Pokemon, Part 2

[MrTharne]

Been looking at the map on that, on the snow mountain island, in the town on the north coast, is a sort of zen garden looking thing with a tower like the Tin Tower.

Also : Snow mountain island = Ice Gym (again...) confirmed. (God I hope not)

Also, an enormous tree; bigger than any other tree on that map. Maybe another legendary's domain?

The left most island (with the canyons) definitely looks like it's the island with ancient civilization vibes. There is only one town on it by the looks of it, and even then that town is on a boardwalk - almost like they don't want to build on the island itself.

ah i forgot about multiscale

well both are stupid, like always. XY legs ability were also bad

With them supposedly being "new" abilities, I wonder if there will be any secondary effect to them or if they're just that clueless. Clear Body + fire immunity and Multiscale + dark immunity would be fitting for them.

But not getting my hopes up.

I personally think the white structure in the middle of the ocean is the Pokemon League.

I don't know, I already have a hard time finding a place where the two main Legendaries could be (especially Lunala)

In Gengar's case "I'm gonna fucking haunt your arse..."

each mon has it's own type of revenge

I'm most interested by the northern city on the big island that is surrounded by the giant stone wall.

For anyone craving more, they will be at E3.

If so what about Victory Road ?

On the website, they say that Alola is formed of 4 natural islands and 1 man-made island, what if the white structure is this island but it's bigger and underwater and we just see the access point.

If it's not annoying in the game, it will be in the anime.

don't care about the anime, just watching once in a while

Yeah so, if you want full detailed maps of the islands :

I probaly missed some detail. Map doesnt look that small if you add lots of caves. And forest areas are probaly instanced, so 2-3 times the size of map.

That is so much stuff to theorize about....I can't even *white girls out*

Legendary Psyhic/steel...immune to debuffs...kinda OP.

It's banned in competitive so balancing isn't a problem when it comes to legendaries; they're supposed to be OP for PvE.

The first trailers show that the starting area is actually

Proffesor getting hit by a pokemon.....doesnt this sound a bit familiar like Ash mega evolution?

What kind of competitive are we talking about here ?
Because in VGC : Xerneas, Yveltal, Groudon, Kyogre and Rayquaza would like a word with you.
And in Smogon format, well you can still play Uber, and some Legendaries are played in other formats (though the main ones are all Uber)

I'm not talking about non-standard competitive modes.

I'm not talking about non-standard competitive modes.

For Nintendo and Game Freak standard is VGC, since it's the only one with a real "official" competitive scene.

Um... the standard ranked mode built into the game? The one you don't need to sign up for a tourney to join...

If they were concerned with the VGC, then don't worry; they'll introduce Pokemon or abilities that can help counter it (Mold breaker, anyone?)

In the middle of the west section of this map, you can see what appears to be the resort/hotel that was first seen in the initial concept art.
