OBLIGATORY WARNING: Why do we post rumors? Because Pokémon fans love to talk about the latest gossip and they often give us new ideas about what we’d like to see in a future game or, perhaps, what we wouldn’t want to see. This information is always explicitly marked as a rumor in the post title and should never, never, never be shared as fact. Treat it as false until proven otherwise.
Our good friend JynxClub and Pokesan (of BMGf) have alerted English fans about new information that was posted before the Nintendo Direct that announced Pokémon Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon aired on a Chinese fan forum. Remember that if you care about spoilers you may not want to read these rumors!
Without further ado, here is a translation of the post:
- Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon take place in an “alternate universe” than the one we explored in the original Sun & Moon. Chronologically, the new games take place a year after the first two.
- Alola has finally built its own Pokémon League, but the Champion is shrouded in mystery…
- There is a new organization, Rainbow, with some familiar faces in it.
- Lillie has a lot of surprises in store for us
Not too much to go on, but my curiousity has really been piqued by this alternate-universe-Alola we might get to explore!
….
Bugsy’s Scyther…
oh my god..
how did I make it out of this alive? jack jack came reeeeealy close to death
But he is Fire, burn it into oblivion.
I did for the most part but he had barely any HP left. I had to switch to Heimlich
Can you not use potions?
I could but I didn’t think of it. Plus, he was doing so much damage it felt too risky
Fury Cutter? I have fallen to it before, though only when I was under-leveled.
Well I’m playing with the rule that I can’t go into a battle with a pokemon higher than the level of the gym leader’s highest level pokemon too
Oh OK, do you still have Geodude? Because resists, though Heimlich does too, but rock is 4x so…
Yeah. I used him alot in that fight too
What was Heimlich again?
Butterfree
Ah
I kind of want to play HG again, but whenever I replay Pokemon games I always end up getting to a certain point and stopping………then I have an incomplete game and feel bad because I wasted a save file…..lol
@irvinap:disqus are you here? I can trade you the Morelull now, I bred a better one that is 31/decent/31/31/31/31 for you.
Yep just need to get home I had a cavity filled
Well if you aren’t up to it it’s OK.
No i am I got no numbing so in a few mins
damn I can’t find my wifi thing for my moms if I find it by tonight i promise i will take it off your hands
OK, it would need to be in the next 2 hours ’cause I need to sleep.

So we’re getting a number of reveals and first looks, but Nintendo keeps insisting it’s only talking about 2017 games? I’m sure we’ll see some 2018 after all, but we really can’t predict what’s going to happen.
Probably just means the main focus.
I’ll say one last thing about this topic. There must be a reason why they’re having this at all. If there weren’t any big, worthwhile surprises (even if it’s just one), why have a 25-minute broadcast separate from the Treehouse at all? I’m sticking with Animal Crossing until the bitter end this year.
DONT. GET. YOUR. HOPES. UP. 😛
They’ve been clear on this. No teases for next year. So don’t be disappointed tomorrow please.
Does “focus on 2017” mean nothing to anyone?
Last night and earlier today I was feeling kind of like I was getting sick……I wonder how much of it is me actually getting sick and how much of it is me psychologically making me sick so I have a reason to call off work for tomorrow. Nintendo is the only one of the big 3 that I will be missing which bums me out lol
Name suggestion for a male Geodude? I’m just thinking Earthen tbh, most other Ground types in the game probs aren’t gonna show up tbh
Earthen yep
You can’t evolve it can you?
I have an old DS and a copy of SS I can trade with! 😀
Oh good, I always hated not being able to evolve stuff because I couldn’t trade early on.
Same kinda tbh
Ok now what to name Paras? o.o
Paris
Sebastian? Looks a bit similar even if he’s a crab.
yeeeaa
then I can save that crab from Moana for Krabby
Hopefully it’s Shiny
YES
I’M TOO SHINNNYYYYY
The post-credits scene though XD
Best ever, like Tamatoa is too amazing

Gentle actually fits me, most of the time.
Earthens’ seems to be the opposite though. Shame there’s no indomitable rage nature.
I don’t think Gentle fits the Pokémon though, so far he’s been destroying everything XD
screaming and flailing its fists at everything
How do you feel about being a Geodude dude :p
Good luck! 🙂
I should definitely do a Nuzlocke of Platinum as well
(But I have waaayyyy too many unfinished started playthroughs and most of them at the end lolol)
Nice. one day I might do a Nuzlocke. At any rate good luck!
So I found an Abra but it teleported away… should I count that and just miss out on a pokemon or do I try again?
I say try again
Tey again
Winnie the Drowzee it is 😮
Prepare to lose half your team to Whitney https://68.media.tumblr.com/efa6b1a8245f5c888d7b448d0ad9afb0/tumblr_o0b8h9C2o31tqptlzo1_500.gif
This is goona suuuuck
I’m kinda relying on Remy the Ratata’s Rock Smash
The Geodude can probably resist most of it enough.
Im also going to get Mufasa to curse it since it can only use Roll Out on it i feel safer lowering his HP
Soo since my shift is from 2 – 6 pm (CEST) i will miss the first 10-15 minutes of the presentation. Is there any way i can rewatch this thing from the beginning without waiting for it to be over and uploaded hours later?
Alrighty i finally got my Rhyhorn so i’m officially finished adding to my team
i gave Rhy Rock Slide and Strength (i don’t understand why a little girl exchanged such a powerful TM for a common soft drink
Are you removing Graveler? Since you can’t evolve it.
sadly yes i’s always been this way
For me aswell, that’s why I never liked to use it, because i couldn’t trade it until gen 3.
Everyone is doing a playthrough once mine is gone. ;~; If only I can join you guys… Thats ok, I can shiny hunt in ORAS
Ok, just finished watching Episode 1 of Appli Monsters (the new Digimon anime).
Did Tri finish? I haven’t seen any of it.
Nope.
It’s on like the 6th movie, I believe.
Is it just movies? I thought it was a season.
It’s a series of movies split into multi part 30-minute episodes (or something like that)
5th movie
Ok, I’ve been trying to watch them, but I haven’t gotten past the first part of the 3rd(?) movie.
I’ve been enjoying them quite a bit. It really is a such a nostalgia trip. At the same time the new animation and new ideas bring a good amount of life to the characters. lol
How was it? I’m curious myself
I watched most of the Digimon animes, like up to half of Digimon Data Squad, so how does it compare to the previous series?
What series are we talking about? I didnt know there was a new one!
Same with me, I assumed Alex was talking about a new series
Digimon Universe:Appli Monsters
Oh that. I thought that was a joke lol. Idk if I want to watch more digimon. Ive only seen the first 4 (and watching tri) non of the others look good
I can totally understand, Data Squad just didn’t appeal to me the same as the previous ones. (It was still good, but it didn’t have me as invested)
I heard Fusion (or Xros Wars) was pretty good, specifically the 2nd season.I wouldn’t recommend watching the dub though if you are going to watch it.
It’s good so far.Haru annoys me though, he goes on about how he’s more of a side character than a main character a lot, and his voice just gets on my nerves (He whines a lot too). I like Gatchmon though, he’s cool.
Sounds promising, I’ll keep an eye out and potenitally watch it 🙂
Also, Haru’s has “Unnatural Anime Hair” in that he has green hair.It gives me an excuse to post this too.
so here’s a thought anybody notice the giant spike of pokemon gyms after erika?
like Koga’s all the way at 37-43 while mine are early 30s late 20s
Did you fight every trainer on cycling road? I doubt you’ll struggle against the Poison gym anyway.
Clefablew used metronome and got tackle
good job fam

Oh man that pic…….Gotta get that PlayStation triple! hahaha
AND THE BEAST IS DEFEATED!!!!
Once you Curse that thing it’s just a matter of stalling it while doing some additional damage if it Milk Drinks or Super Potions. This was the easiest fight so far!
It helps to be prepared like that. I never used a Gastly in Johto so I usually rely on Paralyzing or the slight chance of Burning it.
This is actually my first time using one which is odd because I really like Gastly. One of my favorites from Gen 1
I like it too, I think it’s because I could never evolve it fully. I did use it in a Pearl playthrough though, but I could evolve it then.
One thing. Catch a Drowzee (?) trade it for a Machop in the Golden Rod store, it knows Low Kick. It 2HKOs the Miltank.
OK finally finished Siph Co and Sabrina
word to the wise, the lift card is always on floor five then the port pad is on 3

this entire time playing i only fear 2 fights Lorelei and Blue, those Water types like Lapras and Gyarados will be the cause of so many wipes
Rock can beat both, do you have any Fighting moves for Lapras?
the only rock move i have is Rock Throw and its on Rhydon
the only other thing is Submission
But Nidoking has thunderbolt

Can you smash?
??
Super Smash brothers… Dont you play it?
Oh, yeah, I do. I mostly play Smash 3DS
Remy evolved into Raticate!

Wat the hell??……y I don’t remember that?
Remember what
I think he meant a Raticate breaking a Starmie like that.

Anything will happen in manga.
Wasn’t that a Zombie Arbok? I seem to remember a Zombie Psyduck was there.
Nope Kogas but it lived through this
… how?
As long as the small portion of head it has is still together it can regrow any part of its body says Koga in his match v.s. Agatha later in the Yellow chapter

Mega Loppsdale?
Following my Thoughts on Series on Amino, I did the grass type. I would like to know your guys thought on Grass types.
Favorite/ Least Favorite grass type Leader and Pokemon. And Just what do you think about Grass types?
Fav Gym Leader: Gardenia, her Roserade has put me in trouble countless times and her design’s not bad
Least fav: Ramos, he wasn’t all that memorable to me
Fav Pokemon: Lilligant/Roserade, top tier Grass types during playthroughs
Least fav Pokemon: Parasect/Maractus, never liked them all that much
Overall, I think they are alright, they are in the middle of the list of my fav Pokemon types
For to state my own opinion,
Grass types are probably a little bit above average In Liking. They arent Super amazing, but they all look pretty chill. Maybe its all the fan art, but if I could just chill with any type it would be grass.
Favorite Grass Leader: Erika, She has a cool Badge, and she probably is why I always feel grass types are so chill since she is always sleep.
Favorite GRass type Pokemon: Mega Sceptile. He’s just Powerful. Do I need to say more? Just look at his tail if youre confused.
Least Fave GRass Leader: Ramos. Who is he again? What’s his personality??
LEast Favorite Grass type Pokemon: Quilladin. Ew its just so awkward looking!
Fav leader: Ramos
Least fav: Gardenia (gosh damn Roserade!)
Fav mon: Torterra
Least: tied by three with Kartana, Ferrothorn, and Gourgeist
Its my second favorite type cause I love plants and green
I like how are gym leaders are reversed lolol
I never liked her Roserade
That’s my fav part about her, that her Roserade was so difficult to get pass, even with type advantage it still does a lot of damage for early game.
Almost as bad as Fantina’s Mismagius or… Elesa’s Emolga
tbh, I never thought the Mismagius was as bad as Roserade, but it was still hard too
Yea and I loved how she had a fully evolved three stage only at the second gym
Favourite Leader : Erika – I like her badge, also she is graceful and serene which I think is befitting of some grass types.
Least Favourite : Cilan – Largely because in the anime he is unbearable.
Favourite Pokemon: Venusaur line, Decidueye and Leafeon
Least Favourite Pokemon: Wormadam
I like Grass types alot. Many have cool designs. I usually have one on my team.
Ooo Leafeon is up there for me too, it has really pulled through for me in this Wonderlocke I am doing.
Nice, my one from Diamond got to level 100.
Just caught Jasmine the Nidoran Female 😀

Yeaaahh. I’ll wait for tomorrow since I have a better chance of getting something cool
