A first trailer for Pokémon Sun and Moon is now available!
It will be released on November 18th 2016 in the US and Japan and November 23rd in Europe
Tha trailer shows us the new region Alola region and the three new starters: Rowlet (a Grass/Flying type), Litten (Fire type) and Popplio (Water type).

The official website is now live: http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/

rowlet_2.png

Rowlet can attack without making a sound! It flies silently through the skies, drawing near to its opponent without being noticed, and then lashing out with powerful kicks. It can also attack from a distance using the razor-sharp leaves that form part of its feathers.

Its visual abilities are impressive. The darkness of night is no obstacle to Rowlet! It can twist its neck nearly 180° from front to back so it can see directly behind itself. It has a habit of turning its head in battle to face its Trainer and receive instructions.

The move Leafage attacks an opponent by striking it with leaves. Rowlet knows this move from the moment it becomes your partner!

litten_2.png

Logical but also passionate, Litten always remains coolheaded and doesn't show its emotions on the surface.

Litten can attack with flaming hairballs! Its fur is rich in oils and immensely flammable. Litten grooms itself by licking its fur, and then uses the collected fur as fuel for fireball attacks!

When the time comes for Litten to shed its old fur, it all burns up in a glorious blaze.

The move Ember attacks an opponent by firing a small flame at it. Litten knows this move from the moment it becomes your partner!

popplio_2.png

Popplio's swimming speed is known to exceed 25 mph. It's better at moving in the water than on land. Still, when it's on land, it takes advantage of the elasticity of its balloons to perform acrobatic stunts and jumps.

Popplio can snort out balloons made of water! Watch it spin water balloons into a playful battle strategy!

Both frivolous and hard-working, Popplio can easily get carried away—unleashing enough power in battle to make quite a spectacle! But Popplio’s determined spirit means it can usually be found practicing hard on its balloon skills.

The Water Gun move attacks an opponent by firing a jet of water. Popplio knows this move from the moment it becomes your partner!

I get excited about it.

I enjoy that we'll have a grass/flying starter, I really liked the Moon version cover, and the new region looks pretty.

So does anyone else see any sort of similarities between this Mega Zord and the new Legendaries?

For me it's not a dilemma anymore since the Sun mascotte looks better than the moon one XD
As for the starter... that's a real dilemma!

Before the legendaries were revealed, I was leaning towards Moon. (I like dark stuff X))
Now that the boxart is shown, I can't help but think Solgaleo has a better, more solid design. So I might go for Sun.
I've always picked the "Former" versions in the end for some reason. (Ruby, Diamond, Black, Heartgold, X)

I love that it's taking place in Hawaii... if I can't visit the real one, I'll visit the hell of this one haha.

The moon legendary is why I'm getting Moon as of now. It's beautiful (though Sun's legendary is nice too, it reminds me of Entei).

Also, good job on all starters Game Freak. Props.
