Did you notice that the 3 New UBs are also weak to Landorus/Zygarde?

Any link to the Japanese trailer? Thanks in advance

 

@theSLAYER Satochi saw Lunala/Solgaleo first in a dream in anime episode 44


From the official channel:

Yeah, he dreamt that they told him to go and find and look after Nebby right? XD

And here I was thinking Zygarde is taking a back seat.

There's too much chaos brewing in USUM, and it feels like we've seen nothing to indicate Zygarde will be back.

Thanks, yep it seems that dreams are another dimension in Pokemon World.

Time to see again DreamBall?


Well, the Ultra Space Traverse does seem to use the Pokemon Dream Radar sound effects (picking up the light orbs sounds similar to picking up the Dream Orbs),
so maybe the system/mechanic is discovered/pioneered by Professor Burnet? (She is in Alola, plus Kukui's Wife)

Ah DreamBall, I've missed you so.

I have to share you a very interesting french theory about the UBs.

As you know they are "based" on prime numbers (7 in SM all their level attacks are prime numbers).

On 14/09/2017 2 New UBs were revealed (and guess what 1409 and 2017 are prime numbers!).

Then recently a new one.

 

So what can we expect?

2 Things: 1,3 or 7 New Ubs in order to get 11,13 or 17 (prime numbers) or according to the new Motisma Dex Marshadow number is 402 that means the 3rd new UB can be a Mythical Pokemon (number 403 in that case).

I like the prime number connection.

though in previous Alolan dex, Ultra beasts came before necrozma and Marshadow :/

So with that new Alola Rotomdex advertisement/toy(or whatever it was) showing Cosmog at 387 and Marshadow at 402, (implying Cosmoem 388, Solgaleo 489, Lunala 490, Necrozma 400, Magearna 401), which only leaves room for 9 UBs in between. We now have 10 UBs, so either that Rotomdex thing is somehow incorrect, or there will be UBs after Marshadow. A new mythical is almost guaranteed at this point since we get one every single year and the Switch game won't be out until 2019/2020. Though I find it odd if they'd add just two new UBs before Marshadow, and one(or more) after.

The possible scenario I can see here is that UB Adhesive is only seen used during the story by the URS, and not obtainable in-game, only to get distributed later on. Sort of like AZ's Floette, but actually being distributed this time. -_-

Either that, or a clustercrap of pokedex organization. Though that still has me thinking about the National Dex in general. Whether or not it will be in USUM this time(hopefully), but rather the NatDex in PokeBank. Will all three(or more) UBs be after Marshadow (803, 804, 805), or will they shift Necrozma, Magearna, and Marshadow upward to place the new UBs with the others? It seams a logical reason why there was no NatDex in SM (and PokeBank can easily be updated), but someone had said the TCG has Marshadow at 802, so I don't know if that'll actually be used in consideration with the new NatDex arrangement or not.

I'm definitely very curious about all of this though. And I hope the NatDex is back in USUM, because filling the dex has always been my favorite part of post-game, and the 302 in SM was too easy, and if only 402 in USUM, that's only marginally better.

Edit: I also noticed how UB Adhesive looks somewhat different from the other UBs, and actually resembles "pixie" mythicals in general.

Necrozma-Solgaleo will get Prism Armor (Psychic/Steel) (totally broken!!!) and a new Z-Move called Sunshine Smasher.

Necrozma-Lunala will also get Prism Armor (Psychic/Ghost) and a new Z-Move called Moonlight Blaster.

For strategic players Mold Breaker doesn't work on Prism Armor that means Mega Gyarados or Excadrill are useless against them!

RotomDex will allow yo to use a 2nd Z-Move in Battle (totally broken!!!) and RotoPon will allow you to find hidden item.

I feel like this will only be usable outside of PvP battles like Amie/Refresh effects until officially confirmed.

Also this:

In The Games Department

Pokémon Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon

The Pokémon Global Link is to go down for maintenance on November 10th 2017 at 00:00 UTC until some point on November 17th 2017 where it opens up for Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon connectivity. During this period, all functions that require the Pokémon Global Link will not work in Pokémon Sun & Moon. Afterwards, the Global Link will open up and, according to the English Global Link, you will receive a special gift when you register Pokémon Ultra Sun or Ultra Moon to your account

Now that Mimikyu is confirmed to have a Z-Move and the image on the right of the box is identical from the footage in the initial reveal trailer, I expect Togedemaru to get one since it had a cutscene in the initial reveal trailer along with Lycanroc Midday and Necrozma (Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings), who also got Z-Moves. There's no way it wouldn't at this point.

Famitsu gave us new informations like the fact you can encounter Legendaries like Mewtwo in other Ultra Dimensions.

New post league content was annonced too.

 

Pray for the end of shinylock of Zygarde ^^ And if possible Mythical Pokemon encounters via DLC.

Right, there was indicated on Serebii's page as well!

I had a feeling they'd do that with Ultra Space like they did with the Hoopa portals in ORAS, since they usually seem to make all pokemon available one way or another per generation.

And with ORAS they didn't shiny-lock any of the portal legends, allowing the first shiny Reshiram and Zekrom. I don't think Zygarde will be obtainable through Ultra Space though, but maybe. Other than Zygarde, I think only UBs, Tapus, and certain mythicals are still shiny locked. Depending on how the UB ultra spaces work, hopefully we can catch them as shiny this time. Otherwise we'd still have way too many shiny locked pokemon that'll likely not all get distributions.

At least we'll be able to shinyhunt Xerneas/Yveltal

This is pretty interesting; quote from Serebii: "It confirms that the game is further detailed than people believe with there being further post-game story content than before, saying it is far more in-depth than Pokémon Platinum and that the story is twice that of Pokémon Sun & Moon's."

Edit:

http://www.siliconera.com/2017/10/17/pokemon-ultra-sun-moon-isnt-a-sequel-has-a-different-main-story-with-other-worlds-to-visit/

Spoiler

-Junichi Masuda is in charge of fully supervising the game.

-Game Freak was greatly relieved to learn that Z-Moves were well-received by fans.

-For Sun & Moon, Game Freak worked on balancing bosses by making them beatable if players use proper strategies or suffer if they go in recklessly.

-After completing work on Sun & Moon, the staff felt that there was still more they could do in the Alola region.

-The reason they’re releasing Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon is to offer players some variety before the current image they get stuck with the same image of Alola.

-The story isn’t a “sequel.” It’s a “story that has a little divergence” from Sun and Moon.

-Characters from the “Ultra Recon Squad” make an appearance, and that’s where the story changes. They appear at the opening of the game, so you’ll be able to start the game with excitement.

-On top of a different main story from Sun & Moon, there’s an additional new episode after entering the Hall of Fame. Game Freak teases that those who are looking at it as what Platinum was to Diamond and Pearl, can expect an even more ultra huge change coming.

-The Ultra Recon Squad arrived from another world through an Ultra Wormhole. A new element is being prepared that will have the protagonist and company dive into the Ultra Wormhole and visit all kinds of different worlds.

-Pokémon will be much easier to collect and train compared to Sun and Moon.

-Using the “Ultra Warp Ride” to travel to other worlds, you’ll even get to visit a world with Legendary Pokémon. For example, you can meet and catch Mewtwo. That’s all Game Freak has to say about that for now and they’ll leave it to your imagination whether we’ll get to meet other Legendary Pokémon.

-If we put it simply as far as story volume goes, the addition of Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon should about double the current story volume for the Sun & Moon generation.
