NEW ULTRA BEAST LEAKED BY GAMEFREAK STAFFER

It's... a treat.

I'm a big fan of the day/night evolution thing, which is a great moneyspinner by Gamefreak if they do it right, but Ultra Beasts seem a bit off.

In fairness compared to some of the things Gamefreak has done it isn't that bad.

Can we ignore all that and stand in amazement that Ash is finally starting school?

I like jj's way of thinking, comparing the Ultra Beasts to PokéStar Studios props in terms of how they'd be handled. I think that sounds like how they might handle them.

As for Ultra Beasts themselves, it was certainly a surprising development, but yeah, I don't think it's any weirder than anything we actually call a Pokémon.

And as for that Rockruff evolution, the night form really appeals to me. Making me definitely want to keep Rockruff on the team instead of Minior, though I'd still like a little reassurance that Poké Ride will completely eliminate the need for Fly before I finalize anything.

Why am I getting the feeling that there's some kind of link between the Ultrabeasts and Ash-Greninja.

Probably because they may well be some sort of weird human-Pokemon fusion.

This so much. Which means that gymleaders probably are not going to be a thing in Hawai. Wonder what the goal is though, bad guy plot aside.

Kush, you're a bit late on the uptake. Someone over on Serebii already made that joke on the first day these things were revealed!

On that note, it seems that the UB's are modeled after creatures that are considered pests in the real world, at least so far. UB-01's a jellyfish, which are generally disliked around commercial beaches, UB-02: Beauty ironically is an albino cockroach (just look at that 'hair'!), and UB-02: Expansion is, to quote Emi, a BUFF MOSQUITO, complete with an almost blood-red pallet. Whether or not this trend will continue, who knows.

That said, I still don't like the 02's. Night!Rockpupper, on the other hand, has grown on me throughout the day, so cheers for that, I guess!

DAMN IT KUSH I RUSHED HOME FROM CLASS AND YOU BEAT ME TO THE JOKE

After reading through the posts, I'm going to give a +1 to Emi.

I like Beauty UB02 and Day evolution Rockruff better (for now)

Whilst I reserve the right to be disappointed if it turns out they're handled badly, right now I'm just super hyped that gamefreak is being so bold with this generation. Let's be honest, as much as they really polished it up with BW/2 and ORAS the old formula is still wearing a little thin imo.

Good to know Sun/Moon continues to prove I disagree with everything outside of the actual new Pokémon


Seriously, the new Pokémon are the only things I actually like about SM so far.

I still think Alolaformes are dumb, UBs are dumb, team skull and aether's cool tho, this game is dumb gemafrek boicots plas



UB-01 is pretty tho.
Looks like Lillie which is weird tbh



Also Ash is going to school.
wtfffffff even
What possible plot or goal could this even have

Maybe they realised how stupid he was and decided he needed to get smarter because bland idiot protagonists are dumb?

Or, maybe, and I can only hope, they're making him grow up so they can retire him and we can have a good protag in the anime for once.

I was on Instagram and there are SO many people that are mad they don't see Serena in the picture. Like yeah I'm pretty mad too but Ash's companions aren't comfirmed yet so they may announce it at the last second. I dunno tho I'm still so mad

Why would literally anyone expect Serena to be there? They don't build the companions to last anymore, they haven't for years. Anger's a pretty strong emotion for something everyone knew was going to happen and has happened several times already.

Because Serena was set up to be Ash' girlfriend, unlike the others.

Ash will never progress as a character in any facet. This applies to personal relationships, actually being able to win shit at the end of the season, so on and so forth.

This much has been made obvious over the years and this is unlikely to change unless Ash becomes unpopular with the young crowd.

It was some bs to make it far for black/white, then have to face a trainer with both a darkrai and a latios. Tobias probably hacked them

Also Tobias was Diamond and Pearl, not black and white. But he was a big cheat alright. Would have liked it better if Ash brought Charizard and downed one more of his leggies though.
