Gen VII: Pokemon Sun and Moon Discussion MKII

[CTNC]

It was an old trailer in German! >:(

 

[LastFootnote]

Yeah, I'm not at all surprised that it's just the German version of the first trailer. Although in today's internet-connected world, you'd think Nintendo would know that everybody's already seen it in English and Japanese. Maybe they'll reveal something new, but I'm not holding my breath.

 

[Count Bleck]

Demo Interview time!

 

[D_what]

God, Junichi Masuda never ages. He might look younger than me in the right light! Dude's 48!

Bet we'll get Sandcastles. And possibly other stuff, but definitely the castles.

 

[LastFootnote]

Aaaaaaand, nothing new in the interview that I could parse.

 

[Count Bleck]

I have a translator in my IRC. Says Fakachu will have a special role in the games.

There will be a Battle Royale demonstration, followed by another message from Japan.
how to win Battle Royale: Beat the most pokemon and have the most pokemon remaining
Ties are decided through HP

 

[LastFootnote]

Aaaaaaand, the Battle Royale demonstration is just with Pikachu and the new starters. Because of course it is.

 

[Count Bleck]

Not so fast: We got Z-moves!

And I have to admit it was cool seeing Rockruff, Mimikyu, Togedemaru, and Komala in action. I'm somewhat impressed that they actually show e.g. Pikachu connecting with a Tackle.

WAIT, FIRE DRAGON TIME

 

[porneon]

so, mini Reshiram?

 

[Kurona]

We finally got a Non-Legendary Non-Mega Fire/Dragon type!

... is it what anyone was expecting?

 

[Chaoswalker]

 

[Project_Mars]

Aaaaaaand, the Battle Royale demonstration is just with Pikachu and the new starters. Because of course it is.

And then everyone pulled out new pokemon! Mimikyu gets Shadow Sneak, I think Togedemaru used Discharge, and an electric move of some kind... Was it Nuzzle? And Did Komala use Gyro Ball? Also to the surprise of no one (i think) Rockruff gets Bite.

Edit: Of Course I would not see Fire/Dragon Turtle getting revealed.

 

[AzureRaptor]

So the only pokemon we get is literally a flaming Kappa... sigh

 

[zferolie]

totally forgot the stream. so nothing new?

EDIT: NVM, posted as this new pokemon is shown... how silly looking. But a fire dragon. Anything about it?

 

[Bram316]

Panzerhaut is Shell Armor in english. It also has a new move that traps the foe.

[Retro64]

I like it! Anyone else feels this new Pokemon looks like a Megaman X boss?

Rockruff had Rock Tomb, Stealth Rock, Bite and something that I forgot.

 

[TheMantyke]

IT'S PERFECT

10/10 100/100 BEST MON BEST MON

I WANT IT, I WANT IT SO BAD

 

[D_what]

LOL they're playing one of Smooth McGroove's covers!

...I wonder was he asked for permission? :o

 

[steviestar]

It's very similar to Rainy Turtloid from MMX6

 

[Retro64]

Twitch chat was saying that Rockruff had stealth rock. Any truth to that? Wouldn't surprise me but it'd be weird for it to have it so early on in this battle royal demo.

Yeah it had Tarnsteine, which is Stealth Rock. It also had Rock Tomb.

"Shell Trap is a move that only Turtonator is able to learn. With this move, the Pokémon can set a trap at the beginning of the turn, and if Turtonator is hit by an opponent’s physical attack during that turn, Shell Trap triggers an explosion that will deal much greater damage to the opponent."
