The starters grew on me after the first few hours. The internet fell in love with the grass owl which is surprising because the Grass Starter is almost never the popular choice. However, I can see myself choosing one regardless, can't wait to see what they evolve into. Fun fact, these three are endangered animals in Hawaii.

Have you seen the trailer? The gameplay looks amazing, graphical capabilities of the 3DS are pretty good. As well as that, we can now see trainers during the battle (Trainer customization has made a return!), I wonder if that hints at something?

As for the legendaries, it may take some time getting used to them. The Sun legendary reminds me of previous lion-like Pokemon such as Entei and Pyroar. As for the Moon legendary, definitely not what I would've expected, people are noting the resemblence between it and Kalos gym leader Olympia. In the anime, she had something to do with the Anistar sundial, I wonder if they'd make a return to Kalos? Did you notice how they seem to have the "universe" inside their heads? Just noticed this when someone posted on Twitter.

I'm excited to explore the new Alola region (really subtle with that name). People believe that it's going to be divided into eight islands, each with one gym. The starting island was shown in the trailer as well.
