This game will follow the popular Pokmon X and Y which launched on the 3DS back in 2013 so its about time we got a new title which would be the seventh generation.
When Pokmon Sun and Moon launches, it will be available globally and in nine languages with Nintendo adding traditional and simplified Chinese alongside other options such as English, Spanish and Italian.
Nintendo hopes that Pokmon trainers will be able to overcome language barriers and be able to communicate with each other better over the internet.
When first announced the Japanese gaming outfit didnt mention anything in the way of new Pokmon for Sun and Moon although thats inevitable and there was little in the way of other announcements. Are Pokmon going to act differently or be able to use different moves during the day or at night? We dont know but the name suggests something along those lines.
A feature called Pokmon Bank will mean that players can transfer any of their Pokmon from the original trio to Sun and Moon which is pretty cool.
At E3 2016 a new battle format called Battle Royal was announced forPokmon Sun andPokmon, wherebyfour Trainersbattle at once. Each chooses three Pokmon, with one entering the field at a time, and it"s all over when all three Pokmon of any one Trainer have fainted. The remaining Trainers are then ranked.
Pokmon Sun and Moon: Starter Pokmon
Following on in the tradition of previous Pokmon games, players will have to choose one of three special Pokmon to be their first partner in Sun and Moon. In this version ofPokmon you"ll pick between newly discovered Rowlet, Litten, and Popplio.
As usual, they follow the format of grass, fire and water and you can see details of each below.
The first of the potential partners is the highly adaptable Grass Quill Pokmon, Rowlet. This Pokmon can fly silently through the skies, sneaking up on its opponent without being noticed. It can attack its opponents using powerful kicks, and it can also attack from a distance using the razor-sharp leaves that form part of its feathers. Rowlet can survey its environment and turn its neck nearly 180 degrees from front to back, so it can see directly behind itself. When in battle, Rowlet turns its head to face its Trainer when waiting for instructions.
Name: LittenCategory: Fire Cat PokmonHeight: 1" 04"Weight: 9.5lbsType: FireStarting Move: Ember
The cool-headed Fire Cat Pokmon, Litten, is the next choice for a first-partner Pokmon. Littens fur is rich in oils and is immensely flammable. It constantly grooms itself by licking its coat, collecting loose fur into b***s. It then ignites these hairballs to create fireball attacks. When the time comes for Litten to molt, it burns off all of its fur in one glorious blaze.
The third possibility is the acrobatic Sea Lion Pokmon, Popplio. Popplio can create balloons made of water from its nose and utilize them to create a variety of different strategies and attacks in battle. This Pokmon is better at moving in the water than on land, and can swim at speeds over 25 mph. On land, it uses the elasticity of the balloons it creates to perform jumps and acrobatic stunts.
The two latestPokmon to be announced are legendariesSolgaleo and Lunala, which will feature inPokmon Sun andPokmon Moon respectively. See more in the video below:
At E3 2016 Nintendo announced a further three Pokmon:Pikipek, Yungoos and Grubbin.
Pikipek, whichlikes to collect glittery objects and hide them in their food stores, can strike trees up to 16 times per second to bore holes - this powerful action can even shatter stone. Pikipek can also fire seeds at opponents with enough power to embed them into tree trunks.
Yungoos is an extremely hungry Pokmon, and when its stomach rumbles it gets pretty grumpy. It"s pretty much all about its stomach, but some Yungoos also possess the Stakeout ability, with their moves dealing twice the normal damage to any Pokmon that enters the field mid-battle.
Grubbin is a bug-type Pokmon with a strong jaw, munching away in battle and using its nashers to burrow into the ground. Sticky threads can be spat from its mouth and wrapped around trees, enabling Grubbin to swing between them a bit like Tarzan.
Even more new Pokmon for Sun and Moon
Following a leak, The Pokmon Company has confirmed a few more new Pokmon for Sun and Moon. You can check out the video below to see Tapu Koko (with new move Electric Surge), Charjabug (the evolution of Grubbin), Vikavolt (evolution of Charjabug), Drampa, Bruxish, Cutiefly and Togedemaru.
