Pokemon Moon

CoroCoro has now published its own version of the new Pokemon Sun/Moon trailer from this week. It’s very familiar, though there is one very brief original scene towards the beginning which seems to show some sort of Pokemon (see the shot above).

Here’s the trailer:

This month’s CoroCoro has started to leak. Aside from what we saw a few days ago, there isn’t really anything new about Pokemon Sun/Moon. However, the magazine teases an exclusive scoop for next month’s issue, and claims itself to be the Pokemon Main Source for the news.

CoroCoro also has a feature on the new movie Volcanion and the Ingenious Magearna. The scan below shows new art and various clips from the trailer:

Capping off today’s Pokemon Sun/Moon news is the official website. Visit the page here. There’s not too much there at the moment aside from the starter Pokemon and first trailer, but it’ll definitely be updated leading up to launch!

A trailer for Pokemon Sun/Moon was published in Japan which is rather different compared to the overseas one. This one focuses less on gameplay, but still has some footage towards the end. Check it out below.

The Pokemon Company International has now followed up on the just-released Sun/Moon trailer with additional details about the games. Specifically, we have more on the three starters: Rowlet, Litten, and Popplio.

You can find the complete announcement below along with artwork. We also have the two boxarts above.

London, UK– May 10, 2016 – The Pokémon Company International has unveiled the first details of the highly anticipated titles Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon, starting with a first look at three new first-partner Pokémon and the packaging. Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon will launch in Europe on November 23, exclusively on the Nintendo 3DS family of systems.

Following in the tradition of previous games in the Pokémon series, players choose one of three special Pokémon to be their first partner. These are among the first Pokémon players will encounter in the game. In Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon, players will be able to choose between the newly discovered Grass- and Flying-type Pokémon Rowlet, Fire-type Litten, and Water-type Popplio.

For a Pokémon Trainer, knowing the Pokémon types and how they match up against one another in battle is vital. Grass-type Pokémon are strong against Water types, but weak against Fire types. Fire-type Pokémon are strong against Grass types and weak against Water types. And Water-type Pokémon are strong against Fire types, but weak against Grass types.

Meet the three new first-partner Pokémon that will join Trainers on their adventures in the upcoming Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon games!

Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon were announced at the end of February in celebration of the franchise’s 20th anniversary. Aside from some snippets of development footage, not much was shown. We also haven’t seen much of the games overall since then. Starting today, that’s starting to change.

The first Pokemon Sun/Moon trailer is now up, and it shows quite a bit. Rowlet, Litten, Popplio are confirmed as the starter Pokemon, and we also have a November 18 release date (November 23 in Europe). Alola is confirmed as the major region, and we’re also able to get a glimpse at the two mascot Pokemon.

Take a look at the debut Pokemon Sun/Moon gameplay trailer below.

We’re less than half a day away from some big Pokemon Sun/Moon news. Director Junichi Masuda promised information for early tomorrow, and has continued to make a big deal out of the event since then.

Masuda shared another brief update on his blog a few hours ago. In his post, he mentioned that fans should subscribe to the official Pokemon YouTube channel. One would have to assume that we’ll be getting a video (trailer) of some sort.

Regardless of what content is coming tomorrow, we’ll have it all here on the site!

In Japan, Game Freak has filed for a couple of interesting trademarks. The Pokemon developer registered the names “Solgaleo” as well as “Lunaala”. Folks are now speculating that these two could be the mascot starters in Pokemon Sun/Moon.

A trademark for “Gigareki” was also registered separately, but it’s not entirely clear what the name is for at present.

While it’s unknown if any of these trademarks are actually tied into Pokemon Sun/Moon, the possibility is certainly there. We can look forward to receiving official information on the two games within the next few weeks.
