Features
Rotom Pokédex
The player’s Pokédex is a special model that can be inhabited by a Rotom, called the Rotom Pokédex. Through the Pokédex, Rotom can speak human languages. The Pokédex also acts as a real-time map on the bottom screen on the player’s Nintendo 3DS, showing the player’s location, places of interest, and recommended destinations based on conversations made with NPCs.
QR Scanner
Players can scan QR codes corresponding to each Pokémon in the Pokédex, allowing them to register them as Pokémon they have seen. The QR scanner can also be used to receive event Pokémon, such as Magearna.
New forms
Pokémon Sun and Moon will be the first core series games where players can use Zygarde’s 10% and Complete Formes, as well as Greninja’s Ash-Greninja form. Zygarde’s other forms, Zygarde Cell and Core, will also make non-playable appearances.

Alola Forms
Some Pokémon species have uniquely adapted to the microclimates of the Alola region, becoming what is known as a regional variant of their species. These variant species take on different forms from those of their species in other regions, including a different appearance, Abilities, and more. An Alolan variant of a species is known as its Alola Form.

Battle Royal
The Battle Royal is a new battle format where four players enter into a free-for-all battle, with any player able to attack (or aid) another. The battle ends when all of one player’s Pokémon faint, with the winner being the player who has the highest combined number of knockouts and number of remaining Pokémon.

Z-Moves
Z-Moves are a new type of move in which the Trainer and Pokémon’s wishes combine to release their full power. Z-Moves are moves of great power, but can only be used once per battle.
In order to use a Z-Move, a Trainer needs two items: a Z-Ring and a Z-Crystal. A Z-Ring is a band worn on a Trainer’s arm. A Z-Crystal must be set into the Z-Ring, and if a Pokémon holds a Z-Crystal of the same type, they will resonate with each other. If the Pokémon then knows a move corresponding to the Z-Crystal’s type, it will be able to use a Z-Move. All Pokémon can use Z-Moves, and there are Z-Moves for each of the 18 types. There are also Z-Moves that can only be used by specific Pokémon.
When used in battle, a Z-Move takes over the entire screen in a short, cinematic display.

Island challenge
The island challenge is a new mechanic introduced in Pokémon Sun and Moon. It is a rite in which players travel through the four islands of Alola with the goal of becoming the strongest Trainer, known as the island challenge champion. In order to complete the island challenge, players must overcome each island’s unique trials which may include, but are not limited to, finding items, completing tests of knowledge, and battling with Pokémon.
At the end of each island’s trial, the player will have to battle a Totem Pokémon. A Totem Pokémon is much larger than its species normally is and has a special aura that appears to aid it in battle, such as by raising its Defense. Totem Pokémon are battled in SOS Battles, where they summon ally Pokémon to participate alongside them.
The final trial on each island is a Pokémon battle with the Island Kahuna known as the grand trial. Successfully clearing the grand trial gives the player the right to move on to the next island in their challenge, conveying official recognition that the player has cleared all of the island’s trials.
Each trial has a Trial Captain who provides guidance to trial-goers. All of the Captains are Trainers who undertook trials in their own island challenge a few years earlier.
