The wait for the two new role-playing video games of The PokÃ©mon Company and developer Game Freak is almost coming to an end. "PokÃ©mon Sun" and "PokÃ©mon Moon" are both going to be released this November; but even before it could hit its way out, details regarding the game have been divulged ahead.

Latest reports reveal that the games will be adding in special moves for its Alola versions of PokÃ©mon. Recently, it was announced that the Alola Exeggutor will be equipped with a new special power called the Dragon Hammer.

Fans were previously teased that the Alolan Exeggutor can only smash its head on the ground as one of its attack. More than that, nothing else has been revealed, but as noted in Forbes, Japanese "Cat Mario Show" aired an episode wherein it showed the Alolan Exeggutor with the Dragon Hammer attack. It boasted its new move by hitting an Exeggute in just one hit.

Reports also say that the Dragon Hammer is potentially a physical version of the Draco Meteor, which is a special attack with a base power of 130. The downside of this special attack, though, is that even if it deals a lot of damage to the opponent, the Special Attack stat of the user during the duration of the fight gets decreased.

Speculations suggest that it could be the same thing for the Dragon Hammer but instead of the Special Attack stat, the user's Attack is reduced. Meanwhile, for those who are wondering if the new move is similar to the Wood Hammer, reports say that it is but just a different version.

In other news, there are rumors going around saying the Mega Evolution will be included in the game. This feature first debut in "PokÃ©mon X and Y" and if fans are lucky, this will also appear in "PokÃ©mon Sun" and "PokÃ©mon Moon." But nothing has been confirmed yet, so it's best to take these reports with a pinch of salt.

"PokÃ©mon Sun" and "PokÃ©mon Moon" will be released on Nov. 18 and will be available for the Nintendo 3DS.
