GAME only, I'm afraid.

So what? I should buy Sun on the assumption that this may not be true? That seems awfully short-sighted, doesn't it? You know what? Don't respond. I don't care anymore. This whole matter is making me very annoyed and upset and I don't need this. Even if it's not the case, I still despise everything TPC is doing with the franchise these days. But in the end, it doesn't matter one bit. I know the moment an event comes along for one of the new mythical Pokemon, I'll cave. Because I'm too weak to allow more than 10 years of Pokemon collecting go down the swanny. So fine, I'll buy it, despite Europe getting the shaft for the third time in a row, despite the blatant dismissal of over 500 Pokemon that you'd have to be deluded to think that don't compare to those boring 90's designs and despite the very likely situation that I'll regret it. This game better bloody knock it out of the park, I mean it, it better be B/W levels of good! Because at this point, if I get another X/Y or another embarrassing lack of stuff to do like OR/AS, I'm gonna want some explanations. At least I can still count on Chun Soft to acknowledge all the Pokemon and not go for the lowest common denominator.

I'll believe that when I see it. Until then, I feel confident that there'll be some new non Gen 1 Alolan Pokemon will be showing up sooner or later.

Because it gives the impression that they're purposefully holding back content for Stars. Like @Dcubed said, the only way for them to bring out Stars so soon on a new console is if they were developing it alongside Sun/Moon. Which means it's very possible (and very likely) that ideas were thought of and then someone probably came along and said something along the lines of "You should save that one for the Switch version" And it's not a very nice feeling being played like that.

I'm guessing that Z stone isn't available anywhere in game? I checked @Serebii's site and it didn't mention anything about a location in-game. Ugh... Basically, complete nutters (Like me) have every single Pokemon (Well, their final evolutions at least) ready and waiting in their PC of the latest Pokemon game. In other words, once the next game drops, I simply transfer my Pokemon over, breed the ones I need to fill the Pokedex and catch any new ones. Including new forms. I'm the guy who trades Pokemon... with himself. I'm the guy who will happily restart a game three times just so I can get all the starters. In other words, this is me. I think the only people more insane than me are the shiny hunters.

Well, now I have two questions. 1. What's it for? Is it an actual Pokemon you can't get another way in-game. 2. I assume digital versions will get the same code in the receipt?

Oh crap, I just realised that there's a very good chance that there'll be a Pokemon you can only get through Mystery Gift in the first few months. Someone please tell me I'm wrong so I don't have to double back on myself in order to keep my living dex intact...

I'm not happy, it's a big middle finger to those who got the 3DS version. That European delay seems to be a blessing in disguise. Thanks Italy!

@S\.C\.G you available over the weekend?

BTW, @ReZourceman Seeing as it's very likely I'm passing on Sun, you're gonna have to find another way to get an Ash-Greninja. Sorry about that.

That already happened. It's called Black/White. I'll boycott whatever the hell I like, the more I've seen of Sun/Moon, the less I've wanted it. This is just the thing that's pushed me past the line. Wasn't it on this very site a few days ago that I was told something along the lines of "vote with my wallet"? Well now, this is me voting. I no longer see a good reason for me to buy it.

Well, if it's true, between the embarrassing pandering and this, I'm officially unsold on Sun. Congrats Game Freak/TPC, never thought you'd get me to miss a game.

Uhhh, I just keep getting a 404 error when I click that link...

Right, OK. Well, don't say I didn't warn you. I hope your hype is well placed.

Now before you go too mental, it could be just a copyright protection maneuver. Temper your expectations, people!

You were so lucky that a combination of Swapdoodle inundating me with notes from my friends and South Park's latest episode made me forget about tonight.

Yeah, genuinely surprised by this. Although there's no option for including camera snaps. (No surprise there) Instead we're getting mini Art Academy style lessons. Nowhere near as in depth, but it's nice, might have to get a pack.

Nikki's back in employment, guys! It's out today. Guess that's our replacement for Sun/Moon, huh?

Uh-oh, do I see a certain picture coming up?

Did it purely to confuse you. Worked like a charm.

Oooh careful, wouldn't want you to cut yourself on all that edge now, would we? Or a better idea, take that suggestion, remove anything to do with GO, and release that instead. Nah, they're already doing a follow-up to GO. It's called Pokemon Sun/Moon and I know it's a follow up because it said so on the bus advert. Still feels utterly gross.

Well, that's just stupid. Everyone here knows @nekunando has the best imaginary friend.

Pfft! 200 songs? Ain't got nothing on Theatrythm! Glad it's coming out, not for my sake, but @Dcubed and @Ugh first aid go absolutely bonkers over these games and it's always amusing.

Uhhh... Does it have to be a mobile app? Because I was gonna suggest Pokemon SoulSilver/Heartgold and it's Pokewalker.

Anything but that. I would happily let it be a port of Sun/Moon and eat all the crow in the world, let it be anything but that. And it's going to be a spin-off, come on, man.
