Realistically speaking, how many new Pokemon, excluding Alola forms, will be in Pokemon Sun and Moon?

~120-130. They're working with the same system as they did for XY, and although they may be using a new engine it's not that different really. Black and White followed the same pattern and introduced 156. Instead of focusing on things like rendering all of the models of Pokémon, implementing megas, creating a 3D world for the first time, they have more resources to spend on new Pokémon.
Jirachi Masuda already said there would only be 10.
>>27798205
100 new Pokemon, and 20 to 50 Alola forms is pretty fucking fair considering that we just had the lowest amount of new Pokemon for a new generation, and they aren't wasting time and attention on modeling old gen Pokemon.
80-90 at most. Alolan forms take the place of "thing that takes almost as much effort as making new pokemon but not actually a new pokemon" exactly like megas. Expecting more than 100 is too optimistic.
70 to 80, excluding mythicals.
>>27798243
But... we have more than 10 confirmed

He said there would be more than 10, retard.
>>27798396
>70 exactly
>>27798384
He was joking when he said the word "more" according to serebii. If you think there's actually going to be more than that your dumb.

>(you)
>>27798235
This sounds about right. 110-120ish new Pokemon, +20-30 Alola Forms. Megas still in the game, but no new ones (for now anyway).
>>27798235
>>27798205
109, with a total of 11 of them (not counting Zygarde forms; Magearna, Box Trio, Tapu Trio, ??? trio)
>>27798205
There are already at least 52
>>27798514
I know the chances are slim, but I wish they'd just drop the mega shit altogether in favor of region forms. They're a much more interesting concept
At least 10
Anyone expecting more than 100 for new mons and Alola forms combined is being naive
>>27798235
I think this is a bit unrealistic.
>>27798246
This is more realistic, though I'm not expecting more than 20 Regional Variants
Regional Variants seem made specifically to give us new content but slow down on the number of new Pokemon. Its silly to expect 130 new Mons now. I'm thinking they don't want the number rising to quickly
