Unfortunately that's only half of my planned team (Raichu, Lycanroc, Popplio final evo) for this first island, so I may have to use random previous-gen Pokemon as fillers until the later islands.

Do you think we'll get Lapras surf before leaving the first island? The only new Pokemon I'm really interested in using here is the "Crown of Thorns" Pokemon (well maybe Crabrawler too) and it's probably only accessible by surfing...

I feel like it's possible we'll get Lapras surf early since the Sharpedo one seems like more of a late game thing since it can break rocks.

In a way it seems kinda crazy to me that Rufflet and Vullaby are available so early, I remember them being REALLY late in the game back in gen 5. Too bad I'm picking Rowlet I guess.

MKC October 22nd, 2016 12:06 PM

Surprisingly many of my favourites are there, I can't believe Klefki made it considering how little 6th gen Pokemon are there, I hope you can find them early in game.

Dillon_68 October 22nd, 2016 5:21 PM

A lot of my faves are missing, which is a good thing because I never repeat Pokemon that were in another region's party. So Im encouraged to try new ones or use old Pokemon I could never fit into my other teams. One that I am thankful is in the game is Garbodor. In the last few years I have grown to absolutely love it but refused to sacrifice the Poison type I had in my Unova team (Scolipede), so I can finally add him to my crew. =)

Florges October 22nd, 2016 5:25 PM

THERE'S MY BOY WHIMSICOTT

Plus, Clefairy is available. I plan on using it in Moon. I don't plan on using Whimsicott since I plan on using Rowlet3, Tsareena, and Lurantis.

clbgolden October 22nd, 2016 6:02 PM

Going by that datamined list, currently, no.

But my favorite Pokémon is a starter (Swampert, to be exact), so I'm kind of used to it by now. :(

Rengoku October 22nd, 2016 7:28 PM

In a video I've watched about them being interviewed-- They said that only Kanto Pokemon were given Alolan forms because they're more recognised amongst the older generation of Pokemon players than the other generations. Probably their way to try pulling back the oldest generation to play Pokemon again. That being said, my friends all expressed interests in Pokemon again ever since I'd been posting on Sun and Moon on Facebook. I guess it does help, afterall my generation was the one whom grew up with Kanto!

Solar Snivy October 22nd, 2016 8:07 PM

Sadly, my absolute favorite pokemon never had a chance, being a starter pokemon.

However, I do like Pichu, Phantump, and Shellos. The latter two don't matter though, as I'm planning on using exclusively new pokemon anyway, but Pichu will make it on the team because of Alolan Raichu.

Maserati777 October 22nd, 2016 8:12 PM

Well they completely shunned Oddish so no Vileplume, and Ninetales got an Alola form which is pretty rare, though regular Ninetales is my favorite Pokemon and it's only available by trading as well.

Frozocrone October 22nd, 2016 9:03 PM

Love that Scizor is in. Disappointed that Hydreigon didn't make it, being the only pseudo-legendary not shown any love. At least Tyranitar has a Mega Evo.

Sabrewulf238 October 23rd, 2016 7:54 AM

I found this picture on 4chan and uploaded it to imgur. It lists Pokemon by the island they first appear on. I've found it handy to get an idea of what I might want to catch.

https://imgur.com/a/zLK7q#DZslJIK

Yellow is Melemele island, pink is Akala, red is the bottom right (3rd island) and purple is the leftmost region with the Pokemon boats.

Seems like a pretty even distribution. Majority of my planned team can be caught on the second island which I'm happy with. There's also a text breakdown of the Pokémon for each island here.

Thunderflare October 23rd, 2016 11:21 AM

I feel like my team is naked if I don't have Crobat in it.

εcho. October 23rd, 2016 11:49 AM

All my top favourites are there, yes! Ninetales, Vaporeon & Whimsicott.

If only Houndour/Houndoom was available too, everything would be perfect.

This looks weird, why has the smallest island the most Pokémon? And the most frustrating is that the Pokémons that I want to capture and put in my team are on the third island.

The smallest island doesn't have the most Pokemon. (each island has around 100-120 Pokemon if I recall) This image is just showing the first appearance of each Pokemon line. (for example the Wimpod line first appears on Akala (pink) and then again on the last island (purple) but in this image it's only showing where you can first obtain it. (which is the pink island, Akala)

There's a lot of overlap between the islands, so obviously this image has more Pokemon for the first island because every Pokemon on the first island is shown.

It's going by the idea that the order you visit the islands is: Melemele (Yellow), Akala (pink), bottom right island (red), leftmost island (purple).

I'm dying to see how they work my boy Porygon into these games. Free gift? The new Togepi? Game Corner returning?

Since the Game Corner isn't going to happen in any future games due to family friendliness and wanting to avoid a 12 rating in Europe, I think returning as a gift could be most possible.

Also Sabrewulf, that Imgur link isn't working.

T-roy October 23rd, 2016 3:35 PM

I'm happy that a lot of my favorites are on this list.

TheDeathryder October 23rd, 2016 6:12 PM

I hope that they just haven't showed us that the Gardivoir line actually is there. I need my Gallade. That thing is the ultimate legend hunter.

SoaPuffball October 24th, 2016 12:31 AM

Castform? Yeah.
Buneary? No.
Diancie? A mythical.
Carbink? Satisfies me for the lack of Diancie.
Sylveon? Yeah.

Unfortunately that's only half of my planned team (Raichu, Lycanroc, Popplio final evo) for this first island, so I may have to use random previous-gen Pokemon as fillers until the later islands.

So that is....the first dex?

If so then I'm a bit disappointed. Not because it's bad, but so little new stuff, really? I mean we have the last gen7 mon we'd see in a while in the dex at #29, and there's no more for 30 entries until #59, and no new stuff until #80. I know it's most likely real (and I hope not) and if it isn't then I hope they make some new mons earlier. I'm also surprised with Rufflet and Vullaby being early considering they evolve late(lvl 54).

And why is freaking Cabrink here yux gen6 mons can go die

Hikamaru October 24th, 2016 1:28 AM

After looking at a leaked Dex list on Imgur (with colour coding to show which island that Pokemon is found on) I guess I'll have my planned team completed as early as Akala Island which I'm definitely content with.

Entermaid October 24th, 2016 6:45 AM

Half of my top 10, including my top 4 are included. Not bad. I am hoping more pokemon and unova starters are available post game.

Poppmaid
Milotic
Tsareena
Lilligant

Vespiquen
Liepard
Rapidash - Not in XY
Serperior-Not in XY or ORAS
Samurott - Note in XY or ORAS
Lurantis

Arjay October 24th, 2016 10:40 AM

Finneon/Lumineon, Petilil/Liligant, Poliwag/whirl/wrath/toed, Skarmory and Fletchling/Fletchinder/Talonflame are all in so that's most of my favourites included.
