So, some CoroCoro leaks are floating around, revealing more Ultra-Beasts, evolutions of Rockruff, and the one thing everyone is looking forward to... The Alola arc of the anime!
Pics from Serebii.net.
So first up, 2 Ultra-Beasts that are given the designation UB-02: UB-02 Beauty, and UB-02 Expansion. UB-01 also has a name, but it's currently a mystery but will hold a deep meaning.
Apparently, UB-02 Beauty is facing off Tapu Koko is Pokemon Moon, while in Pokemon Sun it's UB-02 Expansion.
Next up, Rockruff has a branch evolution depending on the time of day.
If bathed in the sunlight, Rockruff evolves into Lugarugan Midday Form, and knows the new move AccelRock.
If bathed in the moonlight, Rockruff evolves into Lugarugan Midnight Form, and knows the move Counter.
The leaks also mentioned that in the next issue of CoroCoro, the true strength of Type: Null will be revealed. There's also something relating to Pokemon GO... Are the Alolan Forms related to it?
The Alola arc of the anime has Ash and Pikachu attending school in Alola, and his goal is to graduate. He will receive a Z-Ring, and meet up with Tapu Koko. The Alola arc will air in November this year.
