We were given a taste of Bruxish, Charjabug, Cutiefly, Drampa, Tapu Koko, Togedemaru and Vikavolt yesterday. Today, Rockruff, and Komala bios have been announced.

Below you will find a bio and image for each Pokemon along with other information provided by The Pokemon Company.

pokemon_sun_an_moon_tapu Koko

Tapu Koko - Electric/Fairy

Tapu Koko is the guardian deity of Melemele Island, one of the islands of the Alola region. Tapu Koko’s Ability is Electric Surge, an Ability which has never been seen before. The Electric Surge Ability fills the field around the Pokémon’s feet with electricity when it appears, raising the power of any Electric-type moves for Pokémon on the ground and preventing any Pokémon from falling asleep.

Charjabug - Bug/Electric

Charjabug is the first Evolution of Grubbin, a new Alola region Pokémon revealed last month. Charjabug’s Battery Ability allows it to raise the power of allies’ special moves.

Vikavolt - Bug/Electric

Vikavolt, the Evolution of Charjabug, is like a fortress that zooms through the forest, using its huge jaws to control a beam of electricity which it can fire from its mouth.

pokemon_sun_an_moon_drampa

Drampa - Normal/Dragon

Drampa are dragons that live alone in the mountains 10,000 feet above sea level. With Drampa’s Berserk Ability, this Pokémon’s Special Attack stat will go up by one when its HP drops below half.

pokemon_sun_and_moon_bruxish

Bruxish - Water/Psychic

Bruxish emits a strong psychic power from the protuberance on its head while grinding its teeth loudly. Some Bruxish have the new Dazzling Ability that prevents opponents from using priority moves that normally strike first.

pokemon_sun_an_moon_cutiefly

Cutiefly - Bug/Fairy

Cutiefly can detect the auras of living things, including people, Pokémon, and plants. They seek out flowers by the color and brightness of their auras, and then they gather the nectar and pollen.

pokemon_sun_an_moon_togedemaru

Togedemaru - Electric/Steel

Togedemaru is the Roly-Poly Pokémon that gathers electricity and stores it. The long needle that grows from the back of its head works as a lightning rod to attract electricity.

pokemon_sun_an_moon_rockruff

Rockruff - Rock

Rockruff has an excellent sense of smell, and once it has smelled an odor, it doesn’t forget. There are tales of these Pokémon getting separated from their Trainers, then using the faintest traces of their scent to track them for days until they are reunited.

pokemon_sun_an_moon_komala

Komala - Normal

No one has ever seen a Komala awake. It eats, travels, and even battles while sound asleep. According to ancient people, its saliva can be used as medicine for the sick or sleepless. Komala has the Comatose Ability that keeps it perpetually in a drowsing state, preventing it from getting any other status conditions.

pokemon_sun_and_moon_zygarde Core Cell

New forms of the Legendary Pokemon Zygarde will also appear in Pokemon Sun and Moon. Zygarde is made up of a multitude of cell-like components, as seen above, and depending on how many of them it has gathered together, its appearance changes. We were given a look at the Pokemon in action back in mid-June.

Nintendo also provided a look a Zygarde during its Tree House Live event at E3 2016.

pokemon_sun_and_moon_zygarde 50 percent

Zygarde 50% Forme - Dragon/Ground

Zygarde believes it has a duty to protect the ecosystem, and it monitors the Pokémon ecosystem to ensure that the ecosystem is not disrupted. While the power it possesses is overwhelming, this form contains only 50% of Zygarde’s cells. A Zygarde 10% or Zygarde 50% with the Power Construct Ability will be able to change into its Complete Forme during battle if its HP drops below half.

pokemon_sun_and_moon_zygarde 10 percent

Zygarde 10% Forme - Dragon/Ground

When an emergency occurs, this form can take action separately from Zygarde 50% Forme, which comprises its main body. Thousand Arrows is a special move that only Zygarde can learn. It’s a Ground-type move that can also do damage to Flying types and to Pokémon with the Levitate Ability. After being hit by this move, Flying types and Pokémon with the Levitate Ability will continue to take damage from other Ground-type moves used in subsequent turns. Thousand Waves is also a move that only Zygarde can learn. This move makes it impossible for an opponent to flee or be swapped out of battle.

pokemon_sun_and_moon_zygarde 100 percent

Zygarde Complete Forme - Dragon/Ground

Zygarde’s completed form is specialized for battle, enabling Zygarde to fight with its full power and fulfill its duty of protecting the Pokémon ecosystem. Core Enforcer is a move that only Zygarde can learn, and it can erase the Abilities of any opponents that have already used a move on the same turn that it’s used.

Pokemon Sun and Moon releases on November 18 in North America and November 23 in Europe.
