New Pokémon, Final Evolutions of the Starter Pokémon and the Battle Tree

[Pokemon Trainer]

A new trailer for Sun and Moon is now available and show some new Pokémon, Alolan Forms and the Final Evolution of the Starter Pokémon.

Decidueye is the final evolution of Rowlet and its a Grass/Ghost type with the ability Overgrow.

This Pokémon is able to move about while completely masking its presence from others. Once an opponent has lost sight of it, Decidueye seizes the chance to attack it unawares. In a tenth of a second, Decidueye plucks an arrow quill from within its wing and sends its hurtling toward its target. Its speed is astonishing, but not more so than its precise aim, which enables the arrow quill to pierce a target through and through from half a mile or more away! Decidueye usually acts very cool, but it can become terribly flustered in unexpected situations like a surprise attack.

A skilled Decidueye can boast acrobatic curved shots. It seems some are also able to shoot arrows that reach up through the sky, only to come drilling down from above, piercing multiple targets one after another.

Spirit Shackle is a Ghost-type physical move that only Decidueye can learn. An opponent hit with this move will become unable to flee from battle or switch out for an ally.

Incineroar is the final evolution of Litten and its a Fire/Dark type with the ability Blaze.

As its fighting spirit increases, the flames that Incineroar produces within its body burst from its navel and waistline. Since the flames somewhat resemble a championship belt, they’re known as its “flame belt,” and the Pokémon unleashes moves that use flames from it. In the heat of battle, Incineroar shows no concern for its opponents—and sometimes even launches attacks that strike the opposing Trainer! As a result, many tend to dislike this Pokémon and keep it at a distance.

If a crowd watching it battle is pumped up, Incineroar’s fighting spirit will burn brighter. But a lackluster crowd can make it lose focus or fight shoddily. When it receives the admiration of young Pokémon and children, it may keep up its cold attitude on the outside, but in its heart of hearts, Incineroar is immensely happy. It loses the desire to fight when faced with a Pokémon that’s clearly weak or injured, and it sometimes gets taken advantage of as a result.

Darkest Lariat is a Dark-type physical move that only Incineroar can learn, and it allows Incineroar to deal damage while ignoring the effects of any stat changes that the target might otherwise be affected by.

Primarina is the final evolution of Litten and its a Fire/Dark type with the ability Torrent.

As it dances, Primarina releases balloons of water into the area around itself, moving them using the sound waves from its voice. The sight of moonlight reflecting off its glittering balloons creates a magical scene. Since Primarina controls its balloons using its voice, any injury to its throat can become a grave problem. Its greatest enemies are arid environments and the overuse of its voice during back-to-back battles.

Among the balloons that Primarina releases, some explode when touched, while others do not. Primarina jump on the non-exploding balloons while they make sport of their opponents, and they use the exploding variety to trigger chained explosions!

Primarina’s songs have many variations, and each one changes the motions of the balloons. It has been observed that songs are shared among Primarina living together, so different colonies end up knowing different songs.

Sparkling Aria is a Water-type special move that only Primarina can learn, and it heals the burns of any target it strikes.

Tapu Lele is a Psychic/Fairy type with the ability Psychic Surge.

There is a legend which says that long ago Tapu Lele once brought an end to war between the islands of Alola by scattering its scales and soothing the tired warriors.

Tapu Lele scatters glowing scales that physically affect others—providing stimulation to their bodies and healing their illnesses or injuries. But these scales can be dangerous as well, because a body can’t withstand the changes brought about by contact with too many scales at the same time. It will scatter its scales over humans and Pokémon for its own enjoyment; while it is innocent in one sense, there is also cruelty in the way it casually brings others to ruin.

If Tapu Lele doesn’t have much energy stored in its shell, it may lack the strength to seize victory in a head-on battle. With this in mind, it tends to prioritize not losing a battle over actually beating a foe, and it’s skilled at strategies such as inflicting status conditions on opponents.

Nature’s Madness slams a target with all of nature’s rage, reducing the target’s HP by half. Psychic Terrain is a move that no Pokémon was previously able to learn, and using it will boost the power of any Psychic-type moves used by Pokémon on the ground and prevent them from being hit by priority moves.

Tapu Lele’s Ability is Psychic Surge, an Ability that no Pokémon has previously had. With Psychic Surge, the field will be turned into Psychic Terrain when Tapu Lele appears in battle, boosting the power of any Psychic-type moves used by Pokémon on the ground and preventing them from being hit by priority moves.

Tapu Bulu is a Grass/Fairy type with the ability Grassy Surge.

Tapu Bulu has the power to manipulate vegetation and cause it to grow. It can use this power on its own horns—which are made of wood—changing their shape or making them larger. This can come in handy in battle! This stolid Pokémon is not very active. People’s opinions differ on whether it’s as docile as it seems, or if the reason it doesn’t move much can be chalked up to simple laziness.

Tapu Bulu does not like unnecessary battles or frightening other Pokémon. Because of this, it makes a loud ringing noise with its tail to alert those nearby of its presence. Although Tapu Bulu may not like to start battles, it shows no mercy when dealing with evildoers. It’s said that when thieves once broke into its ruins, it punished them by swinging trees around like massive clubs.

Tapu Bulu can learn Nature’s Madness, an attack that slams a target with all of nature’s rage, which reduces the target’s HP by half.

Tapu Bulu’s Ability is Grassy Surge, an Ability that no Pokémon has previously had. With Grassy Surge, the field will be turned into Grassy Terrain when Tapu Bulu appears in battle, boosting the power of any Grass-type moves used by Pokémon on the ground and restoring a bit of HP to them each turn. It also halves the damage taken from the moves Earthquake, Magnitude, and Bulldoze.

Tapu Fini is a Water/Fairy type with the ability Misty Surge.

This Pokémon is able to create a special water that purifies both mind and body. But Tapu Fini requires that supplicants wishing to obtain the purifying water demonstrate the strength to withstand the tapu’s fog. Many humans have tried to withstand Tapu Fini’s fogs in pursuit of its purifying water. Among them were some with evil intentions, which may be the reason for Tapu Fini’s sense of disgust and lack of interest in appearing to people.

Tapu Fini is able to attack by manipulating water. Since it hates to risk harm to itself during battle, it prefers to create a thick fog that puts opponents in a trance and leads them to destroy themselves. Tapu Fini’s expression remains listless even when it’s unleashing moves. Some people say that it might look this way because using its moves is so exhausting. The Pokémon's Nature’s Madness attack slams a target with all of nature’s rage, reducing the target’s HP by half.

Tapu Fini’s Ability is Misty Surge, an Ability that no Pokémon has previously had. With Misty Surge, the field will be turned into Misty Terrain when Tapu Fini appears in battle, halving the damage taken by Pokémon on the ground from Dragon-type moves and preventing them from being afflicted with status conditions or confusion.

All the Tapu share an unique Z-move: Guardian of Alola.

When using this Z-Move, the tapu close their shells and a huge avatar appears from the ground to attack the opposing Pokémon, dealing damage equal to 75 percent of the target’s remaining HP.


Cosmog is a Psychic type with the ability Unaware.

This extremely rare Pokémon is known to only a select few in Alola. At one time, it was known only by the kings of Alola and their heirs, and it was called “the child of the stars.” The Aether Foundation is researching this unusual Pokémon, and one of the professors at the foundation recently dubbed it Cosmog.

Cosmog is very curious and shows no fear of people or Pokémon. If you treat it with any consideration at all, it will take an immediate liking to you. This personality trait often leads it into danger.

Its gaseous body is so lightweight that it’s sent flying when the wind blows. When light falls on this Pokémon, Cosmog absorbs it and grows.

Alolan Persian is a Dark type with the ability Fur Coat / Technician.

The round face of Alolan Persian is a symbol of the rich Alola region, and it is held to be a Pokémon of great beauty. It is such a distinctive Pokémon of the Alola region that all Persian are well protected, and strict inspections are required before tourists can be permitted to take one back to their home region.

Persian is highly intelligent, with an even higher opinion of itself. In general, it looks down on everything other than itself. It doesn’t tend to grow attached to its Trainer, either, so it’s a difficult Pokémon to have as a partner in battle.

Its exquisite coat shines with the glow of high quality and enchants both humans and Pokémon. For this reason, it is a very popular Pokémon in the Alola region.

It usually puts on a refined act, but once a battle begins, it will indulge in the most underhanded of tactics, including surprise attacks, trickery, and even foul play. Yet its haughty personality causes it to underestimate its opponents, and it’s often taken in by their counterattacks.

A new feature, the Battle Tree si a place where those Trainers who have completed their island challenge—or who are strong enough to have done so—battle one another.

In the Battle Tree, you can scout an opponent you've won against so they can partner with you in future battles.


In Alola there isn't a Pokémon League yet but but it seems that there are plans to construct one.

• Can't pronounce the Rowlett's final evo's name... Definitely did not expect it to change to a Ghost type!
• Incineroar looks awesome! So glad that it's a Fire/Dark!
• Primarina is beautiful! I'm also glad that it's part Fairy, but part Psychic would have been OK too!
• I can finally tell what Tapu Lele is supposed to be! FYI butterfly...I think...
• I'm surprised Tapu Bulu is grass and not fire! But it still works!
• Also surprised Tapu Fini is water and not Ghost! Especially since we have Primarina who's also Water/Fairy.
• I love how they become the head of the guardian thing in the Z-Move
• "The round face of Alolan Persian is a symbol of the rich Alola region, and it is held to be a Pokémon of great beauty." BEAUTY!? What they be smoking there in Alola!?
• CYNTHIA!!!! I hope she has Mega Garchomp!
• Seems like the whole leak was true! We be building our own league!

 

[Diehl]

While a bit disappointed for Decidueye being a ghost type, I can't deny that it looks really cool, this will be my starter, after all.

The new Pokémon, hmm... None of them called my attention. Ok, Cosmog looks curious, but I don't think I will take it on my team.

Red, Blue, Cynthia... Ok, where is Iris?

For sure they are smoking XD that Persian is scream ugly everywhere but maybe we not from Alola can't understand they tastes!
I'm happy to see Cynthia! And she is the same as always!
That leak was true!

Red, Blue, Cynthia... Ok, where is Iris?

Maybe she is in the game but we don't know about her for now?

And... I already wrote it everywhere but... I don't like this new Red...

 

[...]

Lots of sinnoh references over the last few months, and now cynthia.

Diamond/Pearl remakes confirmed for 3DS/Switch!!

 

[unownzone]

Although I've seen all of the new Pokemon in the trailer, I really have to comment about how excited I am to see them in battle!
All the new starters have their own Z-moves XD Decidueye is part ghost type XD I wonder what use Primarina's Z-move will be used for if it can heal burns. Maybe it could mess up an opponent's plan to use flame orb haha

The island guardians are so interesting too!

I wonder what cosmog has to do with the legendary Pokemon. Some people say cosmog is Lunala's pre-evolution but I don't think it will be that absurd.

Alolan persian gets the fur coat ability, which I believe was for furfrou in XY. Maybe we'll get to see some competitive use of that raised defense?

Finally,,,, Cynthia got a 3D model!!! XD haha
Nobody's giving love to Wally because it's not been long since we've seen him last XD

RED and GREEN are BACK!!!!!
I have to say, the artwork isn't that satisfying, but the fact that they've come back is just so astoundingly exciting XD
I hope they get at least a minor role in the post-game. I would be disappointed if they're just battle opponents XD

"Still as silent as ever? Huh?" lol Game Freak knows its a joke now hahahaha

finally all starter pokemon final evolution revealed

 

[Pokemon Trainer]

I wonder what cosmog has to do with the legendary Pokemon. Some people say cosmog is Lunala's pre-evolution but I don't think it will be that absurd.

I think they aren't related... Diancie and Carbink are similar but it's not that Carbink evolve into Diancie. So I think it will be the same this time

 

[TintjeMadelintje101]

Whee, I'm so exited
Really glad that Incineroar is no other Fire/Fighting but Fire/Dark !! Now I'm sure to pick Litten !!
Also I kinda am ok with the new look of Red and Blue, they look like their there only for a small vacation cause if you look at it, Red looks loads more adultish and Blue somewhat the same... well more feminine but whtvr, BUT seeing Red and Blue back is SOO great !!

 

[Diehl]

Blue somewhat the same... well more feminine

I agree with you. xD

Well, maybe Blue is now a professional cyclist... It would explain those sunglasses and those tight pants. xD

 

[unownzone]

I agree with you. xD

Well, maybe Blue is now a professional cyclist... It would explain those sunglasses and those tight pants. xD

I didn't think Blue's shorts were that tight... haha it just seemed like the standard pants thickness for Ken Sugimori art...

I was more focused on Red because those are the most realistic skinny jeans of all Ken Sugimori jeans haha

 

[Diehl]

I didn't think Blue's shorts were that tight...

I was trying to get an excuse for those clothes that he is using.

 

[valle]

These final revelations majke a lot heavier to choose the starter!! tapu lele ability can be very useful in VCG! But the very best thing is rosso and blu to come back!!!

 

[Pokemon Trainer]

rosso and blu to come back!!!

Red and Blue, right?
I still don't know what to say about them XDD

 

[valle]

Red and Blue, right?
I still don't know what to say about them XDD

i meant red and blue

I agree with you. xD

"I like Shorts! They're easy and comfy to wear!"

 

[TintjeMadelintje101]

Haha yeah xD
