Interesting. One has 2x weakness to four types. The other has 4x weakness to 2 types. Both have at least one immunity. Believe it or not, I'm actually more underwhelmed by the abilities than the typing, more so because they aren't new effects in any capacity. Lunaala essentially gets Multiscale with a more thematic name which is a pretty solid ability. I am however disappointed in Solgaleo's Full Metal Body, which is pretty much Clear Body with a fancier name. They could have given it a more Solgaleo-relevant variant of Flash Fire, something that upon negating a Fire move rather than boost Fire damage would instead boost defensive stats.
Who cares, the battle tower nonsense that is in every game usually doesn't allow legendaries anyway.

Confirmed that we can use different forms of Zygarde to use in Sun and Moon, so don't worry, Zygarde isn't forgotten!

Also... two new Pokemons revealed for Alola region...
Here's Iwanko (no English name for him yet) and he'll be pure Rock type.

And here's Nekkoala (no English name for him yet and he's purely Normal type.
[Image: http://www.serebii.net/sunmoon/nekkoala.jpg]
What's special about Nekkoala is that he get a new ability called 'Definite Sleep' where he cannot be inflicted with any status such as confusion, paralyze, burn, etc... UNLESS it's related to asleep, so it can be pretty overpowered.

Unless Nekkoala gets a evolution with decent stats it'll be pretty useless though. I hope it gets a good evolution because that ability is fairly unique.

That new mode looks pretty fun, imo.
Wonder what it'd be like if you somehow had to go through one of those in the main game...

Looks super fun vs AI, but if it's PVP then players can just gang up on 1 person and then it probably becomes a bit annoying. I love how Pikipek looks.

Pikipek will definitely (more than likely) be ASh's flying type this time around....unless he (amazingly) actually gets Rowlett.

I really want the Cutiefly Pokemon, it's so precious and it have a good typing (Bug/Fairy) too!
Those Pokemon are interesting though, especially Bruxish and Drampa. Nice to see another Water/Psychic type as we haven't gotten that for a while now.. Drampa's typing are pretty unique though... Normal/Dragon.
Tapu Koko is a strange Pokemon... It really remind me of the Sigilyph from 5th gen but I wonder if Tapu Koko is a legendary Pokemon or not as the the description said something about him being the Guardian of Melemele Island.
As for those bug... They're Bug/Electric which is a nice type but I don't care too much about them and ugh... We got another Pikachu clone... Was hoping we wouldn't get one for this generation but we did.

Bug/Fairy...have fun with those Poison-types.
Can't say I'm surprised at all about the Pikachu-clone / hedgehog (?). I kinda wonder if he'll be able to use Rollout from his shape...and somehow he screams "Lightning Rod'...

I think I'm going to be playing Nuzlocke right from the start.

Not really an issue on its own. Bug hasn't been weak to poison since Gen 1, so it's still only 2x weakness. It would be more fitting to say, "Have fun with those fire, rock, poison, flying and steel types."

Lets see.. So far I like Rowlet, Vikavolt, and Tapu Koko. So out of the currently released Pokemon I don't even have enough to make a full team yet. ):

Bruxish and Tapu Koko have interesting abilities. Hopefully we'll see a few other Pokemon that auto-deploy terrain effects.
I'm hoping for Mega-Froslass. I wonder when they'll announce new megas...

New Pokemon. Not only does it look fun, but its ability allows it to poison any Pokemon, even Poison and Steel types.
