How To Get Greninja

Ash-Greninja now available!

From Pokémon XY & Z, Greninja makes a special appearance in the trial version of Pokémon Sun and Moon. When the trial version comes out, there’s a limited event that allows you to get this Pokémon and make him a member of your party. Because of being Water/Dark type, Greninja proved to be a valuable member of the party and also helps in filling up your Pokédex for your new journey!

But this is no ordinary Greninja. When you activate it’s special Battle-Bond ability, it transforms into the Ash-Greninja from the Pokemon XY & Z series!
