The Pokemon Company has released a new trailer for the upcoming 3DS RPG title "Pokemon Sun and Moon" and it is roughly three minutes long, showcasing brand-new Pokemon, the game's main antagonist and Alola forms for existing Pokemon such as Raichu, the evolved form of Pikachu.
The three Pokemon given new Alola forms are Raichu, Marowak and Meowth. Raichu turns into an Electric and Water-type with a Surfing ability, Meowth turns into a Dark-type Pokemon and Marowak becomes a Ghost and Fire-type, changing them from their original types, strengths and weaknesses.
It is also revealed that the villains will be called Team Skull and they are lead by two characters. Considered their "big sister" is a girl named Plumeria while the "big boss" is known as Guzma. Team Skulls also sports a black, punk-like motiff to their outfit and it is hinted Guzma was once an Island Trial Captain and he refers to his followers as "rejects."
Several new Pokemon are also introduced. One is a Water-type Fish Pokemon called Wishiwashi. Its "Schooling" ability lets it summon other Wishiwashi to form one bigger Pokemon. The second new Pokemon revealed is Pyukumuku, a Pokemon that can dish out massive damage but this ability causes it to faint, and the third is a Grass and Fairy-type known as Morelull.
A report from Kotaku also reveals that as fans await the release of "Pokemon Sun and Moon" this November many have turned to the mobile game, "Pokemon Go." However, Game Freak co-founder and one of the lead developers for "Pokemon Sun and Moon," Junichi Masuda, has stated that fans should stop bombarding him with inquiries regarding the popular mobile game.
Masuda points out that while he has a hand in "Pokemon Go," the game is primarily the product of California-based company Niantic Inc. and that fans should voice their concerns there instead of Game Freak.
"Pokemon Sun and Moon" will be released on Nov. 18.
