Dragon that is a coconut?
Coconut Dragon is OP
Meh non stab will not be a one hit KO unless like massive sp atk
And that means nothing for Garchomp or Hippowdon
So you’re saying that a non-stab Hp Grass won’t kill a Earthquake user?
What about one with terrible Special Defense and 4 times weakness to it…
Golem, am I rite?
STURDY BIIIIIIIIIITCH
Endures with one HP then activates Weakness Policy and slaughters with Rock Slide/or Rock Blast
I thought you knew where I was going at, but nevermind, don’t need anymore salt today
And than there is the one guy with the Protean Greninja with Water Shuriken XD
I like it. I can’t wait to see its evo
