We all got fairly excited earlier when we found out that the next Pokemon game is expected to be Pokemon Sun and Moon. The news came about when two European trademark filings were found. Now we’ve learnt via Reddit that Nintendo has now registered the domain pokemon-sunmoon.com which redirects to the official Pokemon website. No doubt the actual site will go live tomorrow after the Pokemon Direct.
Thanks, Pokecavern
rumor confirmed p much?
Not so p much.
Well, this brings down the excitement level for the direct tend-fold. I wish this had stayed a secret. Heck, there was only one day left. One day! Sigh.
Ugh.. this really spoiled my hype for tomorrow….
You know nothing about the games other than their logos. You don’t know new pokemon designs, the new region, anything other than a title. Seems a little silly to have something that minor.
something that minor spoil the entire announcement.* Willing to buy edit button.
You do have a point, but no matter how small a spoiler, it’s a spoiler because it spoils the affect it would have had if you didn’t know about it until you were ~supposed~ to know about it. I don’t know, regardless of the new pokemon designs, if any, or what the region is like, the title being revealed before the direct means that when they reveal the title during the direct tomorrow, I’ll be like, ‘yup, I already knew that, thanks for confirming, what’s next?’. It loses a bit of it’s edge. Now instead of me expecting the unexpected, like it would have been since everyone was screaming Pokemon Z everywhere, it loses the element of surprise.
^This guy gets it. Wish I could like your post twice.
It’s confirming the existence of entire new games. None of it is exciting anymore considering what we know to expect now.
well we don’t know what the new region name is but i guess we have to find out tomorrow.
you never know, they might have something else in store, but don’t get your hopes up…
Today’s the DAY!!
Gen 7 confirmed. I wish I could say I was spoiled but other then the names I knew Gen 7 was coming this year for awhile now lol. It wasn’t hard to see. I never thought Pokémon Z would happen cause it’s fucking pointless.
Hmm… Disappointment and Nintdendo? No surprise here…
-||What species is Nintdendo?||-
Definitely beats Rainbow. I wish the series would return to the Soulsilver/Heartgold roots and let your first party Pokemon walk behind you. Little things like that made that game Golden.
Don’t blame leakers. Blame Nintendo for not giving a crap about hiding things.
What? When Corrin and Bayonneta first came out, nobody saw that coming from a mile away.
You mean that ONE time out of all the others times? Pokemon X and Y, Smash Bros with Ryu and Roy, even Splatoon updates. If Nintendo was a bank, I wouldn’t even trust them with one cent.
well at least they wont get bankrupt because alot of people are trusting nintendo.
-||Or maybe blame the Pokemon Company since its their creation for begin with||-
I still think the names are stupid
Might as well call is pokemon Night and Day.
or we could call it DaySun and NightMoon
-||So Sun and Moon are stupid but not names like Red and Blue? Alright||-
As a person who has never played/will never play Pokemon, I am wondering why people are so worried about the name of the new games. Why does it matter if it is Z or Rainbow or all that? Does the name determine something?
The name doesn’t matter. The only thing that changes, is that tomorrow won’t be as hype as it should be. Without these clues there would be more speculation and the surprise of a new gen would be bigger.
If it’s Z that means is part of the sixth gen if not it’s most likely a new gen.
What do the generations mean then? Sorry but I really know very little about the games. Just curious.
A new Pokemon generation usually brings about 100 new pokemon, additions and adjustments to the core battle mechanics (all but 5th gen have done this), lots of new moves, held items (like equipment for pokemon with varying effects) and abilities and often secondary mechanics unique to that gen like how gen 3 allowed you to build and decorate secret bases.
With all these additions pokemon has really grown in complexity with the years, unfortunately that doesn’t matter that much in the single player since it’s so easy
Oh ok. I get it now. Much appreciated.
Also, what he said lol.
I wish these mechanics were more obvious in the games, then again it would be more difficult to cater to the casual crowd. I would really like some strategy especially when facing gym leaders.
Generation is a term used to differentiate one order from the next. I don’t think there’s much in the way of a particular theme when these games are made, but the idea of the color or code name (blue/red, sun/moon) is just to get people to go with one they feel suits them.
Even more info. Thank you.
pokemonsonnemond.de redirects to the official Pokemon page too. Sonne is german for sun and mond is german for moon.

I wonder how people find out about these domains/trademarks. Shouldn’t something like this be hidden from public view or something?
On the contrary, they need to be accessible to the general public so you can see what’s trademarked/patented and what’s not in the case you want trademark something of your own.
well maybe the Pokemon franchise will be even better because Pokemon Sun and Moon might get another 3D element develop from Pokemon X & Y yeah and i hope this new generation might be able to get amiibo support in the future or maybe on the NX console if nintendo get a chance to give us details about it.
Welp, ANOTHER hyper ruined. Thanks internet. -_-
Seriously, why is this website that leaks stuff up? You’d think it’d be taken down by now for spilling confidential company info.
Clearly a photo-shopped Little Mac
Those were the days.
Ahh “sigh” I shouldn’t have come here. I’m not even a big fan of Pokemon but I was hyped to see what they were gonna anounce..
I can’t wait for this!!!!!!! *falls off chair*
All these people losing hype over solely the titles? I’m even MORE hyped with it possibly being a Gen 7 game! Loads
more pokemon, new mechanics and a new region, all completely up in the air as to what that could result in? I’m get more stoked the more I think about it!
Yeah, I had zero hype before this and now I’m counting the hours.
Yeah was kinda spoiled now, yeah the names aren’t really the best, but this is what’s important:
OH MY LARD MORE POKEMON VIDIYA GAEEEEEMMMMMZZZZ!!1!!11!
I literally have not played a Pokemon game since Red, (Yes, I can assure you, that says Red,) so this has me pretty hyped up with my birthday coming next month. As long as it’s not FUCKING PAY TO PLAY FUCKING PICROSS.
OMG! You mean they’re not going to be named after colors or stones? Wow, Nintendo and the Pokémon Company must not be feeling well.
Okay…….
