A leak on the darker parts of the web forces the Pokémon Company to jump the gun.
The newest Pokemon Sun and Moon trailer has released early following the content leaking ahead of time.
A new Pokémon and a new Alola form have been announced: the new Pokémon is Lorelull, a mushroom-styled Pokémon with Grass/Fairy typing and Illuminate or Effect Spore abilites. The new Alola form is Alola Raichu, who is an Electric/Psychic type with the ability Surge Surfer which doubles his speed while Electric Terrain - as set by one of the island legends - is active.
Some of the Pokemon revealed in CoroCoro Magazine this week received localized names: Yowashi, the Water type fish, will be known as Wishiwashi, and Namakobushi's English name will be Pyukumuku. Pyukumuku is a Water type whose ability Innards Out causes damage to an opponent when it faints similar to Aftermath. Alola Meowth was revealed as keeping regular Meowth's abilities, while the previously announced Alola Marowak will swap Rock Head for Cursed Body.
Team Skull was confirmed with the leader being known as Guzma and the female admin "big sister" of the team Plumeria.
