Physical all the way, it's a very large game memory-wise(Only the two Bravely games and Xenoblade are larger) plus you still have the game and save if your 3DS gets damaged somehow.

Okay, thank you!

Is there any way to transfer the Greninja from the demo to the physical cartridge, though?

Here's the most current list of exclusives I have (I do know its out of date as there are more version exclusives for the UBs):

Also, press F to pay respects to Talonflame, the poor thing just keeps getting nerfed harder and harder with Gale Wings only working at full health.

Hmmm, do I go with edgy furry OC Lycanrock or Kamen Rider Buzzwole? Decisions, decisions...
 
Seriously? Alolan Vulpix and Ninetales are Sun exclusive? Fuck. I was going to buy Moon because Lunala looks awesome but now I don't know.
 
I plan on getting Moon, so I'd be willing to throw around Midnight-Form Lycanroc, Drampa, Oranguru, and other version-exclusives I can actually catch/breed. Not sure if they'll be any good in a competitive sense, but if anyone just wants them for Dex completion I'm more than willing to help out.
 
Really disappointed to see Wimpod's evolution basically keeps the Wimp Out ability (automatically switches out when it hits half HP or lower). I was hoping it would get Intimidate, or maybe a new version of Suction Cups.

Mareanie (purple urchin thing with blue hair arms) gets a new ability Merciless, which makes all its attacks land critical hits when the opponent is poisoned. This gives its poor offensive stats a much needed boost, and it's got the defenses to stick around while it sets up. Merciless+Toxic+Venoshock sounds like a force to be reckoned with.

Oh god poor Pyukumuku. Base speed of 5. Is that the lowest of any Pokemon to date?

To avoid double posting, here's the videos of the new Pokemon's stats and movepools.
And here's footage of Marshadow's siganture move, Spectral Thief, in action:

The only other Poke'mon to date with a base speed of 5 are Munchlax and Shuckle, followed closely by Trapinch, Ferroseed, and Bonsly who have base 10.

Yeah, poor thing is slow as shit. But if it gets OHKO'd then it's Insides Out ability would probably cause some pretty good damage on the opponent. Otherwise I can only see it being used if it gets moves like Counter or is part of some Trick Room set.
 
Good thing I'm getting both

Counter and Bide are among the only moves it gets that can't be taunted. Function-wise it's basically a Wobbufett that can't trap but has recovery and can learn TMs, none of which are traditional damage-dealing moves. So unfortunately it's a completly passive Pokemon
 
Isn't there some way in the newer games to specifically catch/breed shinies, or clone them? I'm in love with the fluffy purple Ninetales! ♡_♡

There are methods to hunting shinies in the wild, and breeding one is more a matter of patience than anything else since shinies are a random chance. If the Shiny Charm exists and Sun and Moon it will increase your chances of encountering a shiny, but you only get that if you complete your Poke'Dex.

If you want to go the non-legitimate route, you can hack them in. I personally don't know of any hacking programs to use on a 3DS, though, but I know they exist.
 
Here are all of the weather setters now

Drought:
-Mega Charizard Y
-Vulpix
-Ninetales
-Torkoal
-Groudon

Drizzle:
-Politoed

-Hippowdon
-Gigalith

Snow Warning:
-Alolan Vulpix
-Alolan Ninetales
-Abomasnow
-Mega Abomasnow
-Vanilluxe
-Amaura
-Aurorus

Addtionally Terrains might see more use now:
-They added a new terrain, Psychic Terrain
-There are 4 auto-setters, one for each terrain(The four Tapus)
-They added a new hold item that extends the duration terrains last similar to the weather rocks

They even stack with weather, who doesn't like Combining Drizzle and Electric Surge to get perfect accuracy thunders that get a 50% power boost?

Here is a lowdown of the Terrains(Grounded Pokemon=Pokemon without Levitate or the Flying Type):

Electric Terrain:
-Grounded Pokemon cannot be put to Sleep
-The power of Electric type moves is increased by 50%
-Nature Power becomes Thunderbolt
-Secret Power has a 30% chance of paralysis
-Camouflage makes the user become an Electric Type
-Pokemon with the Surge Surfer Ability have their Speed doubled

Grassy Terrain:
-Grounded Pokemon have 1/16th of their max HP restored at the end of each turn
-The power of Grass type moves is increased by 50%
-The power of Bulldoze, Earthquake, and Magnitude is halved
-Nature Power becomes Energy Ball
-Secret Power has a 30% chance of sleep
-Camouflage makes the user become a Grass Type
-Pokemon with the Grass Pelt Ability have their Defense increased by 50%
-Pokemon using the move Floral Healing heal 66% of their max HP instead of 50%

Misty Terrain:
-Grounded Pokemon cannot be inflicted with status effects(And as of Gen VII can't be confused either)
-The power of Dragon type moves is halved
-Nature Power becomes Moon Blast
-Secret Power has a 30% chance lowering special attack
-Camouflage makes the user become a Fairy Type

Psychic Terrain:
-Grounded Pokemon become immune to moves with increased priority that target them(Self-targeting priority moves like Prankster-boosted Calm Mind still work)
-The power of Psychic Type moves is increased by 50%
-Nature Power becomes Psychic
-Secret Power has a 30% chance of lowering speed
-Camouflage makes the user become a Psychic Type

Anyone have a list of the pokemon that can be found in Alola and the new Z-moves in action? Know I shouldn't be spoiling myself so much, but at this point i've dug myself far too deep with the SuMo spoilers.

I can see people using one Pokemon to set up Electric Field, then switching to Alolan Raichu to land some ridiculously overpowered Electro Ball attacks. With a base speed of 110 and an ability that doubles its speed, its Electro Ball will easily land with 120-150 base power on all but the fastest Pokemon. Add in STAB and the 50% boost from Electric Terrain and you're looking at a lot of damage.

Unless Electro Ball gets nerfed in Gen 7, that is.
