  • U.U New info!

    It's interesting how they secretly revealed a new Trial Captain.. I mean, at least we know the name and we have the confirmation that there are more than 4 Trial Captains!

    What I'm not sure is, is it 100% sure Never-Ending Nightmare and All-Out Pummeling are the new Z-moves for , respectively, the Ghost and Fighting type? They could be specific Z-moves for Mimikyo and Bewear, even though I doubt it!

  • Well this confirms that one leak or something that said there was more than four Trial Captains. I also have to admit those Ghost and Fighting Z-Moves have some damn scary names, especially the former.

  • Can't wait to see more of these Trial Captains! It's great to practically get confirmation that there are more than four, even if it was kinda obvious. Gonna guess that Ilima is either Fairy-type or Bug-type specialist.

  • So they're saying maybe Ilima's trial is set on Melemele Island? Interesting... Do we know which Trials are located on the first island?

    We already knew we'd have more than four trial captains since when they were first announced, as the Japan site said so and we had that unnamed Yungoos trial (and regardless, I wouldn't really say that a leak saying there'd be more trial captains would confirm it, it's a pretty safe guess).

    But I suppose it's nice to know one of their names.

    I would guess that Ilima is a poison type Trial Captain since the first part probably sounds like 'ill.'
    Grass is already taken (Although I suppose there could be two Captains with the same type.)

  • Yeah, that's what got me thinking he/she will be one of the first Trial Captains we face. Ilima Moth could be connected to them too maybe making them the Bug type Captain?

    So you think Bug or Poison? I feel that if this Trial Captain is faced early (like what the Tumblr link implied) being a Bug specialist would be more plausible. I also remember hearing a rumor the island trials gave you a Z-Crystal of a certain type, with only Poison and Dark omitted, implying those might be the two types left out of Trial Captain specialty since it appears we'll be getting 16 Trial Captains if there's four per island.

  • I wouldn't mind having a Poison-type Trial right off the bat. It surely isn't something you get at the start of your adventure, but I like changing "formulas" (even though this isn't a formula xD).

    Yeah, I suppose Bug type works well too. I didn't realize there was an Ilima Moth

  • Also one thing in the trailer I find interesting is the end, it's likely that that portal thing is just a visual effect to look cool, but it sort of looks like the one that UB 1 comes out of, so I wonder if they are of significance.

    At least we now know that there would be more than one Trial Captain! About time, too. Even though it was probably more or less obvious, but still. Confirmation is nice.
    We've actually known about that for awhile, as the Japan site said there will be more than four Trial Captains (and we always had that unnamed trial with the Yungoos/Raticate as well). This is just our first time "seeing" one other than those four we know of.

  • Joe Serebii mentions on his Twitter that a character named Burnet shows up in the trailer when talking about the Ultra Beasts. He seems to be insinuating it's the same Burnet from the Dream Radar. I thought that was an interesting bit, maybe the UB's are a manifestation of dreams or something.

    - Held item is Snorlium Z, the special Z-Crystal for Snorlax

  • Has no one commented on the very end of the trailer:

    "I can't wait to see you in person, cousin."

    Isn't the prof of the region, Sam Oak's cousin? Does this mean we get a visit from the original Pokemon professor?

    I was just thinking that!
    I hope we get to see him! Maybe he will explain why all the alolan forms are from Kanto or something
