Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon
This Friday (September 22nd), pre-orders for Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon will open in Japan. To prepare for this, stores have already begun receiving promotional materials, such as the poster below.
At first glance, it doesn’t seem to show anything really new, but if you take a closer look, you immediately notice the figures in the shadows (at the top). We don’t really know who they belong to, but we probably don’t have much longer to wait before finding out…
Here’s the poster:

Pokémon Sun and Moon – Cap Pikachu distribution
Today, the first part of the Cap Pikachu distribution went live. It allows you to get Ash’s Pikachu (Original Cap), using the following Serial Code: PIKACHU20 (live until September 25th). But before you rush to redeem that code, you should keep in mind the code can only be used once per game, which means you can only get one of the 6 Cap Pikachu.
You can find more details about this distribution in this post!
