The first images from CoroCoro have leaked and have revealed the latest news on Sun & Moon. As always, do note that translations are preliminary while we work on them. The little sandcastle is called Sunabaa while the big one is called Shirodesuna. Both are Ghost/Ground-type. Pre-evolved Bewear is called Nuikoguma and remains Normal/Fighting-type. and the fish is Yowashi is Water-type and appears to have the ability to change its appearance from its Single Form into a larger fish, its School Form. It also confirms Alolan Meowth & Marowak. Alolan Meowth is Dark-type while Alolan Marowak is Fire/Ghost-type.
We also see the first bits of the antagonist team, Team Skull. Its boss is called Guzma and the girl is Plumeri
Edit @ 07:31: It also confirms that next month's issue will contain a poster featuring Rockruff's "Secret Evolution".
07:47: Alolan Meowth developed after being bred by the royal family of Alola. Alolan Marowak developed in response to its natural predators in order to resist them. 18:20: Due to clearer images cropping up, we have a few new descriptions. Nuikoguma is very popular among women and children, and tops the lists of Pokemon people want to meet. It hates being touched and will kick and struggle to resist. It's very powerful, but once it evolves into Bewear it truly gains herculean strength
Sunabaa is a grudge that dwells inside a pile of sand turns into a Pokemon. Truly a terrifying creature
Shirodesuna steals the life force from other Pokemon. Those Pokemon's grudges turn into a new Sunaba. We'll bring more as it comes

[Neonivek]

Ok if there is one thing I'll say about these recent Pokémon gimmicks is that... I feel like they take way too long to be properly "introduced" so to speak.

Mega pokemon have yet to saturate all the generations like they have Generation 1 for example.

Alola pokemon are going down the same route Mega has and is starting on the first generation and branching out from there.

the fuck is thiiiis

That's gonna become a reaction image, I just know it.

Image 3: Our new Alolan forms for Meowth (Dark) and Marowak (Fire/Ghost)
Image 4: Our new Antagonists, a brief sneak-peek in the lower-right

That Marowak looks awesome, but I don't really get the point of a new Meowth.

Also, calling it now: Team Surf.

It's Team Skull.

[Cthulhu]

I love the ghost-types of the Alola region so far. I'm calling it right now that Haunted Sand Castle is going to dominate the metagame in some way.

Also, next to that sneak peek of the villains... is that an exclamation mark used to indicate the start of a battle? In other words, an exclamation mark to show that somebody's spotted you?

I bet it'll have shadow tag or arena trap.

But I hope not.  We have enough big STAB ground moves as it is.

[Akura]

I'm liking the "just deal with it" look that the Alola Meowth has.

I wonder if they'll make yet another remake of the Gen I games and make Alola Marowak the boss of Pokemon Tower - and it'd be the only Alola-form Pokemon in the game.

Take a look at the blurry upper-right image. That's Pikachu getting eaten alive by this thing. Just imagine this, you're playing on the beach with your beloved, adorable little Pikachu, building a sand castle, when a wave hits part of it. Maybe you had decorated one of the castle's towers with something that got swept away. You run after it as Pikachu tries to rebuild the damaged castle. You catch up to the thing you were chasing and pick it up. You turn around, but are shocked to see that Pikachu is nowhere in sight. Panicking slightly, you run back to the sand castle to see where Pikachu went. There's nothing there when you get back to the sand castle, only noticing that it's undamaged... and maybe slightly different than you thought it looked before. But Pikachu is nowhere to be seen. You spend the entire rest of the day looking for your Pikachu, but never find them. You go home sad. Pikachu is gone.

Alola Muk. 

But seriously:

It is rumored that the ferocious warning markings on its belly differ from area to area.

It's actually the expression I make when Marowak has more regional appearance diversity than Arbok.

[Akura]

Well, that was only just a rumor. Doesn't necessarily mean it's true.

But then, what the hell do Pokemon Professors do all day? I mean, Silph Co.'s and Devon Co.'s product development labs do far more and generally more practical Pokemon research than Oak and Birch do. Their products are meant for Pokemon and thus require actual testing, and the results of that testing tend to reveal quite a bit about Pokemon and how they work.

[MrRoboto75]

The professor's job is to identify kids' genders, spout exposition, and hand them PDA encyclopedias that only tell them about pokemon after they catch them.

You brought an electric pokemon to an area where ground-types are known to prey on unattended pokemon.

Bring your weavile next time and see what happens.

Oh my god
It's a sea cucumber

It also looks like a baby Digimon which is a huge plus in my book.

[Culise]

Electric/Psychic Alola Raichu!  Wonder what the new ability Surge Surfer is.

Another new leak.  Diglets out.

[Elephant Parade]

Another new leak.  Diglets out.

This is fake, right? Like, at the very least, the name is fake, right?

...Right?
