Water Mage Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 (edited) Palkia is OR exclusive and Dialga is AS exclusiveReshiram and Zekrom switched which version they were locked to within a generationKyogre was HG and Groudon was SS.Good point, forgot about those.Speaking of version exclusive, I wonder about Drifloon and Misdreavus. In the japanese trailer that talked about the time differences, Drifloon appeared in Sun while Misdreavus appeared in Moon. However it's also worth noting that when Drifloon appeared, it was daytime, and while when Misdreavus appeared, it was nighttime. Could it be that Misdreavus is nocturnal while Drifloon is diurnal? It would make sense for Drifloon to be diurnal as it usually appear in bright places, unlike most Ghost type Pokemon. Then again, in the Gen 2 games Ledyba was exclusive to Silver and diurnal while Spinarak was exclusive to Gold amd nocturnal, so it could be the same for Drifloon and Misdreavus.

solrocknroll Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 You forgot that Wishiwashi has already been confirmed to be Totem, and it was said there is a Totem Pokemon for each Trial Captain. So, it's likely that there will be others too. Now that I think about it, is there any blank after Wishiwashi? It's odd because Wishiwashi has been pretty much confirmed to be a Totem Pokemon. Another weird is the lack of a Ground type Totem Pokemon, which is weird because in the Demo trailer there is a girl that appears to be a Trial Captain who is accompanied by a Mudsdale. This is actually really weird. It's not weird. That Wishiwashi lacked a Totem aura, and it might just be a Wishiwashi locked into school form instead of an actual totem. That girl isn't a Trial captain. She has to be a Kahuna considering she lacks the necklace that the other six have. Judging by the types, it goes Ilima - Gumshoos/Raticate Sophocles - Vikavolt Mallow - Lurantis Kiawe - Salandette Bonny de Famme - Mimikyu Lana - non-Totem Wishiwashi ??? - Kommo-o Considering that there is talk from a previewer who said that Work Up was now TM01, I wouldn't be surprised if they were right that there were seven captains and four Kahunas. Hala, Olivia, Ground Girl, and Flying Man are likely the four Kahunas, while those seven are the only Trial Captains. Which means that the types are Normal, Fire, Water, Grass, Electric, Ghost, and either Dragon or Fighting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magical Glace Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 I think we should note that the Wishiwashi was only seen outside battle and that's likely why it has no aura. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The DanMan Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Another laughably cringey Gamefaqs post in 3... 2... 1...: "Pikipek's original final design was scrapped for whatever reason(signifying incompetence on gamefreak's part) and this was used as a last minute place holder. Whether that design was still a Toucan or just a Woodpecker? Only gamefreak knows but if it turned out this was actually fully intentional for whatever terrible reason they could come up with, whoever was stupid enough to pass Toucan off as a design should either rethink their choices or be fired." To think that site was my first exposure to web forums... . I think we should note that the Wishiwashi was only seen outside battle and that's likely why it has no aura. Very true.

The DanMan Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 But-but I like toucans...They're cool... Still trying to decipher how woodpeckers become toucans, but still, I love toucans! It's the logic jump that "the original evolution was scrapped" and that it's "incompetence". I'm not a person for brand loyalty, but certain people just want to crap on Gamefreak. As soon as UBs were confirmed catchable, there were comments about them being there to "give fans a false sense of change". It's kinda cringey that I'm seeing more people saying that Pokemon needs to change while talking about the generation that is making the most change. It's like they just want to either (a) crap on what's cool or (b) want a whole different game entirely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Water Mage Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 (edited) It's not weird. That girl isn't a Trial captain. She has to be a Kahuna considering she lacks the necklace that the other six have. I did notice her lack of necklace, but something struck me as weird. In Olivia's bio, it mentions how she is rather young for a Kahuna, which implies that she might be the youngest one. Isn't it strange for them to say that Olivia is young for a Kahuna when there's a much younger one?Also, not all Trial Captains wears their "badge"(for a lack of a better word) as a necklace. Sophocles, Lana and Mallow wear theirs on their belt, Ilima on his hair and the Ghost captain seems to wear it as a bracelet. The girl that may be the Ground captain might wear hers on her boots. Granted, the girl could be just a important or even random NPC for all I know. Edited October 21, 2016 by Water Mage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is actually really weird. Just to confirm that there are no blank spots after Wishiwashi. It may be like how Cykes said and a permanent School Wishiwashi is the fight. It may also just be a cutscene with Wishiwashi coming out of the water to intimidate the player, and then the player needs to navigate around to get something the Wishiwashi is guarding without it noticing or something. I'm pretty sure it was confirmed somewhere that not all trials will necessarily be about battling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The DanMan Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 What do you think will be revealed next Thursday? I'm thinking some combination of our three water types (Water Strider Spider + Anchor + Sea Urchin) and Pikipek's evolutions. Besides that, I'd expect a couple more NPCs and maybe one of the Tapu Quartet. And they could sneak in a tease for a couple new UBs. Honestly, there's a lot they could do- I'd rather they reveal a bit of everything rather than blowout on one specific part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely a new Ultra Beast; we've gone a while without more info on them, and seeing how many there are, they can comfortably reveal one or two while still keeping a few as a surprise for players who haven't spoiled themselves.

Here's your answer: From an evolution perspective, they're part of the same order (Piciformes), only branching off into their own families (Picidae for woodpeckers and Ramphastidae for Toucans) and lately DNA testing has shown they are related. Kinda suprising, isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Water Mage Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Makes more sense than fish -> octopus, I suppose!From what I know I think it's like this:Remoraid is a pistol and it "upgrades" (evolves) into a cannon, Octillery. It's even in Octillery's name meaning, which is a mix of the words Octopus and Artillery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'd also further my (unsubstantiated, improbable) theory that UB-01 is all Ultra Beasts, just in different forms.

Tamanoir Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 I didn't had any Internet access for the whole week, and only saw the leak today. It was a long week. Lots of really interresting designs for the Pokémon (never expected Crabrawler to evolves. Makes me wants it even more.) About Alolan Dugtrio. This can't be a coincidence, right ? The timing is just too perfect. About the fesw number : My gut feeling is that they're waiting gen 10 to announce the 1000th Pokémon. So, this wasn't really unexpected (and all those designs are really fascinating, again. It just makes me even more curious) About The UB being catchable. Well, there was already an eldritch abomination confirmed : Bewear Alolan Muk (AKA The 4th Cavalier of Apocalypse : Polution/Pestillence.). We don't have enough information yet to know if tis is a bad or good decision (That meas they can't be complete cheaters (like Infatuation on everyone), which is both good and bad.)

Emerson Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Remind me, we have every Pokemon's shiny model, correct? Or do we just have the pictures? I'd kinda like access to the Sea Urchin's model for drawing purposes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelaar Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 I LOVE MORELULL'S EVOLUTION Litterally. My team would look like this now: - Rowlet's final evo - Lurantis - Tsareena - Morelull's evolution - Alolan exeggutor - Alolan Ninetales I am very dissapointed with the lack of Ice type pokémon this generation. But I can't have 5 grass type and 1 ice type on my team. It gets absolutely ROASTED by Fire tpes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible it will appear in the trailer in a couple days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
