'Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon' dataminers discover names of new Pokemon
The release of "Pokemon Ultra Sun" and "Ultra Moon" is only a week away, and some individuals have already gotten advanced copies of the game. Dataminers have scoured the games' files and uncovered new Pokemon names as well as one latest Pokemon that Nintendo has not introduced yet.
The dataminers on the title's Reddit community has revealed the names of the new Ultra Beasts that Nintendo introduced through the games' trailers, where the monsters were only referred to using their code names.
UB Adhesive, which is one of the most adorable Ultra Beasts to be introduced in the game, is named Poipole. It has also been discovered that Poipole has an evolution by the name of Naganadel. This is a very unique characteristic for an Ultra Beast, as all the previously introduced ones did not have any evolution.
Dataminers also found that Poipole will only be obtainable through the Mystery Gift function.
The names of the other two Ultra Beasts were also found out in the leak. UB Assembly, which resembles a brick tower with multiple eyes, is called Stakataka. Its counterpart, the clown-looking monster with a colorful ball as a head, is called Blacephalon.
The leakers also discovered data about a never-before-seen Pokemon called Zeraora. It is speculated that it would be Nintendo's mythical giveaway for 2018. Based on its Pokedex data, the new Pokemon is an electric-type that focuses on speed.
"Ultra Sun" and "Ultra Moon" players can expect Zeraora to be obtainable via the Mystery Gift function, and will likely also be available through retailers like Game Stop.
Lastly, the datamined game files revealed that the legendary Pokemon Necrozma, which is set to be the central figure of the new versions' narrative, will also have another form. While the Pokemon was previously revealed to be getting a Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings form, it will also be able to transform into Ultra Necrozma, which will most likely be the most powerful Pokemon in the game.
