ability offers players a new way to get around:
Mantine Surf. Both a method of travelling
between the islands and a sport, Mantine Surf
lets Trainers pull off radical moves as they flip,
spin and surf on the cresting waves.
That's not the only way to look cool.
The Alola Photo Club has rolled into town,
allowing Trainers to take pictures with their
favorite Pokémon. Choose your Trainer's
fashion, pose, and favorite Pokémon, and pull
together the perfect photo with your choice of
backgrounds and camera angles. Choose from
hundreds of different stickers to add the final
touches, then share them with other players.
As a bonus, taking a photo with your Pokémon
will increase its affection toward you.
While they offer plenty of fun new features,
the islands are far from a paradise. Dark clouds
are swirling in the skies of Alola, and the Prism
Pokémon, Necrozma, seems to be at the

center of the conflict. This crystalline Psychic
Pokémon can merge with the Alola region's
legendary Pokémon to channel incredible
power, posing a threat greater than any seen
before. When merged with Solgaleo, Necrozma
takes on its powerful Dusk Mane form, capable
of raining down Sunsteel Strikes, while the
Lunulas-merged Dawn Wings Necrozma can
channel a devastating Moongeist Beam. On
top of that, Necrozma has its own Prismatic
Laser to wreak destruction.
If that wasn't bad enough, more Ultra Beasts
have emerged into world. Codenamed UB
Burst and UB Assembly, these extraterrestrial
foes possess power that transcends trainers'
understanding and can't be caught in regular
Poké Balls. You'll need to summon all the
power of your Z-moves, your friends and, of
course, your Pokémon to complete your Island
Challenge and save Alola.

DUSK LYCANROC
Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon introduced
Rockruff, the cute puppy-like Rock Pokémon
that evolves into the tougher and more
graceful Lycanroc. That evolution could go one
of two different ways, however, with Lycanroc
adapting either a Midday or Midnight form
depending on whether Rockruff was evolved
in Sun or Moon.
Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon introduce
a third potential appearance for Lycanroc:
Dusk Form. This sleek, burnt-orange canine
learns both Accelerock and Counter, the moves
favored by the other two Forms, and it sports
the Tough Claws ability to increase the power
of its moveset. Unlike the other two forms,
however, players have a limited opportunity
to get this more powerful Lycanroc. It evolves
only from a special Rockruff, and to get it,
you'll have to buy a copy of Pokémon Ultra Sun
or Ultra Moon before Jan. 10. Do so, though,
and you'll find an in-game gift containing your
new Rockruff adventuring buddy.
