Tonight a one hour Pokémon anime special airs in Japan and along with it some big news (their words, not ours). This could be related to the anime season covering Sun & Moon and may even reveal insight into the Alola region, but could also relate to the new Generations mini-sodes.
And the reveal is… SUN & MOON ANIME TRAILER!

Ash looks really weird… but I’ll probably get used to it.

Ash looks…. Different
During generation 1 thru 6, the art style was much smoother.
Ok so apparently the Sun and Moon series is done by a different animation studio, than the one who did XY and XYZ
People complaining about the art style should reserve judgment till the first episode imo. This is a trailer and its impossible to draw conclusion out of it.
well it just goes to show that people are awful
I mean, not really. An art style is appealing or not appealing to certain people. That’s just how it is
Turtonator is as big as Charizard?!
CATEGORY Blast Turtle Pokémon
TYPE Fire/Dragon
HEIGHT 6’07”
WEIGHT 467.4 lbs.
ABILITY Shell Armor
I didn’t pay attention to the info, the same was with Bewear, when the SuMo anime poster was revealed i was baffled xD
THE ULTRABEAST CAN SMILE REPEAT THE ULTRABEAST CAN SMILE
OH FAK!!!!
*WAR ALARM*
THIS IS NOT A DRILL I REPEAT THIS IS NOT A DRILL
How do you know that? Wait.. are you refering to Lillie? xD

I see no problem with this animation, y’all just like to complain about everything, why do westerners always focus so much on negativity, smh
You realize that people are allowed to dislike it, right? Also, your generalizations are not helping anything.
But to be honest, majority are westerners that complain. Just saying
When you generalize it usually never ends well, people just need to accept that not everyone will like something and thats ok, dont lump up a whole group of people, thats ignorant assumptions.
Not like I said everybody.
You really dont have any proof of that and Im pretty sure where you’re from has no impact on if you like or dislike a change in artstyle.
I’m american.
“y’all” is a very ‘westerner’ thing to say.
it makes it that much better 😉
I won’t lie the animation style threw me off as I’ve been used to normal Ash my entire life but it’s way too early to judge just gotta wait til the episodes drop
this anime looks terrible, absolutely disgusting. RIP the Anime.
I love that there’s a sexually ambiguous (at least as of now) Team Skull member. I wonder if they’ll appear in-game.
Two things
1: TEAM SKULL LOOKS AMAZING, I ALREADY LOVE THEM
2. Lille looks friggin adorable
Serena, Gen 7 female protag, Lillie… how many girls is Ash getting this season?!?!
Lol idk a lot?

So the trailer really confirms that Ash is really going to study!
By the way, what Ash said when Lillie said: “Dragon nest?” (did she said that, I’m not good at japanese, sorry…)

Wow this looks so different from the past seasons. Is he in highschool to learn about z moves and to become a trial captain? Because Kiawe and Sophocles are there too. Unless they’re already trial captains so they could just be learning about z moves too…
Lol
I’m not gonna judge by a 32 second trailer. Im gonna watch the first few episodes when they come out then give my opinion.
Ok
It seems like the cat’s gonna be the funny one of the starters this time. And by the poster Ash will have rowlet, which is better than popplio, but i was hoping he’d go with the fire one; it’s been a very long time.
You mean Litten cause of the way it yells
Yeah, the way it’s making faces is just like Oshawott and Piplup.
i feel like he may catch litten.. it seems like the loner that is always randomly appearing before joining ash’s team
So ash would have both, rowlet and litten? Idk, It’s been a long time since they stopped giving ash more than one starter. But i for one would love if he had the cat.
Love it! I feel they are realy pushing for the Digimon Tri viewers. Possibly even why UB were included. I wonder if Ash has aged yet, seems so. Im not exactly sure what the squiggles are though, hair?
Maybe the animation will improve over time rn. Pikachu actually has hair moving with the wind which is a step up
They’re definitely doing EVERYTHING different now. However this animation is definitely a step down from the XY series. (everything looks soft and noodly?) I might actually watch it BECAUSE it’s different though. At least it’s pretty much confirmed that you move to Alola for the schools. And man, that teacher ?
Ok so here are my thought……I think the animation style change is fine (as long as the quality keeps up) they can also go in a goofier direction for a while, but I also think that once the series gets going things need to get more serious again, especially if they introduce the UBs. the over all style seems to fit the relaxed and vacation-y feel of Alola so it doesn’t bother me that they’ve softened the lines and angles a bit. If the character acting and story telling stays the same as XY/XYZ then it should be a good adventure to watch. I don hope that they eventually move away from the whole school thing. I’m baffled by the fact that the 4 captains are part of said school. even if you could make the argument for Ash it seems weird to have them in it too. Maybe there’s some specific reason or maybe the school isn’t what it seems lol
P.S I LOVE the Bewear parts hahahaha
Ash drawing style remind me of something but I can’t remember it, I like the new animation style in general.
Not gonna lie it kind of reminds me of Steve Universe a tiny bit……maybe with something else thrown in? lol
Maybe it looks like spirited away for me.
Oh you know what, that’s what it is!! You’re right it does look like Spirited away. lol
……the feels rush through……
Also Tara Strong was in the eng dub <3
oh That’s u sunny ….nice avatar.
Thanks! I found it online and liked it so I thought it was time for a change lol
Eh, I’m sorta fine with this change. My real hope is that the English dub finally stops changing that goddamn background music! I don’t understand why they change it and I hate their generic substitute. They need to finally leave in the original background music!
That probably will never stop happening haha For whatever reason they seem to think it’s a good idea to change the music. Changing the music is fine and can actually be great as it adds more possible variety, but usually the music isn’t as good in the English dub…..lol
XYZ anime intro in dub *cringe*
Listen…….I think the English intro had promise. The lyrics weren’t bad and the music itself wasn’t too bad. It offered better imagery than past intros have in a while. It actually made you think that Ash was in some small way a badass. Where it failed was in how short it was. It really should have been at least 20 seconds longer……..then it would have felt more complete. lol
no i liked it, i just didn’t like the repetitive lyrics in a 20 second intro
That’s what I’m saying. If they had made it longer and added more original lyrics it would have been one of best intros we’ve had in a long time. I especially liked how it focused on the winning aspect and never stopping rather than the soft lines about being super duper besties and wanting to be a super star or whatever they’ve been throwing at us for a while…..ugh….lol
the intro basically telling you his a winner no matter what so he will always stand tall.
Which I actually like a lot lol
Aether has to be main baddies. I dont think the Anime has ever had the main villian team appear so early in the anime since team rocket unless they doing something different
Still in love

just because of its evolution i had redo my shiny prediction for rockruff 🙁
I wanna know their English names! Hopefully the 20th will show them!
Hey I am sorry u was right about Lana she set backward on Lapras ….I didn’t know she was fishing.
That’s okay shady 😉
Idk I like the lighter tone they’re going for. And the softer style looks great from the trailer. It’s like slice of life plus Pokemon which makes more sense since Alola is more laid back. There’s so much more room for character interaction without gyms and traveling anymore and plus we won’t have to deal with ash losing. This should have been the style of the anime to begin with. Having ash explore more of the region that’s not touched on in the games rather than replicating it’s plot. This way we’ll get to see more of the region and characters than previously possible.
