Topic: Pokémon Sun & Moon - Discussion & Speculation

For the record, the website makes it clear that UB-01 and the other Ultra Beasts are NOT Pokemon.

Sun/Moon is giving off a Metroid Prime 2 vibe.

@IceClimbers That's too bad. Would've loved to see and use them in battle.

The story aims to be the most unique we've had yet. That's quite a step up from X/Y.

And the 12 hour difference, while cool, shouldn't be a defining factor since you can just change your 3DS time and play it the way you want.

Oh you'll probably battle them.

It wouldn't be the first time you battle a non-pokemon monster in the series.

About that text about it looking like a girl, it means nothing really, for all we know it could be imitating Lilly on purpose.

The thing that really gets me is Faba's official art. I mean how can that face not be hiding something?

Well that settles it, I'm getting Moon. I hope there's still a day / night cycle in the post game, though.

Between Type: Null and UB-01 they've broken through the glass floor for terrible names. I like the new designs, but these fools are getting nicknames.

And Pokemon Snap makes a comeback!?

With goggles like that, watch him have a flygon but just a Z crystal.

@Haru17 Day/Night cycle is a thing, but for Moon it will be 12 Midnight at 12 Noon in real-time. The Japanese trailer shows it being day in moon.

@MegaBeedrill Lol, that would annoy some people big time.

@Haru17 There's always a day-night cycle in both games, Moon's time of day will be offset by 12 hours. If you're playing during the day, it's night in Moon and if you're playing at night, it's day in Moon.

Interestiiiiiiing. Moon will be like playing a game set in another time zone. I wonder if there won't be time of day DRM.

Also, Wicke (or should I say .. Wicked!) totally looks like a young Dolores Umbridge, which automatically makes her and her organization completely evil.

I wonder if we'll get a UB-40..

I corrected it a while ago.

The name Vicia doesn't make her any more trustworthy.

@Tsurii @Meowpheel Faba is actually a species of bean too; Vicia faba, also known as broad beans. There's definitely a connection. Fabaceae is also the family of all bean plants. Thinking about it; a Lily is a plant too. Either that's just the common naming theme of all the characters, just like the professors are often named after trees, or there's some hidden connection between those characters.

The members of team skull are also named after flowers.

Faba looks like a more attractive Heinz Doofenshmirtz.

And now looking at it, Faba's goggles are bean shaped.

Long ago, before Sun and Moon were unveiled, didn't the creator give the word 'flowers' as a hint for what the next gen would be?

You're my favorite person for the rest of the day.
