Spoiler

Marshadow's obv gonna evolve. That form right there is the "pre-evo" thing like the other two got.

Probably won't see what it is until the third version or if they pull a Zygarde... Gen 8, lol.

Spoiler

My boy Raichu's looking clean with its Shiny version

 

[AreJay25]

You can't be serious.

Spoiler

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

I must say

I love Alolan Persian, It fits the whole raised by rich people thing Meowth has

 

[Swamp Sensei]

You can't be serious.

Spoiler

...

I don't know whether to scream or laugh.

 

[Radical Bones]

You can't be serious.

Spoiler

That is the greatest shiny sprite I have ever seen omg.

 

[N3ON]

When Shy Guys and Toads hook up, terrifying things happen.

Spoiler

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Shiny Alolan Muk actually looks better

Maybe just because I like purple

 

[Aurane]

Spoiler

My boy Raichu's looking clean with its Shiny version

Spoiler

Is he sitting on his tail or are his feet majorally clipping? It looks strange.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Shiny Alolan Muk actually looks better

Maybe just because I like purple

Its shiny may make me pick him up

Also because I like purple. Hate the pokemon, like the shiny color

 

[Rebellious Treecko]

You can't be serious.

Spoiler

The original coloration became recessive (is that the word) when the species mutated, I guess. Interesting.

Part 3

 

[AreJay25]

Part 3 is up.

Spoiler

Edit: 'd

 

[Aurane]

Spoiler

Shiny Wimpod Evolution is the greatest thing ever.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Oh my god. I did not expect Alolan Persian to become a grumpy cat that loves Lasagna and hates Mondays. But I love it and am about that life.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Spoiler

One anon said about the Shiny UB's

"They're just there so the game doesn't crash if hackers try to force them shiny during an encounter"

If there were REALLY the case, why not just copy the regular forms AS the shiny forms instead of taking the time to recolor them?

Spoiler

Shiny Wimpod Evolution is the greatest thing ever.

I like regular better because it's purple

 

[Yellowlord]

Spoiler

So... May as well pick some of my favorite shinies from the video with my top 5 listed:

1. Rockruff and Lycanroc evolutions

2. Wishwashi Regular and School Form

3. Stufful and Bewear

4. Popplio's final evolution (Entermaid)

5. Sandygast and Pallosand

I will admit right now that I am disappointed in Kommo-o's shiny form and its pre-evolutions shiny forms. It's just... not good looking. I'll be sticking with the default colors when I get it placed on my team.

 

[N3ON]

Spoiler

I feel like Komala probably should've gotten an evo. Maybe same with that weird ass sea cucumber.

Also would've been nice to get some prehistoric Pokemon as well as the return of the supporting legendary trio.

The starters are a little disappointing, but not my least favourite group. I had high hopes for Litten (as I also did for Fennekin), but for the second gen in a row I'm going with Grass. *sigh*

Overall not a bad batch. They rank somewhere in the middle for me. There are only around a half dozen lines I like, but it's pretty much been that way since Gen III. Still not big on the Alolan forms. Just gimme new Pokes instead plz.

Part 3

Spoiler

Black and white Mimikyu.

Yes.

That is fantastic.

Welp, that's it. Until Gen 8, folks.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Now I wait for news on typings....

I must know.

 

[powerprotoman]

Opossum
welp looks like i win opo my goal was over 80 new pokemon and thats been attained even if its by a small amount

Spoiler

seeing as we have 82 new pokemon according to the pokedex according to this person who was datamining
https://twitter.com/GoddamnItGavin/status/788269649569775616 also if we count alolan pokemon(which most people do thats another 18 so looks like we got 100 new pokemon after all

 

[Opossum]

So with this information, my almost-final-team-update! I may alter one more time once I know types and such.

Spoiler

Entermaid
Toucan Sam
Lurantis
Mudbray
Oranguru
Pyukumuku

I decided not to use a Fire type this gen, mainly since Pyukumuku's been growing on me.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I want to know what that ...bubble spider is

I kind of want it on my team

If it's bug, Wimpod's evo is bug, and Vikavolt is bug

I'm going to have a major rock/ fire weakness

 

[Mythra]

Spoiler

Alolan Persian is best Nermal

 

[Soul.]

So, now all I need is base stats, Hidden Abilities, moves etc.

Version exclusives maybe.

If there is no good Electric-type Pokémon to use during the main game I'm using Raichu.

 

[Yellowlord]

Some food for thought and a question (spoilers ahead).

Spoiler

So it seems like Komala, Pyukumuku, and Braxish do not have evolutions. That's kinda disappointing if you ask me since this may mean we will barely see them have usage in battle. It's a shame, but oh well. Do you guys believe that what we have seen is it or could there possibly be at least one evolution for these Pokemon? It would be a shame if they became forgotten.

Who knows? Some things may of been removed. It's entirely possible.

 

[Radical Bones]

Now I wait for news on typings....

I must know.

Spoiler

I wonder if Crabrawler's evolution is Fighting/Ice, seeing as it looks like a yeti.

 

[Deleted member]

So... I think this will be my team for Pokemon Sun:

Spoiler

Robingroot
Lycanroc Midday Form
Vikavolt
Wimpod
Alolan Marowak
Silvally (If I can get it)

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Spoiler

I wonder if Crabrawler's evolution is Fighting/Ice, seeing as it looks like a yeti.

So, he can dish out a hit but can't take one

Explains the eye

Except those weren't your original terms, these were.

so im going to put out my minimum to maximum predictions for sun and moon pokemon
to be honest i think were going to get 100-133 new pokemon (and 20-30 new alolan form pokemon)

am i being optimistic on the alolan pokemon? not really going off of the fact we know alolan muk and persian exist we have 12 alolan pokemon currently not a stretch to assume 8 more could show up

See that bolded word? Meanwhile I was saying 80, or a bit more if UBs were included. Sooo...



...also how could you have "won" if it was never a contest?

 

[Aurane]

There's Vikavolt and Oricorio Pom Pom but honestly you should go for Alolan Raichu. I know I am. ****ing magic pancakes yo.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Please let the Gen VI EXP Share be back.

I want to raise a team of twenty again.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

My "main" team

Spoiler

Turtinator
Bubble Spider
Wimpod Evo
Vikavolt
Snowslash
Lycanroc Midnight

 

[N3ON]

So I guess I'll go with

Spoiler

Rowlet evo - Grass/Flying
Lycanroc Night - Rock
Jangmo-o evo I don't know the name of - Dragon/Fighting
Wimpod evo - Bug/Water (?)
Salandit evo - Fire/Poison
Alolan Ninetales - Ice/Fairy

That's how you cover the spread.

 

[Rebellious Treecko]

I want a Grass/Fire type. :<

apparantly im an idiot regardless because

Spoiler

it turns out that its 802 counting alolan pokemon as such we are back to both of us being wrong because 18 of the "81" pokemon are alolan forms

 

[Mythra]

Guess I finally have a team.

Spoiler

Luchalitten
Vikavolt
A-Exeggutor
A-Muk
Kommo-O
Steelix (If available, if not; Wimpod Killer Machine or Spider Metroid)

 

[Yellowlord]

An important question and my planned team.

Spoiler

Is it possible for someone to confirm with the dataminers or some other source if that's all the Pokemon we're getting? I'd love to know if there are some more Pokemon coming our way in the near future besides the ones that were datamined (I meant to mention that Minior needs an evolution alongside the other Pokemon I mentioned before like Pyukumuku, Komala, and Braxish).

Planned Moon team:
-Popplio's final evolution (Entermaid or the confirmed final name)
-Vikavolt
-Wishiwashi (or if I decide to have only one water type with my starter, replace Wishiwashi with Crabbrawler's final evolution or Tsareena).
-Alien bug thing or the sea spike thing depending on their typings and what they look like in-game. If I don't like any of their typings or appearances after seeing them in-game, replace them with Wimpod's evolution or Salandit's evolution.
-Kommo-o
-Oranguru

 

[Radical Bones]

Okay, I'll play the game too. If I were to make a team with only new Pokemon from Sun and Moon it would be:

Spoiler

Rowlett Evo
Lycanroc Midday
Alolan Sandslash
Pshhhh I dunno I need a Water type in here but none are really doing it for me.
Passimian
Ribonbee maybe? Geez. I'm struggling here.

Actually, screw it, I'm using all Alolan forms.

...still don't have a solid Water type.
