Features

New forms

Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon are the first games to feature the Partner Cap Pikachu, the Dusk Form Lycanroc, and Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings Necrozma.

New Z-Moves

Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon feature new Z-Moves for certain Pokémon, such as Clangorous Soulblaze for Kommo-o and Splintered Stormshards for Lycanroc. The player receives a Z-Power Ring, which enables them to use more varieties of Z-Moves than the Z-Ring.

Rotom Pokédex

Main article: Roto Loto

In addition to expanded dialogue options, the Rotom Pokédex grows closer to the player over the course of their journey, eventually picking a nickname for its owner.

The Rotom Pokédex will now also give the player the chance to obtain boosting items similar to O-Powers through the Roto Loto.

Alola Photo Club

Main article: Alola Photo Club

Found in Hau'oli City and Konikoni City, the Alola Photo Club allows players to take photos with the Pokémon in their party. These photos can then be edited with stickers, posted to the Pokémon Global Link, or saved to the 3DS's SD card.

The player also has the option of doing an impromptu photo shoot after a Pokémon in their party evolves.

Mantine Surf

Mantine Surf is a new Poké Ride and minigame accessible from Big Wave Beach on Melemele Island, Heahea Beach on Akala Island, Ula'ula Beach (formerly Secluded Shore) on Ula'ula Island, and Poni Beach on Poni Island. The minigame, in addition to transporting players to other islands, allows them to earn Battle Points by executing tricks off the ocean waves and earning points.

Ultra Warp Ride

Main article: Ultra Warp Ride

Another minigame, Ultra Warp Ride, allows the player to traverse Ultra Space on the back of a Solgaleo or Lunala, allowing them to visit the homeworlds of Ultra Beasts and find rare, even Legendary Pokémon.. By absorbing energy, they can travel more light-years through space, increasing their chance of finding rarer, even Shiny Pokémon.

Totem Stickers

Main article: Totem Sticker

In the place of Zygarde Cells and Cores, the player can collect Totem Stickers scattered throughout the four islands of Alola by its captains. Upon hitting certain milestones, the player can receive Pokémon the size of Totem Pokémon from Samson Oak at Heahea Beach. These Pokémon, with the exception of Mimikyu, vary by game.
