I wonder if Rotom-D will be usable in battle.

I don't expect you to start the game with a fully usable Rotom, that'd be over powered, but I think mid game maybe it works up the courage or whatever to fight alongside you if you want (as Rotom-D, the Electric/Steel type).

Why?

I don't see any major feature that will be New 3ds only

The only thing I'd expect is improved performance honestly.

Maybe they sneak in some trivial amiibo functionality.

Just so everyone knows, the Pokedex tends to hint at the design of the next Nintendo handheld.

no it's doesn't, it tends to mimic the current or past nintendo handhelds

the only ones that dont is the X and & ones but those are based on touch pads

So Rotom is the bottom screen gizmo this time around.

I like it.

Mr-Joker · Jun 2, 2016

I am quite interested in Rotom Pokédex form and opens a window for Rotom to join my Sun and Moon team.

Honestly I am a little disappointed by the trailer as I wanted to see new Pokémon and not be shown stuff that I already knew or suspected, though Solgaleo typing was a surprise which makes me suspect that maybe there's more to Solgaleo and Lunala.

Yep, she will most likely take the starter that is strong against yours.

The Japanese YouTube broke each part down and shows more of th game footage!

Pokedex now showing % (from one of the Japanese videos).
If that's still counting "seen" Pokémon, and it shows there are 3 seen, then the 1% implies that the Regional Dex will have around 300 Pokémon (barring any rounding shenanigans).

"Lillie is a mysterious girl who assists the professor. This young girl is about the same age as your character, and she's working as Professor Kukuis assistant for personal reasons. She's not fond of making Pokémon fight in battles, but she loves reading and has devoured many books. Lillie will play an important role in the story of Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon."

Hau takes the Pokemon weak to you (as seen in the first trailer). There has to be a second rival, but I doubt it's Lillie.

She's obviosuly gonna end up loving it by the end of the game, standard stuff.

Have we heard if Mega Evolution will return for this gen?

astrogamer · Jun 2, 2016

Aside from the rotom UI looking sick as hell. It also showed that having seen the 3 starters is 1% of the region's total pokemon so at least 300 pokemon are in this region.

The "Battle Hotel"? Fight Trainers from all around the world as you move up to greater and fancier rooms.

Good catch, I don't believe the number will be that high but I'd certainly want it to be. Either that or it's 'caught' and we have another tiny gen.

Dryk · Jun 2, 2016

The one saving grace of those signature moves is that Lunaala might give Lugia some trouble

chaobreaker · Jun 2, 2016

Lillie has that "I don't want to be here right now." sort of appearance. Hope it means she's not a pushover rival if she is one.

Charlie0108 · Jun 2, 2016

There are certain parts of this that concern me a little, especially how it looks like there is going to be a lot of hand holding in the game and all the tall grass shown so far seems sparse and optionable. Seems very different from past games.

Makes sense, considering the moon is a source of light rather than the opposite. I've been saying this all along.

Ummm makes sense, would alsonkind of explain why Solgaeo is only resistant to dark (both Sun and Moon have Eclipses)

This is what I was expecting from X and Y which was so sorely missing, charm and personalty.

Yeah, she''s clearly going end up loving Pokémon in end as N didn't like Pokémon battle but grew to love it in the end.

I don't mind them having those effects. It bugs me that they're wasting space on giving them new names though. Also the official website goes out of it's way to say that no Pokemon have these abilities and then they're just Clear Body and Multiscale.
