Pokemon Sun

One aspect of today’s Pokemon Sun/Moon coverage that isn’t receiving a whole lot of attention pertains to the Pokemon Global Link. There isn’t anything about this in the new trailer, but the official website has a page tucked away about the new version planned for launch on November 18.

Here’s everything you need to know:

A New Version of the Pokémon Global Link

The Pokémon Global Link, the website that links to Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon, is due to be updated and reopened on Friday, November 18, in sync with the launch of Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon.

With the release of Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon, the Pokémon Global Link—the website that connects Pokémon players around the world—will end its current Pokémon Omega Ruby, Pokémon Alpha Sapphire, Pokémon X, and Pokémon Y service and will be updated to work with Pokémon Sun andPokémon Moon. New functions added in the update will let you enjoy Pokémon battles even more!

In the latest episode of Nyannyan Neko Mario Time, Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon were briefly featured. There was a tiny bit of footage showing Alolan Exeggutor, and we’re actually able to see the new move known as “Dragon Hammer”. In the gameplay clip, Exeggcute was taken down in a single hit.
