Decidueye attacks with astonishing speed, plucking arrow quills from its wings to send them hurtling towards its target with precise aim. This Pok\u00e9mon is able to move about whilst completely masking its presence from others. Decidueye is the only Pok\u00e9mon that can learn the move Spirit Shackle. This new Ghost-type move hits an opponent and makes it unable to leave the battle\u2014it can\u2019t flee or switch out.<\/p>\n<p><b>Incineroar<\/b><br \/>\nType: <b>Fire\/Dark <\/b><br \/>\nThe Heel Pok\u00e9mon Incineroar is the fully evolved form of the Fire-type first-partner Pok\u00e9mon Litten. As Incineroar\u2019s fighting spirit increases, the flames it produces within its body burst from its navel and waistline. These flames resemble a championship belt, which it uses to unleash its moves. Incineroar is the only Pok\u00e9mon able to learn the move Darkest Lariat. This new Dark-type physical attack allows Incineroar to deal damage to an enemy whilst ignoring the effects of any stat changes on that enemy.<\/p>\n<p><b>Primarina<\/b><br \/>\nType: <b>Water\/Fairy<\/b><br \/>\nThe Soloist Pok\u00e9mon Primarina is the fully evolved form of the Water-type first-partner Pok\u00e9mon Popplio. As Primarina dances, it releases balloons of water and controls their movement using the sound waves from its voice. Primarina uses some of these balloons to jump on and maneuver in battle whilst others explode when touched, which can trigger chained explosions. Primarina is the only Pok\u00e9mon that can learn Sparkling Aria, a new Water-type special move which heals the burns of any target it strikes.<\/p>\n<p><center> <\/p>\n<div class=\"tumblr-post\" data-href=\"https:\/\/embed.tumblr.com\/embed\/post\/jQUko9niqkGxW6XoVVWQ4w\/152531520385\" data-did=\"53498727d8404aafcb73a078a0dc428f85b27a90\"><a href=\"http:\/\/darkainartsgamers.tumblr.com\/post\/152531520385\/more-at-httpgamersdarkainartscom\">http:\/\/darkainartsgamers.tumblr.com\/post\/152531520385\/more-at-httpgamersdarkainartscom<\/a><\/div>\n<p>  <script async src=\"https:\/\/assets.tumblr.com\/post.js\"><\/script><\/center><\/p>\n<p><b>Cosmog<\/b><br \/>\nType: <b>Psychic<\/b><br \/>\nThe Nebula Pok\u00e9mon Cosmog is extremely rare, known only to a select few across Alola. Named by the Aether Foundation, Cosmog is very curious, and its gaseous body is so lightweight that it\u2019s sent flying when the wind blows. When light falls on the Pok\u00e9mon, Cosmog can absorb it and grow bigger.<\/p>\n<p><b>Alolan Persian <\/b><br \/>\nType: <b>Dark<\/b><br \/>\nAlolan Persian is highly intelligent and doesn\u2019t like to grow attached to its Trainer, making it something of a difficult Pok\u00e9mon to have as a battle partner. The round face of Alolan Persian is a symbol of the rich Alola region, and it is held to be a Pok\u00e9mon of great beauty. Its exquisite coat shines with the glow of high quality and enchants both humans and Pok\u00e9mon. For this reason, it is a very popular Pok\u00e9mon in the Alola region.<\/p>\n<p><center> <\/p>\n<div class=\"tumblr-post\" data-href=\"https:\/\/embed.tumblr.com\/embed\/post\/jQUko9niqkGxW6XoVVWQ4w\/152531578970\" data-did=\"53498727d8404aafcb73a078a0dc428f85b27a90\"><a href=\"http:\/\/darkainartsgamers.tumblr.com\/post\/152531578970\/more-at-httpgamersdarkainartscom\">http:\/\/darkainartsgamers.tumblr.com\/post\/152531578970\/more-at-httpgamersdarkainartscom<\/a><\/div>\n<p>  <script async src=\"https:\/\/assets.tumblr.com\/post.js\"><\/script><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Also unveiled were three Alola region guardian deities\u2014Tapu Lele, Tapu Bulu and Tapu Fini:<\/p>\n<p><b>Tapu Lele <\/b><br \/>\nType: <b>Psychic\/Fairy <\/b><br \/>\nTapu Lele is the guardian deity of Akala island. This Pok\u00e9mon scatters glowing scales that have physical effects on others\u2014providing stimulation to their bodies and healing their illnesses or injuries. Tapu Lele has the Ability Psychic Surge, an Ability that no other Pok\u00e9mon has previously had. With Psychic Surge, the field will be turned into Psychic Terrain, which boosts the power of any Psychic-type moves used by Pok\u00e9mon on the ground and prevents them from being hit by priority moves.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tapu Bul u<\/strong><br \/>\nType: <b>Grass\/Fairy <\/b><br \/>\nTapu Bulu is the guardian deity of Ula\u2019ula Island. This Pok\u00e9mon has the power to manipulate vegetation and cause it to grow. It can use this power to make its wooden horns change shape and grow larger. Tapu Bulu has the Ability Grassy Surge, an Ability that no other Pok\u00e9mon has previously had. With Grassy Surge, the field will be turned into Grassy Terrain, boosting the power of any Grass-type moves used by Pok\u00e9mon on the ground and restoring a bit of HP to them each turn. It also halves the damage taken from the moves Earthquake, Magnitude and Bulldoze.<\/p>\n<p><b>Tapu Fini<\/b><br \/>\nType: <b>Water\/Fairy<\/b><br \/>\nTapu Fini is the guardian deity of Poni Island. This Pok\u00e9mon is able to attack by manipulating water. It does not like to risk being harmed during battle, so it creates a thick fog to disorient its opponents and lead them to their own destruction. Tapu Fini has the Ability Misty Surge, an Ability that no other Pok\u00e9mon has previously had. With Misty Surge, the field will be turned into Misty Terrain, halving the damage taken by Pok\u00e9mon on the ground from Dragon-type moves and preventing them from being afflicted with status conditions or confusion.<\/p>\n<p><center> <\/p>\n<div class=\"tumblr-post\" data-href=\"https:\/\/embed.tumblr.com\/embed\/post\/jQUko9niqkGxW6XoVVWQ4w\/152531666140\" data-did=\"53498727d8404aafcb73a078a0dc428f85b27a90\"><a href=\"http:\/\/darkainartsgamers.tumblr.com\/post\/152531666140\/more-at-httpgamersdarkainartscom\">http:\/\/darkainartsgamers.tumblr.com\/post\/152531666140\/more-at-httpgamersdarkainartscom<\/a><\/div>\n<p>  <script async src=\"https:\/\/assets.tumblr.com\/post.js\"><\/script><\/center><\/p>\n<p>All of the guardian deities can use the special Z-Move Guardian of Alola. When using this Z-Move, the Pok\u00e9mon closes its shell and a huge avatar appears from the ground to attack the opposing Pok\u00e9mon, dealing damage equal to 75 percent of the target\u2019s remaining HP.<\/p>\n<p>In previous adventures in the Pok\u00e9mon series, the Pok\u00e9mon League was always the ultimate stage for battle. The Pok\u00e9mon League housed the Elite Four (four Pok\u00e9mon Trainers with powerful Pok\u00e9mon partners) and the Champion (who reigned as the region\u2019s top Trainer), all awaiting challengers. In the Alola region, there is no Pok\u00e9mon League yet\u2014but it seems that there are plans to construct one at the peak of a certain mountain. After your major achievement in completing the island challenge, will the day come when you also take on the Pok\u00e9mon League to become the strongest Pok\u00e9mon Trainer?<\/p>\n<p>Somewhere in Alola, you\u2019ll find the Battle Tree. It\u2019s a place where Trainers who have completed their island challenge, or who are strong enough to have done so, battle one another. You can scout an opponent you\u2019ve battled against so they can partner and fight alongside you in future battles. You may even see some familiar faces, including the Trainers Red and Blue from the Kanto region!<\/p>\n<p><center> <\/p>\n<div class=\"tumblr-post\" data-href=\"https:\/\/embed.tumblr.com\/embed\/post\/jQUko9niqkGxW6XoVVWQ4w\/152531720240\" data-did=\"53498727d8404aafcb73a078a0dc428f85b27a90\"><a href=\"http:\/\/darkainartsgamers.tumblr.com\/post\/152531720240\/more-at-httpgamersdarkainartscom\">http:\/\/darkainartsgamers.tumblr.com\/post\/152531720240\/more-at-httpgamersdarkainartscom<\/a><\/div>\n<p>  <script async src=\"https:\/\/assets.tumblr.com\/post.js\"><\/script><\/center><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5uWAMwcRGmU?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nintendo and The Pok\u00e9mon Company International released yet more information on the upcoming Pok\u00e9mon Sun and Pok\u00e9mon Moon games, which will be released in less than a month.
