A new Sun and Moon video was revealed at E3 this morning, and then promptly uploaded to the official Pokemon channel on Youtube:
New Pokemon revealed include:
-Pikipek (1', 2.6 lbs), a Normal/Flying-type woodpecker, who gets Skill Link and and Keen Eye as its abilities.
-Yungoose (1'4", 13.2 lbs), a Normal-type, who gets the new ability Stakeout as well as Strong Jaw.
-Grubbin (1'4", 9.7lbs), a Bug-type, who gets the ability Swarm.
These all seem like the obvious candidates for our early-game bird, rodent and bug lines.
Magearna's signature attack is Fleur Cannon, and its ability Soul-Heart looks to raise Magearna's Special Attack when an ally Pokemon faints.
A new battle mode, Battle Royal, is a four-player fight where each trainer uses one Pokemon at a time, and it looks like a Pokemon can attack any of the other ones on the field.
Absent from this reveal are the two new Pokemon revealed in Corocoro earlier this week, Nekkoala (1'8", 20.3 lbs), a Normal-type koala, who gets a new ability granting it immunity to all status effects except Sleep; and Iwanko (1'4", 43.9 lbs), a Rock-type puppy, who gets Vital Spirit and Keen Eye.
With all of these new reveals, we currently know eleven Generation VII Pokemon. The others include cover legendaries Solgaleo and Lunala; legendary Magearna; and starters Rowlett, Litten and Popplio.
