How many Pokemon are in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon?

807 total, five more than Sun and Moon. The new additions are Ultra Beasts: Poipole, Naganadel, Stakataka, Blacephalon, and Zeraora. The Alola dex is slightly expanded with more encounter options early.

How is USUM different from Sun and Moon?

The story diverges around the midpoint. Necrozma absorbs the box legendary to become Ultra Necrozma, one of the hardest boss fights in any Pokemon game. Ultra Warp Ride lets you catch legendaries from every past generation. New Ultra Beasts, more early encounters, and the Mantine Surf minigame are added.

How hard is Ultra Necrozma?

Ultra Necrozma has 167 Sp. Atk, 97 Speed, and gets a stat-boosting aura on top of that. It will sweep most teams. Common strategies: Zoroark's Illusion to bait a Fighting-type move, Toxic stalling, or a Focus Sash Pokemon with a super effective hit. It's level 60 and the biggest difficulty spike in the series.

What is Ultra Warp Ride?

A minigame where you fly through Ultra Space on Solgaleo or Lunala. Different colored wormholes lead to different Pokemon. Legendary Pokemon from past generations (Mewtwo, Ho-Oh, Groudon, etc.) appear in the furthest wormholes. It's the main way to catch non-Alolan legendaries without transferring from older games.

What generation is Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon?

Still Gen 7, 3DS, 2017. USUM is the enhanced take on Alola. Same Trial system, but the story diverges around the midpoint into Ultra Space content. More Pokemon available earlier, new Ultra Beasts, and a harder endgame stretch.

What is the best starter in USUM?

Same three starters as Sun and Moon. Litten 's Incineroar is still the most practical for the story since Intimidate neuters Totem Pokemon. But team building matters more in USUM because Ultra Necrozma demands a specific answer on your squad.

How the USUM Pokedex expanded from Sun & Moon

USUM boosts the Alola dex from 302 to 403 Pokemon. Over 100 species are available that weren't in the originals.

Ultra Wormhole travel is the standout postgame feature. Ride Solgaleo or Lunala through wormholes and you can encounter every non-event legendary from past generations. The farther you travel, the rarer the finds. Island Scan (QR codes) adds more variety on a weekly rotation. With Pokemon Bank, the full 807 is reachable.
