'Pokémon Sun and Moon' news: Legendary Pokémon confirmed; final Pokémon typing revealed?

(The Pokemon Company / Nintendo)Pokemon Sun and Moon Starter Pack

Nintendo continues to announce more details about its anticipated titles "Pokémon Sun" and "Pokémon Moon." Fans have already been introduced to two of the legendary Pokémon.

Back in April, there were rumors about these legendary pocket monsters being spotted after a filing of trademark for monsters Solgaleo and Lunala. Now, The Pokémon Company has finally confirmed the existence of the two monsters.

As stated in the game's official website, Solgaleo for "Pokémon Sun" and "Lunala" for "Pokémon Moon" are part of the players' big adventures within the game. They play an important role but it has yet to be seen where they will be spotted.

Not much has been shared about the legendary monsters, but in the teaser from The Pokémon Company's YouTube channel, Lunala was seen to be facing off with ghost-poison type Pokémon, Gengar. Lunala is presumed to be a psychic-ghost type, which makes its battle with Gengar difficult. On the other hand, Solgaleo, which one would easily think to be a fire-type, is presumed to be a psychic-steel type, Polygon reported.

It was already reported that "Pokémon Sun" and "Pokémon Moon" will be set in the region of Alola. There will be three new starter Pokémon: Grass-type Rowlet, Fire-type Litten and Water-type Popplio. According to a Redditor known as TheLagoon22, The Pokémon Company may have accidentally leaked photos of how these monsters would look like once they reach their final evolution stage. Litten is said to be a Ground/Fire type; Rowlet to be Grass/Ground type and Popplio as Water/Fighting type based on the missing URL codes spotted by TheLagoon22.

The hype for the game continues to build up and fans are already excited about seeing other new Pokémon and the kind of adventure that's waiting for them. "Pokémon Sun" and "Pokémon Moon" will be available on Nintendo 3DS on Nov. 18. More details should be dropped at the 2016 Electronic Entertainment Expo this month with Nintendo's Pokémon Special.
