So did Nintendo just completely forget about these two for this game?
They got +10 to hp.
There's an NPC in the desert who wants to see one depending on the version.He can't remember their names and says "Sol.." and "Luna..", so if you show him box legends he has different dialogue.

Them and Tropius not being in the native dex just seems kind of... well, stupid on GF's part.

And Solrock got Flare Blitz.

>they don't evolve from minior
What a waste of an opportunity.

No, they both got +20 base HP, Solrock got Flare Blitz and Lunatone Power Gem. Should have been in the dex too, but it's better than nothing.
I always wonder how they decide what pokemon will appear in a regional dex. Do they just throw darts at a board?

I think its just "we gotta include pikachu and magikarp, throw in lucario cause its marketable, decide what pokemon we can relate to the old pokemon and then make the rest up as we go along"

For SM, GameFreak was considering VGC.
Then they did a few pounds of coke and made the UBs and Tapus, which will dominate VGC until the Genies eventually join them.
Solrock and Lunatone can only get Morning Sun and Moonlight respectively from the now dead Dream World

Lunatone got Power Gem and another move too, Psyshock I think.
... its something I guess?
>>30225861
Maybe for an event?
>>30226100
Slugma also should be in.

>Power Gem is now base 80
So is Lunatone okay-ish now?

Still slow and fragile, but they were both pretty usable for in game regardless, they're just a little better now.
Competitive not really though I still use Solrock as a Trick Room suicide lead just cause I love Solrock.
