Pokemon Sun/Moon new info - Starter evolutions, Demo, Ash-Greninja
- Thread starter Not75Drops
- Start date
I think so. Especially since you need a knockout to make go to Ash form.
The answer is yes.
Yeah. I wonder if GF learned from the ORAS demo or not.
That was fast.
It's so adorable.

Yooooo multiple battle boxes and rental teams?
Looks like isle evelup (lol) is a replacement daycare that also lets you choose what stats get passively raised too...

Guess I'm going grass starter. I used to favor water, but I cannot stand the Poppilo line. I miss Totodile ;__;
This, though, is super cool. Didn't we just have a thread on how the time investment required to playing competitive pokemon was super high, and here this is!
They also updated the info page about Global Link, including some interesting new features like RENTAL TEAMS

What criticism? All I hear is whining cries over a huge feature.
And I thought people hated when Pokemon took stuff out in future games.
Seems like lore from hundreds of years ago.

Poplios evo is actually the best looking of the 3. 2nd stage however still goes to Rowlett for the archer motif.
So, Festival Plaza is what happens when PSS takes a page out of Entralink. Love it!
I'm guessing it's not quite as extensive as Entralink, and possibly less interactive, but it still looks fantastic. This whole "micro-MMO" environment is something Game Freak has been expanding ever since Gen 4 (Gen 3 if you count Union Room). I like their approach. This is exactly where Pokémon's communication features should head to.

Hopefully this time GF will know to scrub any data not related to the scope of the demo this time, otherwise everything will be leaked a month early.

I don't know why they create these amazingly detailed or unique and built up concepts and Pokedex entries if it never actually affects the game in any way. They should just put a little caveat at the end of entry with an asterisk and "None of this matters at all" next to it. I dunno if I'd consider it good world-building.
Don't bet on it.
Already? wow.
I like the mid evo. Better first impression than quilladin and the animations are cute.
I think you give GF too much credit. I await the leaks!

The Chespin line kind of did this. I think that Chesnaught looks more similar to Chespin than Quilladin.

Probably. Abilities can be passed down.
Looking at the Pelago image, there's one island we didn't see.
The top one is the one they find items. The top left is the one with the beans where new pokemon appear. The top right is a berry farm. The bottom left is the training one. The bottom right we didn't see. I wonder what they could put there.

Why introduce a bell element to the line, but then turn around and make it into a belt?

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
So fast!
Then I choose not to believe them.
I'm totally fine with the final evos of Rowlet and Popplio but Litten... Plz no :'(

And the TCG.
I'm surprised they didn't rework its lore. With the way this is phrased, it sounds like Ash-Greninja may be non-existent in the game canon. Unless the demo surprises us in some way.
In a sense, it seems that this form is indeed an "anime-only" thing... Except it also exists in the games mechanically.
Ash-Greninja has the best final starter design since Empoleon. Too bad they called it Ash-Greninja... that's quite silly. Delphox for sure needs a similar evolution considering how badly they messed up it's design. Braixen was so awesome
The grass and fire mid-evo look cool. The water one is meh, but at least the final evolution looks cool.

It sorta makes sense if you think of it like the bell on a collar when it's still a cat, but when it evolves the collar gets too big so it puts it on it's waist instead of neck.
No different from squirtle > wing ears and tail on wartortle > random canons on back blastoise.
...No seriously wartortle losing those ears and tail made no sense lol.

Hmm, I like all three of the middle forms, but Dartrix is my favorite. Brionne is the cutest though.
And why October 18th just release it now damnit.

I'm still liking Litten. I've also heard rumors that this gen will do something very different: Have different final evolutions for the starters depending on the version of the game.
