Satoshi finally meets the legendary Pokémon!!
Legendary Pokémon appear before Satoshi! We have a scoop on new, super startling developments!!

...but it's just in a dream...
That's unfortunate! But at least he's lucky to see what they look like!

The legendary Pokémon of the Alola region: Solgaleo and Lunala!
The dream takes place at the Altar of the Sunne, which is located on Poni Island, an island Satoshi has never been to. Is this place related to the legendary Pokémon...?

The dawn of a mysterious morning and a startling encounter!
Further mysteries await Satoshi that day! He discovers a mysterious Pokémon in the tall grass!

He's made the amazing discovery of a new species of Pokémon?!
Incredibly, this is a completely unknown Pokémon there's not even data on in the Rotom Zukan!

https://i.imgur.com/xfQAyMy.jpg

The new Pokémon Starcloud, which is a complete mystery to all, is a newborn baby?!
Having noted its fluffy body and the way it twinkles like a star, Lilie named the Pokémon "Starcloud"! But what kind of Pokémon is it?

Since it's a baby, it plays all the time!
The Pokémon School is full of new playmates. It quickly becomes friends with Pikachu and the others!

Since it's a baby, it sleeps all the time!
If it thinks it might have created a mess, it goes straight to sleep. It's the middle of the class, though, so will Satoshi be okay..?!

Since it's a baby, it eats all the time!
It's somewhat different from other Pokémon when it comes to food as well! Turn the page to discover what its favorite is!

https://i.imgur.com/Rd83p7i.jpg

A massive study! The secrets about Starcloud!!
Starcloud is still wrapped in mysteries! Here is the result of a massive study concerning three different subjects!

Everyone at the School takes care of Starcloud!
Starcloud is a new Pokémon nobody knows anything about! Everyone works together to ensure it gets raised healthily!

Subject 1: What does it eat?
All kinds of food gets prepared for it, but trouble arises when it doesn't eat any of it!

Salad, sandwiches, milk from Ohana Ranch, cake, Pokémon Food... it won't eat any of these! What can be done?!
They test absolutely everything, and eventually discover that for some reason, only konpeito makes it happy! That's the answer to what to feed it!

Konpeito? No problem!
Māmane happens to have some!

Subject 2: How do you make it stop crying?
Starcloud's crying is more intense than a Pokémon move?! And there's no other solution other than just treating it gently?!

Kaki has given up as well! Mao, we're relying on you!

Subject 3: A group of adults want to research it as well!
The "Aether Foundation", an organization that protects Pokémon, has caught word of Starcloud! They immediately set off to meet with Satoshi!

Lusamine: Represents the organization and researches Pokémon. And she's also Lilie and Gladio's mother!

Professor Burnet: Researches an unknown space outside the world where Pokémon and humans live.

Wicke: In charge of the Pokémon protection.

Sauboh: A scientist researching Pokémon.

https://i.imgur.com/UnfMIg0.jpg

Get on board with the new developments in the anime!!
Starcloud alone is enough to make the anime really hectic, but it's also filled with intriguing stuff like Satoshi's dream and his new encounters! Make sure not to miss any episodes in the future either!!

Pay extra attention to what Satoshi's new partner Lugarugan (Dusk Form) does!!
Satoshi's Iwanko gained power little by little until it finally evolved! Now it's even cooler and even more reliable!
When it evolved, it saw the "Green Flash", which involves the sun shining in a green color!

Legendary Pokémon will appear! Don't miss out on the new developments that start with the episode "Satoshi and Starcloud! A Mysterious Encounter!!" It airs Thursday October 5th at 6:55pm! (time and date varies depending on region)

I'm interested in the line that Burnet is a close friend of Lusamine. Either they're both evil, or the evil team and villain is someone totally different from Lusamine.

so since burnet and kukui didnt married i kinda hope they imply romance between them

I suppose since he has no ring in the anime Burnet will eventually end up turning against Aether's and siding with Satoshi-tachi eventually, then they'll get married in the anime.

I'm actually curious at the lack of Mukuroh or Nyabby, will this arc serve more so as USUM focus and Lugarugan debuts Radial Edge Storm.

Miraculous!

Same because unlike a large amount of kid ships the adult ones might actually go somewhere

I don't think we will have to worry about them. They will get enough screentime in the upcoming plot.

Wicke is so cute in her Anime art. Well... she always was, but I like her plenty in this style!

Also... Starcloud? That's a first.

Yeah the preview makes me feel that it's going to be Ash who'll be looking after Cosmog, with Lillie playing a vital supporting role. And Rowlet, you'd better evolve soon since you're home is going to get usurped.

Though I'm happy, and undoubtedly shocked we're getting Aether Foundation so early, what I'm even more surprised and a bit disappointed about is where is YOUR BOI?

That was kid Bakugo that she voiced. Gladion's VA actually voices present Bakugo. It's a bit ironic lol
Oh ****, I didn't realize that. lmao

Starcloud name must be because of its design. Literal name!!

Yeah, it felt like the best approximation of its name. The Japanese word for nebula is seiun (星雲), where both the kanji for star (星) and the kanji for cloud (雲) are read with their Chinese-derived "on-readings" sei and un. Their native Japanese "kun-readings" are "hoshi-gumo", which is what the Japanese name for this thing is.
So translating nebula into English is the closest we can get to that.

That make sense?

I'mma gonna Deku in the face, Kacchan
Holy Arceus Ash finds Nebby! Well who didn't see that coming.

I like the idea of joint careers with Ash and Lillie, but Ash keeps Nebby due to Lillie still having a fear of touching other Pokemon. I guess Nebby will be number three on her list since she doesn't have the game bag. So far, Aether is being shown as a good group of people, maybe this relates to the USUM plot? I dunno but still skeptical. Overall, looking forwards to this!

...Wouldn't it be easier to just call it "Nebula"?

Presumably because they're children and nebula and star cloud are near synonyms, but Star Cloud gets the point across better
