The information from CoroCoro about new features in Pokémon Sun& Moon has been released in a new trailer!
Here are the main takeaways from the new information:
- Necrozma, and its Dusk Mane/Dawn Wings Formes, can learn a new Psychic-type attack: Photon Geyser! It will use either Attack or Special Attack… whichever of Necrozma’s stats is higher!
- Dusk Mane Necrozma and Solgaleo can use the new Z-Move Searing Sunraze Smash by powering up Sunsteel Strike and holding Solganium Z
- Dawn Wings Necrozma and Lunala can use the new Z-Move Menacing Moonraze Maelstrom by powering up Moongeist Beam and holding Lunalium Z
- Both new Z-Moves ignore the target’s ability when attacking
- Rotom Dex can be communicated in more ways and the way you do so can change its personality
- A new feature, the Roto Loto, grants new items which can increase EXP, prize money or other factors for set amounts of time
- Befriending the Rotom Dex will eventually allow you to use multiple Z-Moves during battle, but probably not in competitive matches

Just posting this for no reason
Ok….Now where’s those ppl who said that actually not Kommo-o??????? …..Muhahahaha
it still isnt
Not funny
im not being funny
It’s Kommo-o’s cousin that Laila identical to him. Like the two Oaks.
Now I see how Dawn Necrozma hit Mimikyu that cuz the new Z-Moves ignore the target’s ability when attacking.
How funny would it have been to go through the entire cutscene only to see it’s head flop over at the end.
I just realized this:Rotomdex has teeth
That art of the forms is just awesome. Also, those are some of the most ridiculous Z-Moves I’ve ever seen. I want to go to Route 1 and mess around by sending those Pokémon to their demise through an Ultra Wormhole.
Some people online noticed this…level 75 wild Pokémon?! Or is this just a demo? I really doubt it since the game comes out in a month.

WTF I HOPE THIS IS REAL INGAME
Please be a thing, levelling up is going to be so much better
I don’t think it’s necessary the biggest indicator because it’s fabricated for a trailer, but it could be
Doubt there’ll be wild level 75 Pokemon. Prolly just a generic number for them to show off the moves.
USUM is 3.6 Gigabytes, 0.4 bigger than SuMo
Keeping in mind they’ll of removed certain assets as well as adding new ones in
hmm well it’s a positive sign to say the least.
I mean 0.4 GB is quite a lot for a game right?
Well it’s one ninth of the game’s overall data (and twice the memory as ORAS) so I’d say it’s a decent boost
Oooh
What kind of assets would they be removing tho
Probs cutscenes and music they’re no longer using
Uh yeah, but these would be replaced by another ones that’ll likely take up a similar space. I mean, removing cutscenes and not adding other in their place would be weird unless that cutscene was very irrelevant or the plot has changed so much that they’d remove some events in the game.
But if the cutscenes take up just as much space, than it’s .4 of all new content right?
Pretty much, but I’m not sure if that number is a lot or not
^ What I meant
Ik, I was just speculating
I imagine a lot of that goes to all the environments they designed for each ultra beast. Sigh.
The art is beautiful btw Just gorgeous.
and a lottery? Idk how I feel about it. I hope its not too luck based, because that can get very annoying. And I love it. This game looks soooo fun, but…
Wheres our better post game facility? Has GF officially given up on those? Is this the first third version since Yellow without post game facility?
I want to ask this honestly to fellow (semi)hardcore pokemon fans:
If Battle Frontier, PWT was added to post game, would you gladly play it?
If we’re lucky they might hide it from us until the game is released but I’m starting to doubt that. I’m thinking that we might get and upgraded BT instead.
And yes, I’d play it, I like these kind of facilities
Decided to catch up with Stranger Things before S2. For some reason I only watched 1 ep and then forgot about it
OMG these screen caps say so much and I couldn’t help myself form breaking down in laughter hahahaha

*Rowlet Evolves into Dartrix and attacks Faba*
Honestly one of the best scenes there is in Pokemon. I haven’t watched it yet, but I can’t wait to see it in full action hahaha
That’s not What happens, it was a joke to be clear
Oh I know I was just saying that about the screen caps. Sorry didn’t mean to confuse lol
lol
Bitch stole my idea
Why the heck is he throwing Rowlet XD
Because he’s a hilarious monster haha
XD Faba is trash and it’s magical
The look on Pikachu’s face after he throws Rowlet is what is magical hahaha
Yaas
It’s a weird olympic sport
The “Rowlet toss” is my favorite event lol
Playing football in the Pokémon world be like
Rowlet noooooo D:
Evil Faba!
Episode 46’s trailer has a ditto that literally has a spaz attack
I want this as a gif for nope purposes
So rotom is basically has O-power functionality. I like the fact we can interact with it in a more meaningful way also I love that we can change it’s personality based on how we treat it!
In ORAS how early can you access Mirage Spot Legends?
Idk but I’m pretty sure a few require you to meet certain criteria like having specific pokemon or them being a certain level.
Yeah that’s all I could find out. I just want to shiny hunt Zekrom without having to play through the whole of Alpha yet.
-Lake Guardians are available immediately after obtaining Soar
-Weather Genie’s are available immediately after beating Steven, but they require Castform in your team to spawn
-Pretty sure sword and beast trio are just post game (after Steven)
-and certain others require criteria I can’t remember
You don’t get Soar till you get to sootopolis, so it’s at least that far in
Oh OK, guess I’ll just play through then.
And I think even then you have to beat kyogre/groudon before you get the flute. So it’s basically the entire main story
At least I think you do
Anyone hear about the Oculus Go? $200, stand-alone VR headset (no phone/PC required) in early 2018. I think this is a game changer. As a tech guy I feel like we’re fast approaching “the future” (as if we’re not already there).
https://youtu.be/-bQUBzPZHHQ
how can we approach the future is the future is already the present the moment i type this?
I’m kinda surprised they haven’t given up in VR yet, hope this one does well
Siiiiiiigh I was so close to the jackpot on the Loto ticket I got…
But then again they’re designed to keep making them money while you lose
Huge L to those people who thought this was a new Pokemon https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/18de2744584ee7af42b257fd7d0ea92249cfcac4a00f6e302af535ab9df2cb65.jpg
It still is a new pokemon
What are you doing
Kommo-o was introduced in gen 7 the gen currently going on so technically it still is a new pokemon?
not really
it is tho, as this a newest gen so all the pokemon are new till gen 8 😉
New = not seen before
New=Kommo-o a pokemon we’ve seen before but not really seen before
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ac48bcad7c5bbfc7e67580e09cb4bbddeeb5797b012b2a9df9560f60743c6089.png
Wait… Why do we have to Govnah’s now?
No
But your Govnoir and then we have Macmayor Govnah Skiddo
same person
Oh I just hadn’t refreshed the screen so it had two different names
My bad
Words can have multiple meanings, children understand this. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d6d62926183f72e1e5e0bafc67f35f847fd2b74f167565bd56c188b32db5bc81.png
Or till at least one Gen.8 Pokémon is unveiled till that, they are still in the new category
Thank you!
No tea no shade no pink lemonade but I can’t understand what you say half the time
PINK LEMONADE IS SO FUCKING YUMMY
http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1507819536459.gif
you laugh but half the time we cant understand you 🙂
It’s not worth it :/
yea its over
I would like to say it’s not very effective…..but actually I immune to these kind of cheap insulting.
I immune to idiotic so we both counter each other
ur pathetic……don’t cry punk it’s not a new pokemon
it is a new pokemon
Stop this stupid shiit ……u think it’s clever but it’s not at all
but im looking at the back of a new pokemon named kommo-o
Still don’t understand? Are you saying Pokedex Rotom counts as a new Pokémon? Super confused
well there was a big debate about a scan that showed supposedly a new pokemon but in reality it was kommo-o im just trolling a bit still saying it is even tho its been proven other wise
Oh ok. I just got super confused due to lack of being here at the time being
He was just joking jfc
I can’t treat that as a joke ….I call this rudeness and I always ready for that ….wat jfc means by the way?
‘jesus f*cking christ’
And tbh it’s better for you to just ignore jokes you see as mean spirited, reaction causes action
Actually I didn’t mention him at first place……… but when ur trying to be an asshole with me ….u should know the Satan is more closer to me.
Isn’t it satan and not the satan?
wut?
In English ‘Satan’ doesn’t need a ‘the’ in front of it
I will memorize this
English is a tricky language to learn, I’ve been speaking it my whole life and it’s still difficult sometimes XD
In fairness you are Scottish… 😛
Yew wott pal
Still better than half the people I went to school with.
The reason y it’s the common language is so weird……wat I can say this’s wat humanz like
It’s only the most common language because two of the most influential countries speak it, not because of its quality XD
Oh it’s common because there’s so many people from the US and UK everywhere that literally every country minus a few need to know English to some extent.
Not accurate enough …..y US ppl speak English at first place ……I think the reason is England almost conquest many country in the past.
??
“??” is not a question be more determine.
I believe it’s actually considered cool to know English in Japan
wtf
I cannot speak at all
Same goes for me… Somewhat
You hear me
You’ve heard me too
Inded
I can’t spell either XD
XDlolXDSaladnoisu
Could just be a language thing or a personal belief thing
Wait what? I don’t understand?
Y they use Z-move against humanz?
Seraph I did it
Btw who ever took me serious just take the L along with the L I took 🙂
I love it! And the new graphics for Rotom are awesome!
Hey I was just saying the other day how I want O-powers to come back and look at that!
Oh and Happy Birthday Earthen!!!! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/636e641e5ed51697de2857e31306d1d1ddadecbc15e70f6a462884a246e38701.gif
As if Rhyperior could tank an energy ball like it was nothing
The joy of the anime
Where the higher your level is the more bada$$ you are!
Thanks (I wish Solid Rock negated Super effective damage all together)
7 days till Birthday
YOU DID IT YAAAAAAAS
Okay I’m super tired of all these Z-moves. We all know they are not returning for gen 8 so it’s just pointless. Not to mention they’re overly long.
I like watching the cutscenes they intrigue me
Yeah I like watching them once and then never again.
yfw they do return for gen 8
mfw they don’t
https://media.giphy.com/media/14urMYvFxIKEms/giphy.gif
Guess that means Megas were pointless too
I like them rotating and trying out new features, makes every game unique and not every new game is auto invalidated by the game before itb
That’s a false equivalence in terms of my argument. Megas have returned past gen 6. Sure, we didn’t get new ones, but they are still available to use. I bet anything Z-moves will be exclusive to gen 7 only. I really think they pushed z-moves over megas so that moving forward they wouldn’t feel obligated to carry them over and they can move onto the next gimmick.
Just like we will see Z-moves in gen 8, but we won’t get new ones
you dont know that
It makes more sense than him saying they for sure won’t
No Mega Z-moves make more snese
That’d be cool
Z-moves like Kommo-o’s but instead of stat changes it mega Evolves the mon
Yeah I doubt it. They constructed megas so that they’re tied to the lore of the pokemon now. It’s an alternate form in a sense. You really can’t leave out forms. Z-moves, while some are exclusive to certain mons, are just moves. It won’t affect lore to leave them out or say you can only use them in Alola, where the z bracelets are not easy to make or come by. How would we even get them in another region?
Simple:
Some important gen 8 character is from Alola. They give you a Z-ring and in post game you can collect Z-stones from a battle facility, like mega stones in Sun/Moon
But how did they get an extra..? You have to be recognized as worthy to even get one. That’s why a select few in Alola have them. I don’t think a guardian deity would give someone an extra. All you need for a mega band is a key stone, which, while rare, seem to be available all over.
What if Hapu traveled to another region? She could give you a Z-Ring after you become champion
Can she even do that? What I think is more likely is a new mechanic that’s similar to z-moves, but tweaked. So no dancing and shorter animations.
Probably just with a new item that does Z-moves and Mega Evolution, like they do different Mega bracelets etc each time.
I just doubt it. It would be so easy for them to say they’re exclusive, while they just can’t do that with megas. (Well, they could, but everyone would be pissed)
I guess so, I’m not sure how bad removing Z-moves now would be, the effect it would have on competitive etc.
I think there will be a similar replacement. It just won’t be called z-moves and all of the pokemon-exclusive moves are left in gen 7.
Hm, well I at least doubt they’ll all look the same and that the dances to do them will stay.
Yeah I really think that the dances and such will stay gen 7 as it’s “part of the alola culture” as they have basically described it
Z move: Spare time
Signature to dialga
A three minute z move where the player is allowed to make a quick sandwhich before coming back so they gain satisfaction
my mood
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/f9401b4ba72fa8fdc5442413ddb7aade890500df751feef04ed40b2738c949d5.png
Idea:
An Exclusive Z-Move for Mega Rayquaza that makes you just win the battle no matter what
Oh dam it ….this really evil idea no this’s a sin
That’s essentially what Mega Rayquaza does anyway.
So why delay the inevitable? :p
Because of the small chance their connection cuts out and they lose by default?
Or you’re me in a random battle and end up killing it with a stunfisk
I’m mostly joking, it of course has counters, even unexpected ones.
Like
MEGA REGIGIGAS
All that happens is it loses Slow Start and gains Speed Boost.
Actually, it gains plus 100 speed and huge power
Also Ghost Typing.
With a +6 priority move that gives it wonder guard
Also doesn’t need a Mega stone either and can hold 7 items at once.
Which it allows it to juggle the seven chaos emeralds and go Regigod
And all of its attacks are turned into zmove versions
True, true
Do we know if the zygarde cells are returning? (low key hope they are not so I don’t feel obligated to find them all again)
Pray that Zygarde shows up in the story or even as a catchable post game legend
*Praying
Zygarde got no justice. A sweet form but no good story to go with it. Big missed opportunity
