How many Pokemon are in Sun and Moon?

802 total. The Alola Pokedex is split into four island-specific dexes covering around 300 Pokemon available during the story. The rest require trading or transferring from other games via Pokemon Bank.

Z-Moves are powered-up attacks you can use once per battle. A Pokemon needs to hold a Z-Crystal matching its type (or a species-specific crystal). Offensive Z-Moves deal massive damage, and support Z-Moves boost stats or apply unique effects. Every type has a Z-Crystal, so any Pokemon can use one.

What is the best starter in Sun and Moon?

Litten evolves into Incineroar (Fire/Dark) with Intimidate, which is great for the Totem fights. Rowlet 's Decidueye (Grass/Ghost) is unique but a bit slow. Popplio 's Primarina (Water/Fairy) has the best typing of the three. All are viable.

What are Alolan forms?

Alolan forms are regional variants of Gen 1 Pokemon that adapted to the Alola region. Alolan Ninetales is Ice/Fairy instead of Fire. Alolan Marowak is Fire/Ghost instead of Ground. They have different types, stats, abilities, and movepools. Only Kanto Pokemon got Alolan forms.

What generation is Sun and Moon?

Gen 7. Nintendo 3DS, 2016. Sun and Moon ditched the gym formula for Island Trials and Totem Pokemon. Z-Moves and Alolan forms debuted here. The Alola region is based on Hawaii, and the pacing is story-heavy compared to older entries.

What are Island Trials?

Island Trials replace traditional gyms. Each trial is a challenge (finding items, answering questions, battling through an area) ending in a fight against a Totem Pokemon, a buffed wild Pokemon with stat boosts and ally support. After clearing all trials on an island, you battle the island's Kahuna. Four islands, seven trials.

Pokemon Sun & Moon Pokedex - All Alola Pokemon

Sun and Moon's Alola Pokedex replaces gyms with Island Trials and Totem Pokemon. Z-Moves give every Pokemon one big nuke per battle. Alolan forms turn Gen 1 classics like Ninetales (now Ice/Fairy) into new typings entirely. No Mega Stones until postgame. Use the type filter to browse Alolan forms and new Gen 7 species side by side.

How to access additional Pokemon in Sun & Moon

Alola's dex spans 302 Pokemon across four island sub-dexes (Melemele, Akala, Ula'ula, Poni). SOS battles are the big new tool: when a wild Pokemon calls for help, the ally can be a species that doesn't show up through normal encounters, sometimes carrying its Hidden Ability.

Alolan forms give Kanto classics completely different typings. Ninetales becomes Ice/Fairy. Marowak goes Fire/Ghost. These only exist in Alola. After the story, Looker's Ultra Beast questline adds exclusive catches. Transfers from older games round out the full 802.
