Seems like all three of them are related, I wonder who is the Father?

Interestingly enough, Type: Null is seen using Tri Attack in the english trailer, which is a move that R/B Normal Form MissingNo. can learn through TM.
I don't actually think that's going to be a thing, but it's just an observation.

Nice.
Also I hope someone can take the world map and start mapping each of these towns to it.

Be kind of cool if Null: Type is the error handling for RBY transfers.
Glitchy Pokemon trying to be transferred? Turns into Null: Type.
You could do some funky stuff with its move set if it kept the moves of the glitch.
I am guessing it is set 12 hours from your internal clock. So during the day wherever you live it'll be night, and during the night it'll be day.
They're set 12 hours apart, so if it's 3 pm in the real world (basically the time your 3DS is set to) it's 3 pm in Pokémon Sun and 3 am in Pokémon Moon. At least I think that's how it works, not entirely sure.

I love the hatchet Pokemon
GameFreak has gone off the deep end, and it's beautiful.
Some really cool stuff here - I love the concept of the UB Pokemon. Type: Null is dope too~
It's a ton of work for a relatively minor feature that has no real impact on the gameplay.

Why are people still so hung-up on this? It's gone and it's never coming back - just let it go already.

Type: Null seems like a reject Dark Souls design too.
- Type:Null is one of my favorite Pokémon designs this generation. I love it, straight into my team.
- Moon version adding 12 hours and Sun version taking 12 hours from your real time might be an interesting gimmick, I hope you can still catch the majority of Pokémon anytime and that the time of day only affects appearance rate, though.
- It seems like the game might have an actual story with some narrative outside of "this is evil person and this is your cover art legendary".
- The Aether Foundation are real villains and Team Skull will actually help you save Alola, I'm calling it. And it's a nice spin on the story formula from past games.
These games seem to be the right successors to Black and White, I haven't been interested in a new mainline game in quite some time. It's a shame that Game Freak didn't maintain consistency with things like mega-evolution, though, I feel like they shouldn't have included that at all if they didn't plan to keep introducing new ones in next generations.

Unless they resize them or don't allow a lot of Pokémon to follow you this isn't really possible on the current format. They would need a much more open world to allow Pokémon to follow you.

Seem's pretty possible for it to return on NX.

I can't pinpoint where but I swear I've seen really old artwork that has depicted creatures that look similar to Type: Null. I know I've seen a drawing of a fish tail, horse body and an underwater diving helmet combination somewhere before. Either way it looks interesting.
Curious what the point of Ultra Beasts will be if you can't catch them. Perhaps they will be used for boss battles and they have really high stats or something.

So Jangmo-o is bulletproof and soundproof?
Oh my, another organization.:O I love the two team concept via Team Magma/Aqua, so cool that they are exploring that again or such from the looks of it.
And that Null Pokemon is quite interesting.
Was wondering when that was coming around, so can't wait!

Sun doesn't take 12 hours away, if it did the time would be the same as Moon, just a different day. Sun just uses your normal time.

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
That doesn't make the earlier games "easier" though, you just level up faster here. Regardless of your level you can still overwhelm the gyms pretty much in other games. The problem with XY is that with all of the battle mechanics improvements, the single player wasn't accommodated for that.
usually 10th day onwards.
So Jangmo-o is bulletproof and soundproof?
Yeah, both defensive abilities but for different reasons

Now that makes sense, I saw some sites reporting that Sun took 12 hours away and I was having trouble processing how that would be any different than adding 12 hours gameplay wise lol
Rip Pixilate hyper voice.So Jangmo-o is bulletproof and soundproof?
Hey at least it took a gen for it to happen unlike protean and magician lol.
"New Pokemon Type: Null Announced"
They are going so off the wall with this game, it's hard not to be excited. Though I dislike that Moon basically has opposite time. I typically only have time to play at night, so I will effectively only be playing in the day. I have to wake up early to play at night. WHAT
So Jangmo-o is bulletproof and soundproof?
An offensive mon (if it is offensive) with Bulletproof would be really interesting. If it does end up being Dragon/Steel type you could have a decent defensive mon with only ok defensive STATs.

What does bulletproof do, steel immunity?
I think itll come back. Maybe not with Sun/Moon but eventually. Think about this.
After HGSS was BW. They couldnt do it because they used a new engine, and they would have had to make overworld sprites AGAIN for all the pokemon, just to be scrapped for Gen 6.
Gen 6 they had a new engine again. And a TON of other work to do.
Gen 7 is yet again another engine, but this time is actually to scale and seems to be forward compatible, at least with its scale. NOW they can start integrating overworld models again (as they have been). Allowing you to have your pokemon outside of its pokeball will return someday, theres no reason for it not to.
That would be super neat lol

Well I understand why it would be cool. Also from a design perspective its not all that hard to do now. Every pokemon has a battle sprite, and therefore has an overworld sprite that is incredibly similar. It appears that it may just be lower poly. They biggest issue from a design perspective is a walking animation.

I find the 12-hour shift to be exciting. It's not just a legendary that defines it, it's day and night.

Most likely
It makes it immune to ball, bomb, and cannon based attacks.
No, it's an immunity to a specific set of moves, works like soundproof.
This is where the localization changes for names throws a spanner in the works much like konami in the OG days of yugioh. There are a few moves with ball/bomb in their japanese name but not reflected in the english one.
The minor irony is that since I will mostly play at night and I'll likely be getting Moon, most of my game will occur in the day, so Moon will effectively be the day time version for me.

Nope. It's a lot more specific than that

Still not fast enough. I haven't seen a single piece of hentai from all the new characters.
