Hey trainers, there's been a lot of news in the Pokeworld recently!
SUN AND MOON
The big one. Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon release this Friday November 18th worldwide... except in Europe, where it will release on November 23rd for some reason. Set in the Alola islands, SuMo will feature a whole bunch of new pokemon, new special "Z" moves, an end to the HM curse, and also "alola forms" of some beloved first-gen 'mons.

20th ANNIVERSARY LEGENDARIES

POKEMON GO
It's getting cold out there, but some people are still playing Pokemon Go! Yes, really! Newest update: DITTO IS IN THE GAME. It's apparently disguised as pidgey, rattata, or zubat, and only reveals itself if you catch it.
SE++ LEAGUE?
We may be setting up a SE++ league? Some discussion about this was floated about in the previous thread. TBA after everyone has had a chance to go through SuMo, and perhaps when the Pokemon Bank becomes compatible with it in January. Feel free to pitch the mechanics or your ideal gym setup!
Anyway, Pokemon talk goes here. As a courtesy, please spoiler leak talk up until the games' release.
Posts
Also in drafting the first post I JUST realized it was "alola" and not "aloha" as I've been saying ever since the initial announcement.

they're just so kinda bland right now. What if, you could make Meganium, bigger, happier, and goofier?
It would be, astounding.
Hydreigon
Best dragon

Neither of these Pokemon are Haxorus, who is actually the best.
I guess I don't get those... pieces of... something, that I don't know what they do
1/100th of a cent.
Does Haxorus at first glance look extremely dark and badass and evil
Then on second glance appear to be a dragon who has made a sock puppet version of himself for each hand
No?

Guess I'm getting Sun.

I also saw a huge rainbow this morning. I'm not sure if it's possible for me to be any happier
This is compelling.

I never went back and beat the E4 for real in Black either, now that I think about it.
Salamence is great.
It learns Fly when it evolves.
Sun is officially the Turtle edition, which makes it clearly the best edition.
