[NEW] Pokémon Sun & Moon Demo Leaks New Pokémon & More

The article below contains spoilers for Pokémon Sun & Moon.

We have chosen not to publish any images obtained from the demo version and as such the information below is a text rundown of what has been uncovered. The comment section of this article will also contain spoilers.

The demo version of Pokémon Sun & Moon is currently live in some regions and some avid trainers have gotten to work uncovering everything the demo has to offer.

It seems that lessons haven’t been learned from Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire and the demo files contain information on some currently unannounced Pokémon and over information. It’s unknown if the demo contains files for all new Pokémon in the games, though at this point it seems almost definite.

Leaked Information

Alolan Forms

The demo contains files confirming the existence of many more Alolan Pokémon:

  • Geodude, Graveler and Golem
  • Diglett and Dugtrio
  • Persian

New Pokémon & Ultra Beasts

  • There are at least five new Ultra Beasts, bringing the total to 8
  • The leaked Starter Pokémon evolutions are real
  • Pikipek appears to evolve into a toucan Pokémon in it’s final stage
  • Crabrawler, Wimpod, Morelull and Salandit all receive evolutions
  • Solgaleo and Lunala both have a pre evolution/lesser form
  • A new Pokémon that appears to be based on an anchor
  • A new Pokémon and it’s evolution that were previously leaked by an Amazon listing for the upcoming Sun & Moon TCG expansion
  • Another two Pokémon evolution line that appears to be part Bug type
  • Marshadow is a real Pokémon, but doesn’t look anything like Solgaleo or Lunala
  • Magearna has a form that looks more like a traditional Poké Ball
  • Ash Pikachu is in the game and appears to be able to wear Ash’s hat from each region of the anime
  • [NEW] The Pokémon models found within the demo are only from Pokémon found in the Alola Pokédex

[NEW] Pokémon Moves

  • It seems there are a total of 719 moves in the games, by comparison Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire had 621
  • 3 of these new moves appear to be taught via TM
  • 29 of the new moves are Z-Moves (18 Z-Moves for each type and 11 special Z-Moves)
  • HMs no longer exist and are not available as a regular TM

[NEW] Items

  • There are 920 items present in the demo, 58 of which are related to Z-Moves
  • A new medicinal item similar to Lava Cookie that cures all
  • A new battle item with held effect (like Dire Hit)
  • At least 6 new holdable items with effects
  • A Key Item that is likely used to change Zygarde forms
  • 3 items that are used to change forms
  • Bikes and Travel Trunks (an unused key item) are not in the demo/games
  • The Strange Souvenir item data appears unchanged in the games
  • 1 new type of Poké Ball
    • It appears the new ball cannot be bought or sold

We will update with further details if and when they come.

REMEMBER: This information is currently unannounced and has been leaked from the demo. Please respect the wishes of others and mark your spoilers correctly.

  2. How fucking pathetic. This game is seriously babying us.
    Only 72 new Pokemon introduced. JUST LIKE X AND FUCKING Y.
    All the ones not revealed from before look like children made them.
    Same with the rest of the Alolan Forms and Ultra Beasts. Yuck.
    And Game Freak DID NOT LEARN THEIR FUCKING LESSON FROM ORAS!

  3. Im am back from work and have had time to see all the new babies!!! And I can honestly say this gen has some solid pokemon, I never expected Morelulls evo to become my fav but girl it has! The other UB’s look so amazing and while I was not fond of Tapu Koko at first it has grown on me and the other Tapu’s are great too. Im not even mad at the little amount of pokemon. My one complaint is Alolan Persian, its head is too big for me.

  4. This is why I hate Datamining. I always rush to judgment. Sorry for all my screaming.

    I admit that it’ll take time for me to get used to these new Evolutions.
    Salandit’s passes.
    So does Morelull’s.
    And Pikipek’s too. I love that line. Although going from Woodpecker to Toucan is weird. Unless they are somehow related?
    The two stage spider looking line is… interesting. I can’t really say more.
    Same with Wimpod’s evolution. I don’t particularly hate it, but it’s not my favorite.

  6. So looks like my new team is going to be Goodra, Wimpod Evo, Golurk, Kommo-O, Toxicroak, and Mawile/Alolan Exeggutor/alolan marowak. I love that this game just gave me 2 new favorite pokemon and 2 awesome new forms.

  7. My favourite thing from the demo is that, if you catch a pokemon with a full team, you can choose to release it. Now this may be demo only, but I’m hoping it carries to the main game, and you can choose to put it in your team after catching instead of going back to the PC.

  8. Its a shame that were not getting 100 new pokemon this game, but atleast the stuff we are getting is cool. I love the yeti crab, and the anchor. I am sure they have some stuff hidden that hasn’t been data-mined yet. Though I am disappoint that there wasn’t anymore alolan forms than what there is. I was expecting 20 to 30 alolan forms, but I am happy that alolan Golem exist. I am a little salty about no alolan Onix or Alolan machamp. Other than that I think this stuff should be fine. I guess we may have to lower or expectations.
