Pokemon Sun and Moon Trailer Gives a Look at Version Exclusives

Just like every other main series Pokemon game, Pokemon Sun and Moon will feature specific monsters that are exclusive to each version of the game. So far we’ve seen a ton of new Pokemon that are being added to the series, but today we get a specific look at the ones that will be exclusive to each version.

With Pokemon Sun and Moon it seems that there was a heavier emphasis on making the version exclusives match up in some way. In the trailer, which you can check out below, you can see a couple of version exclusives that tie to their counterpart.

Sun’s Passimian and Moon’s Oranguru are both similar in design and inspiration, being based on a monkey and ape respectively. Then there is Rockruff, which will be in both versions of the game, but will evolve differently depending on which you are playing. Following the night and day theme, the Moon version is very werewolf-like in appearance.

The trailer continues to lavish us with new features beyond the version exclusives. These include being able to groom your Pokemon and exclusive Z-Moves for both Pikachu and Eevee, both fan favorite characters. Eevee’s is particularly awesome, utilizing the many Eeveelutions that make up the character.

Pokemon Sun and Moon hits Nintendo 3DS on November 18th.
