More version-exclusive Pokemon are coming to Pokemon Sun and Moon! Rockruff’s version-exclusive evolutions are also showcased in the trailer, with Lycanroc’s Midday form being exclusive to Sun and its Midnight form being exclusive to Moon. The midnight form, meanwhile, gathers moonlight energy.

Also announced were the inclusion of lots more trainer fashion customization in Pokemon Sun and Moon, a new in-game Pokemon grooming system called “Pokemon refresh”, and exclusive Z-moves for Pikachu and Eevee called “Catastropika” and “Extreme Evoboost”, respectively. “The stronger an opponent is, the more excited Lycanroc Midnight Form becomes, its eyes glowing with the thrill of battle”, reads a line from its official description. This highly powerful move raises Eevee’s Attack, Defense, Sp. Atk, Sp. Def and Speed by 2. This is an unique approach towards the game altogether making it not just an action theme game but also the one with more adventureland simulation why you get to be the owner and protective of your little fictional animals. The feature is making its return and allows players to change their Trainer’s clothing, hairstyle and eye color and clothing can even be dyed. The biggest in game feature that has been disclosed so far is the fact that you will be able to care for your pokemons after the battle is over.

For those not in the know, Pokemon Bank is a utility app Nintendo created for the 3DS that allows players to easily store and transfer Pokemon between generation six games. The game is set to be released on North America on November 18.
