As previously speculated, there were bits of rumors that the new "Pokemon Sun and Moon" release would somehow be connected with the mobile game "Pokémon Go," which has been very popular among younger players. Well here's another story that might be the basis of that rumor.
First off, "Pokemon Sun and Moon" game director Junichi Masuda mentioned in a report that the team would "want to have a kind of way to connect" "Pokemon Sun and Moon" and "Pokemon Go" "or have a way for people who enjoyed one to enjoy some of their progress in the other." Additionally, some people found hidden easter egg: a code in the new "Pokemon Sun and Moon" release which references the mobile game "Pokemon Go" directly.
The latest trailer for the new "Pokemon Sun and Moon" game has also been released. The trailer was aptly titled "A World Beyond," giving excited fans a peek into what the game will be all about.
Aside from reports of "Pokemon Sun and Moon" being integrated with the popular mobile game "Pokemon Go," the demo version of "Sun and Moon" will be released on October 18. This is expected to feature the different evolutions of the game's three-starter Pokemon.
Ash-Greninja from the animated TV series "Pokemon XYZ" is also confirmed to appear in the new "Pokemon Sun and Moon" game as a member of the player's team. To download "Pokemon Sun and Moon" demo version, players may go to the website or the Nintendo eShop.
