Topic: Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon discussion

The new trailer was kind of boring.

I remember liking the delta episode while it lasted, but to be honest I don't remember much about it beyond "blah blah multiple universes blah blah rayquaza blah shadow the hedgehog gijinka girl blah asteroid blah blah deoxys"

It removed Deoxy's mythical status. Not sure how I feel about that.

And yes that trailer might as well be just a still image about rockruff. Oh well I'm sure gamexplain will get about ten minutes out of it.

Then again the fight was in space. Your other pokemon didn't have a space suit so starting out with rayquaza makes sense.

Then again again, it's the same game where you can have your Numel fight underwater without seeing it dissolve into mud and solid bits of lava.

@Meowpheel Numel?

If you combine the box arts of both games, it reveals a silhouette with two eyes...

@Tsurii I think he meant Slugma.

That trailer only teased new things, and then showed off Dusk Lycanroc again.

They confirmed there's new buildings and landscapes at least. New areas is always a good thing. Also seems to be new cutscenes (the one with Alolan Vulpix).

Ok, the website actually confirms some details, including that Necrozma is connected to the plot and that there are new Z-Moves.

@Octane Numel is ground/fire, a bubble can kill it.

In the trailer it looks like a Rockruff is following the player like in HGSS. It could just be a random Rockruff running around, but if that's the case then why would that bit of footage be in the trailer?

It's definitely an npc pokemon.

There's a bit in the trailer with Ryuki in a building that looks like a recreation of the Vermilion gym

Ok, so are my laptop's speakers failing or is that remix of the song just bad quality?

Seems like everyone's interest in the series just dropped all around me, but I still love it. cant explain it, but I feel like pokemon is as strong for me as ever, even now. playing AS and HG at the moment =]

That Photo Club feature apparently takes up a couple of the empty plots from Sun/Moon.

After all the speculation lmao

I hope this game gets bad reviews.

Yeah, that region map pretty much clinches that this is a lazy, cash grabby third version. It's a copy/paste job with a black cloud on it, there's no new areas, no visible changes to old areas, it's just the same old Alola with the same old areas.

And bad sales. I think there's a very good chance that this could be the worst selling main game of all time, I think it could even dip under 5 million.

Huh did something happen? Did we get to see a detailed map of the region or confirmation that all the empty lots are photo studios?

Or is it this just a "ugh this children's game has girly stuff in it!!" moment?

They showed two new trailers without a single new Pokemon or even Alolan form between them. I don't care about photo mode, it's just side content like all of the studio stuff in BW and XY. The main of the game is what I'm exasperated over.

The biggest reason people reviewed Sun and Moon highly was because it ditched the freaking grid-based movement and level design, I mean come on! Game Freak suuuuuuck at making video games.

That trailer was intriguing, but it'll take more than that to raise my hype levels. The black cloud over the left-most island is mildly intriguing, at any rate.

If one doesn't reference the photographer from Earthbound (or his beloved catchphrase), I'll be very disappointed.
