Contrary to popular predictions based on datamined information, Croagunk has been announced as the new fighter joining Pokkén Tournament’s roster. The game update will be coming to Japanese arcades on November 10th, with no details yet about Wii U release. Several characters have yet to debut on the console version as of writing.
We’ll update the post with a high-resolution trailer and more screenshots as they come.
What do you think? Toxicroak could have been so much better…
That frog is such a troll.. XD
Is it bad the conversation has detailed from the article so much I didn’t get what you were saying? XD
It just means we didn’t want to talk about boring stuff none of us will ever get to play. 😛
If you watch the video you’ll get what I mean.
I only just commented on it though, because I looked at the actual article AFTER checking out the comments.. XD
I’m split between choosing a type I like more that is super weak (for the gym leader thing), versus a type that I don’t like as much but will be much stronger.
Strong Pokémon. Weak Pokémon. That is only the selfish perception of people. Truly skilled trainers should try to win with their favorites.
– Plagarist, 2016
Also my favorites are a flurry of different types lol
ok karen
I want to see a Pokemon episode where a mother Primarina and her pup are being targeted by Team Skull or the Aether Foundation (with the pretense of wanting to help save the pup), and the mother goes ballistic and a massive underwater/near the beach brawl ensues between multiple Skull/Aether Pokemon versus a pissed off mother protecting her pup. I just see Primarina as a docile and jolly creature until one of its own is being threatened or it feels itself intimidated.
Idk Primarina is pretty hardcore lol

Preferably with fight scenes and choreography done by the people behind Legend of Korra with Pokemon Generations animation quality, and written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki.
Now I have a different issue. If I choose a certain type, I’m banking on the only pokemon from the alola region of that type being good. xD
What Pokemon are we talking about?
Salandit evo
I’ve decided against that type now anyway though lol.
I know looks aren’t everything, but I’d say it looks like a decent pic. Then again we don’t know it’s move pool or stats lol
In preparation for my Emerald run, is Sceptile very fun to use as a Pokemon during normal gameplay? I’ve never really used it (sadly), and I’m just curious.
It’s my favorite starter of the gen
Same lol
Minor complaint: it doesn’t get any good moves until halfway in the twenties.
Oh so like Greninja, it doesn’t get a lot of good moves till later on
Yeah, but when it does, it’s amazing (like greninja)
K thanks
I used it the most back in Emerald, I believe.
Y I can’t see these pause in the trailer?…..I am not sure about Primarina though but the others 2 when? http://is.4chan.org/vp/1478018791800.png
Those are the sprites that show up when you get them in the Dex, not battle stances their models usually assume
Aha.
Don’t know if any other artists feel this way, but I get way more attached to a character when I draw them and I’m drawing Tsareena right now.
Tsareena or Lurantis… the war has been resparked…
Team Tsareena !
Flip a coin and see which one you get if you like them equally.
I’ll probably decide by the 18th. I’m leaning to Tsareena
Then be my guest and go ahead. I have Decidueye as a grass type, so I don’t have the Grass Problem
Shiny Lurantis beats Shiny Tsarenna 😀
Lurantis.
Not gonna sugar coat it, Tsareena is ugly.
I love Tsareena’s design honestly
I hate it, they should’ve just given it Dazzling instead of *mockingily* QuEeNlY MaGiSty
Dazzling is based off of dazzle camouflage, which Tsareena doesn’t have
It looks. . . off. It’s hard to pinpoint exactly what I dislike about it TBH.
But I do resent it a little for having the only three stage non-archetype evo.
Try to draw Morelull evo whaha.
I like both, but Lurantis is way more fabulous, so I have to go with that one.
Lurantis
because half our teams would be the same and my divas couldn’t handle thatbecause tbh rn it needs more loveOh yeah speaking of which for your team, you can use that Salandit Evolution if you wanted to
You honestly have no idea how happy I was when I saw that! 😮
I bet XD
Can’t really put a finger on it, but something about Tsareena’s design bothers me (I guess mostly because I think it’s prevos are so cute and then we get this arrogant looking thing..)
Also this:

I felt like the Alola trio reminded of certain people and I finally figured out who:
– Primarina = Sakura
– Incineroar = Naruto
– Decidueye = Sasuke
Lol Figures… I’d like him that were true.
I can see that lol
Damn you might be on to something here…
I want Red’s hat so bad. Get rid of the flat bill, make it a comfy, kaki-material ball cap, fade the red a bit and BAM. One sexy hat.
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/7003e05dd432d778c4a64597afb9c0bbafd5eaef48af184905fc1f644fd0b1a0.png
I hope they give us all the clothing of the past protags, that’d be one great way to commemmorate all generations (plus it’d be super fun to dress up as past protags).
Yea definitely. But like I meant irl. lol
But I would really like that. Especially May’s Emerald outfit and Dawn’s Platinum outfits.
What if you unlock it after defeating each of them?
I just finished Pikmin 1 and I’m debating if I should even bother with Pikmin 2 or buy Animal Crossing WW on EShop
I would play Pikmin 2.
Pikmin 2 and then Pikmin 3
That’ll get boring
I rather start a new file and drive the Pikmin species to extinction and wait out every day with only one ship part
Just for giggles
Hi guys, been avoiding the comments section since the demo was datamined…
so its good to know its going to be a little bit easier to avoid spoilers… good to know….
can you guys help me?
I have a 3dsxl brought in atlanta (miss you usa!!!) and it came with a 4gb sd card 😐
Now im going to buy 16gb one 🙂
Thats where it comes your help…
Is it safe to buy a micro sd with adapter?
I managed to buy the nintendo 100 dolars shop card and im striving to pre download it sun(want the physical copy of moon) and maybe dragon quest 7or 8 or mario kart/party…..i dont quite know yet…
any advices?
I’ve posted this on the other article but i guess is empty now 🙂
It is safe to use a micro sd with an adapter, that’s what I’m using (at least I think so). There’s no reason it wouldn’t work IMO.
What a cutie pie https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/13f8730bdacb7cc3b0538c5448b0b6b2ead3d163b355e5d4b38e4942aebe2b7b.jpg
Quick stab it in the belly!!!
D: Never!
Lucky!
Not luck! It’s from Alder after beating the White Treehollow in White 2.
*Skill!
I used a hacked Sableye with Wonderguard back then XD
Lol well considering I beat that with a normal playthrough team that was just leveled up pretty well… I don’t think I can claim skill XD But I’ll take the compliment none-the-less
Did you still wanna battle
Yea I’m down. But only a best of three in Doubles, assuming you’re still down
Yeah!
Need my FC again
Need mine? 3909-8790-1946
I added you alrwady
Ok then I need yours
1478-7368-8899
Added. In game name is Alph
You’re good! I guess this last one will decide hahah!
That was fun! But why only 2 Pokémon in that battle?
Oooops I forgot to select four Pokémon lol. Anyways GG!
We can play one more!
I already exited lol but we can battle again another day! My team was just random and I didn’t EV train them at all. Lol
Ah oh well. But hey that was really fun! I got pretty hyped when you Mega evolved Pidgeot. I’ve never seen anyone use it.
Haha I love it! I had a mega salamence but it’s too broken to use but now we have FC and can battle/trade whenever ! When Gen7 comes around I’m gonna actually train my pokes! This gen I was more worried about completing the pokedex.
Yea feel that. I wanna try out VGC with gen 7.
I was heart broken when Mega Pidgeot survived that Return. xD
Haha I want to as well! That pidgeot is resilient!
Can anyone link me to the full list of pokemon in the game (not just the new ones) please?
nvm
The struggles of too many good Grass types…
I think I settled on Tsareena though
http://t01.deviantart.net/9LlrsL75I5SeavKF1W164bA9EV4=/fit-in/700×350/filters:fixed_height(100,100):origin()/pre02/cf26/th/pre/f/2016/289/f/c/__tsareena___by_meb90-dal5ygw.png
It has that Queenly Majesty I guess 😛
You chose wrong.
Again.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
*shakes head slowly*
but like
http://t11.deviantart.net/8xbGGLT3xJqxYbcM6TQ_UOtUHT0=/fit-in/700×350/filters:fixed_height(100,100):origin()/pre10/23fd/th/pre/i/2016/290/c/e/tsareena_pokemon_sun_pokemon_moon_alola_by_tatanrg-daldiju.jpg
(side note: the 3rd google result for Tsareena is a surprisingly well made pixel art gif on it with big tits so there is that)
I don’t see why it’s such so prominent among a. . . certain community.
cuz she thicc
Eh, I don’t see it appealing, it just looks like I peeled an orange.
Long eyelashes, long hair, feminine, its proportions, skirt thing, and dem legs is why… people like it so much
The proportions seem too off for it to appeal to me that way. xD
I think that is kinda why I have a hard time choosing between it and Lurantis actually. It looks better in game though
Don’t let me inf- *cough*LURANTIS*cough* -luence you.
:3
SHOOT AS SOON AS I THINK IVE MADE A CHOICE I KEEP GOING BACK
maybe ill just use both for a while then decide on one after I catch my last mon
Watch: you’ll end up using Decidueye instead somehow.
http://pre06.deviantart.net/7907/th/pre/f/2016/301/0/0/003c89025da5c1c0b590579dc20b3910-dacb6zd.png
yeah that ain’t happening
Unless Primarina gets mysteriously removed from the game for some reason.
Ithsme I’m not using Decidueye
girl better have good stats or i going to throw hands
I bet she is going to have a pretty good move set at least. Blaze Kick 😛
It better for taking up the only spot for a non-archetype three stage.
true. most three stages are good so there is hope
And a fat ass
that too
It’s bound to happen so why fight it
I’m just waiting for them pervos to draw a really pear shaped ssbbw pic of Olivia
Already drew about 70 lewd pictures
Who cares, nothing matters anymore, things aren’t going to get better and the world is going to shit
I’m fighting to keep it together but it’s a very lackluster attempt
.-.
things never mattered though. The sun is going to engulf the Earth and the rest of the solar system in a few million years so why not enjoy it? Why not do what you love? And like, the world always has its ups and downs. That’s just how it goes.
I knew I should’ve chosen moon!
Think again
https://i.ytimg.com/vi/7p_whYnigKU/maxresdefault.jpg
That took a sharp turn.
Uggghhhh, type decision is sooo hard.
my main problem forming a team for the main game
I’m talking about for the pokejungle league but yeah same principle.
I always base mine like this:
Physical Attackers: Fire, Fighting, Dragon, Dark
Special Attackers: Fairy, Ghost, Psychic, Ice
Defensive: Water, Steel, Poison
I’d say fire is more mixed than physical.
the main reason fire is physical for me is because you cannot burn it, so is the most viable physical type
That makes sense.
There’s a pokejungle league!?
Soon there will be! Go on the forums to see all the information (but basically there are 8 gym leaders you can battle for a title).
Yep! We had a tournament that just finished and the winners become gym leaders! (And I am your fairy queen now so bow down to me)
Part of the issue is that I thought I had it figured out, but then I realized that we won’t be able to get certain pokemon for months.
Melomori replied and chose Steel
On one hand, he didn’t take a type I want, but on the other hand, my choice is still as difficult. xD The regional dex is screwing me up.
What choices are you debating?
Oh, flying, bug, ice, and poison. xD
flying and bug seems the best options but if you dont want to worry about stealth rock, go poison
Just try to think about it from a long term perspective. IN two month’s we’ll have access to every pokemon, and then you’ll have your ideal team.
Alright, I’ll just look at the national dex. It won’t be too long without anyway.
Anyone wanna battle me? FC 1478-7368-8899
I feel like most people don’t really battle anymore this late in the generation.
I’ve heard people will start up again (including myself) with gen 7.
Yeah that’s true. I’m just trying to pass the time lol
I just realized that this sounds like music that could be from kirby: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Wj2NUVygCjE
Close enough lol
Every trial better have a unique theme
I hope so. I hope they’re type themed like the gyms in BW2!

http://billiam-x.deviantart.com/art/Pokemon-Sun-and-Moon-Primarina-Gijinka-642650262
I love this stuff. So creative and pretty!
All I need is a really high def pic of a badass Incineroar so I can finally play the music it deserves
https://youtu.be/Mll2EwvxnrM
Might as well post this here as well.
—————–
Here are the gym leaders along with typings:
PercyEspeon – Psychic
TheKecleonBandit – Normal
Armageddon16 – Dark
SilverRiolu/StarStorm – Fairy
Wes – Ghost
MelloMori – Steel
Poekoko – Water
Ithsme – Flying
Wooo!! This tournament was super fun! Really excited!
Also finally… a dark leader!
Only in the fan’s dreams . . .
It would’ve been funny if I would’ve banned that typing lol
Don’t ban Dark! We have cookies!
Rooting for you, Star! Though I didn’t know you guys did tournaments. Lol
The tournament is over lol, there’s not much to root for anymore
Ohh. XD I don’t know what’s going on.
We did a tournament to choose types of the qualifiers, and now in S/M, we’ll be taking challengers.
Ahhh, I see.
Make sure you battle me once this gets fully set up!
I’ll have to read the forums, I suppose! Lol
Too bad it’s not canon
One day Earthen….
one day
I hate u
That escalated quickly.
But Shady, I don’t think you even did a single battle. You signed up right?
He didn’t own a 3ds.
then why did he sign up? Why is he angry?
He wanted us to host the league from showdown, and the others and I didn’t want to do that. I never got the impression he was angry until now.
That’s not reason I didn’t think u talking about PJ tournament…..I thought u made this for fun.
Oh. It is for fun though, you can challenge us in SM.
I am struggling to buy my 3ds ……..is not available in my country and the closer country by it’s price the triple.
That sucks. 🙁 Good luck.
Well, at least here we actually have a Dark type leader!!!
I forgot how much I hate the Lumiose badlands :^)
I forgot how much I hate the unsolved mysteries.
Now THAT makes me really mad. Why did they even make multiple power plants
That, the scary house, the sundial, etc. would’ve had great stories behind them!
God, Kalos blows
If only we travelled back in SM for closure.
It’d be nice
I would travel back for VIVA LA REVOLUTION!
If it was gen 4 it would have all had great backstories and side quests
Ok I think West Kalos the worst area in any pokemon game
I liked east kalos the most.
Central Kalos was the best for me
I hated all of Kalos. :/ It was the one pokemon game I only restarted once and instantly regretted lol
Yeah whenever I want to restart it I think twice because it’s so hard to get through. I only recently restarted it again so o can complete the dex on my OR version and I was dying throughout the whole gameplay lol
Lol I think I got to the mansion and gave up. XD
The only parts of Kalos that I like are Reflection Cave and Shalour City
So if you had to make a team, just an over all team of your favorites that would be your team across all regions, what would it be?
Primarina
Lopunny
Gothitelle
Lunaala
Tsareena/Lurantis
Mimikyu
Incineroar
Sableye
Slowking
Tangrowth
Gallade
Aegislash
I’m trying so hard not to go complete Dark and Ghost lol
Slowking doesn’t get enough love! It shoulda got a mega!
Yeah, but hopefully not the design direction that Slowbro got. That would be terrifying lol
Well this is hard because I got so many favorites, yet if I narrowed it down:
Infernape
Charizard (Mega Y)
Solgaleo
Heracross (Mega)
Kingdra
Lycanroc (Day)
I have never used Infernape. Lol I don’t know why I don’t like it. It’s weird, really.
It’s just a starter I used in Pearl and it was amazing. Also, it really fits me as a person I think.
Probably the best of the fire/fighting starters, imo. Also it’s really cool in the anime when Ash had his awesome sinnoh team
Especially when it had that Blaze
I just don’t like it. I have no reason and it’s really strange. Infernape during the 8th gym battle was terrifying iirc.
You should try using one. That’s generally what I do if I don’t like a pokemon.
Volcarona
Honchkrow
Magnezone
Garchomp
Milotic
Decidueye
I’m pretty content with this team actually, although I could maybe do a different water pokemon over milotic..like maybe tentacruel
i am the four sinnoh pokemon in this game because gen 4 rocks
Gen 4 was best gen
Feraligatr
Decidueye
Jolteon
Staraptor
Arcanine
Flygon
Feraligatr love! Woot!
*Highfives* heck yea! My favorite Mon of all time!! ^ ^
I think about this a lot and my team always changes but the one I came up with last night is this
Chesnaught
Sylveon
Arcanine
(These are my three favorite Pokémon so they’d always be on my team)
Dragonite
Decidueye
Tyranitar/Tyrantrum
I never would have guessed you like Chesnaught! *gasps* lol 😛
Shocker right?! Lol Chespin is my actually fav tho, obvs. But I honestly love so many Pokémon. It’s hard to narrow! But I always have chestnaught Sylveon and arcanine!
Chesnaught is awesome. I just wish it was a steel type instead of fighting lol
That would have been so cool! Or even dark I could def see it as a dark type
When every one was disappointed with how Chesnaught looked I was like “I love it, but… fighting, really?”
I don’t get the chespin line hate. Like I love the whole line but everyone likes Delphox and Greninja and one like
I hate them lol
Well, I love frogs so I love Greninja, but I get why people it. Delphox is just… no. It would look amazing if they took a razor to its ear hair. Lol
Greninja tongue scarf bothered me so much.
Yeah, at first I really hated, but I got used to it… enough to buy this for myself XD https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c1a31f373dcb880ee0a1e9832c85f9419690d70eb59d9870c220e3c5c556f696.jpg
Aw so cute! I had a chespin one but my ex stole it when we broke up to be an asshole. He didn’t even like Pokémon either
Wow… what a jerkwad. You don’t steal a man’s favorite Pokémon.
I wanted to go all Hugh on him lol.
No one would blame you.
I thought Chestnaught was a little awkward looking. Take his shell away and his body is gangly and weird. But I think his line is the best of the Kalos starters sans Ash-Greninja.
Togekiss
Decidueye
Ampharos
Zangoose
Arcanine
Staraptor
Ooooh very nice team!
Mega Charizard X
Empoleon
Serperior
Vanilluxe
Palossand
Alolan Raichu
Damn that was really fudging hard lol
Right!? Lol
Really liking the 6 I chose though. Now I wanna make a team of those 6 xD
I wonder if Alola Raichu will be able to finally surpass pikachu.
It’s so adorable. I want a Pikachu’a Vacation style short starring a Raichu, Dedenne, and Alolan Raichu lol
I love using Sugimori’s art when envisioning my teams. xD
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/261b4ce85f0a5754ae82b068c3466b44685601efa86711ec6825ce224f55ad9f.jpg
Serperior! <3
So elegant. Contrary Leave Storm destroys all!
It’s such a shame that Sugimori stopped doing the official art for Sun and Moon
Oh damn. Really? Who’s been doing the art?
His disciples. The starters and others were done by Megumi Mizutami who did the ORAS Gym Leader artwork, and the legendaries were done by Yusuke Ohmura who did the Gen 5 Gym Leader artwork.
Ken Sugimori did the artwork for Zygarde’s forms, Magearna and some Alolan forms
You can also slightly tell the difference in styles, such as the newer Pokemon artwork have smoother and thicker outlines and different blended in shading when compared to Sugimori’s more hand-drawn outlines and layered shading.
Mimikyu
Tsareena
Typhlosion
Volcarona
Mega Gardevoir
Greninja
Tyranitar
Decidueye

Garchomp
Decidueye
Mamoswine
Probopass
Rhyperior
Chesnaught
Mega Swampert
My question: What are you most excited about in Sun and Moon so far? For me it’s either the region or the story.
Cat starter. Lol
Region and pokeride 🙂 That shot in the trailer where we’re fishing on Lapras by the tidal basin waterfalls is gorgeous.
I think this gen will have the best story. I think that’s why they didn’t make as many Pokémon. They’re focusing on the story because XY had such a let down in the story dept
Oh the amount of gameplay we’re getting. The Battle Tree, Aether Foundation, Trials, Pokemon League…. So hyped about it, and I hope its rewarding in the end.
Seeing my trainer behind my Pokémon. And Alolan Raichu. And Palossand.
Everyone is listing their ultimate teams and everyone has a gen 7 Pokémon in it! A testimony to how good this gen is and it’s not even out yet!
It has so many diverse yet unique Pokemon in Gen 7, which what I mean is each one sticks out. Like for Solgaleo (my favorite Gen 7 Pokemon so far), it’s design and lore makes it stand out compared to previous legendaries, which is what I love.
I totally agree. This is the only gen where there’s not a Pokémon I hate. I generally like all of them. And they put so much into the lore behind each one like never before which is so cool
Another question for today: What starter would you begin with on your Pokemon Journey? Mine’s pretty obvious because of the icon :p
Rowlet! Second choice would be Turtwig
Cool, Rowlet is one of my favorites
Decidueye is just too awesome. It’s a perfect mix of mysterious and cool
And also how it’s pretty much Green Arrow is awesome ?
I personally prefer Hawkeye 😉
Do you read comics at all per chance?
Hells yeah. If I didn’t, I’m not sure Ultron would be my favorite Marvel character lol. The movie version was disappointing.
Speaking which, you got a favorite live action Comic Book movie by chance? (Could be Marvel or DC)
I really liked Civil War a lot. Winter Soldier and Avengers 1 are great too though…let me just say that I’m extremely hyped for Doctor Strange though.
I’ve heard a lot of reviews that said it was good, so I’m hyped for DS too. And I agree, Captain America movies are pretty great.
Reading the reviews is making me even more excited. Although some sites had to go and ruin the credits scene for me… >:I But I’m seeing it in IMAX and I’ve never seen a theatrical movie in imax so I’m really looking forward to it.
IMAX is so awesome yet different. I saw a movie earlier this year in IMAX for the first time and it was not what I was expecting.
Someone told me some of the action sequences were filmed in imax for this movie, so that should be great
Haha I actually really like the movie version. Though he could have been developed a little better.
BUT have you read Matt Fraction’s run on Hawkeye? Man that was the shit. Some of my favorite comics ever.
My main problem is that he needed to have more physical feats. They didn’t make him very intimidating on that front :/ Like I wanted to see him smack Hulk around
Yeah cause you’re ultron so you’re a marvel guy by default. Ps I watched age of ultron again today!
Good movie, but not perfect. Vision is awesome though.
Charmander or a Pichu from Alola.
Definitely not chespin! Lol
Picture. Lol
Same ?
High five!
*Does High Five through internet* ?
Totodile or Cyndaquil
You really do like Johto. 😀
Johto will always be where my heart is in the Pokeverse, other regions are mere travels
Rowlet.
eeeeeehhhhh…..it’s hard to decide between Charmander or Squirtle.Both have a special place in my heart
Popplio!!
