Speculate on what the new buildings are

A, B and D might be indoor Trials, or gyms, or just another new feature soon to be announced

>>33359023
A is probably a team skull house, along with the one you missed which is a remodel of an existing building.
B is literally a shed.
C is something similar to the Casteliacone vendor in B/W, but for the beach. It's a refreshment tent.
D is Ryuki's replica of his dad's best friend's gym, conveniently located right next to the tourist attraction town of Johtotown(tm)
E actually has something nobody has talked about, which is the inclusion of another chinese-lookin entrance/exit to the town.

>>33359023
C: Dive mini areas where you can look for treasure and deep sea pokemon

>>33359077
i like this one

I got a complex theory about (C) and an very good explanation why there are only five tiny pop-up tents and why Akala only has one pop-up tent but you guys wouldn't believe it for a second...

>>33359023
C are tutors

>>33359201
Nope, they are a tourist attraction because they are all right next to hotels. Those cannot possibly be tutors.

>>33359206
>ORAS move tutors were at the Battle Resort, a tourist area, in stalls similar to these ones
I'm not sure I follow your logic

>>33359206
Third version always got move tutors, they can just make a random NPC placed anywhere on the map be the move tutor regardless of buildings.

>>33359244
Like Hawaii, people travel to Alola for a vacation. There not gonna put something like move tutors in those pop-up tents when they are right next to hotels. That wouldn't make any sense.

Battle Resort is a different thing. You already had hotels/huts for vacationing on the island.

>>33359206
Your logic is like that of a menaly challenged kid.
not only doe what you say make no sense "tourist attraction" but you give the stupidest argument for your ass-pull.

>>33359261
>>33359261
You want some logic, here's your logic. Didn't want to say this...

Pop-up tents on beach areas are next to hotels. Obvious that it's something that tourists can enjoy.

There for that little place that ORAS and SM is pushing down our throats with clues, The Battle Frontier.

There are five pop-up tents. Why doesn't Akala have two pop-up tents for six total? Let me explain...

Because it's something that goes up to five. I can answer that, there for five battle tents in pop-up canopy form. Tower and Dome get battle tents. Pike and Pyramid are the only ones unable to work in a battle tent, that makes five total. Battles take place on the beach.

There in pop-up canopy form for a reason. It's to hide the existence of the Battle Frontier until the proper time. If they put in regular sized Battle Tents from Hoenn, the secret would be already blown.

Why is the hell is that cloud on the bottom of the new Alola map rectangular like the Battle Frontier?

>>33359077
hah, in your dreams. it's going to be something completely shit and pointless like an npc that tells you what day it is tomorrow.

>>33359291
Only one of them is next to a hotel though, the other two are next to Motels, which isn't exactly a tourist thing, more of a temporary housing thing, as seen by Gladion, Looker, Anabel etc.

>>33359316
Where else could they fit? All the empty lots were taken up by Alola Photo Club, Vermilion Gym Clone, and other shit.

>>33359195
tell us anon we'll only judge a little bit

>>33359372
>>33359291

There are numerous 'ocean activity' tents in Hawaii near the sea, where tourists can go to access scuba diving, snorkelling, etc.

They are going to let you explore tiny little areas under the water (imagine a small Dive spot from RSE). A little bit of grass for pokemon, some coral, some crystal blue water.

The Rotom Camera has opportunities to take photos down there too.

You'll find Corsola, Mareanie, Wailmer and some other pokemon like Clamperl line, Horsea, etc.

It'll allow players to add more Water-types to their teams earlier in the game. And crucially, it's the most basic bitch lazy way to add new areas to Alola... and we know Gamefreak are lazy mofos.

Screencap me, remember I said this.

>>33359448
Will they after IGN saying "7.8, too much water," in ORAS? Why do you think SM has little water areas where you can surf?

>>33359448
Like in this 'leak'. Huh.

>>33359448
Good theory. One problem, there are five huts/tents. If it was for diving activities, there would just be one hut/tent on each island like Akala. So your looking at five of something.

The buildings in E look like the Rotomdex. No idea what it could be though, maybe something like the Battle Tents from Emerald?

>>33359448

you give GF too much credit. those are most likely just tents that are set up so you can purchase move tutor moves.

>>33359622
Anon plz, where have you been? those are for the photo club stuff

E are obviously the places for the photo shit.

>>33359745
I have the same thought that those have something to do with the move tutors.

>>33359785
If I'm honest with you, I had completely forgot the photo stuff existed. I should probably start paying more attention to the trailers.

>>33359795
It wasn't in a trailer.

>>33359795
The photo stuff was from a Gameinformer interview vid.

they are porn studios

>>33359023
C is Move Tutor tents. Compare them to the huts on the Battle Resort in ORAS.

>>33359527
you can always spot an easy fake whenever they drag colress into the mix.

>>33359077
The addition of a school of Wailord to the map might be a hint for a diving pokeride so I could see that happening

>>33361150
Why? That 'leak' aside, I'm assuming Colress will have a more prominent role. No?

>>33359260
>Like Hawaii, people travel to Alola for a vacation. They're not gonna put something like move tutors in those pop-up tents when they are right next to motels
Except these aren't people, they're Pokémon trainers.

>>33359291
>Battle Frontier
Game Freak have explicitly said they literally cannot be bothered to create the Battle Frontier. Please, just get over it.

>>33359527
>Totem Mandibuzz
So random that it makes sense, but we see her in the trailer doing her Z-Move dance in a cave, not on the golf course.
>Lillie doesn't steal Nebby at the beginning
Makes sense since we now know that for some reason we get the starters on Route 1 this time.

>>33359023
A and B are probably nothing noteworthy, not worth speculating IMO
C I agree is probably a scuba thing
D I think this may be where the Vermillion Gym is. Kukui and Guzma talk about the Indigo League in Malie Garden which is why it's here.
After the Elite 4, it becomes some sort of post-game facility perhaps and spawns a different Kanto gym for every streak or some shit?
E Obvious

B is potentially a move tutor location since it's located near the battle royal arena

>>33359527
>Troublesome Totem Mandibuzz
Holy shit.
In the first reveal trailer, we saw Mimikyu leaping out of a wooded area and I believe this will be the Totem for the trial with all the Pikachu.
Mandibuzz is not found on Akala Island, and Mimikyu is currently exclusive to Ula'Ula...so what if part of the USUM plot is that Pokémon are migrating between islands and causing disturbance?
It also fits in with the Alola Form phenomena.

>>33359023
A: Battle Frontier
B: Battle Frontier
C: Battle Frontier
D: Battle Frontier
E: Battle Frontier

I think the Beach Houses being rental spots for diving gear could actually be possible, look at the huge amount of Pokemon in the Alola dex that are based off Deepsea or Seafloor creatures
(Toxapex,Golisopod,Lanturn,Starmie,Cloyster,etc)

I dont think the huts are move tutors because the top one has a sign next to it, so it's probably marking something special
