looks like null is just normal, from the box under the artwork. either way, cool armour thing

also that dragon is cute, faticate is ok, and that space jellyfish is cool.

My bet is that the Aether guys are the real villains. Maybe you really do get to join Team Skull later in the game.

Nor Rattata. I remember yanking all sorts of legendaries just after Bank dropped.

Here, because I have nothing better to do with my time (hence I started playing Pokemon), I checked against some GameFaqs list of all the mons you can get in X/Y. The Gen 1 mons you can't get in X/Y are:

Rattata / Raticate
Clefairy / Clefable
Vulpix / Ninetales
Paras / Parasect
Venonat / Venomoth
Meowth / Persian
Mankey / Primeape
Growlithe / Arcanine
Ponyta / Rapidash
Seel / Dewgong
Grimer / Muk
Drowzee / Hypno
Krabby / Kingler
Hitmonlee / Hitmonchan
Koffing / Weezing
Chansey
Tangela
Electabuzz
Magmar
Porygon
Omanyte / Omastar
Kabuto / Kabutops
Mew

So, 40/151. Although some of those (obviously Meowth, for example) will probably show up in Sun/Moon, though.

They're both gonna be bad. But i'll like Skull better because Guzma's my boy.

From the video thumbnail I thought Type:Null was gonna be a third stage for Mudsdale where it got armor and became a knight's horse with steel typing.

Maybe they'll pull an Aqua/Magma and each version will feature one team as villians and the other one as support. After all, twelve hours is more than enough time to go heel.

Also looking forward to Sun2Moon2, taking place 24 hours after the events of SunMoon.

This, if Aether are also bad guys then they'll probably be the one with the plan to destroy the world and not Team Skull making Team Skull the best team.

Hopefully they clarify the whole "12 hours" thing. If that means playing moon at night means it's morning in game, I could get behind it.

quote:

UB-01’s body is composed of a glass-like substance. However, it’s constantly changing shapes, never settling on one.

While evidence of something like a survival instinct can be observed in UB-01, no one knows whether it has a will of its own or any emotions. It’s said that, for some reason, its movements resemble those of a young girl.

Lillie is an Ultra Beast confirmed.

That's pretty cool. Definitely leaning towards Moon, especially if Misdreavus is moon exclusive over Drifblim like the Japanese trailer suggested. I've been wanting to use Mismagius for a while. Also, playing moon would mean I would not have to face my friend Gumshoos and just beat up a rat instead, which is the better option.

ok i take it back, i'll give it a 50% chance that team aether is behind the ultra beast thing, or at the very least, just the sketchy scientist dude is. the hot glasses babe definitely is not evil.

"It appears that the Aether Foundation is also conducting research on these Ultra Beasts."

If not straight-up villains, there's no way the foundation will be completely on the straight and narrow. They're very conspiciously white.
