A new Pokemon Sun and Moon trailer has been released by Nintendo and The Pokemon Company, revealing several new critters that players will be encountering, capturing and battling with later this year when both versions release for the 3DS.
The video – which is currently only available in Japanese – follows the leak of several images that outed the new Pokemon early. Presumably, this is the news that was originally supposed to be released on July 1, so you can probably expect an English version of the same gameplay footage be released either later today or tomorrow.
While there’s currently no official English names for the seven new Pocket Monsters revealed in the trailer, encyclopaedic Pokemon site Serebii.net has provided its own translation of each, as well as provided their elemental types.
See below for the full list:
Charjabug
Bug/Electric-type
Vikavolt
Bug/Electric-type
Drampa
Normal/Dragon-type
Bruxish
Water/Psychic-type
Cutiefly
Bug/Fairy-type
Togedemaru
Electric/Steel-type
Tapu Koko
Electric/Fairy-type
Another teaser for the ultimate form of Pokemon X&Y mythical beast Zygarde was shown at the climax of the video – which seems to suggest that he will undergo the transformation mid-battle when his health reaches a critically low level.
Pokemon Sun and Moon release November 18 for 3DS.
