So, in today's trailer we saw that the Totem Pokemon you can fight---Gumshoos and Lurantis being two of them---can summon ally Pokemon to assist them. I assume for example Lurantis will probably summon Fomantis who can help it out with Leaf Guard, or it might summon a partner to use Sunny Day so that it can use its solar-powered moves faster.
One thing the site adds is that these are specifically called "SOS Battles", and claims that other Pokemon are also capable of doing such an action. Furthermore it also mentions SOS Battles open up "sophisticated combos", which possibly hints that it could be a new battle mechanic that the player themselves can use, possibly in the competitive scene even.
Thoughts on this? This seems like a bigger possible shake-up than Z Moves to me.
