Pokemon Sun and Moon:
Our First Look at New Starters and the Region
May 10th, 2016
Released earlier today, was our first glimpse of Pokemon Sun and Moon since the announcement of the game a few month ago. The trailer showcased a few of the newest Pokemon to date including legendaries and starters. The footage also gave us a general idea of the region, Alola.
Starters
What better way to start by giving us a look at some of the starters? Starters usuallly are a make-or-break topic for most Pokemon games and are renown for beiing one of the hardest decisions that a gamer has to make. With that let's see if these starters hit the mark.
Rowlet (Mukuroh)
Known as the Grass Quill Pokemon
(or more commonly being called the
Barn Owl Pokemon by fans), Rowlet is
the grass starter Pokemon that the player
can choose from in Sun and Moon. Aside from
being a Grass-type Pokemon, Rowlet has also
been confirmed to also be a Flying-type. Rowlet
also come with a new move, Leafage.
Litten (Nyabby)
Known as the Fire Cat Pokemon (or by some as
the Grumpy Cat Pokemon), Litten is the fire
starter that the player can choose in Sun and
Moon. While they have not released information
about the starter's evolutions, I highly believe
that Litten will likely turn intoa tiger-like Pokemon,
which would be awesome.
Poppilo (Ashimari)
Finally, we have the Sea Lion Pokemon, Poppilo
whih is the water starter that the playr can choose
in Sun and Moon. Poppilo seems to follow the very
recent trend in Water-Types of having some type
of object that they use (i.e. Oshawott and his
scallchop, Froakie and his water shurikens.) In this
case, Poppilo uses water-shaped ballons as his
signature weapon.
