A sneak peek has been released showcasing some of the new features of Pokemon Sun & Moon.


 * The overworld system seems to have been overhauled, providing a much better look of the area that you are exploring. Here is an image showcasing the forest, which looks absolutely marvelous:

 * A new form of evolution seems to be on the horizon which may have something to do with the bracelet. That's just speculation though. Here's the Pikachu image in question, notice the gold streaks:

 * This one showcases you riding a Stoutland through the mountains using a device. I'm glad that this is making a return!

The English trailer has released and brings tid-bits of additional news:


 * Tapu Koko will be met in an ancient underground cave as it's curiosity leads to it battling a trainer that it becomes interested with, before the player has his first rival battle at the festival that celebrates the journey that the trainers will embark on as well as the guardian of the island, Tapu Koko itself.

Bruxish (Water/Physic) will have the ability Dazzle that can prevent moves with a speed priority from hitting. This is important for competitive play as it is essentially Talonflame's gimmick.

Speaking of Bruxish, lifeguards use it in order to prevent themselves from dangerous Water-type Pokemon. It emits a strong Psychic power from the protuberence on it's head that makes it's opponents helpless as they are struck with terrible headaches and fall unconcious. The Psychic power can also serve as a radar when it goes underwater.

Cutiefly's auras resemble those of flowers in full bloom. They gather near people or Pokemon that are particularly feeling happy or sad. They are typically found in meadows and forests but can appear in towns and gather inside buildings as well.

Drampa set out at dawn from the high-altitudes of the mountains in order to scavenge for berries. They are extremely gentle with children and appear at schools and parks where children gather. (I remember an episode of the anime where they showcased a town with children that played with Dunsparce, just saying.) It will fly into a rage if a child is hurt in some way and has the ability Berserk.

The English name for Nekkoala is Komala. They say that if you take a small amount of it's saliva and drink it, you'll be able to sleep well. It clings to a log pillow that it's parent have given it. If it loses this log, it will not be able to sleep well and thrash about wildly. However, it can cling to the arm of a trainer it trusts. It has the Comatose ability that keeps it in a drowsy state and prevents it from being inflicted by other status moves.

Rockruff is the name of the Japanese Pokemon Iwanko. It greets others by rubbing the rocks on it's neck against it's trainer and other Pokemon. This is an expression of fondness but traienrs may find that love hurts.
