Pokemon Moon

One of the new elements in Pokemon Sun/Moon revealed today is the Poke Finder. The feature is built into the Rotom Dex, making it possible to take pictures of Pokemon at certain photo spots scattered throughout Alola. Pictures are evaluated, and you’ll unlock new functionality such as the ability to zoom in as you improve.

We’ve included some Poke Finder screenshots below.

Dexio and Sina, who were present in Pokemon X/Y as the professor’s assistants, are returning in Sun/Moon. The two will show up throughout the adventure as players progress.

At some point, after battling them, Dexio and Sina provide the Zygarde Cube. You’ll be asked to find Zygarde Cores and Zygarde Cells in the Alola region. Cores and Cells can be found across the world.

The Pokemon Company has issued an official press release about all of today’s Sun/Moon news. We have content pertaining to the new Pokemon, characters, Poke Finder, and time differences.

First, here’s some official art:

And the recap:

Today the Pokémon Company International and Nintendo revealed exciting new information for the latest games in the Pokémon franchise, Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon, coming to Europe on 23 November and available exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems.

Newly revealed Pokémon include:

Type: Null
Type: Normal
Type: Null is a Synthetic Pokémon which was constructed to synthesize the strengths of various Pokémon, making it adaptable enough to complete a mission that requires a Pokémon as strong as the Pokémon of mythology. The mask fitted to this Pokémon’s head is a piece of equipment designed to control its power. Type: Null is the partner Pokémon of a newly revealed character—Gladion, the taciturn enforcer of Team Skull, who places a high value on being strong in battle.

Over in Korea, a Pokemon Sun/Moon demo rating has popped up. The listing is specifically called “Pokemon Sun & Moon Special Trial Version”.

As far as when the demo is launching, that’s not yet known at the time. It’s also unclear if it’ll be a global release.

Japanese publication V-Jump stealthily released some new gameplay footage of Pokemon Sun & Moon today. However, it doesn’t show any new Pokemon or battles – instead, it shows a way to earn some money on Alola. The footage shows the male trainer undertaking a part-time job at a beach tossing some stranded Pyukumuku back into the ocean. Pyukumuku, a recently revealed new Pokemon, are slippery, slimy creatures that won’t budge from a spot they’ve taken a liking to, not even to hunt for food. To prevent them from starving, the people of Alola toss them back into the sea.

The gameplay footage shows exactly that – the trainer walks around the beach and interacts with the stranded Pyukumuku, clearing the beach of them. This turns out to be pretty lucrative – the trainer is rewarded with a whopping 20,000 Pokedollars at the end, which is quite a lot, especially early on in the adventure. If this part-time job is repeatable, this could turn out to be a pretty nice way to farm money.

Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon were featured at Gamescom this past week. Battle director Shigeki Morimoto stopped by to show off more of Battle Royal, and we also got a first look at the new Pokemon Turtonator.

To start off the segment, Morimoto said he was indeed the one who included Mew in Pokemon Red/Green. Despite not actually being obtainable at the time, he added it because it might be used in some way further down the line. When asked about his favorite Pokemon, he naturally went with Mew.

Morimoto was also asked which new Pokemon is the most interesting to him and the one would he like in his team. His response? Alola Exeggcutor is his favorite. Morimoto used it before and is looking forward to using it again in its new form.

A new Pokemon Sun/Moon trailer has just come online revealed even more Pokemon for the two games. Along with Crabrawler who we heard about moments ago, the new video shows Sandygast, Palossand, and Stufful.

Here’s the trailer:
