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!
- Next batch of new Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon information will drop November 9th, 10pm PST (November 10th JST/5am UTC)
What do you think?!
what if all these other teams were team rocket to begin with… i mean we saw how many members they had in R/B/G/Y and G/S what if after “disbanding” they all just started new teams in new regions withe new goals based on each regions beliefs and technology and when Giovanni resurfaced he called them all back to work for him. therefore abolishing the aether foundation lusamine refusing to work for him for whatever reason and RR being formed with no one to stop their destruction so they achieve their goals
Nice theory but I doubt it. Each evil team are basically separate and have no relation to each other.
Maybe grunts from disbanded rocket moved to say Aqua or Magma or even Plasma for example. That could be possible!
yeah i wasnt saying the leaders were former rockets im saying the grunts went to various regions and then when giovanni called the grunts convinced the leaders to go help/work for him my main theory is colress is the true leader though… i mean his whole purpose is bringing out a pokemons true power z moves are said to bring out a pokmons full potential and what if colress energy thing from B/W 2 mutated certain pokemon into ultra beasts burst is MR Mime assembly is crustle buzzwole is machamp son and so forth
So prolly the final trailer next week will be Necrozma light form and maybe Alolan forms. I could even see them doing an old style trailer like how they did last year for SM. With it being a Pokemon only reveal trailer
Battle Agency better have a doubles option. Doubles is like my favorite way to play with rentals its even more skill and luck involved.
I think we’re getting Triple Battle
Have you seen the lag in SM? No way they can get rid of it for USUM for triples.
But I would LOVE if triples came back for this.
actually they can if you remember SM was designed before the new 3ds xl came out USUM designed after so youll still be able to play it on the old 3ds but it will be optimized to run on the new one
https://twitter.com/Pokemon/status/926104362291568644
They seem more like rotation battles tho, which are equally as good still
But… But… that doesnt mean no doubles!! ;~:
I wish, I really miss them :l
https://twitter.com/PLDHnet/status/926100930843443201
But no mythicals smh
Mythicals. Arent. Found. In-game.
I KNOW AND I WANT THEM TO BE
yes they are darkrai cresselia mespirit uxie azelf are all mythicals found in game i get the first two are events i was stumped for names
All villains all legendaries…
Now put in there all champions to make this even better 😛
YESSSSS 😛
Imagine the champions are the challengers for your title 😛
That’d be cool. But unless they came through the portal I doubt it
Lol they like slam their fist down when they jump out and look up and like CHALLENGE ME

Interesting point. Legendaries levels and availability to use them when fighting RR whom also possess legendary pokemon!
Articuno and Suicune! Let goooo!
I love it!!!! Thank God Web design is giving me a study hall so I can see this!!!!
Is there official art for the Rainbow Rocket Grunts?
Nah only Giovanni
Well that’s unfortunate… I’m loving the design of the male grunt
Wait so what is the deal with Totem stickers?
Do they join in as Allies to you? Does your Pokémon become one? Can just any Pokémon become Totemized?
I want to know!
Find out next time on Dragon ball Z!
its probably like a hold item for pokemon and after collecting so many you get an item specoific to each one
Certain people like Samson Oak Gift you a Totem Sized Pokemon once you’ve collected a certain amount of stickers.
https://www.serebii.net/ultrasunultramoon/212.jpg
Yea in a certain confirmed this. You are gifted the totems
Darn 🙁 I wanted a totem Weavile or Suicune
Well already decided I’m going to box them for the main play (none of them impress me enough to use during the game)
I’m not gonna grab them until its confirmed if they are shiny huntable or not.
they are shiny huntable probably have shiny stickers for shiny versions
Shiny Stickers seem ridiculous. Just don’t have it shiny locked so I can SR til the Totem Pokemon is shiny.
the point is they want you to collect the stickers so im going to assume shiny stickers but is it just me or does the sticker picture have team magmas logo
They will not have Shiny Totem Stickers to redeem for Shiny Totem Pokemon. GameFreak rarely gifts shinies in game.
If you can hunt for a Shiny Totem Pokemon, it will be like how you can SR for Shiny Type Null in Sun & Moon.
The logo does look like Team Magma’s Logo, idk why it looks like that.
rarely huh weve had a bunch of shinys gifted in game or through events
Gyarardos in Gold Silver HeartGold SoulSilver
Haxorus in Black2 White2
Gible Black2 Dratini White2
Thats it for in game 100% shinies. Event Gifts are different. With online event they can choose to release shiny totem pokemon at anytime if they choose to do so. For in game pokemon, they rarely choose to gift you a shiny. GameFreak is more into Shiny Locking than gifting in game shinies.
its probably post game redemption only for the stickers just like we all had magearnas QR code for a while but couldnt use it until a certain point
It would honestly be ridiculous if any Pokemon could be Totem Sized. In the game, they said the Totem Pokemon got that way via special training.
Awww that means my Kommo-o can’t be the totem
You could just get the Totem instead of using your Jangmo
It is
https://youtu.be/7qlXHmP99BY
Why can’t Kommo-o be the totem? It’s a totem in Sun Moon. I’d assume its still a totem in USUM, even if not, it will most likely be one of the gift Totem pokemon they have.
Oh you mean for your fan fiction
Good
That sounds Mary Sue asf
I’m just curious if the Totem Pokemon are shiny huntable like Type Null is.
Note: Totem Pokemon do have shiny sprites
Totem Pokemon can breed in Sun & Moon
Totem Trait does not transfer to offspring in Sun & Moon
so im pretty sure colress is the true villian…. i have my reasons for thinking that mostly his pokemon energy emitter in B/W2 was never mentioned when you see him constantly again the fact looker is still not sure where ghetsis is but colress still seems to know make me wonder if colress created the ultra space or is from there originally or i might be crazy you pick
If anyone created the Ultra Space, it would be Cyrus since his plan in gen 4 was to create a new universe.
Anyways, according to Screenshots, it implies Ultra Space might just be far away planets.
https://www.serebii.net/ultrasunultramoon/175.jpg
hence why i was thinking colress someone who after B/W2 showed up in every other region after that
Still don’t know why you think Colress has anything to do with Ultra Space.
The only thing he did in games, was create a device that boosts Pokemon’s energy (used only to remove any Crustle blocking paths).
In the Anime he made a device that fills Pokemon with rage that boosts their power.
He had no connection to space or anything space related.
um he kind of does his design is spacey
That’s not enough for him to have any connection to space.
And anyone notice on the official site, that Faba appears alongside the villainous leaders in the artwork?
And I think this trailer is a good reason to change my form again so quickly
I noticed. It confirms that Faba is even a bigger dick than he already is.
is it just me or do the totem stickers have the Magma logo on them i wonder if there are stickers for each specific teams logo to show which region that specific totem is from so more totems
Nah, it’s Just a logo for the Totems
are we 100% sure on that though because i wouldnt put it past gamefreak for that small detail
Hyped asf, these games are gonna be amazing
Shame about the seeming lack of Alolans tho
Also Sun’s team in the RR poster is lit
Especially Wicke, Guzma and Sophocles
when the games come out i challenge anybody to make the poster team their team fotr the entire game would be interesting
I would but I have used all of those Pokémon at least once. That’s of course no including dusk lycanroc. That said I am picking litten so there’s that
What if the last Z-Stone is specifically for the Totem Sized Mons?
what if the last z stone has something to do with this tweet https://twitter.com/Junichi_Masuda/status/925529817134465025
so now that we know theres more news about pokemon coming out on the 10th can some one explain masudas fascination with eeveelutions lately https://twitter.com/Junichi_Masuda/status/925529817134465025
Sylveon is probably a coincidence and maybe the three original eeveelutions are getting alolan forms?
Alolan forms would be out of this world!
im thinking its possible we get an alolan eevee think about it every new gen except 5 i think has had a new eevee form or 2 im skeptical though because what kind of eevee would we get
They are upto something! 😛
Z moves I suspect
This Japanese trailer is hype asf!
https://youtu.be/7qlXHmP99BY
Why japanese trailers are always better
japan had 3 trailers
Legendaries have unique areas like UBs but have a generic background, Zygarde doesn’t have the background but does have a cave one. It’s probably now found in Resolution Cave.
;3
so ive posted it a bunch already but i want a bunch of peoples speculation on this https://twitter.com/Junichi_Masuda/status/925529817134465025
I’m like 99% sure it’s alolan forms and nobody except Gamefreak can convince me otherwise
Doubtful
people said the same about team rocket when masuda tweeted a vague tweet about that so now anything he tweets is under scrutiny not only that he seems to have been retweeting a lot of eevee stuff lately
Fair, but not EVERYTHING is a hint or tease. He does have other stuff to promote haha
i get that as well but the amount of eevee stuff has been a bit much for me to ignore the possibility plus 3 sets of eevee all in chronological order even if he was just taking a picture of a toy collection who keeps them all in order
Definitely hope there’s a good story behind ?RR? like definitely the part of the game I’m looking forward to the most! Also i might get back into battling a bit with the Battle Agency.
Character notes:
We have a double battle with someone using a Clefairy, and Hau seems to have a Noivern
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/049043734f438f7cfb94c430f04b3169a20469f5490d4c0561641240959e3cd9.png

For one second my thought that Alolan Clefable Might still be a possibility, but then I remembered we saw that it’s not the case. And also, isn’t it possible that the Clefairy is the player’s.
NOIVERN IS CATCHABLE YES
YOOOOOOOOOOOO
I’m guessing totem stickers replace zygarde cores
Kinda sucks because creating a bunch of zygardes was kinda fun
Ok listen honestly, there is one thing I seriously want in every Pokémon game moving forward
The ability to dress up as the other protagonists.
Because let’s be honest, Game Freak will never create a better female protagonist design than Hilda. She’s too perfect.
Oh and also let us cross dress because gold’s hat is cool af
Also let us wear evil team clothes. We did get that Skull vest.
Yes. All the yes,
especially Neo Team Plasma. If there is one thing they did right it was having some kickass costumes
Still want Omega Magmas’ hoodie. Actually a hoodie where I can actually wear the hood up would be nice.
Omg yessss I wanna b e courtney
I mean to be fair finger gun protag is actually the best protag design period
Yeah I want to cross dress honestly.
Animal Crossing, Tomadachi Life, Miitomo, Breath of the Wild, Splatoon, Mario Odyssey
All games that let you crossdress
And some costumes in Miitopia aren’t gender locked and straight up dresses (The Cleric class is about 50% Dresses)
I wish they did this for Oras. It would’ve been so great!
Everything here and more hair color options! I want to have pink and/or green hair!
https://twitter.com/joemerrick/status/926077957210361856
The funny part is that people are still saying this even though no one claimed that they didn’t have anything new in like 3 months
OH MY GOD IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW THE SOPHOCLES IN THE POSTER EVERYTHING MAKES SENSE NOW
https://twitter.com/adangarcia92/status/926085320231174144
I want to keep it this way after beating them.
They gave ownership of a high-powered facility to a kid, did they expect that a villainous organization would not take advantage of this opportunity and take it over. I mean it is not like a 10-year old kid can beat these villainous organizations bent on political corruption, eco-terrorism, global destruction, global domination, and etc.
Yeah there’s no way they’d leave the fate of the world to a 10 year old when there are powerful trainers all around. Sophocles is the worst, shame they didn’t “accidentally” kill him.
