In the latest reveal of Pokémon Sun & Moon news, we were graced of the presence of Alola Ninetales.

Like c'mon. It's Ice/Fairy. It looks majestic and is majestic.

So what are your thoughts on Alola Ninetales? Yay or nay? Do you wish there could've of been a mega for Ninetales instead in the future? Any speculations of Alola Ninetales that correlates to anything else (like possibly Arcanine will be getting an Alolan form)?

Also! One more thought (credit to @Avatar for the idea);
Considering regular Vulpix evolves into Ninetales via fire stone, how do you think Alola Vulpix will evolve into Ninetales? (Let's hope its not evolving around that ice rock.)

I actually want it to evolve around that Ice Rock. It's about time some pokemon used it besides Glaceon.

I'm hoping that we get a snow tiger Arcanine. Sure, it's more of a dog, but it has tiger stripes.

I love Alola Ninetails, it's so beautiful. I think i actually prefer this to a mega Ninetails and the typing is just the end of dragon types altogether. I have no idea about how it will evolve but I have a feeling they may place that ice rock in it's habitat in Alola...

I'm kinda hoping it keeps the same evolution method. From the description of how these forms were created, it sounds like it could be argued that the innate reaction Vulpix has to the Fire Stone that causes it to evolve may still be effective. At least, I think it would be really cool to have an Ice type evolve using a Fire Stone.

I am... so in love... :pink_love: :pink_love: :pink_love:

I already loved Nintales a lot, I feel like this variant is just 10 times more majestic and I want twenty of these babies. Plus it's a dragon type's worst nightmare. Sign me up!

I'd rather Ninetales become part Ghost-Type way before I'd want it as an Ice-Type, but maybe that's just me. At least this design looks nice, but then again, since Ninetales is a well-designed Pokémon to begin with, it seems very difficult to mess it up.

I remember I wanted to use only new Pokemon in my playthrough. Now I feel like I want to revoke that statement thanks to Alola Ninetales.

Just wondering how vulpix will evolve as the normal vulpix uses a fire stone. So either we get a ice stone or it will be like eevee where we have to level it up close to an ice rock. I also want to know if this forms stats gets changed, because sandshrew and sandslash stats are going to be diffrent. Can we breed with the normal versions? Can we get some extra egg moves this way. Possibilities.

I also think that an Ice Arcanine would look really cool, but so would a Ghost Arcanine. I don't think that they would just keep going with older pokemon with new forms though. It might upset some balance in the pokemon world. Unless Tediursa gets a new form and Ursaring becomes part of a split evolution.

Regular Ninetales was already my favourite Pokemon (especially the silvery shiny one), so this just made it twice as much my favourite Pokemon. I can't wait to have both my Kanto and Alola Ninetales on the same team.

same!!! I'd already planned out my team:

3x Ninetales
3x Alola Ninetales

a pretty cool team if I say so myself B)

Interesting, I never thought about this!

I miiiiight be back?
