As expected, a brand new trailer for Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon was released!
The trailer highlights changes to the Alola region itself, as well as new looks for the protagonists. It also briefly shows a look at returning characters, such as the musician Ryuki.
The Japanese trailer also contains a look at the new Z-Power Ring and some new Z-Moves featured in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon. Watch it below!
[UPD] In addition to the trailer, Clangorous Soulblaze, Kommo-o’s brand new, exclusive Z-Move has been revealed at the opening ceremony of Worlds 2017! This new Z-Move can hit multiple targets, raises all of Kommo-o’s stats by one level, and requires Clanging Scales as its base move. Broken much?
You can continue to watch the official Pokémon World Championships streams here!









No water in Brooklet Hill, there looks to be a beach behind the Tide Song Hotel, Aether Paradise looks to be slightly located closer to Melemele and on the right side of the map you can see a boat heading into the sea of clouds (rf) https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/b20e8deda51bce7ad5fae12a43a0932daba1eaa6428c536426a26c18caf0ac0f.jpg

Aether is in the same exact place
That palm tree island is new!
Do you mean Exeggutor Island or PokePelago?
Nah it was there in the S/M map too. Its Poke Pelago
Dang that sucks?
What if the clouds are hiding a new place just like the ice did in BW2
new island!
wow they actually mention that Solgaleo is the beast that devours the sun
Ok two things! I was not expecting them to show anything until Worlds actually started so this makes me wonder what we get from that now. Second that part with Ryuki looks suspiciously like LT Surge’s gym HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
…Still no answers to our questions.

I dunno mine were pretty well answered
I mean the map reveal is nice…but is a bit too similar for me to really care
Basically lol But at least we finally got some good hints at what’s happening. Seeing what’s happening in Alola is WAY more than we had before. That being said I’d like it if they started introducing some characters again. I’d like to see what the titles of the characters we know of already. Like if they suddenly introduce Kiawe as a gym leader instead of a captain then that tell us huge amounts lol
Yeah, but the empty plots seem to still be there so idk if there will be gyms
Maybe not gyms in the traditional fashion. They could still exist. Maybe some are outside gyms? lol
We saw one plot. It’s a circus-like building now, maybe a gym
And we know it’s on one of the previously empty plots?
yeah
Here’s the two Alolas side by side: https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c79386ae376d8b3e05e86ee4ce96ef3212b8bcbc6502ea4fe1a3cbe29174f114.jpg

There isn’t too much that’s different from what I can see
Interesting that the map is at dusk.
But no green flash

OH SHIT
“Fight me 1v1 scrub”
“And by 1v1 I mean 6v1, because that’s fair”
SOURCE?
the website
OH
WAIT WHAT
Is that like the obligatory legendary battle of the game? But that doesn’t make much sense because the obligatory legendary battle of the game™ is usually against the box legends.
Put down a post yesterday where I theorized that Necrozma will try to absorb Solgaleo/Lunala in order to become complete again. Maybe this cutscene has something to do with that
KAY
INGAME RYUKI
TRIAL KAHILI
BOX ART
While I’m still not quite as hyped for this as I was for SM I will say seeing Alola and a little bit more of the in game stuff has gotten me a little more excited. OH I almost forgot!!!!! Anybody catch that Rockruff running behind the characters??????
Yeah, but I figured if walking with pokemon was back they would make a big huge reveal about it
Maybe they will. this seemed like a general trailer to show the whole region again. They could do a trailer where it explicitly shows it happening.
CAN SOMEBODY PLEEEEAAASSEE MAKE THE NEW MAP 1200 x 848?
WHAT IS SUN DOING?! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1acfe28e3727bd58a20e785d5ab6e73240917b5f8891de896a879e0b0353612d.png
Even the characters are hyped for USUM
Agreeed
The new art is SO goofy hahahaha that said I really do like their designs way more than the original lol
Sammmee
“OH YAY LETS JUMP TO OUR DEATHS”
It looks so weird
we need to photoshop the onto a cliff
Jump up super star
Pokemon edition
Well that wasn’t worth it…
yes it was stfu, ur never happy
People still hating like spoilt children.
They didn’t show much but it still gives us a taste of the new games.
I’ll be honest I’m hyped up.
Finally a fellow pessimist has arrived. That wasn’t good or worth it
Get over it. At least we’re starting to jump on the news train. We could have gotten nothing
Finally a fellow optimist has arrived.
Ultron 😛
same
I’ve always been on the cautious side with USUM, but this is starting to spark a fire. It’s small, but I’m willing to give it the benefit of the doubt lol
I’m with you I love This trailer!
I’m with you both! Honestly just seeing something about USUM is good enough to hype me up!
I’ve USUM fever!
I agree honestly. This trailer should’ve come out last month. This isn’t enough
They’re punishing us for all the S/M leaks, honestly this is down to us (the community)
They’re punishing us for leaks they let happen?
They didn’t allow early releases or stuff like the riddler, although demo was entirely their fault.
Punishing the many for the actions of the few.
Happened with Europe for ORAS and SuMo :v
It seems foolish and petty.
Delaying for a week or concealing info isn’t too major and will either make people less likely to support leaking or will dissuade leaks from doing it. At least in principal
So another trailer that’s incredibly vague and unhelpful.
I guess now we know it’s just a third version and not a sequel. But is there walking with Pokémon? Because you had that scene with the rockruff but then another scene without a Pokémon following you. Can you turn it off? Was that just a cute little environmental thing?
most likely the later
THEN WHY SHOW US WHEN WE HAVE OUR HOPES UP FOR WALKING WITH POKÉMON AND YOU MADE MODELS FOR IT
PokéSwitch?
I mean it’s been made obvious it’s a third version seeing as they’re not promoting it as a sequel??
… they didn’t promote it at all?? How tf was anyone supposed to know
‘Alternate story’. Not ‘sequel’. Not ‘prequel’. ‘Alternate story’, which has happened before in Pokemon.
So looking at USUM’s map, it’s possible that the two cloud clusters south east of Poni are obstructing new islands? It’d make sense of we get two new one, because Hawaii has eight islands yet one is private (could this be Aether Paradise’s basis?) and another has no permanent residents.
So excluding those two, that leaves Hawaii’s six largest islands, Hawai’i (Ula’ula), Maui (Akala), O’ahu (Melemele), and Kaua’i (Poni) and possibly two new ones based on Molokai (which would probably be named after that island’s colour, green, so it’d probably be called a variant of ‘Oma’oma’o) and Lanai (which is orange, or Alani). Although Lani may already be the basis of Exeggutor Island as Lani is’ the pineapple isle’
I’d be willing to say we can still get something else in a couple of hours. I doubt they’ll just show this trailer at Worlds. Maybe we’ll finally get a new Alolan form?
This is all from the site
“Ominous dark clouds are spreading in the sky above the Alola region, the setting of Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon. New buildings and landscapes appear that were not previously seen in Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon.”
“In Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon, a story unfolds on a grand scale, with the Legendary Pokémon Solgaleo, Lunala, and Necrozma at its center. Secrets about Necrozma and the Alola region—undisclosed in the previous games—will come to light.”
“The look of the main characters’ outfits has changed from the first trip through the Alola region—just in time for them to begin a new adventure! Choose the Pokémon that will become your partner, and set out on a journey through the world of Alola!”
Interesting.
New landscapes buildings etc i hope we get more islands!
And the story is really exciting me. I really wonder where it’s gonna take us!
:3
im buying the game no matter what if pokemon walk with us. even if the story sucks
I’m buying it regaurdless
I understand hype and need for good marketing.
Guys have a little more faith. GF are not a new company they’ve been playing this since years.
Also the less we know come November the better the experience, more surprises etc
Personally I’ve enjoyed SM as I didn’t know much about them!
“In Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon, the main character wears a Z-Ring in order to use Z-Moves. In Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon, the main character will put on a Z-Power Ring, which can use even more varieties of Z-Moves than the Z-Ring! And the games also feature new Z-Moves for certain Pokémon!”
JEEZ YA COULDA SAID THIS IN THE TRAILER M8
NEW Z-MOVES DHJDKSDLKSDLKSJHDLKSJHDLSKJDLKSJHDLKSJDLWSJNDLKJ
Skajajaja
Yet Totem Lurantis was revealed hidden on the main site

wow, that’s impressive
I try
New exclusive Z-moves probably for Dusk form, Mimikyu and maybe the starters?
I hope the official artwork means that our characters will have a few more facial expressions in the new game. Looking forward to the game now.
this is a nice birthday present, finally a trailer thats not 2 seconds long
Happy Bday!
thank you!
Oh awesome happy birthday!
Good birth!
It looks like someone is watching you on the website )between the logos)
http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/ultra/en-us/
From the official site: Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon have been powered up with new additions to the story and features of Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon! These titles are coming to the Nintendo 3DS family of systems on November 17, 2017.
Can people stop bitching about ‘it’s vague’ now
I mean…..Haven’t they always said that? I feel like at least the Japanese press release from June said that
It was obvious, people just enjoy bitching
“New additions to the story” so it’s not a sequel..
I mean we knew this from the start
Did we really?
“these games showcase a alternate story”
‘An alternate story’
Then why were people confused again?
because people dont listen
Reminds me when people thought that SM was going to be Gen 6.5
Because people want to hope it’s something it’s not so they can complain when it turns out they were wrong? lol
