And the German name, yes. Germany kept nearly all the Japanese names from Dragonball in its dub.

Ah, I thought it was a pun that I didn't get because I don't sprechen sie Deutsch.

Speaking of German Pokemon Names. Noibat's is EF-eM :lol

Yeah and the name of its evolved form, Noivern, is even better: UHaFnir.

Germany got some crazy cool names for Pokémon.

So Power Construct is the English name of Zygarde's Swarm Change ability. Cool. Still super-excited to FINALLY use Zygarde Perfect in the games! And Core Enforcer looks badass!

another new Alola reveal- "Salandit," a Poison/Fire type.

It's Shitty Charmander! :lol

Just kidding, I think Salandit looks cool. Hope it evovles at least once.

Really jealous of all those people with a bunch of Pokémon popping up in their houses in Pokémon Go... Or who have any Pokestops (and gyms even) within walking distance of them...

I've got jack squat. :(

---

More Poison's cool. Guess that claim about wanting to make less common types more prominent has some veracity to it. Being able to poison literally anything is crazy though. ... I like Salandit.

Could someone explain to me why there are a few people in the Pokemon community that think that the story of Sun and Moon is going to be about a Legendary Pokemon War based on the mere existence of Lunaala, Sogaleo, and that one cloud that sort of looks like Ho-oh,and overlapping themes from various mythologies/systems?

Fire/poison sounds like a fun mix (unless you're up against a ground type that is). Will be interested to give it a go.

Speaking of Go, they need to get that out in the rest of the world already :/

You're honestly not missing much. I can see this being a fad that comes and goes.

Oooh, but I work literally at a gym with two Poke spots from the fountains by it.

So IBM is a gym but the huuuge Apple campus connected to my apartments isn't haha.

Because the last game was a war? Honestly a first I'm seeing of it, but then I've not really cared enough to dig into rampant speculation going on. Since that's all it would be at this point. Just don't worry about it if you don't like the theory.

Unless it ends up being true. In which case... Meh, sorry?

Oh yeah... Thanks for ruining it. :P

Took a day after the Australian (edit: Apparently I was wrong, still not even out in Japan yet wow) release for North America to get it... I assumed then it was rolling around the world throughout the day and Europe would be getting it even before us. Sucks that that wasn't the case. :( Hopefully it is soon!

And soon, I need to go on a walk so I can actually do something with this. But damn Texas summer heat that I still don't like... Still jealous of people getting stuff in their damn houses somehow. Really about what I was always expecting this game to be... Don't know why I started letting myself get excited over the past few weeks.

So, the nearest Pokéstops for me are a park and a church...

My sister says that for her, all her nearest ones are churches XD

Man pokemon go is going to be the cause of A LOT of accidents.

Unfortunately, the game isn't avalaible on Canadian Itunes yet.

Oh I'm sure, I'd just like to be in on the fad before everyone drops it :lol

Caught a bunch of Pokémon while walking my dogs. One pic I found funny that I took-

Nubs, use Tackle!

Holy shit VAH Mewtwo and Lucario look amazing! And they're not ridiculously big like their One Piece figures like I feared!

Lucario and Mewtwo pre-orders. Come with a good amount of accessories too.

(Oh, and still haven't found a wild Pokemon in Go.. meh...)

Salandit looks neat. I really enjoy his ability. While his typing won't really be much of a wall breaker (As I don't know whether his ability limits it exclusively to poisoning enemies, or if it means he can hit Steel types with Poison moves, too), it's a neat little ability.

Someone posted on Twitter and they found a Pidgey in a Strip Club on Go...

I found a Rattata in a local grocery store and my brother also found one in the one he works at.

And yes, a lot of Churches are stops for me, except the one right down the road from my house...

I FINALLY started finding wild Pokemon! My first was a Rattata which I caught... And then my second was an Eevee. That I was about to catch right as all the servers went down. :(

Was walking for a bit with a ton of the younger guys here also playing. As they pointed out (and I know they didn't mean to, but it stung), that's the advantage of working in the group most of the young people get hired into - somebody to talk to at work for this and just share similar hobbies. I don't have that... Anywho.

Hope I get another chance at an Eevee in this area in the near future..

There was a Rattata on my bed...

Really enjoying pokemon go, its making me want to go explore round a bit more.

I kept finding Polywags at my work, didn't get a chance to see what's in/ around my flat cause the servers are still down.

Today is already a much better PokeDay. Caught an Eevee, Venonat, and male Nidoran within a couple of minutes while walking around before work. ^_^

Couldn't find that Exeggcute before deciding I should go in though haha.

Just hope I can start leveling stuff up soon - myself and Pokemon - to take on the gym here. Currently controlled by Red, but it must return to its Yellow glory.

Afternoon not as great... Servers crashed with 10 minutes left on my first incense. God freaking damnit... Barely got anything from it...

I saw this on Twitter. Dairy Queen feeding off that Go hype XD

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Cm2_iC-XEAAjz4L.jpg

I saw that too.

Nothing more fun than running outside with my dad trying to catch Pokémon XD

He managed to catch a Meowth and Doduo, while I only caught Nidoran (female)

So here is some rumor Pokémon info

- The supposed new mechanic involving the crystals is called a "Soul Bond"
- Your Pokemon can use a new ultimate move when the Soul Bond meter is full
- The crystals (in the Japanese logo and player's bracelet) are called Bond Gems, that are acquired in the main story
- Two supposed new Pokemon are mentioned - a Water/Normal beaver named Copybara and a Ground/Fighting gorilla named Georilla
- Descriptions of the final starter evolutions - Rowlet becomes an archer that stays Grass/Flying, Litten becomes a muscular bipedal tiger that is Fire/Dark, and Popplio becomes a mermaid-like seal that is Water/Fairy. Seems to likely match this artwork: http://imgur.com/a/xbYQ9
- Lillie is apparently the daughter of the main villain who led a rich company who built an artificial island and has a goal of trying to catch the four island guardians of Alola (one of which we know is Tapu Koko)
- There will be 90 new Pokemon introduced in this generation
- The leaker mentions some of this content will likely get revealed in the trailer due to come out on July 16th
You try to build a league with gyms whereas the evil team wants to make Alola into a touristic paradise opposed to a league?

90 new Pokémon?! Holy Arceus!

I hope we get more boxes in the PC this time.

These rumors from someone in China seem more believable since they leaked Salandit before it was revealed. I'm going to put the rumors in spoiler tags though just so I don't spoil anyone if they end up being true.

Source: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1244221

Today a user at Smogon named Cresselia~ posted that Sandalit, who was just revealed yesterday, had first been mentioned in a Chinese leak he had seen a few weeks ago apparently from the Chinese localization team since Sun and Moon is the first Pokemon game to be officially localized in Chinese IIRC. He provided the list to the mods at Smogon and after deliberating was allowed to post it, presumably as the mods felt it was possibly legitimate, and so I thought it wouldn't hurt to summarize it here. If the mods on NeoGAF feel this thread is inappropriate at the moment feel free to close it until more proof arrives.

Needless to say this information will of course contain major spoilers if legit, so turn back now! Here's a link to the thread on Smogon where the information begins to be posted: http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads...49746/page-199, but I'll summarize it too:

* Rowlet, Litten, and Popplio evolve into an archer, a wrestler, and a siren respectively---this matches this interesting "concept art" that has been circulating for awhile now but has yet to be confirmed or discredited.

* In addition to Salandit, there's New Pokemon based on a mushroom, a dolphin, a sea cucumber, a snowman, and some sort of "rugby monkey"---a monkey with a ball, apparently? If legit I imagine one or two of these Pokemon will be officially revealed soon, perhaps in CoroCoro, and if so that will speak to the legitimacy of this leak.

* Rockruff will evolve into a werewolf. The official site mentions Rockruff howling at night prior to evolution in its flavor text and if this list was originally seen before then, not sure though when it first appeared, that's a plus for it.

* Marshadow, a name we saw trademarked alongside the Box Legendaries a few months ago, apparently has a "very unique Typing". I've been speculating that Marshadow could be similar to Victini as a Mythical Pokemon revealed prior to the release of Sun and Moon, and I wonder if the upcoming Volcanion film could reveal him if my theory is correct at the end like what happened with Victini at the end of the final Diamond and Pearl film.

* There are apparently these special areas on the map that are hidden at first known as "districts" (?) where powerful Pokemon known as Overlords reside. Are these Legendaries? Or are they simply unusually powerful normal Pokemon with Hidden Abilities perhaps?

* No Gym Leaders. We've yet to see any real sign of Gyms this time around, and I was wondering about that honestly. Instead it seems the plot of the game involves forming a League and each Island is protected by an Island Leader. I assume the first one is Hala and Tapu Koko, who we've seen in previews, who serve as the Island Leaders of Melemele Island. It seems an actual Elite Four will eventually appear, perhaps in the post-game.

* The diamonds seen in the logo, and in the bracelets the playable characters wear, are collectible and seem to unlock functions somewhat simillar to Mega Evolution but not quite---perhaps this is related to the "Super Move" Pikachu is shown using in a shot posted to the official site. One of these stones apparently will be used to access Ash-Greninja.

* You can ride almost any Pokemon, though what "almost any" includes isn't quite clear. A recent shot posted to the official site shows the player riding a Stoutland, so if this list was posted before that it's another plus in its authenticity.

Fire starters matching the Chinese Zodiac is getting more and more proven. :lolol

No gyms sounds false. After twenty years doing it, it would be strange to be such a departure in a main game. Something like Ranger/XD, I'd understand. But not in a main series game.;

Downloaded Go earlier. Already have a Bulbasaur and two Ratata.

Went on an early morning jog and finally caught something new! A Ponyta! and also found an Egg!

Thanks to a lucky catch last night, got something kinda strong finally - found a wild Wigglytuff haha! At least I can finally start taking on gyms.

Stardust seems rather hard to get though and you use so much of it... So training anything else is going to take a good long while..

Walked my dogs and caught a Kadabra! And Caterpie hatched out of the egg!

Caught not onem but TWO Eevees at work tonight.

It's sad that there are people abusing Go to rob people.

That is why I don't go out at 2 AM walking/driving playing this game.

Today, I was ever so briefly a gym leader. It was a most satisfying feeling.

(Until my own team soundly beat my ass in minutes - from somewhere, must have been in the building - and replaced me. But those few minutes where I was lucky enough to walk up right as team yellow coincidentally beat team red unbeknownst to me so I could sneak myself in to the gym were glorious.)

Oh and I tried training against myself for fun with my second-strongest Pokemon for the first time aaand... I don't understand how battling works. Help please? AI-run Pokemon just got hit after hit after hit before I tapped a few times and got a few negligible punches in.

Finally, can you only heal with potions?

I was in Best Buy today and I finally realized how big Pokemon GO is.

Dad joined Team Instinct. He caught a shit ton of Pokémon while in Las Vegas
