The latest Pokénchi episode proved quite a letdown as no solid gameplay details came out of the broadcast though GameFreak's Junichi Masuda managed to tease some info that the Holiday 2016 release date of the Pokémon Sun and Moon will apparently deliver. The Pokémons to come with the fresh titles are likely of the Generation 7 class and they will be aplenty.
Masuda's appearance on Pokénchi did not live up to expectations but the show somehow has extracted things to look forward to. There were no specific Pokémons mentioned - no Volcanion nor Zygarde - but Masuda revealed that gamers can expect no less than 10 fresh Mons to drop come the unpacking time.
And if the previously leaked details are to go by, the chance is high that the next batch of Pokémons will be part of the Gen 7 class. "This seems like a no-brainer but for someone from GameFreak to confirm new Pokémon in Sun and Moon to be more support that this is indeed Generation 7," iDigitalTimes said in a report.
The online publication has earlier speculated that the Sun and Moon is a Gen 7 Pokémon release, meaning the storyline that centered on Kalos will continue but in a different setting or region. The coming of Gen 7 class was also hinted by the leak of characters like the multi-form Zygarde and Magearna, the latter was somehow discussed during the February issue of the Japanese manga CoroCoro.
So in the upcoming April 15 edition of the same magazine, a new era of Pokémon games will be up for revelation, Nintendo Insider reported. Fans are expecting that in the next few days, more juicy details will be provided such as specific character names and some bits on the Pokémon gameplay.
And while waiting, Cinema Blend pointed to a YouTube clip (can be viewed below) that could be source of the things to come. As the report said in trying to read between the lines, it might be that "you can spot something no one else can."
The Pokémon Sun and Moon release date, Nintendo said, will happen around the 2016 Holiday season exclusively for 3DS gamers.
