No ice type specialist trainer in Sun and Moon
Sina is.
And for some reason there are two Psychic specialists (Faba and Dexio).

That Glaceon swept me. Eeveelutions are good early game bosses, it seems. Or at least when you're using Alolamons only.
Because YOU'RE supposed to be the ice type specialist

holy shit

Her Glaceon made me sweat.heh

>Ice Silvally
>Crabominable
>A-Ninetales
>A-Sandslash
>Vanilluxe (since it got a new ability)
>Froslass if playing as Chicken, Glalie if playing as Sun
It's also nice to choose Rowlet so Gladion gets Fire Silvally.

Crabominable sucks way too much dick. Replace with Swinub (QR scans)
Other than that there's not much more you can do because the Ice type sucks and the pokes they give you this gen are pretty awful

Dexio and Sina are not Alolan Psychic/Ice specialists. They are just Psychic/Ice specialists that happen to be in Alola. You don't list Grimsley as Alolan dark type specialist, do you?
>>30981872
Then Alola also doesn't have a Dragon-type specialist because Ryuki comes from another region.
>>30981902
True that, but people usually give him a pass since he's a new character.
>>30981872
>>30981902
>>30981918
Aether isn't even from Alola either. So you can't count Faba as an Alolan Psychic specialist.
>>30981946
>Aether isn't even from Alola either
what did she mean by this
>>30981902
I wonder if he's from an upcoming a British Isles-based region, given his glam rock style.
>>30981957
The organisation itself is not. Yet, there's no information regarding what region Faba is from, he might be Alolan, he might not. We assume he is, just for the sake of simplicity.
>>30981957
They're not. Aether has branches in several regions, with Alola's Aether Paradise just being one of them.
Also Lillie's diary explicitly states that she and her family are not from Alola.

All the Aether guys have names based on german words for flowers, so they're probably from the pokémon world version of Germany.

you have no reading comprehension, do you?

Oh, you battle Sina in Moon version? I thought she was exclusive to the Battle Tree.
>>30981338
I don't mind this. I mean, nearly every game has an Ice specialist, so it's not a big deal. I guess Sina counts if you have Moon though. The only other game without one is BW2, and even then, Zinzolin may count as one, or Brycen in PWT.
Could have done without an Electric specialist though. They're in literally every main series game.
>>30982305
Yes. That's probably why they decided to make Sina exclusive for Sun's Battle Tree. In Moon you fight Sina in Heahea. Dexio at Poni Canyon is the same for both games, though
>>30982362
this
In case you haven't noticed, there's an ice type specialist in EVERY other game. this is the first time there hasn't been a real one. I'm OK with this; I'm sick of the "late-game ice type" meme

Fucking patriarchy
