With just a month before the new "Pokemon Sun and Moon" game gets released, its developers are making sure that the game receives even more hype by showing fans a new teaser video. The video reveals the evolved forms of the previously revealed Pokemon and a new Alolan form for Grimer and Muk.

According to Game Rant, the video shows the evolved form of the Pokemon known as Type: Null. This Pokemon was the first one to be created without a type, but Null, upon evolving to Silvally, will become a creature of multiple types.

By default, the evolved Pokemon is Normal-type, but upon giving it items to hold, players will be able to transform it into a type the player chooses. It has a unique move "Multi-attack" which will change in type depending on it.

Next is the evolved forms of Jangmo-o, which are the Dragon/Fighting types Hakamo-o and Kommo-o. The last evolution will have a unique move called "Clanging Scales" which basically makes it attack with a great clamor, thus lowering its opponents' defense as a result.

Also, other evolved forms showcased in the trailer include Bounsweet's evolution, Steenee and Tsareena, while Cutiefly then evolves to Ribombee.

Meanwhile, the Digital Spy reports that the Alolan form of Grimer and Muk seems to be much more colorful than its original. After all, it was stated that the Pokemon was constantly just eating whatever food they can find and thus became chemically changed. As of now, it has become a Poison/Dark type Pokemon. 

The trailer is then concluded by showcasing more of the Alolan trainers as well, which includes Olivia, the Kahuna of the Akala Island, and Illima, who specializes in Normal Type Pokemon who is also a Trial Captain.

"Pokemon Sun and Moon" will be released on Friday, Nov. 18 for the Nintendo 3DS.
