Meet the newest members of the Pokémon family.
The Official Pokémon Channel on YouTube posted a video today that revealed new pocket monsters for the Sun and Moon versions of the popular series. Sun and Moon release for the Nintendo 3DS on November 18. These are some of the most anticipated games for the rest of year. The Pokémon series has sold over 200 million copies worldwide, and the brand is reaching new heights of popularity thanks to the mobile game Pokémon Go.

I especially like how Comfey looks like a leis, which makes sense considering Sun and Moon’s Polynesian-inspired setting. And Mimikyu definitely seems … interesting.
Pokémon fever is at an all-time high right now thanks to the mobile megahit Pokémon Go. The success of that game could translate to increased sales for Sun and Moon.
