The announcement of the Pokémon Sun and Moon demo coming to Oct. 18 came in a large information dump on Oct. 4. But with the special demo comes a special Pokemon that can be transferred to Sun and Moon once the games come out.
Just like the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire demo, two Pokémon holding Mega Stones were transferrable to the actual game and just like that demo, dataminers are ready to sift through the coding to get all the secrets of Sun and Moon.
There’s already a thread on 4Chan with supposed data miners ready to get their hands on the Sun and Moon demo.
Back in October 2014, when the ORAS demos were released, the data miners found some interesting tidbits. The first being Hoopa Unbound, which at the time seemed to be a Mega Hoopa, introducing the Pokémon world to a brand new beast.
However, some of the bigger reveals from the ORAS demos was the base stats of the new Mega Pokémon while also confirming that there were no secret Mega Stones that were not revealed prior to the release. The data miners also found the Move Tutor and the new ORAS move sets for each Pokémon.
The ORAS demo was only 250 MB and according to Serebii, the Sun and Moon demo will be a hefty 400 MB. There should be a lot more information hidden within the demo that encrypters and miners can decipher.
Will we find more Z-Moves? The base stats of Alola Pokémon? The rest of the Alola Pokedex? There is a lot that can be found but Pokémon fans will have to tread the internet lightly if they want to avoid spoilers or want credible information.
Many people were, and still are, tricked by posters who claim to work for Nintendo or have an early copy of the demo or game.
Perhaps GameFreak will not include the coding of the game within the demo to keep some of the secrets of Pokémon Sun and Moon hidden. With an entire month between the demo and game, trainers will learn a lot more about the games than they may want to.
Pokémon Sun and Moon will release Nov. 18.
So what do you think of data miners revealing the secrets of Sun and Moon? Sound off in the comments section below.
