I am sorry that this post is so late but I wanted to report on the news after some official information was confirmed. Late last night (early in the morning in Japan) there was some news revealed for Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. Thankfully, the official site put out the information afterwards in English. You can read the official site news here if you wish before reading further.
Here it is: a new Lycanroc form has been revealed! We already have Midday and Midnight forms and now we have the Dusk form. It is basically Midday form in bright orange with green eyes and it has the white fur of the Midnight form on its back. They even showed that it will be in the anime too. As far as the design goes, I like it more than Midnight form but less than Midday form.
Overall, I was considerably disappointed in the reveal. I love the new Pokémon, but I was expecting so much more after the long period of no news since the actual game reveal trailers. Anyway, I will take what I can get. This reveal actually leaves more questions than answers. How do you evolve Rockruff to get this Pokémon? The official site that I linked above doesn't specify. I'll bet that it will require evolving at a specific time (dusk, obviously) in the game. This brings up a new thought: the first two forms were game exclusive. Will this form also be game exclusive? Does that mean we will also get a Dawn form for the other game? That would be great. Or.... is that the only evolution that Rockruff can have in the new games? The official page says both games so it's anybody's guess. This brings us to my last thought: when Rockruff was revealed, it was teased that it had a mysterious connection to the starters. That was never really explained. What if the starters also have alternate evolutions? Now this has tons of potential. I hope that is the case but for now its all just hopeful speculation.
Well, that's all I have for now. I hope you enjoyed this post and will Follow me so you don't miss out on further posts. Leave a comment below telling me what you think of this news. Have a great weekend and as always, keep on gaming!!
