5 things to look out for in Pokémon Sun and Moon

We’ve been stuck with Pokémon Go—the latest and most disappointing in a long line of Pokémon spinoffs that include actually great games like Pokémon Stadium, Pokémon Snap and Pokémon Conquest—for the past few months, but the wait for a proper game is over.
