🏝️ Welcome to Alola

The seventh generation of Pokémon games brought players to the Hawaii‑inspired Alola region in *Pokémon Sun*, *Moon*, *Ultra Sun*, and *Ultra Moon*. This tropical setting introduced a distinct cultural flavor, four main islands, and a host of new Pokémon species.

💥 Z-Moves

Z-Moves are cinematic, high‑power attacks usable once per battle when a Pokémon holds the correct Z‑Crystal and knows a move of the matching type. They ignore accuracy checks, can break through Protect‑type moves with reduced damage, and often turn the tide of battle. Exclusive Z‑Moves exist for certain species, such as Solgaleo’s *Searing Sunraze Smash* and Pikachu’s *Catastropika*.

🛡️ Totem Pokémon

Totem Pokémon are supersized, aura‑empowered versions of certain species, fought at the end of Island Trials instead of traditional Gyms. They can call ally Pokémon for assistance, forcing players to adapt their strategy to 2‑on‑1 scenarios.

📱 Rotom Dex

The Rotom‑possessed Pokédex acts as both a talking guide and a navigation tool, offering map functions, tips, and even mini‑games in Ultra versions via the Roto Loto feature.

🌴 Alolan Forms

Some familiar Pokémon adapted to Alola’s environment, changing their appearance, typing, and abilities — for example, Alolan Vulpix (Ice‑type) and Alolan Raichu (Electric/Psychic). These variants added fresh strategic options to team building.
