Today, the Japanese Pokemon Youtube channel re-uploaded a video that introduces the Pokemon Bank and Poke Transporter applications for 3DS. What’s notable about this is that the video’s description was edited to reflect the fact that the update that will allow Pokemon Bank to work with Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon is now scheduled to arrive in January 2017, two months after the launch of the new generation of games. This update will also allow players to deposit their Pokemon from the Virtual Console versions of Pokemon Red, Blue and Yellow into the Bank.

Previously, no set release date for this update was announced, though perhaps many people assumed it would be available in late November alongside Sun and Moon. Still, this isn’t exactly a new occurrence as Pokemon Bank wasn’t available for the launch of Pokemon X & Y back in October 2013 either, instead launching in December 2013. Be patient, trainers, and make use of the Pokemon found in Alola until you can transfer over your old favorites!

Update 5 (9/14): Now up on Best Buy. Also, the previous Amazon links no longer work, so you’ll need to grab it here..

Update 4: And it’s back up. Use this link.

Update 3: And it looks to have already sold out on Amazon!

Update 2: This is now live on Amazon.

Update: Bumped to the top. You can now pre-order the Pokemon Sun/Moon Solgaleo Lunala Black Edition New 3DS XL at GameStop.

Original (9/13): Nintendo has announced a special New 3DS XL system inspired by Pokemon Sun/Moon for North America. On October 28, fans will be able to purchase the new design for $199.99. Neither of the new Pokemon games will be pre-installed, meaning you’ll need to pick up the games separately.

Nintendo of America’s senior VP of sales and marketing Doug Bowser said of today’s news:

“This year marks the 20th anniversary of the beloved Pokémon series and people have never been talking about Pokémon more. Playing Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon on this new Pokémon system is the best way for fans to show their love for this iconic series.”

Pokemon Sun/Moon both launch on November 18. A Pokemon Sun/Moon Dual Pack will also be available at retailers (separate from the Amazon-exclusive steelbook edition).

A few new images of CoroCoro have surfaced, showing the two forms (Day and Night) of Lugarugan. Thanks to Serebii’s translations, the pages also show at least some of the differences between the two forms, with the Day form learning a move (potentially called Accel Rock) and the Night form learning Counter. You can check out both pictures below:

This month’s issue of CoroCoro has started to leak, bringing the latest Pokemon Sun/Moon news with it.

First, we have news about evolutions for Rockruff. The Pokemon becomes Lugarugan and has a different appearance based on it evolves during the day or night. Rockruff’s day form occurs when bathed in the rays of the sun. When full of the night’s power, it becomes the night form.

We also have a look at two Ultra Beasts called UB02, UB02 Beauty and UB02 Expansion. UB02 Expansion is shown appearing in Pokemon Sun, facing off against Tapu Koko and UB02 Beauty up against Tapu Koko in Pokemon Moon. While UB01’s name is a mystery, it may have a deep meaning.

In non-gaming news, CoroCoro also provides a first look at the Pokemon Sun/Moon anime, which will be airing in November. Ash will receive a Z-Ring and meet the Melemele Island Guardian, Tapu Koko. During the show, Ash is going to school and his goal is to graduate “like never before”.

For its next issue, CoroCoro teases that the magazine will show the true strengths of Type: Null.
