I work at a local target. (No, I haven't been fired.) Recently, I believe a few days ago, the official guidebooks (or whatever they're called, i don't remember) were shipped to our store so they'll be ready to stock when appropriate. Being the Pokémon fanatic that I am, I decided to take a peek at them. (This was the risky part, I had to open the box and I'm pretty sure there are security cameras in the back.) I can tell you a vast amount of information about the games. (I don't have a phone, so I couldn't take pics. Sorry ) I'll begin with some basics.
Keep in mind very little plot info was in the books. I also didnt have much time to look at them.
>There will be a psychic alolan form for Kingler, a Ghost one for Ponyta and Rapidash, and an Electric one for Seaking.
>The final evos are named Strigivine, Tiferno, and Barachoir
I will answer other questions in replies.
