DISCLAIMER: Rumors are not confirmed information, should not be thought of to be confirmed information and should not be shared as confirmed information. These are for discussion purposes.
We shared a rumor with you that Pokémon Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon may be getting additional Alolan Forms of older Pokémon in a previous post, but now we’re going to share a little bit more. Please be aware that some may find this a form of spoiler so you are advised not to read further, even though we are posting this as an unsubstantiated rumor totally outside the scope of official information.
The reason that we are posting this to append the previous rumor is because of the confirmation we got about Rainbow Rocket’s takeover of Aether Paradise (which could be seen on the Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon download card). A Chinese fan sent us some of this information which also seemed to line up with other things we had heard from separate sources.
- Alolan Oddish, Alolan Gloom and Alolan Vileplume will all have Poison/Fairy-typing
- Alolan Parasect will be Bug/Ghost (the rumor did not mention Paras so I will not infer anything there)
I am taking this with as much salt as you should, but I’m definitely hopeful because there seems to be a lot of potential for all the Pokémon named in the rumor and it would be great to see these unique typings as well (Shedinja aside)!










Don’t get hopes up, but we shall see what this comes to. It’ll likely be interesting regardless.

hmmm very!
how long till we can expect the publish??
Who knows, but I can imagine if it’s something of interest this coming Thursday will give us some info
I cant believe it. You guys voted for Kahili??
Well she’s been eliminated. Why though? I liked Kahili she was very cool, and her battle was really hard. Her and toucannon RBF is just amazing. I can’t believe this.

Well Well Well
Seeing how USUM will be out in November. I guess we will be rushed through USUM. No Post game probably either.
Alternatively, we’re going to see new Pokémon revealed before their Gen as they usually were every Gen before V and you may be jumping to an unlikely conclusion considering PokeSwitch will probably be 2019 and USUM is being worked on by other members of GameFreak but idk
Yea I guess I didnt mean rushed, Lets be real we’ll all be done with USUM by 2018 anyway
I have doubts we’ll be 100% done
It took me alot longer than usual to play SuMo than usual (Then again this time, I’m putting my foot down and if my brother won’t play I will leave him. As because of that I wasn’t done till after bank came for it)
Is this USUM related or switch related?
Unknown. All we know is it exists.
That’s mean at least 806, Pokémon are confirmed to exist
Well…..yeah. But we don’t know if it’s a Pokemon for USUM or the Switch game
Either way I’m happy that we know another one is, yet to be discovered. Can’t wait till its revealed
I’d say there are two possibilities. It’s either a new mythical for this gen or it’s a new mythical for next gen. I’m not sure they’d hold off that long on merch for new normal Pokemon. It’s likely a mythical either way
If it’s a new mythical for this gen, someone will datamine it in USUM. Because how can we get it if its model is not in the data?
DLC? that’s been my theory for a while. hold back a few mythical pokemon and patch em in later, that way the inevitable datamines can’t lay out all the cool secrets at once.
Will all the patches and DLC make the games unplayable when people buy them used 10 years from now?
So probably the magearna of gen 8
So let’s say the mystery Pokemon is gen 8. that basically means Pokemon Switch is coming out next year.If it’s not a gen 8 Pokemon then we still get a new Pokemon.I think either way we’ll being getting a win win situation
All situations with a new Pokémon are a win-win situation
SOME people could argue against that tho haha
Not if I don’t wanna buy a Switch.
I mean, I still would anyway, but I’d complain about it. Switch games are $20 more expensive than 3DS games here in the US.
The amount of content they’ll be able to add though because of the switch’s power will be well worth the $20 upcharge.
Maybe if you already *have* a Switch.
Okay, but if a Switch cost $100 more than a brand-new New 3DS XL, and I want to get both games, that’s $140 MORE than I’d pay otherwise. Not to mention I already have a couple of 2DS, and I could get a brand new one of those (with Mario Kart 8 preinstalled) for $80.
Well the hope is that they stop with two versions. I don’t think that format would translate well on the Switch. And yes, it is nice if you already have a switch, but I got mine by saving up money and also selling my Wii U for it. It’s still cheaper than the other consoles.
As for it being expensive for families, that’s true, but that’s just the price of gaming. It’s never been a cheap hobby, even through the 2DS. 2DS are like $90-$100 give or take (if you’re not getting a 2DS XL, and most kids I know have a 3DS and do not want the 2DS model in the slightest), plus $40, so that’s around $140 for one child for just one game. Yeah, it’s still like half the price, but I’m sure Nintendo is aware of that and I’m sure they’re probably working on alternatives. Anyway you spin it, I think this is a good move for the franchise. Creativity should not be held back by the limited power of the 3DS just so it’s more affordable for kids. It has to be allowed to grow and evolve.
Do we truly play Pokemon for the creativity? Truly? It’s been the same game for about 20 years. It just looks prettier and prettier, and some of the game mechanics have improved (battling system, internet connectivity).
I’d *say* this might hurt their bottom line, but with Pokemon, anything is like printing money, so whatever.
I still don’t like it, and talking about it is starting to make me mad. So I’m going to stop for now.
They’ll probably release some sort of Switch mini or something before then.
I know that I live here too. My only wonder is will Pokémon actually stoop to the level of upping their price (Has it ever changed from $40 dollars?)
No it’s not… you know that. Magearna merch was avaible early 2015, so Pokemon Switch is still probably 2019
Wut…..that’s wrong…..Magearna wasn’t revealed until February 2016. The merch may have been hinted at via a “?”, but the actual merch was never fully revealed until Megearna was officially shown in February

Yikes……………
I kind of want to see this because my crush watches it, but I also don’t cause I hate horror (and wiki listed it as horror)
Tell me more about this show or explain to me some more about it
It’s great. Not my fav show, but I love it. The first season really made me like the protagonists, it was exciting, cool and pretty funny at moments. Its a really good, interesting and worth watching show. The second season is alright, but I only watched few episodes to this moment. I don’t want to spoil the plot, I will say that it gets somewhat horror-like at moments, but not too much. I’m not a horror guy myself and it wasn’t that bad. My recomendation for you is to watch few episodes (3 to 5) you’ll either love it or really not. Then you’ll decide if you want to watch it all.
I’ll probably when at my grandma’s tomorrow will try it and see for myself
You have Netflix at your grandma’s?
Yeah my brother is the one who actually has it (yeah I have an odd family life, as my grandma’s house is where I go after school everyday and my mom picks me up everyday to go home) but since he practically lives their I just deem its my Grandma’s
Im wondering if the Pokemon switch game will come out next year or 2019?
I’d still say it’s a 50/50 chance, but I suppose it depends on what that mystery Pokemon is. We shall see. That said I think if it is coming out next year we’ll hear about it early next year.
So 2/21?
Where you get that date from? I mean it could be, but the date is really not what matters. Either way I’d say winter 2018
Pokemon day’s around that time right?
Pokemon day is the 27th. But yeah I suppose they could do it that day. They announced SM on Pokemon day so it wouldn’t surprise me if they made that day their new traditional game announcement day.
Maybe like the first USUM/Poken trailer
If it is 2019 though I have one problem, they said USUM is the last 3ds Pokémon game so that would mean either we are getting a spin off game on switch first (PMD: GtI was the same way so) or We are going to go through even worse than the Drought of 15
Not just Gti but blue rescue team on the ds too… Every other gen of pmd is ahead a console.
I’d say 2019 for sure. If there needed to be a year in between ORAS and Sun/Moon there needs to be one in between USUM and Pokemon Switch!
Yeah its two games then a break
But I wonder what will be in between the two for next year
They said they’re done with mainline pokemon games on 3DS, maybe a different kind of game?
Pokémon Conquest 2 could happen!
Look up Ultra Instinct Shaggy, its great
I have not gotten the email yet.
Yo, I have not gotten the email. Do you need me to type it out again?
Well even if this is BS (totally is) at least if it happens to be true. Then at least I get two days for USUM

WAIT…………. Groundon causes Earthquakes………..black star, Necrozma………… Ultra Groundon and Kyogre confirmed
Wolfie’s gonna die how she lived: playing Pokemon
We shall all perish while doing one thing… Gaming
Another FNAF game theory, GDI…
Bloeeegggggghhhhh my brain is fried,,,,,,,I did so much of Sand Kingdom….need a few more mooonz
What is this talk of a new pokemon being revealed? There’s too much to scroll through to see where it all started
I’m totally all for this, I’d love more Alolan Forms! The more, the better, I say! 😀 And these sound great! Poison/Fairy sounds really interesting for the Oddish line, and I love Parasect, other than it’s Bug/Grass typing, so a Bug/Ghost typing sounds awesome to me! I hope these are true, though I’d say that they’re probably false. But, then again, USUM is the first games to add new Pokemon between games like this so we never know. 🙂
