As anticipated, a new form for Lycanroc has been revealed on Japanese variety show Pokénchi!

This is the new Dusk Form that is said to be obtained in a special way and not available naturally in the wild. The reveal also confirmed that Ash’s Rockruff will evolve into the Dusk Form in this week’s episode of the Pokémon anime. Stay tuned for more info coming soon once CoroCoro leaks!










Dusk form doesn’t look too great :/ the orange is meh and the green eyes seem out of place. Glad to see old Pokes are getting new forms, though we knew about this for a while now
Good thing I chose to sleep instead, because this new form is terrible. It’s just midday but with a bad colour scheme, why couldn’t it have been more reddish like the fanart?
Also, if this is dusk, then where’s dawn?
thats what youre supposed to speculate about lol
That’s the 3DS colour palette for you.
??? What do you mean? The 3DS doesn’t need to use color pallets… it’s why X and Y and Sun and Moon shinies generally looks more unique than in previous gens. It’s because they can custom pick the color
The prblm with 3ds quality it’s kinda make the color more light ….u can compare Dusk Lycanroc color in the anime and the game.
There’s still technical limitations to the color depth, amount of colors at the same time and the shaders that can be used due to processing power, video memory… Not to forget that the screen of the 3DS isn’t of greatest quality so it doesn’t really pay off to invest a lot in programming it. That’s why 3DS colors always look a bit washed out compared to some other systems.
it’s look like shiny Lycanroc ver 2.
IM OFFICIALLY A TERRIBLE PERSON
It feels bad at first, but don’t worry you’ll get used to it.
Is this you Trump Jr.?

i refuse to watch lol
Smart choice
Dusk form? So there’ll be a Dawn form.. and the Dusk and Dawn stones were introduced in DPPt. Sinnoh confurrmed.
Of course there will be a dawn form, something has to take the form of Lunala’s wings.
When Dusk form howls, its head looks exactly like the Ultra Sun logo. Which means it’ll have a counterpart=Dawn form confirmed aaaaahhhhhhh
Things I was thinking about:
– If the dusk form takes only place at sunset then ultramoon players have to wake up at 5:00 am to evolve their rockruff (assuming usum will be set 12:00 hours apart like sm).
– The dusk form is called Twilight form in German. This could exclude a dawn form cause twilight is good both for dusk and dawn.
– There’s a possibility for another dusk/twilight form for ultramoon which remembers the ultramoon logo, takes place at dawn and rasembles midnight lycanrock but with the ultramoon logo colours.
German doesn’t have a good word for both dawn and dusk, since they are Morgendämmerung and Abenddämmerung (really long words), with Dämmerung being a close and correct translation of twilight but with a different nuance placed on it. Good chance that it will get replaced by something more fitting for both forms or another fitting name for dawn form.
Soooo I did say that I’m at least gonna try going in blind after the first major news soooo
If anyone needs me hit up the Fakémon discord server
Beware of the PJ Discord, there might be spoilers there ?
What major news has there been?
So apparently, in the movie “Ready Player One”, they took out Ultraman (who was in the book) and replaced him with the Iron Giant. Now, I don’t watch Ultraman, but this still sucks. I’m still willing to see the movie, but it’ll annoy me that they took out a character from such a niche franchise, and replace him with the Iron Giant, who doesn’t in this movie.Also, apparently the main character (I forgot his name) was overweight in the book, but isn’t in the movie, that doesn’t bother me as much, but they took out an important subplot by doing that. At least, that’s what I heard.
I don’t know if you read the book but a reward for clearing the jade gate was a supersized robot, with Wade being able to choose out of over 20 options, including the Iron Giant. He was thus canon in the books too. And Wade isn’t really overweight in the books, he changes weight a lot, being slightly normal at first, then gaining a lot of weight but when he is hiding from IOI he enables the fitness program and is of normal weight again. So both arguments are kinda bullshit complaints. 😛
Don’t forget that Warner Bros has to license each pop cult reference they don’t own, so it can be sometimes hard to get the right license. WB owns the Iron Giant franchise so it seems more fitting.
Shit. Well, I guess that’s what I get for not doing enough research. Also, how do you cut off spoilers at a certain point?
/spoiler in brackets.
So now that it’s confirmed that the new Pokémon mentioned in the reveal trailer does encompass new forms and not just more Pokémon that were not in the Alola Pokedex in SM, I am brought back to this picture. To my knowledge this still hasn’t been debunked as being credible leak. I believe it came out some time in February or March, designs of the starters themselves came were leaked a good portion of time before SM’s release as well. Thus, I feel very strongly that it is a new Alola Form of a Pokémon that we are familiar with. If I am wrong, then it is either a fake leak or it’s a leak of a Gen 8 Pokémon. Now what I want to focus this discussion on is, if it is an Alola Form, what is the original Pokémon?

That’s just some pencil sketch and taken with a potato cam, I wouldn’t put much thought behind it, easy to fake.
But wasn’tt debunked yet. Alolan Starters were easy to fake too
Yes, but those were styles already similar to the ones used for anime drawing panels, adding to their credibility. This suggest nothing for an official looking leak.

Yo Dude or Dudette,
Thanks for taking the time to post the link and finally settling that. Otherwise I may have been waiting for that Pokémon until Gen 8.
No problem! I was just looking at the “leak” and I knew I had seen that somewhere before
After sleeping on it, not only was the news not reassuring to those concerned about the games, but it’s actually one of the worst things they could’ve revealed. At a time when people are expressing concern over the game being a cash grab or a pointless rehash, an orange Lycanroc with some extra features wasn’t the way to go.
Might as well add this: I’m not complaining about Lycanroc itself, and I’m glad we’re getting news, but they just keep messing up in the marketing department with this one.
I thnk they revealed it now, because it was happening in the anime now. Maybe originally this episode was going to air in few months, after they showed what the game’s about
Then they should’ve anticipated that and revealed the basics of the game before orange doggo. Instead, they helped solidify negative first impressions many got from the reveal. A recolor with some extra fluff just gives people more of a reason to think this will be a cash grab.
Maybe it’s a bad organized campaign, like something went wrong and they couldn’t show the game basics trailer
At this point that might be, but they don’t exactly have the best record when it comes to these things.
I cant stop picturing cheetos dust covered lycanroc
Now I can’t stop imagining it XD
I’m starting to accept the weird orange more, it does look like a sunset, but then again, that leads to good nicknaming possibilities.
Idk I liked it at first then but rn im 50/50 about it
I definitely like it more than Midnight, but not as much as Midday. The rock ring on its back looks weird to me.
Wait nevermind, it doesn’t have a different rock ring. Either way, something looks off.
its probably the fluff they decided to add, it is indeed the same model as midday
It’s diffrent. It has many parts from midnight added
its still the same model tho
no it’s not
it literally has it paw back the same way midday does its the same model
http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1501989537966.jpg
It has the giant mane, the spike between ears and the giant tail. It even attacks in a diffrent way
Um sir, you realize you can edit a model to add different features
Green eyes… Cheetos… This isn’t Dusk Lycanroc, this is pothead Lycanroc!
It was only because it was appearing in the anime though. The thing they need now is a more substantial trailer.
Yo @Butter Geek, for some reason I can’t view your reply to my earlier post on Pokejungle even though I was sent an email about it. I know that we don’t know that is why I want us to speculate about what Leaked Banana is. If it’s a new Pokémon entirely, if it’s a new Alola form (which I believe it is) and what is the original Pokémon, or if the leak is just fake-most importantly why we think this way or what we base our decision off of.
Oh, I deleted it by accident, sorry! I think it’s a 2 stager, with the (pure bug) first stage being the mon on pikachu’s left and banana mon (bug/grass) being the second stage
Snow Problem. Also I need someone to tell me how to point people out/message people. I thought typing down @Butter Geek would work but I don’t see that you name highlighted in pink text.
Write @ and option for who you can at will show. @disqus_b2cCItIR0r:disqus

Thanks.
I have seen a lot of negativity about Dusk Lycanroc. Thus I hope what I have to say will mitigate some of everyone’s concerns. Dusk Lycanroc, in my opinion, is the embodiment of Ash Ketchum. When we first see Dusk Lycanroc we have a pretty positive opinion. However, as we look longer, we realize wow this kind of sucks a little. Then we start thinking of how Ash could have been like Red…I mean how Dusk Lycanroc may be waged potential. There is also the aspect of what appears to be bad marketing. Well Pokémon has pulled through before and it Ash will lose in the league again…wait…I meant that Pokémon will pull through again. Let’s face the facts and just wait until the end of the season for Zygarde to steal Dusk Lycanroc to have him guard a fencepost or something.
While these are interesting parallels, it doesn’t change the fact that the cement is drying, and the only imprint in it is an orange dog.
Mayo won the Splatfest! MAYO WON THE SPLATFEST! WITH 27% POPULARITY! I’m actually in shock but I’m extremely happy.
I don’t have Spla2n… but I ate an egg and mayo sandwitch today, so I feel like I helped the team archieve the goal
They managed to ketchup in the competition
WHAT NO
I had a feeling I shouldn’t join you, Earthen and Dicie. Mayo just tastes way too good 😛
Oooh Its doing the same thing with Splat one.
Since more Players choose Ketchup that means that have more bad players. More bad players mean they their win:lose ratio is much worse causing them to lose more
Exactly, and the same thing almost happened with Ice Cream, but not quite. Hopefully we have something a bit more 50/50 in the future. That will make things interesting. Still though, winning with 27% popularity is something to admire, even if you were Ketchup.
That runt will be slathered in her beloved condiment and flash fried!
It actually blows me away seeing the comparisons of the mid day form model and the dusk form model…. wow they really didn’t try, did they?
yeah it’s not really that different
but nonetheless i’ll use it
It’s not that bad, I think it’s cool. It’ll be better if there’s a Dawn form that is the Middnight model recoloured with elements from Midday.
It’s literally an orange midday that needs a haircut. The idea is good but the execution is straight garbage.
Also this doesn’t help the people who are still confused if there are new pokemon in this is technically a form
It has a forehead spike like Midnight
We don’t know nothing bout new mons yet so that’s normal
…. OHHHHHH nevermind then they are totally different
But it just shows how shitty the marketing is for this game that they just add to the confusion whenever they can
thats all its got, plus the red eyes when it attacks, it doesn’t stop the fact thats it the same model just edited a bit
That is my main problem, like it looks fine in the anime but they could have made it’s face and model more ferocious looking to reflect midnight as well.
Sooooo……hows everyone doin….
Pretty good, still grinding in sage. Tell me if you find a Thunder Stone somewhere.
Did you find the Water Stone? I’m still in need of Fire or Leaf Stones.
I think someone said that it was in the last town. Not sure who said and if they meant the last town as of this update or the last town in the entire map.
That was me if you mean Water Stone. It is in the Fountain. I can’t find the other stones if they are in. The item Finder seems to respond in certain areas but I can’t find anything there.
Just got over being angry because Mega Gengar ruined my team. I just wanted a bottle cap. Now Im just playing FG beating people with Falco Lucina MArth and Ganon
Wondering what I should buy during grocery shopping. Does anyone have any recipes they are willing to lend?
mehhhhhhhh
Not so great. After two months of being carefree, the school depression is starting to prematurely set in.

I think Hoenn should be “So much water!”
7.8 not enough too much water jokes
That miltank is not the worst part of johto.
Johtoh should be a Top percentage Rattata joke, because really, this kid calls you a LOT.
And BW has more dialogue than SM really, and the dialogue in both these games are by no means annoying
unless you play it a second time and you cant skip it so you have to spam A
What if it becomes “Honestly, just play USUM”?
Best case scenario
Im currently editing of midnight lycanroc to make a kinda dawn looking form what color should the eyes and body be?
Yellow/bright orange eyes, lilac body.
Eyes – Yellow
Body – Purple/lilac
Soot black coat and blood red eyes
no stop
why can’t i just get a black lycanroc

im pretty sure you just leaked Dawn form
IT would have a smaller fluff of hair and same model and same come at me bro animation
See this is why I am disappointed with Dusk form it literally kinda looks just a shiny form and nothing more
Give it the Rock ring midday has around it’s neck and it’ll be 100% accurate
Add a few elements from Midday and BAM, you just made an accurate representation of how Dawn is gonna look like
http://pre11.deviantart.net/bc91/th/pre/f/2017/015/0/8/black_lycanroc_by_justinhundley-davkzch.png
looks more like a coloring page then a color
Pretty much what I expect. Might have Middays neck fur and tail and be a bit more hunched over, but probably not that last part.
Bit bummed it is seemingly just a color change. So it’s a not so rare shiny?
And that’s why it was a horrible idea to reveal it now, of all times. This does the opposite of reassure people the game won’t be a rehashZ
*rehash.
I agree. I truly was expecting a genuine and original design. Not some alternative colored mess with a different hair style.

I want flavor blasted goldfish
i had a whole bag when i first played BOTW along with other snax
More accurate than Swift
I feel like im the only who who hates goldfish and cheeze its and the other american af cheese snacks
No I feel you. Cheesy American Snacks are disgusting. Like Cheez-its. Cheese-nips. Ugh So gross. and Goldfish are nasty too
………how can anybody not like cheese snacks
Lactose-intolerant maybe?
they are just so fucking gross
I don’t like the those “flavor blasted” goldfish, they’re trying too hard with those.
Other than that I think they’re pretty good. Especially with pretzels.
Ewww Pretzals are nasty too. Just salt and hard bread. Grosss
shit man… what do you eat then snack wise
Human flesh, along with the hopes and dreams of Zygarde
I DIDNT GET A GAME
BECAUSE HE ATE THEM
Not fruit snacks. Those make me gag Its like eating somehting sooo sweet. Ugh
Op misread the question lol. Um idk I dont really snack that much
I’m like the opposite. I eat like maybe 1 “meal” a day, and then just eat whenever I’m hungry otherwise. At least when I’m just home.
Thats unhealthy
Yeah, I’m aware. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Besides, I have the metabolism of hummingbird (just googled it), at least for now. And when the school year starts back up I’ll be forced into a schedule, ughZ
*ugh.
You, good sir, have no taste. 😛
WTF
true
But flavor blasted Lycanroc my dude
…goldfish is the god tier snac though
ritz are better
Ehh
But with the peanut butter between themm
allergic
I feel bad for you. My brother is as as well, and he doesn’t know what he’s missing.
Will he trade it for my lactose intollerance? I hate PB
Ouch, that’s even worse. I have no food allergies, but it must be exhasuting to have to keep track of what stuff you can and can’t eat. Plus milk is in a ton of stuff.
Oh, I eat everyting. I just have nnasty stomach aches after eating milk. I think it’s worth it.
D:
They definitely aren’t better for gaming though. More crumbs plus they make my hands kinda greasy. Neither are goldfish though, pretzels are the best gaming snack.
Why would you eat while gaming you get gross food all over your controller
Pour food into bowl, pour bowl into mouth. If one falls, then at least pretzels aren’t greasy.
Don’t worry, the idea of grease or food residue on a controller disgusts me enough not to get any on my hands.
What about crumbs?
There aren’t many if you’re careful.
I honestly really love this concept of something halfway between the two Lycanroc extremes. I always thought that the two barely looked related, so this ties things together for me. The orange color is just really nice as well. I just hope that the games have more than just new forms: brand-new Pokémon are highly unlikely, but maybe new UBs could sneak in there?
I agreee with you on the UBs. I’d prefer if they shift their focus to Alola forms of Johto Pokémon and Ultra Beasts in USUM.
“. . . will feature Pokemon not previously seen in Alola.”
Wording still ambiguous. As is the game, other than cheeto dog.
Dusky = Midday model with elements taken from midnight. Eyes coloured like Green Flash and fur coloured like one of the main colours of the sky during a sunset
then maybe…
Dawny = Midnight model with elements taken from midday. Eyes coloured like Blue Flash and fur coloured like one of the main colours of the sky during a sunset
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/194f4822af27565d6edd52815de7e19b76b178fb16919ecde78d34523f31b7a2.png
Updated it a little https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1f18e27ecf05570eee2e14272e35e2938a374fa7f80619340193f7fc0920abed.png
Opinions?
The second one seems more accurate, since it has midday aspects as well as a recolor.
The first one has midday aspects too. Midnight has a bigger mane and a very short tail
and the “chest hair” is more like midday’s than like midnight’s
I’m sure that the eyes are going to be yellow
Why? Green is a colour of a rare colour sun can seem to be. Just like neon blue.
Because when evolving Rockruff showed its eyes yellow for a moment and because midday already has blue eyes
But not neon blue like Blue flashes
Still blue ?
But why would he have the colour of Dawn lycan in his eyes if he was evolving into Dusk? The colour is just a reflection of the green flash
lineart is too thick so it shows imperfections
Right or wrong it’s a good draw man.
Did you mean “drawing”?
Yeah
Unpopular opinion: I don’t think we’ll see a dawn form. I think they were already scraping the bottom of the barrel with dusk, and while it’s logical, I just don’t see it.
it also probably means Ash’s Lycanroc might be the star of this gen
it’s the poster boy of USUM just like Ash-Greninja
hence why i said the star
Zoroark was still the best gen mascot
