A game clip provided by the Japanese magazine V- Jump teased how players could earn money by just throwing the water sea cucumber type Pokémon Pyukumuku back into the ocean in the Nintendo 3DS Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon versions. The part-time job allows players to pick up the Pokémon found loitering on the sand and put it back into the ocean.

The Pyukumuku likes to come back for the same spot on the sand it is previously placed to eat. But if the Pokémon runs out of food, it will just stay on its place until it starves. With this, the residents of Alola pitied the Pokémon and devised a funding to help the Pyukumukus. They offer money for players who will perform goodwill towards the Pokémon and release it back to the ocean.

Players are advised to be wary while helping the Pyukumukus as some wild Pokémons may attack while trainers are walking on the sand. The Pyukumukus also come back on the same spot a while after tossing it at the ocean as reported by Siliconera. Trainers can take this advantage for money-making and could just come back on the Pyukumukus spot to earn some cash.

The Pyukumuku is not the only Pokémon who are teased for the Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon versions that is found at the Alola islands. Among these are the Pokémons Crabrawler, a fighting-type Pokémon, Sandygast and evolved form Palossand, which are ghost and ground-type Pokémons, and Stufful and evolved form Bewear, which are also fighting-type Pokémons, as reported by Forbes.

The Pokémon Sun and Moon versions are the first installment for the seventh generation type of Pokémons that would be introduced in Nintendo 3DS. The RPG are set to be released on Nov. 18 in Japan and North America and Nov. 23 in Europe in time for Pokemon's 20th anniversary. These versions also sport an additional power for the Pokémons to use known as Z-moves and can only be used once as reported by the publication.

For the meantime, players could check out the game clip provided by V-Jump through GameXplain where a trainer is seen talking to a resident then proceeded on helping the Pyukumukus get back on water.
