Other rumors regarding the upcoming Pokemon game include the Pokemarts makeover. Apparently, the creators are planning on having a modern and cleaner design than that in the previous Pokemarts. There is also a possibility that it will get a water gym in a tropical place with palm trees in the landscape.

Another speculation about the new face of Sun and Moon is that vehicles can be carried by the trucks or it is possible that the new vehicles are mixed with Pokemons. Plus, the Pokemon Centers will have a revamped look that resembles a tropical hut that further hints at the tropical location. Lastly, there are also rumors that there will be a new bird-like Pokemon.
