The official Japanese Pokémon channel on YouTube has uploaded a video of Mimikyu’s new Z-Move which is exclusive the upcoming games Pokémon Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon. It is accessible with a new Mimikyu Z-Crystal and powers up the move Play Rough to become Let’s Snuggle Forever.
In addition, Japanese and North American players can get the original-style Cap Pikachu with code PIKACHUM20 until November 23rd! This works even if you received a different Cap Pikachu during the previous event!
Darn it! I already got the original cap
Don’t worry. If they’re re-giving out the original cap then it stands to reason the rest will follow in due time.
To be honest, I’m not sure. This was a paid promotion in Japan so they may be giving it as a one-time thing for those who didn’t see the movie. I wouldn’t count on all the hats coming around again if this is redeemable separately from those.
this trailer is actually what Jessie always dream of, I hope we can see her mimikyu get z move in anime
Given the merch hints it looks like at some point they may receive a Z ring. So maybe she finds this Z crystal at some point too?
Well…huh. I guess I’ll download a second original cap Pikachu because I can? Since we’re on the topic, if anyone has any cap Pikachu that isn’t the original or Sinnoh I’d be interested. I don’t have much faith that the others will be distributed again.
I’ve got sinnoh! Just let me know when you want it 🙂
Do you have a spare Hoenn one???
I really need one but missed out on it!
Assuming you guys played USUM on a hacked 3DS, what do you think of the games?
Uptill the first trial only. Pretty much the same game. So disappointed uptill now. Good thing I’ve played sumo only one time so this is easier for me to through
Can someone tell me how all the totem stickers work?
All i know is they are everywhere. Way more than the zygarde cells.
I think you collect them and then are gifted the ‘mon when you get enough.
When start the Coverage Days?
When the games officially release.
Looks like I have two original cap Pikachu now. Does anyone want to trade me for a different cap? :p
If you have a Hoenn one I can trade you a Sinnoh cap! 😛
So apparently the new shiny method is true.

……ok this might be the best episode in the season

I guess Original Cap could be my Partner Cap Pikachu, since I couldn’t get that code.
Mimikyu’s Exclusive Z-Move
Mimikyu’s exclusive Z-Move is called Let’s Snuggle Forever! Mimikyu will be able to use this Fairy-type Z-Move if it knows the move Play Rough and is given a piece of the exclusive Z-Crystal Mimikium Z to hold.
Up until now, Mimikyu’s Play Rough could be powered up into the Z-Move Twinkle Tackle if Mimikyu was holding a piece of Fairium Z. Twinkle Tackle was a powerful Z-Move in its own right. But the Let’s Snuggle Forever Z-Move that can be unleashed in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon, thanks to the addition of the new Mimikium Z, is a hugely powerful move that outshines even Twinkle Tackle. Don’t let its cute appearance fool you!
When Mimikyu’s wishes are in sync with its Trainer’s, it comes up behind its target, enveloping it in the cloth that it wears. Then it uses its full power to show its opponent a little “tough love.”
Have Mimikyu hold a piece of Mimikium Z and use this new exclusive Z-Move to show your rivals that you’re on a different level!
Too bad it doesn’t have any additional effects…
…like setting up Misty Terrain or something
ergo a waste
Meh Mimikyu is prone to being burned…it would help… a little…
Imagine if it fixed Mimikyu’s Disguise if it was busted before using the move.
honestly it just helps with the sweeping. So it’s pretty cool. I love it! Mimikyu sweeps continues
I’ve been trying to hatch a shiny houndour for the past two weeks and its draining my soul. BTW it only took me a day to hatch a shiny chickorita :-{
ive been hatching wimpods since February
hat’s scary, i got until next friday then ill just have to stick with a normal one 🙁
Have you tried the Magikarp Method? Are you using the Masuda Method? Do you have the Shiny Charm?
Yes to the Shiny Charm, Yes to the Masuda Method, Magikarp method??
You Masuda breed Magikarp instead of the ‘mon you want as it hatches much faster.
Step 1: Have a foreign pokemon (preferably Ditto) and your Magikarp. Save before putting them in the daycare.
Step 2: Put them in and breed a box of eggs, DO NOT SAVE.
Step 3: Remove the Magikarp once you have a box and Hatch the eggs.
Step 4: Is there a shiny ‘karp in one of the eggs? Make a note of which number egg it hatched at, DO NOT SAVE. If there isn’t one then you can save and repeat from Step 1.
Step 5: Soft reset, this time put the ‘mon you want in with a foreign ‘mon (Ditto is still easiest). Breed eggs up to the one you got the shiny ‘karp at. This time it will hatch shiny in the same place as the ‘karp did.
Ditto is best because gender and egg groups are irrelevant. If I didn’t explain it very well I can find the better guide. There’s also stuff to do with egg rejection but it’s more complicated and mostly helps getting IVs, abilities and gender you want.
Hmmmm interesting, think ill try this when i go on break. Thanks
can i use Gyarados?
Yes, as all that matters is that the eggs will still be magikarp so they’ll still hatch fast.
okay thanks
last question, sorry if I’m being annoying. Do i have to take ditto and gyarados out of there isn’t a shiny?
You take one of them out after you’ve collected the eggs. This prevents any more eggs being generated which means you can save after hatching 30 eggs if you didn’t get the shiny. I advise occasionally smashing the big rock on the route below occasionally to get stardust should you run low on money.
Okay thanks again
So I am carefully thinking of typing up a little info box of stuff found in USUM and posting it up by later today. It will for the most part contain little to no spoilers, and may help some planing for teams and etc. If anyone thinks its an good idea, do tell.
Not a bad idea at all. I would greatly appreciate it if you do end up doing it.
I’ll think I’ll do it tonight then. It’ll have some tips too. But the main thing, where to post it lol was thinking Reddit but idk
Reddit is a good place. It won’t get lost and since it’s a helpful guide I’m sure people will appreciate it.
True just worried. A day ago some guy sent me a threat email from Disque for asking where Fire Punch move tutor was on here, hence I was and am syill a bit hesistant.
Sorry to hear that. I usually think of this as a safe place, I am assuming that he was not a regular here.
He didn’t seem to be, but its fine. Anyways, expect the upload here as a Google Doc, or as a reddit post that I may link to around 4ish hours (sorry, have classes and want to study a bit before doing this, the CVS is not an easy subject).
That is stupid, there is no reason for it at all. You only asked a simple question. I believe it’s island 2 btw.
YES pleas!!!
Yessss
FINALLY, you guys voted off Nanu. He gets 7th place. I dont see what you guys see in him. He’s so annoying, and just do your job you lazy man. Apparently, he was a hardish battle, but I didnt think he was that hard. I just didnt find him bery appealing.
You know the deal, vote for least fave 2.
6 Characters left!!
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1V-V_edp-qpKl7CAwSPZHXx31PPqkIRMruql1Vvn-9bg/edit
Nanu was the best character introduced in SuMo though…
How?He made it so far, but i dont see how
He actually does something in the story other than just be there for a battle (like the other Kahunas). He has a personality and an actual backstory…
and has a cool theme
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCIzHJhP8PY
none of my choices are getting eliminated lol
This has been a very frustrating poll for me…..There aren’t many characters in Alola that I actually don’t like. There are a few that I don’t care about and maybe one or 2 I don’t actually like. Other than those few tho most of them are pretty great
Thats kinda how I feel too, which is good. Have the characters you dont like been eliminated yet? Nanu is the last character I didnt really care for. Everyone else is pretty cool
Yeah the ones I don’t care for are gone. All the rest are cool in my book
Oh my god why is Guzma taking so long to get voted off -_-
Why are you taking so long to get voted off for your wrong opinion
https://media1.tenor.com/images/8a0b9c7111bb6306173023fe307e8d9c/tenor.gif?itemid=7441951
I guess that there is no need for me to light the Jungle on fire. At least for today.
Drew Hilda for the 5000th time but I’m not sure how I really feel about this one

Your favorite Z-Move now that we know then all? Can be Pokémon exclusive or just type general
That said, Let’s Snuggle Forever or Light That Burns the Sky
#2
Havent seeen the new ones in USUM, but so far, but probably Mewnium Z, it just looks so cool, TBH I love almost alll Z moves, they are all amazing looking. Good job gen 7
Uhhh
Idk
I like Alolan Raichu’s
Marshadow’s definitely
Also, I like how in Light that burns the sky the trainer gets tired after using it, like it really shows that is the ultimate Z-move
All-Out Pummeling, Inferno Overdrive, Sinister Arrow Raid, Marshadows’ and Lycanrocs’ are my top 5 I think. Haven’t seen the new ones.
Incineroars definitely. I am a huge wrestling fan so I was ecstatic to see a heel wrestler starter Pokémon. It being my two favorite types is a plus.
Speaking of Z-Moves, I feel that the exclusive Z-Moves actually feel like ultimate versions of their base moves. In Sun and Moon, whilst all the moves shared aspects of their original move, they don’t feel like a straight progression and just feel like another similar move or another way of using the same move.
*The USUM Z-Moves I mean
https://clips.twitch.tv/BillowingApatheticSageLitFam
Okay that has to be the funniest z move yet lol I really need to use a mimikyu in the future. That said who is everyone picking for their starter in USUM? I am picking litten no questions asked. Probably an unpopular opinion but I absolutely love incineroar. I may be biased though since I am a huge wrestling fan lol
I’m picking Popplio because I’m boxing it for Snivy and Feraligatr and I want Hau to have the fire starter.
Popplio is just the best choice anyways :3
Popplio is pretty good actually. And I may be tempted to use one of the other starters. Mainly treecko (easily my favorite Pokémon line of all time)
Treeko is amazing. Especially when it evolves and you can get mega sceptile
It was the first Pokémon I ever used so it holds a special place for me because of that. And I tend to use a different set than most people, I always have it as a physical attacker because of it having access to so many good physical moves plus leaf blade is an awesome move.
This is like the overly attached girlfriend that wants you for the sex one more time and dumbs you right after.
All I can think of about this z move are the vore jokes
What is that?
Don’t worry about it
If I had a trainer encounter theme I would want it to be this

Guzma phone home http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/001/199/534/d12.gif
What am I looking at ? because I can’t unsee it lol
Lil Guzma
Does anyone else feel like Zeraora is our first look at gen 8? or is it just me
It’s not
It most likely isn’t. That said it will probably star next year in the movie with a gen 8 pokemon
Same with Magearna
Pretty much! Now the question is will it be similar to Magerana or something else entirely
yea that makes sense
do we know how to get it yet? is it in game?
Its an event-exclusive like Marshadow was, but said event hasn’t taken place yet because its most likely for next year’s movie.
so scrap the idea of it being in my post game team, got it :/
Well i mean you can hack the game and add as many as you want lol
lol havent hacked a game since 3rd gen, ill just pokebank my thundurus lol
It’s a mythical
It will most likely be given it over WiFi I assume like all the other mythicals. Although I wish it was an item and we got to go catch it ourself :/ I miss that. They stopped after victini in gen 5 for some reason
yea i loved that lil side quest, hopefully they bring it back for gen 8
Hopefully but I am not holding my breath. I remember getting theevent items for shaymin and darkrai. Loved catching them then they just gave out arceus over WiFi because Masuda apparently felt the flute quest would confuse kids :/ then we got the victini event and that was the last time they let us catch the Pokémon on our own. Don’t get understand why they stopped it
Probably was too much for the younger players? too bad because people like us loved that aspect 🙁
I want that partly so I can choose what ball to catch it in. Even better if it wasn’t Shiny Locked.
No? If it’s in gen 7 then it’s not a gen 8 Pokemon. That’s kind of how it works. It’s just a weird mythical for Alola. Nothing more nothing less.
Well hopefully the lore behind it is good, since this the first time they just dropped in a new mythical mid gen
Prolly not haha
knowing GF lmao
It’ll either get a luke warm back story or it’ll get something that references areas that we will never be able to go and that’ll frustrate fans even more
Exactly sigh….:/
Exactly. I also think Magearna should have been Gen 6. It doesn’t fit Alola at all.
It wouldn’t be in the game if it were. It’s a Mythical and I look forward to knowing more about why.
Apparently in English, the Z in Z-Power comes from Zenith.
Is this a story thing………?
No it’s just some random text, the word Zenith itself just means ‘peak’
Hmmm I suppose that makes a lot of sense. The Z movies are the peak of power for any given move
So, if I’m getting this right, there’s only 1 Gym in the entire post-game and it sorta acts like a Cafe from Hau’oli City, where you rebattle the trainers daily? If anyone knows anything about this, help would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.
