Not so keen on Popplio now, lol. I'm glad that Rowlet's evolution is pretty cool, as I normally always start with the grass starter anyway. Torracat is cool too.

Unfortunately the now official middle-stage evos, confirm a bunch of leaks, which showed Litten's final evolution to be:

a) Bi-pedal

and

b) Wait for it.... FIRE AND FIGHTING



Because we don't have enough of those......

On Serebii.net new CoroCoro Pokemon information have been released:

From yesterday:

The first images from CoroCoro have leaked and have revealed the latest news on Sun & Moon. As always, do note that translations are preliminary while we work on them. In the first image, we see Alolan Grimer, which appears to be a Poison/Dark-type
10:20: From the same source, but currently without pictures so it's unconfirmed, Jangmo-o's evolution is in the magazine, and is Dragon/Fighting-type, and that Type: Null it evolves into a Pokémon called Shiruvadi (シルヴァディ) and that either Null or its evolution change type based on items it holds. We'll bring confirmation of this as and when it comes so keep checking back.
12:50: The same source says that Shiruvadi has got the ability "AR System" which changes its type based on the hold item.
14:06: The same source also says that Jangmo-o's full evolution line is in CoroCoro. Its evolution is known in Japan as Jarango and Jarango then evolves into Jararanga. Once again, this remains unconfirmed until images surface
http://serebii.net/corocoro11161.jpg

From today:

The first images from CoroCoro have leaked and have revealed the latest news on Sun & Moon. As always, do note that translations are preliminary while we work on them. These images confirm the information revelaed yesterday but not shown of Jangmo-o's evolutions, Jarango & Jararanga, and Type: Null and its evolution Silvadi. We'll bring more as it comes
06:11: When Type: Null finds a trainer it trusts, it destroys its helmet and evolves into Silvadi. It has a special item called Memory that lets it be one of all 18 types at any one time thanks to its ability, AR System. It's not currently known if it's one item that can change this, or if there are 18 different ones. It has a new attack called Multi Attack which changes type based on its hold item
06:16: It also confirms the Trial Captain Ilmia is the first Trial Captain 06:57: The first town is known in Japan as Hauori City
http://serebii.net/corocoro11162.jpg
http://serebii.net/corocoro11163.jpg
http://serebii.net/corocoro11165.jpg

I like Jangmo-o's evolutions and that it's Dragon/Fighting but hopefully it learns either a Poison or Steel type move for coverage against Fairies which it's 4x weak to.

Alolan Grimer is so disappointing, you would have thought with all the alternate typings the other Alolan forms are getting that Grimer would be a bit different, like fire and dark, or water and dark, but to still make him poison (even though they've thrown in dark) feels like a waste of potential.

That said, do like the new designs that got leaked

Not been this excited for a new game since sapphire, ruby and emerald. Really liking everything they've done with these new games, and the new Pokemon are so different from previous generations that it makes me look forward to it even more.

All the Pokemon designs have now been leaked and I have to say.... there aren't many I like...

Some of them are nearly so bad they're objectively bad, like Alolan Persian which has a head twice the size of its body, and then there's Alolan Dugtrio which is just Dugtrio wearing three blonde wigs...

That having been said there are still some cool Pokémon and I like the look of Alolan Geodude/Graveler/Golem, it's just a shame that the leak which talked about Alolan Alakazam, Arcanine and Nidoking appears to have been fake.

Also either they weren't included in the demo code or we don't have any new megas this time around.

I enjoyed the demo for what it was. I'm glad they didn't show too much of the game. Had a looked at the leaked Pokemon list, and there are a few that are out of place. But there's quite a lot of ones that I like too. So I'm still excited for the games.

i enjoyed the demo. the new graphics and the fact that technically there aren't any gyms will take a bit of getting used to but it doesn't seem to have strayed sk far away from the originals that i can't enjoy it.

Just two days to go.

If I recall correctly all of the retailers broke the street date for X and Y and released it a day before it was officially released, which is (I think) why we get the games 5 days after the rest of the world now. It might be worth checking social media to see if that happens tomorrow.

My copy of Sun has dispatched from ShopTo, and they normally arrive the day before the official release. Hoping to get it tomorrow! Have been excited since I read how good the reviews are for Sun and Moon. Don't forget to post your friend codes here once you get the game!

Game certainly released a day earlier but only for those that had pre-ordered. I remember checking their FB page for the announcement before rushing to the shop to pick my copy of Y up. They weren't selling it to anyone though; strictly for those that had pre-ordered to reduce queues the following day. I remember having quite the chat with the guy that served me who explained that Nintendo had given them permission to sell the games early.
