There was a leakage about "Pokémon Sun and Moon" on June 30, and now The Pokémon Company has unveiled an English trailer featuring the new Pokémon. The company has also updated its official website with new information about "Pokémon Sun and Moon."
Earlier in June, the Japanese magazine CoroCoro revealed two new Pokémon - the Koala Pokémon called Nekkoala and the rock dog Pokémon called Iwanka. However, with the July 1 update, these two Pokémon have received new English names.
Nekkoala is referred to as Komala and its ability Comatose stops any status impacts that are not Sleep, according to Pokémon official website. On the other hand, Iwanka is called Rockruff, and there is further information about the Rock-type dog that apparently shares the same secret with the Alola starters.
Information posted on the site reads, "Rockruff is a sociable Pokémon, but as it grows, its disposition gets wilder. If it begins to howl when the sun goes down, that is proof that it's close to evolving. It's said that it leaves its Trainer's side to evolve and returns again when fully evolved."
Furthermore, Rockruff can learn Bite. As a result, Rockruff will evolve into a Rock and Dark-type Pokémon.
The July 1 update as well revealed that Zygarde from Pokémon Z will have a role in "Pokémon Sun and Moon, according to iDigital Times." However, the way this Legendary Pokémon will be incorporated into the Alola Region is unclear.
Seemingly, Zygarde 10% will feature in "Pokémon Sun and Moon" with the capabilities Aura Break and Power Construct. Thousand Waves and Thousand Arrows are new attacks for Zygarde that bring some intriguing effects.
Zygarde 50% will as well possess the Aura Break and Power Construct capabilities, but it is interesting to note that Zygarde 10% does not transform into 50%. The 10% form goes straight to the Complete Form as soon as its HP drops below half.
With regard to the Zygarde complete Form, its new move called Core Enforcer can erase the powers of any other enemies that have already utilized a move on the same turn. Watch the trailer below for more information on "Pokémon Sun and Moon" July 1 update.
