It says that for Z-Moves in general or just for Gigavolt Havoc? I'm assuming the former, but maybe the latter?

What in the Queen's English am I even looking at?

I guess you could say they got...Trumped.
Not sure if it's worth noting, but that looks an awful lot like rock smash on Crabrawler and Pikipek. still it became a TM in Kalos IIRC so it's probably not too important
On Pikipek it is Rock Smash. Didn't double check, but if Crabrawler had the same animation then it has it too (not surprising there really)
A friend of mine keeps mentioning this: Solgaleo looks like Mugen Liger from Zoids.
It could be from an in-game trade, like they do with Gym Leaders in previous games.
Also after playing the demo a bit (will talk about it in the other thread, don't worry) I found one removed major feature which will heavily impact your enjoyment of the game:
You can no longer sit down. 7.8, too much walking.
It's kinda cute. "Coochie coochie coo...YEEOUCH!!!"
So...apparently the newest japanese trading card game pack accidentally leaked this mon.
What do you guys think about it?
Spines everywhere! But seriously, I am getting a Mawile vibe from this little one. And I'm sure those spines are indeed sharp and not very huggable.
Don't get me to start wish listing typings for this little beastie. Though I'm honestly thinking a primary Water or Grass typing, with maybe a Fairy typing as a wild card. Then again, we would have never guessed that Solgaleo shared the same typing as Metagross. Psychic? Maybe, but with a Fire typing.
I hope that this is a new Mawile, complete with a good defensive or offensive typing, but this time with decent stats, as opposed to needing a ridiculous Mega Evolution just to be relevant!

So here's a nice little read. Some points that I found interesting:
So here's a nice little read. Some points that I found interesting:
- Z-Moves were created in mind to make every pokemon more viable, especially those who were not used often.
- Alolan Forms are all gen 1 since they are the most recognizable by long-term fans
- Pokemon creation process has changed tremendously with the move from sprites to 3D.
- No one knows what an Ultra Beast really is, and discovering what they are is extremely vital to the story and setting.
- Mega Evolutions and Z moves seem to work separately. its implied you can use both in the same battle.
- Developers "put thier all" into this game, so there's a ton of content to explore, unlike X & Y
- There are gong to be many surprises from each generation to celebrate the 20th anniversary.
Mega Rayquaza using Flying Z Crystal with Dragon Ascent will just be amazing.
Mega Rayquaza in itself is amazing. That would be so amazing it might get Ray banned from AG.
Yeah, but then what would we put him in? Battle Here At Your Own Risk?
Too bad that's not how that's going to turn out because you can just slap a Z-Move on something already good and make it even better instead of using something that sucks.
When you give eveything the same new option, people are just going to stick to what already works.
If Z moves are a flat increase in power like Gigavolt Havoc, something with high base powers and the ability to already oneshot things as of now probably won't make good use of it
I'm looking at you, mega Ray
Also how would this even work, given that the button to mega evolve and z attack are probably in the same slot? I guess you mega first, then z move on the turn after?

Both buttons shrinking so that they would be shown in the same screen?
I don't think so. Remember something very important: Z moves are going to take up an item slot. There's going to be a lot of pokemon very uncomfortable making such a sacrifice. I think more niche pokemon who can afford to use a Z move and still do a job well will be sought out heavily, but we'll wait and see.
Rayquazaite? Maybe? No?
Thank the lord this thread is safe from spoilers and leaks from the demo; I've decided to avoid everything past the most recent CoroCoro so I can play the game more or less blind, the way I did when I was a lot younger. This next month is going to be tough...
With the new trailers and the demo, I'm really hyped for SM to come out next month. These games look amazing.
