[UPD] Pokémon Sun & Moon News Confirmed for September 14th

The next batch of Pokémon Sun & Moon news has been confirmed for September 14th! As usual we’re expecting another brand new trailer that will most likely lineup with whatever new info we get in this month’s CoroCoro (which could leak as early as the 9th).

At this point it’s all up in in the air on what we could get: Starter evolutions? More Ultra Beasts? The secret behind Rockruff’s evolution? Gary Oak’s Alolan form? Another evil organization?

Either way, the news drop will happen on September 14th at 10PM JST – which is 6AM PST, 9AM EST, 2pm BST, and 11pm AEST! So stay tuned because we’ll be sure to be here to cover it the moment it drops!

UPD: In addition to this, TV Tokyo has confirmed that a big announcement will air alongside next week’s anime episode. It’s unknown what the announcement will bring but we’ll update as and when it happens!

  1. Tbh I don’t think we’ll get the starter evolutions until October, but I think it’s damn time we see Rockruff’s so we can see if these leaks saying it has a split evolution is real lol

    • Whatever we get on the 14th will most likely be the same as what we get in CoroCoro.

      CoroCoro is always released the 15th of each month, but we can always expect leaks starting from the 9th of each month.

  2. Honestly, getting the Starter Pokemon Middle Stages wouldn’t be too much of a stretch, considering XY’s Middle Stages were shown in the October issue of Corocoro, which did release right around this time.

    Plus, it’s a little strange that we’ve gotten so much crazy new info, but one of the biggest and most desired bits of news has gone unannounced still. (That being the Middle stages of the starters.)

  3. I really hope they reveal the starter final evolutions and their secrets before the game is released. I want to know if I can still use litten or not. right now I can’t choose litten.

    • Same bro. If kitten is fighting, it’s a no go for me. Only because I won’t be able to fathom why game freak would make a 4th fire/fighting starter when there’s 16 other possible combinations for dual typing. But if litten does [and please god let this be true] become dark type then I’ll love it forever and we will live a happy life

      • even if it isn’t, the design just screams “might as well be fire/fighting” ive always used the grass starter in every game and none of them have ever disappointed in the design department but damn did that litten evo ruin it for me.

  4. Has anybody ever noticed, that behind the Sundial in Anistar City are a group of islands and an ocean, but that doesn’t make sense at all because Anistar City isn’t on a coastline or near the ocean on the Kalos map. Its located near mountains.

          • The problem with comparing real world maps to in game maps is that because the games are traditionally tile based they always locked the game to a single north-facing view so the in game map never seems to match up with the art version 😛

            But yeah, they’re probably in the river.

          • I mean, I will admit, a lot of the locations in XY had me confused in the beginning, especially with the images no longer being locked in a consistently north-facing position.
            Coumarine City still confuses me sometimes.

          • I must admit, splitting a city in two was a weird idea.
            But to be honest I never revisited Coumarine, so I kind of forgot about it 😛

  5. I was leaning on more towards Moon before but I don’t really like playing the games during the night (I even change my 3DS clock so it’s always sunny). I just hope Sun has the exclusives I want. I need the whole pokedex to leak already so I can make my team!

  6. Would it be possible that Sugimori/pokemon designers are actually redesigning the final evolutions of Litten Popplio and Rowlet? I mean Sugimori blocked several people on twitter who sent him leaks of the final evolutions – and tbh i wouldn’t be too upset if they did redesign them…

  7. The next news update will show Rockruff’s evolution, a few new Pokemon, covering a few new characters, and potentially starter evolutions. I feel like we will see the evolutions in September!

      • not when you lose all the time and feel like a worthless failure
        i nearly had these guys but like always landorus is bulky and Slowbro is fucking impossible to kill once it megas and uses calm mind because they spam slack off until you miss or the attack weakens

        then on the next i could’ve had a clean Char y kill with Breloom but rock tomb misses and roosts

  8. How’s everyone gonna feel if Sun and Moon have a small amount of Pokemon like XY but has a great story do y’all think that’ll make up for it????

    Reply
    • THAT WOULD PISS ME OFF
      I want a huge selection of absolutely new Pokemon and i don’t mean those alolan shits because all of them are just reskins of old Pokemon to avoid making new ones
      i barely like any of the new ones and if they just flood the dex with Alolan Forms then there’s nothing i can use that i want

      Reply
    • Honestly it wouldn’t bother me. I didn’t mind the small amount of Pokemon in XY. What bothered me was the empty world they put them in. Sun and Moon seem to be teeming with all kinds of tings so I don’t think that’ll be a problem lol

      Reply
    • I’m hoping for a few more than xy. Gen 6 just felt so short and easy, and there are so many type combos that haven’t been explored yet…

      Reply
    • I’m glad ppl are with me I hope it’s a good story but I fell in love with Pokemon well for the Pokemon and how they come up with new ones each gen

  9. What if they reveal a Marlin or swordfish Pokemon or a hula skirt Pokemon to go with the old but new Pokemon released like a long time ago, Comfey?

        • I personally don’t believe it’s made from specific parts of other Pokemon and I’m shocked that so many fans are reaching to make these connections… I’ve heard everything from vaporeon to poplio to arceus to dialga to skatmory, rowlett, dusclops and yanmega. Aside from the fact that this is NOT how dna works (read: you don’t just mix up Dna and get specific body parts from the original strand) , how would the creators of Type Null ever get the Dna of fucking Arceus?? He’s more of like a man made mutant creature. A hodgebodge of creatures.
