New Ultra Beasts Revealed for Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon

During the Nintendo Direct earlier today exciting news was revealed about the upcoming titles Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. The games add two new Ultra Beasts: UB Assembly (Ultra Moon) and UB Burst (Ultra Sun)! The first looks like a giant tower of bricks while the latter has a unique clown-like appearance. You can see them below in the trailer.

In addition, the details we saw earlier from CoroCoro leaks have also been confirmed. After Necrozma captures either Solgaleo or Lunala it will become Dusk Mane Necrozma or Dawn Wings Necrozma, respectively. It also gains access to their signature moves as well! The Japanese trailer has a bit better view of the cutscene.

In addition, Lycanroc will be able to use a new Z-Move called Splintered Stormshards when it uses the Z-Crystal Lycanium Z. Players who buy Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon upon release will get a special Rockruff which knows Fire Fang (Ultra Sun) or Thunder Fang (Ultra Moon) as well as Happy Hour. It will be distributed holding a Focus Band.

What do you think about the new Ultra Beasts and other info?!

  1. So…generation 7 is the first not to include the full pokedex in its initial games? We’ve gotten new forms with the third/fourth game before, but we’ve never been introduced to something completely new before like the two new UBs

  2. My brain can’t stop pre planning for my Silver run
    I need to catch Heracross ASAP and I need to raise a Zubat (which I now know it can be taught Swift in the water cave place) but my bigger concerns are Donphan, Ursaring, and Tyranitar

    All these Pokemon are rare late game captures that won’t level up fast enough and I need to at least trade from gold to get Teddiursa. And I don’t have to remind everyone that leveling in GSC is tedious

    • I seem to be getting contradictory info from Serebii.net on Heracross, the earliest it is said to appear is Route 29 and there is a 30% chance of it appearing by Headbutt. However, when I look at Pokearth I don’t see it on any of the routes’ Headbutt Pokémon. If you can help clear this confusion for me I would be quite grateful.

      • Well seeing how you dont get headbutt until the forest. I would go with route 33. and I thought heracross was only found in the mornings. Thats probably wrong, but It its is found in route 33 with headbutt

      • There is a sure fire way I did it
        You have to beat the Azelea Gym (Make sure to save Fury Cutter) and get cut, find the headbutt guy and give it to your starter
        Then backtrack to route 33 there’s only two trees and Heracross is listed there so unless the system is just randomly plomping them wherever one of them has to have it
        So just smash your skull into them until one pops out, you might need to put it to sleep or confuse it so it doesn’t flee

        But let me reassure you it can do decent damage via Horn attack and save Fury Cutter so it has a Stab Bug move and also give it Rock Smash after Goldenrod

  3. I really hate to be that person….but I have never liked the Ultra Beasts….their designs have always been extremely strange and offputting to me, and I see them more as aliens than Pokémon. =(
    On a different note, I am optimistic that with the introduction of new UBs, this may mean that other new Pokémon may be introduced, not just new forms/Alolan Forms!!!
    I personally would LOVE new Alolan Forms for Johto Pokémon (Can you say a snowy owl Ice/Flying HootHoot and Noctowl?!)
    But if they surprised even further….with actual new Pokémon (not counting UBs and forms)??? GOOD. LORD. YES.

  4. I have to say. I dont really like Ultra Beasts either they look crazy. and yes yes I know that is their exact purpose, but it really turns me off. Guzzlord is the only UB I really like. Lets just get some more Alola forms.
    ALSOOOO Mr. Earthen said new pokemon would never appear in 3rd versions. You arent very good at this predicting game.
    I do wonder where they’ll be in the pokedex

      • Also it could be a firework. And it could be a dandelion.
        And the cliche ghost holding its head.
        I prefer Assembly design-wise, but It’s amazing how mysterious and creative Burst is

  5. I don’t really like the Tynamo line for some reason. The first stage is too diffrent from the third stage and the second stage is too simmilar too the third (Like, I thought they were one pokemon for some time). And also secondary Water type could help it.

  6. For those who watched the first Brock and Misty episode this week of the anime, how was it? I thumbed through the pictures on Serebii and that made me excited, but it doesn’t tell you everything. Was it as good as I hoped it would be so far? hahaha

  7. Imagine if Gamefreak remastered HGSS to 3ds/switch graphics like how Bethesda remastered Skyrim as a quick release between generations.

    That would ve really fricking cool.
    I for one would love to see Johto in 3D!

      • Which one haven’t you used? Also I am worried about how difficult it will be to get Bellossom, the Sun Stone is only for those who place 1st in the Bug Catching Contest.

        Reply
        • Haven’t used Jynx. There’s a trick to win the contest for the stone. You could technically win with a Weedle lol. Don’t injure the Pokemon at all. Go for a high level too. Of course if you find a rare bug that’s great, but again you could win with a stage 1 mon. At least that’s how it works in HGSS. In GS I’m not sure.

          Reply
          • Thanks for the tip. Yea I am using Jynx in this team. I am likely never to use Jynx in any future games unless it gets something like a Mega or a regional form. Considering the initial controversy with that Pokémon and how it was not given an evolution in Generation 4, I don’t think they are going to do either.

      • The inclusion of Lick makes me think Bearry is a Bear Pokémon that likes to lick Honey from Honeycombs. (I don’t know that is the first thing that came to mind). So it being a Grass type is a little concerning since the Bees would be Bug types and would harm the bear according to type effectiveness. However, that is not how it is in real life, this is contrary to the typing relationship of Durant and Heatmor. I would make it Grass/Steel. You would just need to give it one Steel type move-Gyro ball for example- kind of like the case with Minior.

        • Dude I gave it lick because it eats a lot and plenty of pokes learn lick
          It’s just a tiny plant bear that grows its own berries because of its fruit heavy diet
