Pokémon Sun & Moon: 10 Leaked Rumours You’re Not Supposed To Know

2. The Game Will Allow Travel To Another Region

We know that a lot of older Pokémon are finding their way into the Pokédex for Sun & Moon, and that many of them are bringing new forms and features with them. What's perhaps more intriguing still, is the information we've been given about some of the new additions to the series. Specifically, this relates to Yungoos, whose Pokédex entry at the Official Site reads as follows:

"Yungoos is not a Pokémon that is native to the Alola region. It was brought to the region to help deal with the explosive population of a certain other Pokémon, and now Yungoos are commonly seen around the Alola region."

Since Yungoos is being introduced with this generation, but joining via a region that it's not originally native to some readers have inferred that there may be a smaller sub-region included in this game that players will get access to after the main game is complete. Comparisons have been drawn to the Orange Islands from the early days of the anime series, and the numerous ports around Alola's islands could be perfect for launching long haul seafarers.

Post-game content has always been a tricky one for the Pokémon series, and perhaps these very subtle hints could be suggesting that there'll be Gold/Silver-esque activity following the conclusion of the game's story.
