Pokémon Sun & Moon - Coverage Day 13

The games have been out almost a week now and our coverage is starting to wind to a close. As usual, I'll be posting the main focal points here, while more in-depth details go on the discovery thread on the forums (including some details I won't post here). If you want to remain unspoiled, do not visit the Sun/Moon section until you have your game. Don't worry as blatant spoilers will NOT be on the home page.

Pokémon Sun & Moon - Battle Spot Rules

An update has happened to the Pokémon Sun & Moon Battle Spot. As a temporary measure, the moves Memento & Parting Shot have been banned from all elements of Battle Spot including Free Battles, Rating Battles and any imminent Online Competitions. This is a temporary measure as they explore and fix a glitch that causes games to crash out when the Z-Powered versions of the moves are activated. We'll post when we get further information
