I'm leaning towards Fire-Grass. Though it kinda looks like Nihilego and Xurkitree's child. If it's indeed based on a dandelion and it just happens to explode, then Grass/Fire is possible. Many speculate it's either that or Fire/Fairy. Fire seems to be a recurring guess, at any rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerson Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Popping in this morning to post about a poster we just got shown to us. Aside from the nice new art, we can see 2 specific things of oddity. Lillie is holding a Pokeball in the bottom left. Does this mean she's going to be a trainer in this universe? We've got some shadowy figures up at the top. They certainly look like they could be related to the Aether Foundation, but only time will tell.

The shady figures on top are very hard to make out, I have no idea who they might be. My excitement grows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konnor97 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Better look at the shadow figures at the top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 So Lillie isn't dead! That's actually kind of a relief. I thought she might've at least just vanished entirely because of that bridge scene at the start of Sun/Moon. In these new games, the player isn't there to save her this time, so... Maybe she's a rival this time along with Gladion? As for the shadowy figures, they do look like they have some connection to the Aether Foundation, yeah. Team Skull might play a smaller role too, since they're nowhere on the poster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konnor97 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 (edited) A theory I've seen for the mysterious figures is that they're from/have gone through Ultra Space. Edited September 18, 2017 by Konnor97 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Mir Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Looking at the poster is getting me curious, mainly Lillie-wise. First off, she's holding a Poké Ball. And there's her appearance - doesn't she change her hairstyle and clothes in Sun and Moon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Water Mage Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 One interesting thing I've noticed the mysterious figures is that there seems to be an older male, and older female and a child. Could they be a family? Sun and Moon does have human families as one of it's main themes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Water Mage Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 (edited) A new trailer was released, and it really caught my attention: I gotta admit, Mantine surfing sold the game for me. Also, some pictures from Serebii, which confirms that Marowak will replace Salazze as a Totem Pokemon. https://serebii.net/ultrasunultramoon/pics.shtml Edited September 22, 2017 by Water Mage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Water Mage Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I was rewatching the trailer when I noticed that when they showed the new Pokemon on the Alola Pokedex, there wasn't a single Gen 1 Pokemon. Guess they heard the complaints about too many Gen 1 Pokemon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightchao42 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I hope Larvesta is available early, Volcarona has been one of my favorite Pokémon since Black and White were released but I've never had the chance to use it. So Mina has a trial now, neat. Hopefully Primarina can't one shot the new Totem Pokémon like it can with Totem Kommo-o. Is Lillie taking the Trial Challenge now too? And though Club Penguin shut down earlier this year, it's nice to see that its surfing minigame lives on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punished Dayni Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 So, Larvitar is confirmed, Mina actually matters now and the surfing minigame is actually neat and it finally returns after almost 2 decades. OK, I might be more convinced about UM than I was before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moblin Major General Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 What is it with Houndour and Electrike have become, as of Gen VI, version exclusive Pokemon? I get that their both dogs, but why? Also, I hope Zorua isn't too late into the game, because I like using Zoroark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thane Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Could we get any glimpse of the story from this trailer? New dialogue from Hau and Lillie, but the former's line could've been said about anything while the latter's seem to happen in the exact same place she goes through her "transformation" in the original games.

I don't know, maybe because they need to find a few pokémons to force trade and those two happen to have a lot in common?

Not really, but the Japanese trailer shows Necrozma emerging from an Ultra Wormhole at the Alter of the Sunne/Moone. Also, according to a merchandise leak Necrozma's forms will retain Solgaleo and Lunala's types (so Dusk Mane is Psychic/Steel and Dawn Wings is Psychic/Ghost).

On that note, you'd have to take the staggering evolution level of 59 into account... (59 isn't the absolute highest evolution level, for the record, but it IS the highest evolution level for a Pokémon that only evolves once.)

Interesting. Many things seem to be very similar to the originals, like Lillie's scene at Aether Paradise. Of course, Necrozma appearing there is very, very different. Maybe we'll get a Platinum-like experience and chase after it in Ultra Space? I sure would love to explore more of that place than just a corridor. 6 minutes ago, Lightchao42 said: Also, according to a merchandise leak Necrozma's forms will retain Solgaleo and Lunala's types (so Dusk Mane is Psychic/Steel and Dawn Wings is Psychic/Ghost).

Also, it wouldn't be the first time a Pokemon that evolves late is available in the early game, Rufflet and Vullaby are available pretty early in the game. And on the subject of how early Pokemon are a available, Zorua seems to be an early game Pokemon, since it looks like it appears in the Melemele school grass.

You know, with no context, that makes more sense. I wonder what the player wants to win that Hau won't try to go after himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
