The inclusion of new Ultra Wormholes, portals through which you can access small shunt dimensions, offers even more opportunities to battle and capture rare Pokémon. (Though, sadly, I have to wait until Friday’s street date before I can unlock my Dusk Form Lycanroc.) And while I would’ve loved to see a passel of exciting Alolan variants-I still can’t quit you, Black Metal Marowak!-it’s a bit hard to complain about extra vanilla Pokémon when we also get exotic delights like new Ultra Beasts (UB Assembly, UB Burst, and UB Adhesive) as well as multiple forms for the Legendary Necrozma. The addition of all these extra Pokémon really shows, even from the earliest hours of play.

In Ultra Sun, however, I’ve yet to reach that level of Yungoos fatigue. Here a Yungoos, there a Yungoos, everywhere a Yungoos. With that in mind, here are my five favorite new things about Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon.īy the time I’d battled my way through my first island challenge in the original Pokémon Sun, I was already so sick of Yungoos that I could barely see straight. But rather than spoil unexpected variations on familiar plot points, I’d instead like to look at how these Ultra editions have altered the way the games play. Nintendo and The Pokémon Company International have made much of the new additions and enhancements to Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, and, despite some initial skepticism, I was universally impressed with these tweaks. Instead, these Ultra editions feel more like an alternate-dimensional take on the island originals, a parallel journey that’s familiar but not without its surprises. Yes, Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon do represent a return journey to the Alola region, but not strictly in the same rote manner as, say, Platinum in relation to the earlier Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. “But, Z.” you say, “ Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon are just retreads of last year’s Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon!” (Okay, I don’t think you’re really saying that, but please allow me to use this helpful rhetorical device.)
#Pokemon moon vs ultra moon series#
While Pokémon fans are still clamoring for the eventual release of a core series game on the Nintendo Switch, we do, at least, get a new 3DS title just in time for the holiday season.
