I don't know how kosher it is to talk about leaks spoilers in this topic, but there's a new electric 'mon been leaked, and it makes me very happy, but I also have some questions about its design.

A new Electric Pokemon? I seem to have missed it, which one are you talking about?

Spoiler:

https://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/alolan-raichu/

As a Psychic type, Alolan Raichu can levitate, and it brings its (more rounded) lightning-bolt tail underneath its feet when it does so, like a surfboard - surfing on nothing but air.

But I do wonder what's up with those ears - what are they supposed to be, exactly?

Its perfectly alright to talk about it, coz its been confirmed, so presenting - the Alolan Raichu

I really luv its design, imo its awesome ^^.

Also it has a unique typing - Electric/Psychic & a unique Ability - Surge Surfer.

It changed form in Alola, coz "it ate too many sweet & fluffy round pancakes!"

What? Lol {XD}

Sounds good! I'd like to pick up a new baby Pichu, and evolve Mareep into a Flaaffy - who I'll rename Lilac, that's more fitting for evolution. :3

I know nothing about Elite Four. I've only made it that far in one of the games and couldn't beat 'em. And I don't find the humans an interesting part of the character cast in Pokemon, honestly. That's my opinion. Pokemon is far better at making animals interesting than humans.

Sorry I am not often here lately, so I'm gonna talk about old news hehe.

Raichu Alola form!

... The one I like less? Not that I totally dislike it but it doens'T appeal to me. Maybe it's because it is part electric type and I don't see this at all?

Why would it not be part electric type...?
And what do you not see?
Confused by your meaning.

You don't get why it has a psychic typing? Let me refer you to a part of an earlier post of mine.

It helps if you watch it in motion. https://youtu.be/Py2LxgWBaRQ?t=2m38s

While I do think that the Alola Raichu has an awesome design & its Psychic typing does make sense, I have a question, which I think can make a good topic for discussion.

Speaking of puns, don't u guys think there are too many "punny" Pokemon this time. I wonder how many more we're gonna have :P

And Flare, will be waiting for ur drawings! {:3}

#2) Will/Should Pikachu & Pichu also get Alola Forms?

I would like to say no as Pikachu as the mascot should stay as it is, but then I suppose if you're injecting new forms and life into Generaton I, it would make sense to give Pikachu an Alola Form.

Exactly, I would not want an Alolan Pikachu, even if there is one, I hope they don't mess around much with the original. If u ask me though, I'd still say, I would NOT want one.

Btw, we already have a "Pikachu" in Alola, not hard to guess which one I'm talking about ;)

I really hope they would give them Alola Forms, and forms for every Pokemon that gets one(like Marowak- Cubone better get one too....) but knowing Pokemon they probably wont give one to each line that they choose. At least Vulpix and Sandshrew did, the lines that matters most. v_v

 

[DyingWillFlareon]

SORRY FOR THE DOUBLE POST BUT I ACTUALLY DID IT

[Afterglow Ampharos]

Very nice, Will!
Speaking of Alolan Pichu/Pikachu...

Darnit I saw those the other day I completely forgot!

Floatie Pichu... Too much cute....

Plus on this topic what about Puka? The surfing Pikachu from the old anime? :p

 

[Sunshine Moonlight]

#2) Will/Should Pikachu & Pichu also get Alola Forms?

Alola Raichu is really cute. Yes there should be Alola Pikachu & Alola Pichu, it would be kewl.

#1) Which is your favourite Electric Type Pokémon, released so far, in Sun & Moon?
Hmm... I used to root more for Vikavolt, but the fact that Alolan Raichu is there, the latter might ended up to be my fave Electric Alolan Pokémon.

#2) Will/Should Pikachu & Pichu also get Alola Forms?
Personally I think Pikachu and Pichu are fine as they are, even though I also wish they can learn Surf normally for some reason just in case if Alolan Raichu can learn one. Besides, I think the Pokémon-Amie cutscene on one of the latest Sun and Moon trailers shows that Pikachu's still in usual form, so I think it's less likely for Pikachu and Pichu to have them atm.

Plus on this topic what about Puka? The surfing Pikachu from the old anime? :p

Oh my, I almost forgot that one! I'm wondering if Alolan Raichu somehow learned Puka's techniques somewhere.
