Pokémon Sun (Japanese: ポケットモンスターサン Pocket Monsters Sun) and Pokémon Moon (Japanese: ポケットモンスタームーン Pocket Monsters Moon) are the primary paired versions of Generation VII. The games will be released on the Nintendo 3DS.

The games were announced worldwide on the 20th Anniversary of the release of Pokémon Red and Green, February 27, 2016, at 12 am JST by Tsunekazu Ishihara through Nintendo Direct. The paired versions will be released worldwide on November 18, 2016, except in Europe where they will be released on November 23, 2016. All copies of the game are playable in nine languages: Japanese, English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Korean, and Simplified and Traditional Chinese.

Features

Rotom Pokédex

The player's Pokédex is a special model that can be inhabited by a Rotom, called the Rotom Pokédex. Through the Pokédex, Rotom can speak human languages. The Pokédex also acts as a real-time map on the bottom screen on the player's Nintendo 3DS, showing the player's location, places of interest, and recommended destinations based on conversations made with NPCs.

QR Scanner

Players can scan QR codes corresponding to each Pokémon in the Pokédex, allowing them to register them as Pokémon they have seen. The QR scanner can also be used to receive event Pokémon, such as Magearna.

New forms

Pokémon Sun and Moon will be the first core series games where players can use Zygarde's 10% and Complete Formes.

Battle Royal

The Battle Royal is a new battle format introduced in Pokémon Sun and Moon. In this mode, four players enter into a free-for-all battle. The battle ends when all of one player's Pokémon faint, with the winner being the player who has the highest combined number of knockouts and number of remaining Pokémon.

Compatibility

The games will be compatible with Pokémon Bank. In addition to regular storage, Pokémon Sun and Moon can receive Pokémon from both the Virtual Console releases of the Generation I games and the Generation VI games.
