Pokemon Sun and Moon Alolan forms
#2
I'm adding one that I somehow missed and one pre-emptively.

Marowak's ghost type form is most likely a reference to the original Marowak ghost from the first four Pokemon games and their remakes (namely Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Fire Red and Leaf Green). In those you had to face a Marowak's ghost in the Pokemon Tower, a creature that had put a curse on the place due to Team Rocket's horrible deeds, one of which ended in the death of this pokemon.

Here's the official page on the Sun and Moon website: http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-ca/pok...n-marowak/

Here's a picture:

Here's another picture (from Fire Red and Leaf Green):

And to top this off, here's an entire Bulbapedia page on literal ghosts in the series: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Ghost_(literal)

And for the hell of it, here's Marowak's ghostly form mentioned.



This is one that is just a theory of mine but the Alolan Meowth being dark type could be a little nod to the whole Team Rocket's Meowth thing and the Dark Persian from the TCG (which coincidentally debuted in the Team Rocket set).

The two variations of the Persian card:

Coincidentally Rocket's Meowth had his own card, too.

Oh yeah, here's the source on the Persian: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/D...Rocket_42)

Now I'm just waiting for the Alolan Persian to be announced for this to make even a bit more sense.
