Clearly these people, most of whom are certainly long term pokemon fans, have ideas about what a pokemon series should contain, that Sun and Moon isn’t living up to. Yet despite how much I think it’s great, Pokemon Sun and Moon is very controversial amongst fans and there’s a lot of people who are very mad at it. Even as a kid I wasn’t as entranced by pokemon as I am now back then it was just day to day business. I love almost everything about the new Sun and Moon anime, so much so that it might be the most I’ve ever enjoyed pokemon.

In fact I really love the new art style and how colourful and round it is. So I can totally understand the mindset behind the people who are upset about the change in art style the show has made, which is much bigger in contrast than it was in Black and White. My biggest gripe was with Ash’s character design, which was made to look younger. I remember seeing the first few episodes of pokemon Black and White on TV when they were first coming out over here and I was rather upset about them. Between attending classes, fending off the pesky Team Rocket-who themselves have arrived in Alola to pave the way for their organization's future plans-and taking on the Island Challenge that is necessary to master the Z-Moves, Satoshi and Pikachu are in for an exciting new adventure.

Dazzled by his earlier battle and now in possession of a Z-Ring, Satoshi and Pikachu decide to stay behind in the Alola Region to learn and master the strength of these powerful new attacks.Įnrolling in the Pokemon School, Satoshi is joined by classmates such as Lillie, who loves Pokemon but cannot bring herself to touch them, Kaki, and many others.

The Pokemon of legend bestows upon them a Z-Ring, a necessary tool in using the Z-Moves. Later that night, he and Pikachu have an encounter with the guardian deity Pokemon of Melemele Island, the mysterious Kapu Kokeko. The pair eventually stumbles upon the Pokemon School, an institution where students come to learn more about these fascinating creatures.Īt the school, when he and one of the students-the no-nonsense Kaki-have a run-in with the nefarious thugs of Team Skull, Satoshi discovers the overwhelming might of the Z-Moves, powerful attacks originating from the Alola region that require the trainer and Pokemon to be in sync. Eager to explore the island, Satoshi and Pikachu run wild with excitement, quickly losing their way while chasing after a Pokemon. After his mother wins a free trip to the islands, Pokemon trainer Satoshi and his partner Pikachu head for Melemele Island of the beautiful Alola region, which is filled with lots of new Pokemon and even variations of familiar faces.
