New Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Trailer & Features Revealed

As promised, a brand new trailer showing off new features and story elements of Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon has been released!

New Information:

  • Team Rainbow Rocket has assembled under Giovanni to bring together the biggest baddies of the last 20 years.

In Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon, the greatest villainous organization in history appears! It’s Team Rainbow Rocket—made up of the bosses from past titles in the Pokémon series!

The boss of Team Rainbow Rocket is none other than Giovanni, who was also the boss of the villainous organization known as Team Rocket in Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue, the first games in the Pokémon series.

But that’s not the worst of it—Giovanni has gathered into one group the bosses from the various past games in the Pokémon series! You and your allies will have to square off against what might be your greatest challenge yet!

What in the world could Giovanni and his allies be after, appearing in the Alola region so suddenly…?

  • New Battle Agency feature allows you to battle using rental teams!

When you don your sunglasses and become an “agent” at this facility, you can take part in Single Battles using rental Pokémon. You’ll have three such Pokémon to command as you try to defeat the three Pokémon in your opponent’s team. Try to win your way to being the best of all the agents! 

  • Totem Stickers seem to take the place of Zygarde Cells and can be found throughout Alola and ultimately redeemed for totem-like Pokémon!

With Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon,you’ll be able to collect stickers called Totem Stickers all around Alola. Totem Stickers glitter and shine in the field.

If you collect these Totem Stickers, you’ll be able to get a huge totem-like Pokémon for your team, based on how many stickers you’ve collected. It’ll surely shock your opponents to see you using these oversized totem-like Pokémon in battle!

The totem-like Pokémon that you can get as allies can differ based on whether you’re playing Pokémon Ultra Sun or Pokémon Ultra Moon. For example, you can get Lurantis as an ally in Pokémon Ultra Sun or Salazzle in Pokémon Ultra Moon. Search every corner of the Alola region and collect masses of Totem Stickers!

  • Catch lots of Legendary Pokémon depending on your game!
    • Pokémon Ultra Sun only: Ho-Oh, Raikou, Groudon, Latios, Dialga, Heatran, Reshiram, Tornadus, Xerneas.
    • Pokémon Ultra Moon only: Lugia, Entei, Kyogre, Latias, Palkia, Regigigas, Zekrom, Thundurus, Yveltal.
  • Island Scan feature returns with new Pokémon, including Charmander, Grovyle and Greninja!

  1. Hmm I think I have a new idea

    How about I take new starters as I am semi-converting my games
    My ideas are
    A Grass type Wombat that could evolve into its extinct relative, Diprotodon,
    A Fire type Goat to fill the Zodiac and
    A Water type Tapir, as a few Tapir species are considered semi-aquatic

    Think they are more interesting and unique then a Raccoon, Rabbit and Elephant?

    I also think they kinda are out of the norm (note I rarely see people dabble with the goat for a starter) and that’s good for a fan game

  3. PSYCHE

    Pokedex Entry: 147
    Candief
    Classification: The Candy Lover Pokemon

    Weight: 0.02
    Type: Ghost/Fairy
    Ability: Prankster

    HP: 20

    Defense: 20
    Special Attack: 20
    Special Defense: 30
    Speed: 100
    Base Stat Total: 240
    Pokedex Entry: It is said that this Pokemon was born when a trick or treating child perished and their soul was bound to the earth. Although it lacks memory of what its life actually was like, it has an affinity for candy. It is rumored that this trait is caused by a subconscious desire in Candief to become a human child once more.

    Evolves When: Leveled up with a rare candy

    Pokedex Entry: 147
    Sugurglar (Mania Form)
    Classification: The Sweet Snatcher Pokemon
    Height: 2’01
    Weight: 36.2
    Type: Ghost/Fairy
    Ability: Desperation
    Stats:
    HP: 20
    Attack: 50
    Defense: 20
    Special Attack: 20
    Special Defense: 30
    Speed: 120
    Base Stat Total: 260
    Pokedex Entry: When a Candief begins to evolve, it realizes that candy is the only piece of its past that actually remains. This causes it to resist evolving in a desperate attempt to keep more of its past life. When it sees candy, it will attempt to retrieve it, regardless of how malicious the it needs to be so it can achieve this goal. When it lacks candy for too long, it tends to flip out and goes into a violent frenzy until its desires are met.

    Pokedex Number:
    Sugurglar (Normal Form
    Classification: The Sweet Snatcher Pokemon
    Height: 2’01
    Weight: 36.2
    Type: Ghost/Fairy
    Ability: Sugar Swipe
    Stats:
    HP: 60
    Attack: 100
    Defense: 50
    Special Attack: 60
    Special Defense: 75
    Speed: 120
    Base Stat Total: 465
    Pokedex Entry: Upon learning to accept what it has become, Sugurglar’s desperate dependence on candy dissipates and it gains control of its new form. Despite this, it still adores sugary foods, regardless of what they may be. Sugurglar is a master thief with a near endless supply of tricks to utilize in pursuit of what it desires. Although it is extremely crafty, it never intends to be malicious.

    Sugar Swipe: If this Pokemon is on the field with any other pokemon that has a berry or candy item, it steals it and takes the effect.

  4. What I want to see from pokemon switch is more updated and active 3d models.
    One reason I was wanting Stadium to return is because PBR Stadium and XD (etc.) 3d models were just better. They seemed more interactive especially PBR! I loved how when Pokemon used a physical attack they went to the other side of the field to do the attack because it’s physical!
    https://i.makeagif.com/media/11-02-2015/4HJDPb.gif
    Many moves used different pokemon animations while moves on 3DS call for the same animation each time nearly.

    The moves look so cool then too! Just look at this seismic toss. Sure it’s pretty crazy, but it’s fun to watch. http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/996/889/6d5.gif It makes attacks look more powerful! And thats what I want to see

    The Pokemon in general were more animated and fun to watch. and Yes I know 3ds probably had limitation where couldnt do all these, but Im going to be honest, I hope and expect them to this in better graphics for Pokemon switch They proved they can do it with PBR for the Wii, it’s been 2 home consoles later. Can they still do it. And Fix these horrible dull colored boring 3d models of 3ds. https://i.makeagif.com/media/10-09-2015/0IU572.gif

      • Yeah, until I played HeartGold and LeafGreen, I didn’t realize Tentacool’s jewel was red. I thought it was purple for years.

        Reply
    • What you are asking for (except at the end with colors) isn’t actually graphics. But yeah considering the extra power I can see them doing a bit more or at least would hope they would if not it proves their laziness. As to colors eh I don’t really notice an issue personally but considering they will likely be making new higher res textures (again unless they are lazy) they might change the colors but I dunno if they will, and again to me I dunno if I would even care about that either way. Something I would also like to point out though is that PBR/Colosseum/XD/Stadium/etc. isn’t made by GameFreak so… I mean… eh? And we will also as the next mainline game is coming to console never get a game like those ever again, though I do find it weird we didn’t get anything for B/W. Especially not for X/Y and even more S/M but eh, maybe it is because at least with X/Y the mainline games were technically finally in 3D (more so in SM than XY but yeah). As for B/W maybe they didn’t want a second one on the same console just for the couple extra Pokemon despite doing so in the past. PBR was kind of lazy though so that could explain it.

    • The animations in battle Revolution and the artstyle in general was so nice, but i think they said in an interview about the artstyle Being like it is in XY about making it more accessible
      And i hate how in 3ds, most pokemon have like 2-3 move animations they use for every move, but making it lije battle Revolution would mean the battles would take way to long. So the anime. But i agree,the 3ds animations are just like the DS ones but models instead of sprites.

      • The only leak I want is the actual cia file because I don’t want spoilers but playing the game early is fine, and I know blah blah piracy blah blah. I’m still buying the games but playing it asap is just you know good especially since others will be as well and aren’t as considerate as me when it comes to leaks and would post them everywhere.

        Reply
    • Yeah I think the trailer on next Friday will be sort of like how they did trailers back in SM pre release. It’ll be one where they show off a handful of new forms and then finish off with Light Necrozma either in full or as a tease. I gotta say tho they’re really coming down to the wire with the Alolan forms. We have enough credible leaks and sources saying they’re coming at this point it’d be surprising if they weren’t. It’s just odd they’d keep them a secret for this long

      Reply
      • Or they can just screw us over again and just reveal other stuff and leave us out in the dark questuoning if there are Alola forms or not. I feel like if they covered Gym simulator, Mimikyu Z-move, New UB, and Necrozma “This isn’t even my final form” form then we will have at least a two minute trailer and feelings of anxiety sprinkled with hype and joy.

        Reply
        • I could certainly see the trailer being like that too. Either way it’s likely over the next week or so the games will be leaked due to a store breaking street date or something so we’ll find out about the Alolan forms before the release anyway

          Reply
          • Sí, I think a lot of us would feel less anxious if they have revealed it earlier and if there was not that French interview.

          • That French interview was such garbage. Why in the world would they be willing to ruin their relationship with TPC/GF just to write a clickbaity article they did? So stupid……Good thing we’ve got people in the know on the web that straightened things out for us. It would have been a long few weeks if they hadn’t lol

          • I am still a bit perplexed about what happened. I won’t have you explain it to me because everytime I try to collect my thoughts into a post it becomes quite lengthy in my head and I don’t want to cause you that discomfort. Thus, I am at 90% belief in new Alola forms as of now.

          • Eh. There is no room for them in the Pokedex sure Adhesive doesn’t fit either but it seems to be an artificial one made by URS I don’t see why they would make more so I just don’t see any more UBs.

          • I really don’t see Adhesive being artificial considering it looks more organic than some of the other UBs. Adhesive is most likely not with the other UBs because it’s encountered in battle much earlier than other UBs (as early as Paniola Ranch) and is probably weaker than them as well.

    • Mimikyu’s zmove and I would assume something else because it seems pointless to do a trailer just for that. I don’t see it being Alolan forms because it is faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar too late to be announcing those, but I wouldn’t be upset if it were.

  5. I’m having a hard time deciding whether Mimikyu is cute or scary. The games paint a different picture than the anime does hahaha

  6. Just watched the new Thor movie last night. Here are my “3” cents! (criticism of the movie)

    Definitely the best of the three Thor movies. I oddly enjoyed this superhero more for the humorous parts rather than the action scenes. The character arc of Thor was well developed and finely concluded in this movie displaying both his growth and acceptance of the necessary humility and pride needed for a king-especially in relation to his brother. However, I feel that the development of some of the supporting cast was sacrificed in order to do this: Loki and Bruce Banner. The latter of the two is understandable if you consider what is happening behind the scenes, it has been around 10 years since Mark Ruffalo came as The Hulk, and he may want to do new things. Thus, the main character progression and humor in the film were of an excellent level amongst its peers in the MCU, however the treatment of other main characters and action scenes that were not as exciting as I had expected brought my appraisal of the movie down by a little bit. And before I forget, I liked how they ended the movie and the final fight-even though it becomes apparent before the fact was stated-and the take home message that the movie was trying to deliver.

    Rating: 8.5/10 Daes.

        • Yeah that’s what I thought. the first Iron Man which basically sparked the new Marvel universe didn’t even get released until 2008 haha

          Reply
    • You have to look at the character arcs over all the movies they have appeared in. If you do that you’ll see Loki actually has a large arc that culminates in what we see of him in this movie, it essentially carries on from what we see of him in Dark World. Bruce is really a set-up arc for the future where he’ll have trouble not being the Hulk and they may do the separation. My problem with Hulk in this is that in the final battle he is kind of out of the way of the action as he fights Fenris on the waterfall, where he’s mostly just wrestling it, so he doesn’t feel as much part of the action or final fight. Korg is the best character.

      • I think the official word is that she’s off-world, wonder if she knows.
        At least we didn’t have to put up with boring Jane Subplot or the intern and her intern. I did kind of want some Selvig though.
