Amazon is offering an exclusive “Steelbook Dual Pack” for Pokemon Sun/Moon. It’s priced at $89.99, though Prime members can nab it for $71.99. Orders are now up here.
The Pokemon Sun/ Moon Steelbook Dual Pack naturally contains both games. You’ll also receive a collectible Steelbook case with a purchase.
Here are a few photos:
Something similar was announced for Europe last month. Nintendo will be making “Pokemon Sun/Moon – Fan Editions” available which also contain copies of the game and a Steelbook. However, they’re individual items as opposed to a bundle.

Pokemon Sun/Moon – Kiteruguma and Mimikkyu revealed
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 73 Comments
Update 2: Bumped to the top. Added in a couple more scans.
Update: Correction – Mimitsukiyu’s name is actually Mimikkyu.
A pair of new Pokemon have been revealed in this month’s issue of CoroCoro.
First up is Kiteruguma, a Normal/Fighting creature with Fluffy and Klutz abilities. We also have a look at the Ghost/Fairy Pokemon Mimitsukiyu. This one has the ability called Disguise.
CoroCoro says that those in Alola are scared of Kiteruguma to the point of having warning signs about it. Because of its strength, it can break anything in two. It likes to hug its trainers, though raising one puts your life in danger.
Meanwhile, Mimitsukiyu hates sunlight and prefers dark places. The cloth covering its body is rumored to be a strategy to avoid the sun. If someone tries to remove the cloth, it’s said they’ll become afflicted with an illness.
