Name: TAPU KOKO
Pokémon Type: Electric/Fairy-Type
Leading the Nintendo 3DS games is Tapu Koko. This electric/fairy type was brought into battle by its powerful trainer Hala. Tapu Koko was also the second Pokémon with that type matching aside from Dedenne. Unlike its contemporary, Tapu Koko was based from vicious insects rather than fluffy rodents. It looks more like a mosquito or gnat of some kinds.
Name: CUTIEFLY
Pokémon Type: Flying/Fairy-Type
Cutiefly bears a resemblance to both a hummingbird and a mosquito. In the video, Cutiefly was first caught in action as it unleashes an airborne assault on a Pancham. This Pokémon lives up to the first part of its name and is truly cute.
Name: TOGEDEMARU
Pokémon Type: Electric-Type
Togedemaru is not the traditional electric rat but a creature made of part-steel. Togedemaru was not shown in action in the video but based on its built it shows that enemies will have a hard time in a match. Additionally, this Pokémon has two interesting qualities. Firstly, Togedemaru boxes a punch with its Discharge attack. The second one is its extreme cuteness.
Name: CHARJABUG
Pokémon Type: Electric/Bug-Type
Charjabug resembles a combination of a bomb shelter and a festooned garbage truck. Although bearing the worst name among the group, Charjabug delivered an electric-charged tackle against Popplio.
Name: VIKAVOLT
Pokémon Type: Electric/Bug-Type
Vikavolt is part-bug and part-electric. But unlike Tapu Koko, it has a clear inspiration - a beetle! This electric bug is not afraid to bite and was equiooed with a Zap Cannon. Based on the battle, it goes to show that even the most harmless Pokémon pre-evolution can turn out to be the scariest-looking.
Name: BRUXISH
Pokémon Type: Water/Psychic-Type
Bruxish has the special ability to amaze its opponents maybe because of its very colorful and exuberant display of appearance. It has only one known move - the Psywave! Bruxish performs the move againsta the opposing Pikachu, causing slight damage on the electric-type Pokémon.
Name: DRAMPA
Pokémon Type: Normal/Dragon-Type
Drampa is "Pokémon Sun and Moon's best addition to the Pokédex. Drampa is the fisrt a normal/dragon-type Pokémon. For all we know, Drampa had had a cameo before in a dream.
