Topic: Pokémon Sun & Moon - Discussion & Speculation

Still though, I'm convinced that mythology thing has some relevance to Ub-01.

I didn't put any stock in it. It was just some random headline.
I'd forgotten all about it until the person said inter-dimensional.

Anyone?

How should we know? We're as informed as you are

Ah history channel, almost as bad as natgeowild...

I'm just shiny hunting until sun/moon comes out, I was planning to start shiny breeding my team as soon as I finish the story, but I remembered "oh yea.. can't transfer until January, can't finish the national dex for shiny charm, and no perfect dittos..."

I guess its a good time for me to just try them out and see what they can do.

Meanwhile today I discovered leavanny is a special attacker now... so that's a thing.

In Pokémon ORAS I've been mainly Wonder Trading. After about an hour I got a Dutch Moltres!

I just used a gift card to preorder Moon from Amazon. I noticed they just removed the entire amount from my account instead of waiting until release like when using a credit card.

I wonder... If the price goes down before release (it did go down a few weeks ago)... Will they, like, add back the amount to my account... Or is that promotion only for credit cards?

@Meowpheel Amazon always gives you the lowest price an item was pre-release when you preorder it.

They don't charge you anything until the item ships, and you get the lowest price on preorder.

However, depending on your payment, there may be what's called a temporary "hold" that will charge your card, but it should be refunded soon, and then it will charge you again later when the item ships.

@Meowpheel lol I just preordered Sun.
@TheLegendOfLaser cool

Well, that second "event" of the demo was a letdown, LOL! I read that you can also better skip that one with the police man. Will still check it out though, for the 100% completion feeling of the demo XD

@Lynox yeah. Though it was pretty funny, despite being about 10 seconds long...

For those that have played the demo, how long is the initial playthrough/first day? I'm finally gonna have time to play it in a couple days.

@Tyranexx I'd say around an hour. There are a few other minor things you can do (and spend a bunch of time at the Pokémon-catching challenge if you wish) but I went through the main part of the demo in an hour.

If you already know whats in the demo, you can finish it in 20-30 minutes (I want to say I finished in 15 but that's a stretch). Of course there may be hesitation however as you look around the environment, usual rpg stuff.

Everything else like exploring, and the capturing quest are available after finishing the core part of the demo, they're just kinda there to do if you want.. nothing really special is gained unless you want to see 3 of the new pokemon for yourself.

@Tyrannex Like they said before, it's about 30 minutes, maybe an hour. There's also different sidequests that are optional.

So I should count on at least an hour then. Thanks for the input everyone! I'm still planning on waiting a while after Sun/Moon's launch to buy one of the two, and the demo will keep me busy.

They were already confirmed through data-mining.
