PKMN USUM - Entering the final stretch!

It won't be long now. Just 3 weeks, and Pokémon Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon will release globally. Everyone excited?

Okay! Because I've got two things that came up today.

Let's start with the rumor. Yeah, a rumor came up from a Chinese fan following the reveal of Team Rocket.

- Alolan Oddish, Alolan Gloom, and Alolan Vileplume will be Poison/Fairy-type.
- Alolan Parasect will be Bug/Ghost-type.

...I have my doubts about this since Parasect is already part of the Alolan Dex in Sun/Moon. In its usual form.

Okay, enough of that! Let's move on to more official things. The main site uploaded a bunch of screenshots, which show quite a few things.

- Some Bewear performing at Hau'oli Mall's show stage.
- Team Skull ambushing an Alolan Vulpix.
- Confirmation of more returning Pokémon, new additions to the Alolan Dex: Furfrou, Mime Jr., Buneary, Hawlucha, and Inkay.
- A use for the Strange Souvenir is hinted at...
- Festival Plaza, Poké Pelago, and Global Link (with the new Championship Battle option, which follows World Championship rules) are returning.


One week to a new trailer, and three weeks to release...

Brace yourselves, everyone. We're in the final stretch.
