Also didn't highlight Extremespeed Zigazagoon (you had to have a decade-old special pokemon from a limited released Gamecube game in the U.S. to get one) and High Horsepower Rapidash, something that should have happened from the get-go.

finally, Rapidash can have four decent attacking moves and no coverage for its weaknesses, instead of three decent attacking moves and no coverage for its weaknesses

Not gonna lie, my hype levels are dropping considerably now that I know they added no Alolan forms and wasted the potential of one of the coolest new features in Sun & Moon

The new Ultra Beasts look cool at least

Rock's a weakness. What else could it get to cover weaknesses, Wild Charge? Draco Meteor?

Oh, that's right. It's somewhat better against Rock now. That's fairly nice.

Does anybody know what the name Zeraora stands for?

Naganadel (the new Poison/Dragon) is apparently naga (snake) + nadel (needle)

Reading up on the text dump, it looks like there is a Surf Pikachu in this.

Looks like it's gotten through beating all of the records in Mantine Surf minigame.

Zeraora is pretty brutal:

The Pokédex posted:

It electrifies its claws and tears its opponents apart with them. Even if they dodge its attack, they’ll be electrocuted by the flying sparks.
It approaches its enemies at the speed of lightning, then tears them limb from limb with its sharp claws.

The new dex has been dumped. Pretty huge expansion overall with a bunch of older pokemon added in. I think its about 100 new ones over the old dex.

Pokedex Update:

I'm calling it done on Moon. I've got 3 more that I can theoretically get, all 3 are item based and it'll just be easier to get the free random item during the Sun play through for 2 of them.

The one I'm having issue with is the item for Sneasel.

Other than that I just need the 1 starter evolution chain and the sun exclusives.

Feels good man.

Really, you're having issues with the item that only appears as a 5% held item on a 5% encounter :allears:

(seriously, Razor Claw location is low-key one of the most important things that I'm hoping they change in USUM even if it's not a huge deal once you have a Weavile for the 'dex)

(best thing to do is chain them because the final form has a 50% chance to hold one and will start showing up in chains eventually, if you hate yourself enough to do it)

Yeah, I am all up on Bulbepedia, I just haven't put forth the effort for this one yet. It will likely be the last thing I do to complete Sun and Moon.
