-Do your battles not have enough chaos? Now, you have the opportunity to figth 3 other trainers in a Battle Royale. 3 vs 3 vs 3 vs 3! The battle progresses until one trainer is unable to send out any Pokemon. At this point, points are tallied based on how many Pokemon a single trainer has defeated and how many Pokemon they have left. A winner is determined from this.


Pokedex

-In a rather strange method of creating the most efficient Pokedex, Professor Kukui had a Rotom inhabit it. So now the player has their very own Rotom Pokedex. Not only does it function as a Pokedex (ikr, a pokedex functioning as a pokedex wtf is this), but it also has its own map showing your own location and other places of interest.
-When registering Pokemon in the Pokedex, you'll often see white PokeBall icons next to them. This will indicate that Pokemon has evolutions or other Pokemon related to it.
-Similarly to Kalos, there are multiple Pokedexes for the different islands of Alola. There is a Melemele Pokedex.


Hyper Training
-By exchanging Bottle Caps, you are able to increase a Level 100 Pokemon's IVs.
-This exists as a shop in the Alola Region.
-While it is currently unknown how to get Bottle Caps normally, the Magearna distributed will hold one, the Silver Bottle Cap.

Spoiler: Previous Topic 2

Several months ago, four new formes of Zygarde have been revealed. In addition, the form of the Zygarde we've known since its first appearance in XY has been identified as Zygarde 50% Forme. And now recently, a new Mythical Pokemon has been revealed.

Zygarde Cell

This stage has been identified as the single Cells that make up Zygarde. Cells do not possess any will or thought processes. They're found scattered throughout the region. Since they can't use any moves, researchers question whether they can even be called Pokémon!

Zygarde Core

At this stage, this aspect of Zygarde is little more than a part of the Pokémon's brain. Unlike the Cells, the Cores are self-aware and can communicate with Cells and other Cores via telepathy. When a change occurs in the local region's ecosystem, Cores have been known to take action.

Zygarde 10% Forme

Type: Dragon/Ground
Zygarde 10% is the Forme that the Zygarde Core takes when it gathers 10% of the Cells nearby. Capable of traveling over 60 mph (100 km/h), it defeats enemies with its sharp fangs and its incredible speed.

Zygarde Complete Forme / Zygarde Perfect Forme

Type: Dragon/Ground
This is the perfect Forme that Zygarde takes when the Core gathers 100% of the Cells. When the ecosystem is under threat, and the Core concludes that the 50% Forme will be unable to deal with it, the Core takes on the Complete Forme. Its power is said to be greater than that of the Legendary Pokémon Xerneas and Yveltal!

Magearna/Magiana

Artificial Pokémon

Feel free to discuss Zygarde's formes and Magearna. This thread will be converted into a new game thread if and when a main series game featuring these new formes and Pokemon is announced.

Spoiler: Previous Topic

Welp, apparently I spoke too soon when I said it was too earlier for Gen 7 Pokémon.

Gin of Sunyshore, having seen the new Pokemon movie, Hoopa & The Clash of Ages, reported to have seen a new Pokémon during the trailer for the next movie. As described by Gin, it appears to be a small, bright green blob-like entity with one eye larger than the other. It appeared from the O in Pokemon and moved about it. This was followed by the silhouette revealed a few days ago. Gin came up with several sketches based off of what she remembers:

Spoiler

Now with that said, it's still unknown what this thing even is. Until footage of the trailer is provided, we're not getting a clear image of it any time soon. And even then, it'll be a while before we even find out what this is. Hell, it may not even be a new Pokémon, but some bizarre forme of a Pokémon we already know of. Regardless, this thing is bizarre enough to bring attention to.

So I suppose until an appropriate new game thread(s) thread is made, this thread can be used for discussion of this... thing, and the silhouette featured in the same trailer:

Spoiler

 

RE: And Suddenly a New Pokémon?

Well, that didn't take long...


Anyway, good thing Serebii knows a good number of people. A friend of his saw the movie and provided a more accurate sketch of this new Pokemon:

The stomach area is reported to be red.
For how bizarre is still looks, I kinda like it... I'm not sure why exactly, but just something about it interests me... Maybe it's just the differently-sized eyes. idk


In addition, the silhouetted Pokemon was reported to have hexagons pulsating around it. So really, either this really is a Zygarde forme, or Hexidos has undergone the most fucked up mutation ever.


EDIT (8/1/2015): Looks like someone decided to take a picture of this new Pokemon, giving us a... well, can't exactly say clear image... but probably the best image we've got of it other than the one above:

 

RE: And Suddenly a New Pokémon?

CoroCoro has been leaked once more, showing this green blob. It will appear in the upcoming Mega Evolution Special IV alongside Zygarde. No other info on it, although we apparently will be getting info on it and the silhouette in the next issue.



So we're certainly getting info on these two a lot sooner than I was expecting.

 

RE: All of the Zygardes

CoroCoro leaked, and those two were revealed to be formes of Zygarde. BUT, it turns out that Zygarde has five formes.

• The roadkill one is Zygarde Cell.
• The blob we saw before is Zygarde Core.
  • When a Zygarde Core merges with multiple Zygarde Cell, it becomes the brain for its other formes.
• The dog-like entity is Zygarde 10% form.
• The Zygarde we've known since its reveal is Zygarde 50% Forme.
• Finally, the silhouette is Zygarde Perfect Forme. Its power is said to exceed Xerneas and Yveltal. Why not? I mean you already counter their abilities...

 

RE: All of the Zygardes

While that is true, most of those points aren't relevant to this thread. For the time being, this thread's meant for the discussion of Zygarde's new formes.

That said, I'm really liking 10%. It looks like the kind of dog I'd want to own if I actually wanted a dog. Though I find it kinda hilarious how this:

eventually becomes this:

I'd say it makes very little sense, but then again this Pokemon we're talking about.

I kinda wish we had a typing for this revealed, though something tells me we'll find more about it and the other formes as we get closer to games they can be used in.

 

RE: All of the Zygardes

Would you want to level a Legendary to Lv 100 just to evolve them? Like knowing these guys, that's probably what we'd have to go through to evolve them. And getting a Hydreigon through traditional means is enough of a tedious task in of itself if you ask me.

By all means, it's probably best that their formes changes work the way they do. It makes it possible to go back and forth between them without having to go out of your way to catch another one. And with how Zygarde Core and Zygarde Cell seem to function, it may be possible to split them apart to get them back.

 

RE: All of the Zygardes

As usual, we have the time where stuff revealed in CoroCoro revealed on the official site. Which of course means the new Zygarde formes have clean art:



For those living in North America, Zygarde Cell, Zygarde Core, Zygarde 10% Forme and Zygarde 50% Forme keep their names, while Zygarde Perfect Forme is Zygarde Complete Forme.

 

RE: All of the Zygardes

If that's the case, then Zygarde Cell must be the Beast Boy from Teen Titans Go!
