Triple typing on Pokemon makes my brain hurt a little bit but as for your idea about it being Ice... I can actually see it. The more and more I stare at the picture it does have some icy elements. Zekrom being electric still boggles me to be perfectly honest. There's no true electric motif in his design. Apart from the tail which looks like a sort of generator.

I see an Ice type into Reshiram... and I can imagine Zekrom being a electrice type. I'm honestly wondering what legend they have... Ho-Oh was the master of the legendary beasts, and he searches pure souls. The Regi's presented the ages of man, So I'm really wondering what they will have. Maybe something in line of what Art said? a Simmurgh and a Caladrius legend? I would be very gratefull for some new eeveolutions. Poision, Ghost, Dragon and flying. It would be asome of an Eevolution was the first to be a pure flying type! And why not a normal evolution? with a stage 2 normal evolution to be the boss over the other eevolutions ^^

I'm under the impression Reshiram and Zekrom will be linked in with the whole life and death cycle. With the monotone colour selection of white and black it seems to link in like that. I just expected them to be a bit more akin to that of a lifegiver and a grimreaper. Oh well, perhaps i'm totally wrong. Seems kinda close though, with life being white and death being black. There's also the issue of Zekrom appearing in Pokemon White and Reshiram in Pokemon Black. Whether or not that has any subtle clue is anyone's guess. I hope they give some love to already existing Pokemon that have otherwise sub-par stats. Like, Ariados or Farfetch'd for example. Some of them are way overdue some loving.

Alright fellas, massive update courtesy of Serebii.net! First things first, the region's professor will be a woman, Dr.Araragi. She's a bit of a Christmas cake, if you get what I mean....*tries to ship her and Oak together* And for the good stuff, some Corocoro scans. CHIRAMII. Some Chinchilla-thing. The professor owns one. I don't really care that it might useless, only that I want one. Ridiculously adorable <3 SHIMAMA An electric Zebra with an ability called Motor Drive and an attack called Wild Bolt. Do you really need a better explanation? X3 Definitely on my to-grab list. MEGUROKO A desert crocodile thing which is both ground and dark. I'm sensing an epic evo for this fellow. Don't know if want. MUNNA Honestly, I have no idea WTF this is. Looks like a piggybank. A Psychic one that can use telekinesis apparently. MAMEPATO A pigeon. I guess this is the regional bird? It doesn't look too bad... HIHIDARUMA A Chimchar on steroids. Kidding, It's a fire monkey nonetheless. The psychotic grin scares the shit out of me. GEAR Weirdest thing I've seen yet. Not much if an explanation for this one. Let the discussions begin!

I want that effing crocodile right now.
LOLOLOLOOL THAT FIRE MONKEY IS AWESOME. It so tops the list of sh*t eating grin. Sorry Steelix, shove over!
And holy crap a woman professor.
I bet you a hundred bucks that Chinchilla thing is the new Pikachu/Pachirisu.

The dragons have been confirmed as Fire and electric types are part of their title is yin and yang. I still hope they have a dragon ice type though.

Fire/Dragon.
I have just peed a little.
I never even THOUGHT about the being Yin and Yang. Now my tattoo is even cooler! I was hoping Reshy was part Ice, oh well. ~

This update was quite the bombshell. First of all... Wow, a woman professor? This is most definitely welcome. Just as Cynthia being the Champion in Sinnoh was. ;D Spices things up a little by having women being in those positions instead. It'll be interesting to see what they make her character like. Ara-Oak shipping is a pretty funny idea Dani. Isn't Oak a bit old? ;D
As for the new Pokemon... Hihidaruma is a goddamned beast. I'm definitely going to give him a shot when they release the games. Just love those eyebrows and sh*t eating grin like Dani mentioned. ;D I hope it can learn Taunt for the sake of it. DarkCroc is cool as well. His new ability sounds pretty intriguing. I just hope he has stats to back it up. As for the common bird... I SO HPE I DON'T GET POOPED ON IN ISSHU! D: Gear thing is odd. I bet it evolves and adds a third gear to the ranks. ;D
I'm pretty blown away by Reshiram being a Fire type though. Zekrom kinda looks like he could be electric but Reshiram has no real fiery motifs. Nice new typings though. If anything, they need to add some more variety this generation in typings. Like a Ghost/Grass perhaps. PUMPKINS. ;D

PUMPKINS?
Joey dear, that would have to be jack-o'lanterns. Pumpkins are so last century. o:
I want that freaking monkey for the sake of that grin. And usually I find monkeys quite ugly. He's just made of pure epic win.
I want a gear thing named War. Gears of War, geddit.

All of those guys look so incomplete :/ If the Zebra evolves I have a feeling it will be epic, it's definetly on my list for Pokemon to catch when the games come out. but the Fire/Dragon seems so much like Palkia, everyone thought it was going to be one type and instead it's this really random one But I have a feeling this should be interesting to see the Gyms, I'm rooting for a ground gym with that crock as the main

Pumpkins, jack o' lanterns, its all the same kinda thing. At the end of the day I just want more type variety. I mean, a lot of Pokemon are based off of things in reality so why not make a Fire/Bug fireant Pokemon or something? There's just so much untapped potential. As for the Pokes looking incomplete... I guess they're just base forms. I mean, the Hihidaruma looks fairly alright by himself if he had no evolutions but when you fact in how damn small he is, he's bound to have some evos. I saw an enlarged version of the Isshu region map. Seems like one place has a carnival themed funfair theme going for it. Plus lots of ports, sea and a desert. Hoenn 2.0 maybe?

I think there could be some truth to that, but when I first saw it I had noticed how it looked to be several interconnected islands. So I assume this might feel a lot like the orange islands. Though I assume we know where we can find our little crock friend. But that carnival city is bound to have some very creepy gym, maybe even our first dark gym in the games. But the ape thing is kinda small, im expecting it to be large like Ursaring when it's done evolving, though I think the Chinchilla will only one in that group that does not evolve but I'm with all of you on the "we need more diversity" maybe a Psychic/Poison, I think that would be sweeeeeet

CHIRAMII is so cute... althou I can't shake the feeling it's a pre-evolution. SHIMAMA, I so need one! I love horse things! I wonder if it'll be quicker then rapidash. Maybe it'll have an evolution that becomes a pegasus? (since ponyta became a unicorn) Woohoo female professor!! the first female proffesor that gives out pokemon!
MUNNA: did anyone order a girly togemon? it's got FLOWERS on it's back! And I though Snubbull design was wrong... (thou I just love grandbull!) I hope Munna evolves! Either it has to have some new type combination, or a pure. GEAR looks like to be the magnemite of this generation. Or the Beldum, or the Bronzor. HIHIDARUMA: RUN!!I really don't like his looks.
I'm hoping for a lot of new type combinations, as well as some pure types.

Idk Misty, looks to me as though there will be little other than Munna in it's evolution stage. But I'm wondering with that and the fire piggy, why there are so many pig type pokemon. Or in this case, a Sow and a Boar pokemon :V But the pre-evolution theory seems like a good theory indeed. I'm looking through the pokedex right now and seeing if I can find anything remotely like this little tyke. ... Nope, but maybe you meant something else? I was thinking you were talking about in previous regions I'm my opinion, I think Tarous needs a pre evolution, it's just to... big? powerful? gah idk D: Also, i'm hopeful we can finally use Kengaskans little pouch tyke for battling
