Pokemon Sun and Moon release date is getting closer and closer and we know how excited we all are for these upcoming Nintendo 3DS games.

Pokemon Sun and Moon Z-Moves

One of the highly awaited Pokemon Sun and Moon features are the Z-Moves. As mentioned in a previous iTechPost article, Z-moves are new elements to the Pokemon battles that the trainer can use once per fight. These are very powerful attacks and are fueled by Z-Crystals. To get Z-Crystals, you would need to travel to Alola and surpass a couple of challenges.

Now, Pokemon Sun and Moon Z-moves have limitations. Some Z-moves are only available to a specific Pokemon while other Z-moves can only take effect once a Pokemon "has a move in their dossier that corresponds with the Z-Crystal they're holding," as explained by USGamer.

How To Perform Z-Move?

In order for you to perform a Z-move, you must have a Z-Ring. You will get this through playing Pokemon Sun and Moon story so don't worry, you won't miss it. And of course, you also need Z-Crystals. Now, there are 18 General Z-Crystals that will correspond with the 18 types of Pokemon. A Pokemon with one of these crystals will be able to unlock a Z-move as long as it knows at least one attack that can match with the Z-Crystal type.

What Do Pokemon Sun and Moon Z-Moves Do?

There are currently nine Pokemon Sun and Moon Z-moves each specific for the Pokemon types. So here they are (deep breath): Breakneck Blitz Z-move is for the Normal-type Pokemon while for the Ghost-type Pokemon, they can use the Neverending Nightmare Z-move. For Fighting-type, All-Out Plummeting is the Z-move to damage their enemy.

You have a Fire-type Pokemon? Then you can utilize the Inferno Overdrive which performs heavy fire damage to its opponent. On the other hand, Water-types can perform extreme water-damage to its enemy with the Hydro Vortex. Grass-type Pokemon boasts off its Bloom Doom Z-move while Electric-types have the Gigavolt Havoc, which inflicts heavy electric-type damage. For Psychic-type Pokemon, the Maximum Psy-Breaker is their specific Z-Move while Ultimate Dragon Burn Z-moves are for Dragon-type Pokemon, of course.
