The water in that battle environment is great. Can't wait for the NX version.
WISHIWASHI LOOKS AWESOME

I still don't get its ability. "When it reaches a certain level..." Wouldn't that just be the same as evolution? It's like an evolved form that starts as a base form but after a certain level immediately turns into its other form at the start of battle... O_O
Raichu has no point.Point of Raichu is that he looks more badass than Pikachu. This a step back for this 'mon.

Dude just posted a webm of part of the trailer showing Wishiwashi in action!
Not sure how to upload it since the 4chan link would disappear.
That must be it. I think they want to emphasize that it's one fish who calls upon other fish, and the best way to see this contrast is to make it a form change. However, this means it can't have other more useful abilities. It probably gains a stat boost, but if it were an evolved form it would gain a stat boost + a useful ability. Hmm...It seems that way. I guess they didn't want to make it a normal evo since it's multiple Pokemon.
Fuck that spoiler in the thread title, man. Seriously: fuck that.
This is Pokémon. We're all being silly.
I don't know what other Pokémon have Alolan formes, though, because other threads regarding this subject have been respectful to people who are on media blackout.
Is it really too much to ask for the word "Raichu" to be removed from the thread title?
I know of at least one more Gaffer who'll casually stumble upon this thread's title and have the surprise ruined for him.
Thanks, Nostradamus.
Super bummed that this means there won't be an alolan Gyarados.
FtfyWishiwashi becomes School at a certain level...
This is like better than regular evolution.
My god, Nintendo & Game Freak have to get a handle on these leaks.
It's only a rumor for now, so we aren't sure about its legitimacy. Unlike the NX leak, only one (pretty reliable, from what others have said) source is backing the rumor up right now.The water in that battle environment is great. Can't wait for the NX version.
How, it has no ability at that point.Ftfy

No Eviolite?What are the potential benefits/differences of not being a traditional evolution?
what do you guys think of my new avatar?
It's already got a mega.Super bummed that this means there won't be an alolan Gyarados.
It's the one I wanted the most.

My guess, any Pichus or Pikachus caught in Alola evolve into Alolan Raichu. Pichus & Pikachus from other regions will likely evolve into Regular Raichu.I have to wonder, will any Pikachu that evolves in Alola become Alolan Raichu? Or will Alolan Pikachu also be a thing? Or different evolution methods?
Well played.what do you guys think of my new avatar?
Didn't stop Koffing > Weezing or Magnemite > Magneton > Magnezone or Klink > Klang > Klinklang
The written website update will probably be how we learn how the ability really works
