Well, I can read some Japanese, so I can at least tell the Japanese names, and the types... Serebii also have the english names in their news sections, but I guess most of you have already seen that The first one is named Kapu Kokuko, and is electric/fairy The second one (the square bug) is named Denjimushi (literally electric bug), and is bug/electric (Surprise! ) The third one is named Kuwaganon, and is also bug/electric The fourth is Jijiiron, normal/dragon (I'm guessing the jijii is related to 'old man') The fifth is Hagigishiri, water/psychic (the scary fish) The sixth is Aburii, bug/fairy The seventh is Togedemaru, electric/steel

I know that dragon kinda derpy looking but I can't help be be excited over it only because its a dragon type >> I'm biased XD
I don't normally catch those pesky bug types that are always at the very beginning but Grubbins evo Chain may have just changed my mind. I can't wait for more Pokemon Reveals....ESPECIALLY starter evolutions... my fingers are crossed that Poplios isn't stupid looking because I always start with water ;-;

Really liking all these new designs. They're weird but wonderful. And this new beauty today, Salandit! Poison/Fire type and it's ability Corrosion allows Poison on all types, even Poison and Steel. One for Joey's wishlist. Love it's little bandit mask.

Wonder if any other Poison types will get this ability tacked in? It's a really good addition. Next day from Salandit being announced and I love it even more. There's a surge of fan art for it too so i'm happily building up a folder. Favourite new reveal so far.

I think by this point, the new designs have really grown on me. Even Bruxish (not everything has to be perfectly cute, after all, I still find it creepy but it atleast matches those neon type of tropical fish).
A few things floating around at the moment is some "leaked" final evolution starter art (pretty sure it has been posted here already) and that there wont be any Gyms.
Eh.
The idea of that annoys me a little but at the same time, I can see it happening. I cant imagine them cramming eight Gyms into four islands. From the map art, the region doesnt even look that big to begin with but I'll give it the benefit of the doubt until it is actually released. I do think Gyms could still be a possibility, maybe there might even be only four, similar to the Orange Island Leagues in the Pokemon anime. But a part of me is leaning towards these supposed Guardian Pokemon playing a big part. In the E3 clip, the island was holding a festival. Could this podium-battle situation be a Gym replacement? I really hope that they dont drop Gyms though. ;__;

No gyms would be silly. Although part of the rumour was that you construct your own Pokemon League. I'd rather it not, I want all these cool NPCs about. Oh and more new Pokemon designs revealed! No English names of yet but the bear is Kiteruguma and is Normal/Fighting with the abilities Fluffy and Klutz. It's based on a red panda. Goddamn they're adorable. I kinda hope this has a red shiny version. It's also meant to be terrifyingly strong. So much so if you train one your life is in peril and the people of Alola put signs up everywhere warning of their presence. The other (disturbing) design is Mimikkyu (LOL Mimic you) and is Ghost/Fairy. It has the ability called Disguise. Truth be told, I love this design. This creepy Pokemon hates sunlight, preferring dark places. It is rumoured that the cloth covering its body is a strategy to avoid the sun. Don't try to remove the cloth it is said that those that do become afflicted with an illness. Seen some cool names already floating about such as Pikaboo or Mimicreep. Looks to also be based off a Teru Teru Bozu. Although Shuppet fits the bill for that as well as a design inspiration.

though that thing you link last looks more like castforms
though shuppet and castform don't seems like they can mimic that much like this new pokemon.
ghot fairy. so it's weak to steel only? and poison?

Castform does look similar to it but I thought Shuppet/Pikaboo are a little more inspired given the fact kids make those Teru Teru Bozus. As for the typing, it's weak to Steel and Ghost which is pretty damn good. Immune to Normal/Dragon/Fighting too and even resists Bug. I like.

The new designs are growing on me as well, I can't say I like the bear though...Maybe that will grow on me too who knows lol. I'm slowly planning a team out but they keep releasing really unique typings and designs so now its a hard call.
There's been a rumor that this generation will be the last? Even for the Anime? its kinda sad to think about...I know they plan on remaking a few but to just stop completely....they can't lol

I must admit, the bear made me go "Ehhh..." At first but it's already grown on me having seen some fanart of it. I think the official artwork they've done makes it look a bit unappealing.
In terms of rumours. Pffffft. Pretty sure these sort of rumours fly around each new generation. I can certainly remember hearing such talk from generation IV onwards. I think the main thing people need to consider is that Pokemon is profitable. Nintendo/Gamefreak/TPC are in business. Businesses love money. As long as the cash cow keeps the milk flowing, it'll never end.

Speaking of the end, I went to the rumour thread Tiki made and watched that theory video. Whilst the guy was a LITTLE OTT (haha) quite a few of the things he said did make some sense to me, alchemy wise and such. But in all honesty, Pokemon is big money, so I dont think it will "end". If this is the last of the main story, I am sure there will be more spin off games at the very least. But I doubt it'll happen.
A new video, a new video! *dances*
We got some Battle Royal, some crazy poses and a lot of speculation on a 5th move. The coolest part is the Pokemon riding for sure! Though it will likely be limited to a set few Pokes. ;3;
