Hello trainers, today we had a lot of new informations about Pokémon Sun & Moon!
As you can see in the new trailer, Alola will introduce us to a new concept in the Pokémon world, which is called "Microclimates" and allows the Pokémon to change their forms!
With this new feature, we'll have the return of some well-known faces, such like Exeggutor, Vulpix/Ninetales and Sandshrew/Sandslash!
Exeggutor changed its type to Grass/Dragon, while Vulpix/Ninetales and Sandshrew/Sandslash turned into Ice and received a new ability: Snow Cloak
And that was not all, today we also were introduced to some new Pokémon!
Gumshoos, the evolution of Yungoos.
Oricorio is a curious Pokémon that can change its form by sipping the nectar of some flowers, and it also can change its types! (Fire/Flying, Electric/Flying, Psychic/Flying and Ghost/Flying). Its ability is "Dancer" which copies dance moves.
Lurantis is the Totem Pokémon of Lush Jungle, the site of an Akala Island trial.
Minior is the new Rock/Flying Pokémon, its ability is Shields Down, with this ability, Minior will have excellent defensive capabilities as long as its shell is intact, it will also be protected from status conditions. But when its HP drops below half, its shell will break, and it will change to a form better suited to attacking.
And finally we have Mudbray, the Mudsdale's pre-evolution, this ground-type Pokémon has Own Tempo and Stamina.
Do you ever dreamed about flying in the back of your Charizard? Or cross the sea in the back of your Sharpedo? Now you can, with SM's new feature, the PokéRide!
To finish this post we have another new feature, the "Z-Moves"! The Z-Moves are utilising the special bracelet that trainers have. The Z-Ring fits on a Trainer’s arm, and Z-Crystals are set into it. If a Pokémon holds the same variety of Z-Crystal, the two will be able to resonate with one another. Crystals that correspond to each Pokémon type have been found in the Alola region. There are two conditions for performing Z-Moves: a Pokémon must learn a move of the same type as a Z-Crystal, and it must be holding the corresponding Z-Crystal. When you see these moves in action in the game, each overwhelmingly powerful move will be on full display, filling the entire screen! A special bit of merchandise for a Z-Ring will also be released which will light up in tandem with use on Sun & Moon.
