Pokemon Sun and Moon Gets Mega Stone Rumble & Ash Hat Pikachu Craze


There's a good reason to go back to playing Pokemon Sun and Moon. The developer has recently announced two new interesting events that will get you some new items, including a new skin for Pikachu.

Serebii has compiled these events, the first of which is the Battle Competition titled Kanto X Alola Regional Rumble competition. This is a Single Battle competition that will make use of the Kanto and Alola Pokedex in the game. This means that the likes of Cosmog, Cosmoem, Lunala, Magearna, Mew, Mewtwo, Necrozma, Solgaleo, and Zygarde are all not allowed into the competition.

Additionally, Mega Stones are not allowed during the run. Then again, the reward for participating here is as much as two Mega Stones, so that's something to look forward to. It's a great opportunity for those who may not want to wait until later this year to get the Mega Stones.

If you are joining this run, then you will need to play anytime between March 17 and 19 to stand a chance to win the Pidgeotite and the Steelixite.

Another event, though this time seemingly limited only in Japan, is the Ash Hat Pikachu. The new ‘mon was just leaked via the latest CoroCoro images for Pokemon Sun and Moon.

So far, the redeem code will be part of the distribution happening for the movie via pre-booking tickets. The Original Cap can be obtained sometime between April 15 and May 1 or July 19 to 31. Other caps that can be obtained between March and October including Hoenn Cap, Sinnoh Cap, the Unova Cap, the Kalos Cap, and the Alola Cap Pikachu.

Nintendo and the Pokemon Company seem bent on keeping the latest iteration of the game alive. Hopefully, this same enthusiasm will also be on a high for the other games in the franchise.
