Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Nekkoala seems amazing for now and would be hilarious to switch in against Thunder Wave and stuff. I'd probably assume bulky stats on its end and likely on the slow end. But yeah, Prankster users are going to have some difficulty trying to status (what sleep inducers are common nowadays anyway [for OU; Ubers has Darkrai, so keep that one out]?) Rock dog is interesting though. Now to wonder what Magearna's new ability/move entail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 O koala Pokemon. You are so cute. You have such an amazing ability. But you are normal. Hope you get something amazing since Normal types over all tend to be very not good. Rock puppy is adorable. The type isn't the best in the world and its abilities are meh but as said above, fast rock type should be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 >Can only fall asleepWould be pretty funny if it could learn a move like Thrash/etc.Regardless, that's a really interesting ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebuchet MS Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Maybe this ability only blocks non-volatile status that aren't sleep, meaning it can be confused, Attracted, Taunted, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 I would assume this is the case, in which case, it'd still be good but not OP (well, not taking stats into consideration as we don't know them). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas★Zero Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Looking at types and the rock dog pokemon if it ends up being quite good it could be on evolution our first Rock/Ghost or Rock/Electric Pokémon depending on what their going with this.

EliminateHRN Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Nekkoala's ability sounds amazing! Hopefully he has decent stats and a good movepool, might be a fun pokemon to use. Iwanko is adorable, I'm a sucker for dogs. Wonder if any of these two have further evolutions? Will be interesting to see if they do or not. The starters and Iwanko all hide a secret? Wonder what that could mean, I can't think of anything. Maybe it'll have something to do with the professor and him studying moves? Idk, just caught my eye and made me think for a minute. Also, haven't seen this in the Serebii website yet or anything (may have missed it), but I did come across it on bulbapedia, but Solgaleo and Lunala apparently has alternate forms."Solgaleo has analternate form known as Rising Phase, in which it is described as being like the sun. In this Phase, it appears more radiant and its colored accents all become yellow. Lunala has an alternate form known as Full Moon Phase, in which it is said to call the moon. In this Phase, its wings glow white, highlighting its skeletal structure. Solgaleo and Lunala, which are central to Pokémon Sun and Moon, are said to exhibit their fullest power in these Phases."Not huge news since I'm pretty sure you saw it in the trailers, but now there's details about them.

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 They probably will have evolved forms, but just have to wait and see. If the data about Solgaleo/Lunala is true, then might be similar to Black/White Kyurem in terms of power ups and stuff (doubting it'll be aesthetic like Xerneas, but don't quote me on that). I looked at the Japanese trailers (well, they might've released new one today and I haven't seen it); nothing of that sort came up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Time for a late person's two pence;- Nekkoala: We finally get a Koala eh, interesting and its ability is pretty damn good too- Iwanko: So that's the pokemon we saw recently. Rock-type is interesting. I wonder if when it evolves that it'll be faster than Onix (I know there are faster rock-types, Onix was the first that spang to mind)- Litten, Popplio, Rowlet and Iwanko hide a secret eh? I wonder what that'll be when that is revealed- Fleur Cannon has got fairy-type written all over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Sorry for the double post but... Zygarde 10%/Complete confirmed for Sun and Moon. Footage from the Taiwan Nationals, which was attended by Junichi Masuda EDIT: Higher quality posts addedZygarde 10%'s ability is known as Swarm Change and Zygarde Complete's signature move is Core Punisher EDIT 2: The two moves that Zygarde 10% were using in the first video are Thousand Waves and Thousand Arrows, the two unused attacks programmed into X and Y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Warden Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Soooo... Complete Form is an emergency transformation ability, not unlike Zen Mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Now watch, Nekkoala's ability literally blocks all statues except Sleep- And it's stats/movepool/etc isn't really impressive or anything.IE, it would be another case of Shedinja; Very strong ability, but held back because of reasons.

bury the year Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Looks like an akita. I'll take it. Rai-approved. Not Hawaiian so can't confirm, but I think it's supposed to be based off of the poi dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't immediately go to Hawaiian inspirations just because of the region (I mean, we literally got a koala). Also, poi dogs tend to be pariah dogs, and there aren't any spitz-type pariah dogs as far as I'm aware. Iwanko's definitely based off spitz breeds like the akita or klee kai.

King K. Azo Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 English for the English people. Also, Zygarde has 4 signature moves?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 So the Zygarde forms being in Gen 7 was to be expected. That just leaves Ash-Gren. Curious how/if that will be brought in given the whole, "Ash isn't a game character". Actually, I'm curious how they will work Zygarde's forms into he game. The pokedex description for it implies its VERY tied to Kalos and Alola is a ways away from he region "When the Kalos region's ecosystem falls into disarray, it appears and reveals its secret power." "It's hypothesized that it's monitoring those who destroy the ecosystem from deep in the cave where it lives." Would be weird to just have the forms available for no discernible in a region no where near Kalos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 Focus Sash Zygarde 10% anyone? Crushed by priority but depending on its stats could be pretty fun...Though seeing this makes me think it's not going to be great competitively. Cool still.

Though seeing this makes me think it's not going to be great competitively. Cool still. That actually isn't the case. If you watch the trailer 10% has 5 HP left out of 125 and when it becomes perfect its at 167 out of 287 Also, to give everyone and idea as to high insane high that HP is, with max IVs its base 212. With 0 its 227. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it'll be at half its full HP, though chances are it'll be at 1/3 or 1/4 given previous Abilities/Moves with similar mechanics.Also, does anyone else now feel an urge to name their Zygarde in Sun & Moon "Zorro"? Surely no one of you missed the curious detail during Core Enforcer's animation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more inclined to use Omega since he is likely always going to be the last Pokemon in alphabetical order and Omega is a cool robot like name. The Z is a pretty nice bit of flare for the attack though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be really wrong though. So long as it only needs to drop to 25% it can still end up being OU since the HP gained on changing forms still puts it above average for most Pokemon. Assuming its super fast (though it getting outran by Garchomp suggests otherwise) and it triggers on HP getting low you can just spam sub. That does eat a move slot from the perfect form though. Past that I suspect its BST to be like 700 or 720 since its stronger than both Xerneas and Yveltal and BST is the simplest way to express that. Regardless, this really isn't comparable to any Pokemon we have outside of Darmanitan and the numbers there are no where near the ones here. I'm really curious how this will play out.
