Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon

[TheDreamingHawk]

Will be done via Pokemon Transporter like with BW/BW2. Pokemon from Gen I will be given some special marking that makes them only work with SM but like with the normal bank support they won't release it until January due to a BS "Magic experience"

Man, I'm really wanting to know what the tertiary legendary is now, ESPECIALLY since there's a pseudo-Arceus in the game. I imagine it would be rather powerful, given the apparent power in this...thing...?, (the tertiary, that is) maybe something to do with eclipses?

Arceus Lite (Silvally) is (probably) not a legendary or a mythical, as far as I can tell. No legendaries and no mythicals evolve to or from anything (although Manaphy cannot breed true).

With that being said, I'd bet all my socks that the third, cover-like legendary represents the stars.

I hope so because that'd be the perfect legendary for me.

yeah, because if Sun and Moon has shown us anything it's that it's not breaking any typical Pokemon conventions whatsoever

Demo drops tomorrow!

I'd say that Sun and Moon are breaking convention by not introducing any Mega Evolutions, but then again, Contests have disappeared for several generations. (Game Freak is willing to remove major new features from future generations.)

On the other hand, I remember calling it back when they were showing a "new green Pokemon" in a trailer back before Magearna was introduced, and remembering that Game Freak never releases new Pokemon mid-generation, I correctly predicted that the "new mon" was actually a Zygarde form.

...What I got wrong was predicting there would be a Pokemon Z game. Maybe Sun and Moon were made partially because Zygarde's new forms got that difficult and bloated to implement...

Mega evolution was introduced a few trailers ago. Unless you mean any new mega evolutions...

Sorry, I meant new Mega Evolutions. It's tough predicting which major new features Game Freak removes from future generations, and considering the popularity of Mega Evolutions, I'm still surprised they effectively got replaced by Alolan Forms.

Not yet, probably because it really isn't a big deal. If anything, it'll be like GSC where the genders/other changed features will be assigned randomly based on some coding and whatnot.
