* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ayJvMf--68Q This trailer]]. While we already knew that Pokémon could directly attack Trainers in this game, the trailer plays up the terror that would come from such a violent encounter for all it's worth. The trailer shows a lone Survey Corps member wandering a snowy mountain observing Pokémon before going too far into the mountain trying to see more, and then suddenly getting attacked by ''something'' [[NothingIsScarier that the viewer never sees or hears beyond a growl and heavy footsteps]]. What's worse is that [[UncertainDoom we don't hear from the poor Trainer again afterward]], leaving his fate a complete mystery to the viewer. The horrendous film quality of the man's Arc Phone doesn't help, either, making the whole thing seem like something out of ''Film/TheBlairWitchProject''. The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEb9gbJUUeA full version of the trailer]], with clearer footage, ''does'' reveal that the incident was a little less harrowing in context; it's clear the Trainer escaped any serious harm, and the strange force that attacked him was actually an illusion made by a Hisuian Zoroark trying to keep him from getting too close to their Zorua child. But the point about being careful around Pokémon in this region (especially ones you don't recognize) is clearly made.
