Alolan forms coming to Pokemon GO

[HeroLinik]

Well...that was unexpected. Prepare for surfing Raichu and oversized Exeggutor to invade this game.

They should add a new twist that you can only find it by traversing the seas yourself too.

I wonder how Pikachu will evolve into one or the other. Will you be able to tell it's an Alolan Pikachu, or will it evolve differently when you travel to Hawaii? d:

tfw gen 7 forms make it into the game before gen 4 does. T_T;;;

I'm surprised they're doing this now and not, like, nearer the release of SM/USUM, but I guess the ramp-up for summer makes sense. At any rate, I hope Alolan Vulpix is in the mix! It's my fave Alola form. :D

I'm thinking you'll have to catch Alolan Exeggutor, Marowak and Raichu in the wild.

 

[bobandbill]

My guess is you have an optional evolution, like how Gloom has the choice in evolution, for Pikachu/Cubone/Exeggcute.

 

[Ho-Oh]

Alola Exeggutor y'all! There's apparently a nest near me so imma go catch!
