Few random thoughts about the trailer
The Lycanroc cutscene looks like it could be Totem entering a battle
Thing is Olivia is a kahuna, not a rock captain and even if she wasnt a kahuna she's to old to be a captain. So who's tial is this?
Mimikyu seems to be outsideof the megamart so possibly ghost trial is now on the cemetary?
Unless these are just new exclusive z-moves (yay... everybody loves those, right...?)
We dont see ANY old characters which iis a bt weird. We only see a female trial guide at the Pikachu infested ranch. Does that mean there's a Pikachu exclusive trial?

>she's to old to be a captain
Don't be an idiot.
>>32882736
So how old do you think she is?
>>32882715
My guesses are
>Pikachu ranch is a trial site, Togedemaru in the trailer is its Totem.
>Lycanroc is a trial on Ten Carat Hill
Not sure about Mimikyu
>>32882755
>>Lycanroc is a trial on Ten Carat Hill
But who' the captain?

It seems like the games have some shaders now
>>32882715
Z moves
>>32882784
The already had shaders since XY with the ones SM added only serving to make the lighting worse but okay
Trials are gone, Gyms are in, Totems are now just part of regular story events
>>32882742
17 of course
>>32882817
But in gen 6 and 7, the pokemon are still bright even during night
Maybe the Totem gives you a specific Z crystal for that totem, while you must defeat the captain/kahuna to get the z crystal of the type.
Ex. you beat Totem Lycanroc to get "Lycanrocium Z", then you beat Olivia to get "Rockium Z".

In case you're asking; yes, I do have to point that out.
>>32882847
Shitty lighting and shading choices =/= no shaders are present
Also I was just talking about the shitty softglow effect SM added to the game when talking about how it made the lighting worse, but I checked both just now to make sure I wasn't talking out of my ass and SM actually did remove the slightly darker shading XY/ORAS had at night in battle, wow

>Unless these are just new exclusive z-moves
Come on, look at these cutscenes, that's not like z-moves at all
>>32882715
>We dont see ANY old characters which iis a bt weird
Because they're fag and don't want to show us anything really meaningful
>>32883267

>>32883267
>>32883270
yeah, that's obvious
>>32882856
Doubt it, it would feel pointless to do that because these moves are so specific. Why would you care for a Lycanroc stone if you dont use it in your party? Getting it from a NPC sure but a whole trial?
>>32883270
Question is where is that. Because it looks like either UlaUla route 12 or nearby or Poni
I think they're both Z-moves

One of the "leakers" said that Ilima's trial was going to be relocated to Ten Carat Hill... Why he'd switch from a Normal to a Rock specialist is beyond me, but there's that.
Lycanroc could be a Pokemon of a plot important character, and so would be Mimikyu.
Or maybe they are totems of all new trial captains.
