Honestly, this is what I was expecting to happen before the game's came out.
I really got the vibes from Gladion that he'd be an unbeatable boss the first time round, with maybe one or two Pokemon that are tough but beatable, then a much higher level Type:Null sweeping our teams to establish...
This question may be a little unusual and different from the others, but hey ho.
I'm starting up a blog on games design and as part of my analysis on the Pokemon series, I'm trying to find an interview / quote in which the developers (I think it was Masuda) mention they intentionally made the...
Meaning to use Porygon-Z in my in-game team as its my favourote Pokemon yet I've never had the chance to use it, but I believe its been confirmed to already be in the Alola Dex.
However, I am a little unsure on when Porygon and its evolutions can be accquired. For it to go in my main team, I'd...

Can anyone tell me if both the Up-Grade and Dubious Disc can be found before post-game? I really want to have the...
I seriously doubt anyone cares. For all it might seem illogical to you, being able to change IVs in-game is a lot more in keeping with the themes of Pokemon then in-breeding thousands of creatures just to get a genetically perfect one. We've constantly been told that Pokemon can overcome their...
Given the info we've apparently had on Cosmog being a rare one-of-a-kind Pokemon that few locals know still exist and the Aether Foundation is researching, I'm still pretty sure Cosmog and the Cosmic Eye thing are in fact prevolutions of our box legendaries, with the Cosmic Eye evolving based on...
Whilst this is definately a big ask, I feel like its completely possible. I'm not sure how likely per se, but there's a lot of reasons why this could happen.
We should remember that the PWT did feature almost every gym leader and champion ever released at the time, so a PWT Version 2 (Which I'm...
Given the datamine and the recent adorable Mimikyu song I think I've finally found my team for Pokemon Moon
-Popplio3 (Guessing Water/Fairy)
-Lycanroc Midday Form (Rock)
-Mimikyu (Ghost/Fairy)
-Salandit2 (Fire/Poison)
-Alolan Sandslash (Ice/Steel)
-Kommo-O (Dragon/Fighting)
I don't normally...
I'm still holding out hope for more Pokemon then those found in the demo, purely because I find it odd that the only Pokemon found were sprites - plain, static two-dimensional images whereas we all know that Pokemon in-game are animated 3D models. THAT and everything seems to have been scrubbed...
I've settled on what appears to be my first team in Pokemon Moon:
Popplio 3
Lycanroc Midday Form / Minior Evo
Vikavolt
Salandit evo / Alolan Marowak
Alolan Sandslash
Kommo-o
I'm very happy with the type variety, but i might have to switch around a little for a bit more stat variety -...
Expanding slightly upon what I said earlier, with the heavier focus on storytelling for Sun & Moon I get the feeling they're going to use game story-telling techniques they haven't before, but quite common in other JRPGs.
I specifically think we're going to see one of those unwinnable boss...
I don't have anything concrete to add to this discussion, but I've only just realized how much I'm excited for the storyline in Sun & Moon, and this is the first time I'm excited for the storyline in a Pokemon game.
Given all the info we have on the connection between the three starters and...
I always play each game at least three times, using different teams with different starters, and sometimes going for nuzlocke runs too.
At the moment, the team I’m wanting to use on my first play-through is:
-Popplio (With the leaks almost 100% being confirmed, I’m going to choose this unless...
Explain how that'll make certain Pokemon more viable if all of them have access to Z-Moves.
All I can see is the same Pokemon and cookie cutter teams being used, because they're still the strongest. They just have access to a once-per-battle, ultra powerful move now.
Few points I'd like to discuss or have cleared up if I'm incorrect about the ideas I'm getting.
Firstly, One thing I'm curious about is if we battle the Trial Captains or not. As they're given type specialties in the trailer and main website, I'm pretty confident that they will be battleable at...
A while back I made a lengthy post guessing that the evil team's plans would be to disrupt the players journey/pilgrimage - The Island Trial - in order to break a tradition which preserves the balance of life force within the Alola region.
Whilst not all of this fits now (Information seems to...
Verslify has already made two videos about this ranting about how much he hates it, which has got to be a sure sign that GameFreak his doing something right IMO.
But seriously, this might be what gets me into competitive battling, assuming the method of earning bottle cops is fun enough. Not...
As for the discussion on whether we can have a Dark-type Gym because the Dark Type is the Evil Type in Japan, I think that's a moot point by now to be honest. If the really gave off such negative vibes I doubt that three Elite Four members would have specialized in it, especially as they are...
