Some battles also change depending on which version you have.
#SUN AND MOON COMPARE POKEMON FREE#
Ironically, I usually played the game at night because that’s when I usually had free time so it was mostly daytime in-game when I played Moon and the opposite for Sun. Moon is also timed to be 12 hours ahead of Sun to make the bulk of your playtime occur in the evening. I noticed that Pokemon Sun starts out during the day while Moon starts out at night. These include hunting for new Ultra Beasts as well as trying out the Battle Tree to take on rivals that include some classic favorites.īesides version exclusive monsters, Sun and Moon also feature a few other key differences. Fans of post-game content, meanwhile, will have a lot to do in Sun and Moon. I did enjoy the exposition involving the Pokemon Cosmog, though, which plays a key role in the story. Given all the changes and new features in the game, the story decidedly felt old-school, which can be good or bad depending on your point of view. The story itself is par for the course for a Pokemon game, with Team Skull serving as the antagonists this time around. Regardless, getting an item from trials that you can actually use made me more motivated to progress through the story compared to the traditional badges. Just note that using Z crystals takes up the item-hold slot for a Pokemon and that Z-moves only can be used once per battle.
While many of the Z-moves are shared, some are also exclusive to certain Pokemon, giving you another option in battle. Z-moves allow you to perform either a special attack or status move that can change the tide of battle.
#SUN AND MOON COMPARE POKEMON TRIAL#
Each successful trial not only allows you to go to the next one but also grants you a specific crystal for performing new specials known as “Z-moves” for various Pokemon types. I don’t know why but I found that to be just so gosh-darn adorable.Īlong the way, you also need to battle leaders known as Kahunas to fulfill the trials. Another requires you to engage in a mini-game with Marowaks while they perform a baton twirling fire dance. One requires you to defeat a certain number of Pokemon in a cave, for example. Instead, you start off with the Seven Trials of the Alola region, which makes this feel more like a bonafide adventure. The storyline gets some much-needed changes, too, starting with a break from the rigid gym-battling formula established in past games. Instead, you acquire non-battling Pokemon throughout the game that let you break rock obstacles or do all the other necessary field actions without taking up space in your party or using up a Pokemon’s limited move pool. No longer must you drag along and keep juggling Pokemon in your party with certain HM moves just so you can surf the oceans or fly the skies. At the top of the list is doing away with cumbersome “HM slaves” and replacing them with a new Poke Ride mechanic. Others are figuratively life-changing from a veteran Pokemon player’s perspective. Some are pretty simple, like the ability to easily switch Pokemon or throw Pokeballs without having to dig through a smattering of menus. Both also feature user interface and quality-of-life adjustments that make gameplay more convenient. Looks aren’t everything when it comes to Sun and Moon, however.

In contrast, Sun and Moon make the break complete, featuring fields, dungeons and cities with camera angles more akin to what you see in 3D action-adventure games. It’s an approach that games like Pokemon X and Y started somewhat without completely breaking away from the traditional overworld view of previous games. While recent games have featured battles on a 3D plane, for example, Sun and Moon applies that aesthetic across the board.

These includes a new look that evokes the feel of a full-fledged home console game as opposed to a portable title.
Once you start playing it, however, you will quickly notice that Sun and Moon are not your typical Pokemon entries.įor starters, Pokemon Sun and Moon go all-in with their presentation. Here you have two versions of a Pokemon game with their own unique Legendaries and select exclusive monsters. You can be forgiven for thinking that Pokemon Sun and Moon look like the same old song and dance at first glance.
