Z moves this, Z moves that But why are they called Z moves in

i'm sure the z-moves are related to zygarde and they are doing a cross-gen legendary thing

Nah man it's just Super Saiyans

Basically GFs way to lazily implement the "Z" from "XY and Z" into the games, so they don't have to make a Pokemon Z game

What if the Z crystals have a zygarde cell inside and the pokemon is actually just channeling the cell's power

Z is just the coolest letter in the alphabet

That is my prediction as well

this story will begin in a different world from Zero

This is such a laziness on GF side, they want to push Zygarde and Z stuff but without having to create and updated kalos.

XY = Pokemon Z1

SM = Pokemon Z2

>>27517486
So why arent they called Zen-moves but Z moves

Sun and Moon are a sequel to X and Y.

>>27517519
Why are they called Pokemon instead of Pocket Monsters? It's faster

>>27517535
>yfw we go back to Kalos after the first set of credits
Seeing as its rumored we aren't going to have any gym battles, this could be their way to have them anyway.

Maybe it's related with Zygarde or maybe it's just because Z is the last letter in our alphabet, z-moves are the last move, the last resource

>>27517449
Because Kalos was a mistake.

>>27517519
Japs pronounce "Z" as "Zed"

Zynchro

>>27517152
It stands for zero, as in the HP your Pokemon have when some faggot decides to use it in an online battle.
Z moves are worse cancer than Megas.

>>27518742
Yea its only best selling 3ds game ever, such a mistake right?

They will probably make an 'Episode Z' postgame that gives some BS lore about how Zygarde created the Z gems after turning into it's 100% form. Featuring Zinnia.

>>27517486
It's this. The Japanese site also calls them "zenryoku no kougeki" or "full power attacks".
http://www.pokemon.co.jp/ex/sun_moon/fight/160801_01.html

Z-Move (Z-Waza) stands for Full Power Move (Zenryoku Waza)

>>27517181
This is what they are.

>>27517175
Or Z comes after Sun & Moon, senpai

>>27518770
Everyone does except amerifats

It just sounds cool.

You know that the trope where there's a number added to the end of a machine? Like "The Death Ray 3000"? It's just that.

>MFW Z-moves are based on the Sonic Wisps powers

Is every z-move going to just be high bp move with nothing more to it

>>27517449
>creating brand new games instead of reusing the same shitty region
>laziness

>>27517152
>Z is the last letter in the alphabet
>Z-Moves are super strong
>Therefore they're to be used as a LAST resort
:^)

Also, why has no one realized the prototype for Z-moves has already been experienced?

Yes because we know exactly how this new mechanic works. Just like we knew what Awakened Mewtwo would do before August :^)

>>27524233
I saw the connection when they said there was one move for every type. It's not especially crazy though.

>>27523940
It seems like they ignore immunities according to the electric Z attack on a traditional sandslash

>>27517181
>Z crystals contains Zygarde's life force which is used up every time you use Z attacks like Philosopher's stones in FMA

>>27524299
I was wrong, Z electric was used against an ice shrew

>>27517486
I love it when they do cool things with kanji
