More details about "Pokemon Sun and Moon" will be revealed on June 2. The Pokemon Company did not elaborate on what they have in store for fans on the said day, but it is guaranteed that there will be plenty of revelations and surprises to be made.

Speaking of "Pokemon Sun and Moon" info spree, a chunk of information about the new tropical-set "Pokemon" games is contained in a starter guide, a 350-page companion book for "Pokemon Sun and Moon" filled with Pokedex entries and map information.

The starter guide will be a Pokemon trainer's best friend and will be the primary go-to for tips and bonus material. The hardcover book is now on pre-order for $23.99. It will be out on Nov. 18, the same day "Pokemon Sun and Moon" hit the market.

The release of starter guides isn't unprecedented with "Pokemon" titles since "Pokemon X and Y" also received one. However, it did not ship until after the game's launch, which was a bummer for some. This won't be the case in "Pokemon Sun and Moon" because players will get the guide book right off the bat.

In other related "Pokemon Sun and Moon" news, "Pokemon" fans in Hong Kong are in protest after the name of the Pokemon creatures were changed in an effort to translate the game fully in Mandarin in order to cater to gamers there. Majority of the names were changed including that of Pikachu.

The cute yellow creature's name Beikaaciu was renamed to Pikaqiu in the versions of "Pokemon Sun and Moon" coming to Hong Kong, whose official language is actually Cantonese. Fans were understandably upset and viewed it as utter disrespect to the language.

"We have been using Beikaaciu for over 20 years... this is a part of our way of life and the Cantonese translation also underlines the distinctiveness of our language," Lonely Media chief editor Sing Leung, who organized a rally to reverse the change, said via South China Morning Post.

Leung warned that if "Pokemon Sun and Moon" does not change Pikachu's name back, they will boycott Nintendo products.
