A new English-language Pokémon Sun and Moon trailer shows off more gameplay including two mysterious new Z-Moves shown off during a previous Japanese trailer.

The Sun and Moon trailer , named “Legendaries,” shows the CG Lunala and Solgaleo with a lot of the gameplay footage from that earlier trailer but now with the English text. We now have some new information including the Ghost and Fighting-Type Z-Moves.

Take a look at the “Legendaries” Pokémon Sun and Moon trailer below.

Neverending Nightmare is the Ghost-type Z-Move used by Mimikyu in the trailer, and while we don’t see what it does we do know from the Japanese trailer that a lot of shadows are used to pummel the opposing Pokémon .

And speaking of pummeling, the Fighting-type Z-Move is called All-Out Pummeling that has the Pokémon charge at the opponent and pummel them, of course.

Z-Moves are a brand new aspect of Pokémon battles that will be introduced in Sun and Moon . While this is not confirmed, there will be a Z-Move for every type of attack in the game with certain Pokémon receiving a species-specific (like the special Snorlax ).

A Pokémon will just have to hold the Z-Crystal and the type of Z-Move does not have to correspond with that Pokemon’s typing. The Electric-type, Pikachu can hold the Normal-type Z-Crystal and use it with a Normal-type attack.

Pokémon Sun and Moon are expected to release Nov. 18 with a special demo releasing on Oct. 18.
