1: Yes. From a different dimension. 2: Faba is, not Wicke. 3: Not by the looks of it. 4: Nope. 5: 6: Aether was working with her and with sinister motivations, but I don't think they knew what Lusamine was exactly planning. Wicke seems like the token good teammate on their side. 7: Yes. 8: Correct in that it is true UB are not people. They are separate creatures. Lillie looks like UB-01/Nihilego because Lusamine dressed her like that, and presumably that's why Lusamine looks like UB-02 Beauty/Pheromosa. EDIT: And I was ninja'd too.

Don't forget about First Impression. Bug Extreme Speed but can only be used on its first turn is something interesting. Thanks to its ability it gets at minimum 2 uses unless it gets KOed before Emergency Exit. It could theoretically even use Leech Life to try and get above 50% HP again to do it again.

Really fast + good attack (better now) + Arena Trap. It traps something it can beat, and smashes them with EQ. It also has Reversal to go with its terrible bulk and a Focus Sash. Before it goes down it use Memento or set up some SR or even Toxic something to help the rest of the team.

I will if I do post here when I get the game.

Good. I did not expect a story in freaking pokemon to go quite how it did.

Yeah. Not quite what I expected when watching the trailers.

Yeah, all you need is the nature you want (easy with Synchronize and/or soft resetting), ability (not a problem), and egg moves. Now that I think about it, I wonder where we're gonna get hidden abilities. QR codes?

Apparently the Ash-Greninja can be a different nature than Hardy. Once you transfer it it changes nature. Don't know if it can be soft reset for or not.

That's a lot better than I expected. Poor Ash-Greninja though. Are there Silver caps?

Got it.

The wild pokemon listings is probably the best spot. Just ctrl-F a regional mon, and since it is the Moon encounters, if it doesn't appear in either list it is a Sun exclusive. The harder part is guessing where it is located in Sun, but I'm sure it wouldn't be that hard to guess what its Moon counterpart is. I'll list the ones I know though. Only alolan mons though. Sun - Moon Solgaleo - Lunala Buzzwole - Pheromosa Kartana - Celesteela Lycanroc Midday - Lycanroc Midnight (sorta because the other one can be found in the wild on the 4th island) Passimian - Oranguru Vulpix - Sandshrew

Alright, I got it.

I did not see that when I started making my post.

Here's all of the trainer cut-in portraits. Note that it lacks the model stuff like Kukui's little punch thing as shown from the all battle intros video, so there may be a few missing. Some spoilers too. [spoiler=Male] [spoiler=Female]

Speaking of pokedex entries, here they are. http://pastebin.com/FfXdLLTZ Sun http://pastebin.com/nJnhdbmg Moon Some of these are pretty intense.

It's probably how Mega Beedrill is minmaxed to a huge degree, and the UB besides Celesteela also seem to be minmaxed to a large degree.

Starter Z-Moves. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OqFhbzI3OQ Marshadow's Z-Move. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ll1UV3hH_do

https://paste.ee/r/zYMUr This is a more correct version of the moveset list.

Yeah. I am surprised on how not-bad Mudsdale's Special Defense is. 100/100/85 bulk ain't bad at all. An Assault Vest set doesn't sound that bad, and although it lacks reliable recover, it can hold out for a bit hopefully. Heavy Slam, EQ, Rock Slide, and Close Combat/Superpower/Double Kick ain't bad. Unfortunately that's all it gets besides Return of course, so it sounds incredibly predictable. At least Assault Vest/Choice Band can sorta be a thing to guess, but eh.

Normal and Dragon do tend to help a lot for movepools.

I don't know.

Not that I know of. At least for Alolan mons. https://paste.ee/r/mvJ70 Moves with their power as a Z-Move. ! mean they've been changed from a previous gen. New moves are at the end. Cosmog evolves into Cosmoem (the cocoon orb thing) at level 43, and that evolves into Solgaleo/Lunala at level 53 depending on your version. Kinda like Rockruff.

Solgaleo and Lunala are version exclusive.
