Pokemon Sun and Moon look very good :p This actually might be a Pokemon game that I'll want to get. I wonder what new features/pokemon/ and especially the story it will have. I was so surprised when I first saw the announcement of the game >.<
If I were to choose one, it'd be Pokemon Moon :D

The heck do you mean they look good? We've seen literally next to nothing about them, besides the logo and the Blastoise Fire Brigade ._.

Well, looking at the concept arts of the game...

The hype is real. I like that they chose to make 2 new games instead of a third game (Z), I know it's their usual style, but it's actually a ripoff to the ones who buy the inferior versions. Also, I'm excited about the game because it'll be the first pokemon gen that I'll get to play as soon as it's released :D.
Also, since it's a new gen, I'm expecting the graphics style will change a little from ORAS and XY, which makes it more interesting that playing another game of the same style as Z would be.

I'm very excited! ^^

The blastoise car could be firefighters, the mobile pokemon center is probably an ambulance of sorts, and the other cars are something xP I find it odd yet exciting that in our first look they should us that, it'd be cool if we got a chance to be a firefighter or take care of pokemon as minigames :3 Hopefully they add fun side-things.

As for the new pokemon it looks like Fletchling xD And people hoping for Z should still have hope, I think it's still coming. ;)

I think it will probably be set in Hawaii. I can't remember where but I saw it in a video I think where the guy said that the yellow fire trucks are like fire trucks in Hawaii. The Vivillon pattern being traded in the video can only be gotten in Hawaii. In the picture of the fountain and the building there is a palm tree.

If this does have nothing to do with Kalos and is it's own region/generation, this is what I'd like to see and I'm being realistic.

- 100+ New Pokemon - as many agree, the 6th gen had too little new Pokemon which made the older gen pokemon overshadow them.
- Fewer Mega Pokemon (10-12 max) - There's too many mega Pokemon and I feel it's losing it's charm and rarity.
- Different gym types - no more Rock, Ice, Electric gyms these types have been used in almost every generation.
- Interesting rivals - I'd love for there to be actual rivals who aren't your friends.
- Longer story line - EVERYONE wants this, X/Y was waaaaaay too short.
- A good, longer post story - A battle frontier or something.
- Contests/Showcases - Not everyone enjoys them, but I do, it adds something extra to do in the game, adds more fun.
- A bad***** champion - It'd be cool to have a champion that is a bad guy who is really strong (hence being the champion) all the champions have pretty much been the same person in a character sense.
- Proper Pre/Evolutions - I don't want Mega Pokemon to take away this and I feel it has, I always liked seeing new pre/evolutions of past gen Pokemon, extending their evolution line.
- Trainer customization - Gamefreak would be stupid to get rid of this, they know we like this feature (Though in one of the scenes in the trailer, I saw the inside of the pokecenter/mart and there looked to be concept art of changing rooms)
- New items/Pokeballs - It's been a while since we had a new Pokeball.
- New amusements - Introduce contests like Johto's bug contests, something like this would be cool.
- Friend Safari - Bring it back, but introduce more more than 3 Pokemon to everyone's friend safari.

I had a thought. Since we all know about the 100% Zygarde form, Volcanion and about how it has no event in the game, and Magearna, I thought that Sun and Moon could be like the direct sequel to the XY games. Kinda like how Black and White 2 continued the story, but with connection more like GSC/HGSS. Meaning, access to Kalos. Or, it could be just a post game thing. That's just my own speculation of a possibility, though.

I'm surprised they only announced it now when its being released later this year, I hope they get an exact release date soon. I hope they are gen 7, I'm looking forward to a new set of Pokémon. Gen 6 was surprisingly good (Talonflame, Greninja and Aegislash to be specific) but there just wasn't enough new Pokémon to keep the games exciting for long.

As far as the titles are concerned they could lead in many directions. My initial thoughts were a fire (sun) and water (moon) legendary because of heat and the moons effects on tides. But I honestly think fire legendries are overdone. I think it would be a good idea if Pokémon sun had a grass legendary as the sun effects plant growth.
Also, some Pokémon can only evolve at night and day so maybe the game might include something to do with that?

I really hope that they make more mega evolutions *cough* Mega-Luxray *cough* and make some gen 6 mega's.

It would be cool if they could bring back the battle frontier again like in DPP, I really didn't like the battle maison in XY. The battle frontier is just so much more challenging and fun.

They should let us walk with Pokémon like in HGSS, that was a really fun feature and it would be nice to do that again.
Overall I'm really excited and think it can be a really good game, looking forward to receiving more updates on it.

I came up with this rad theory, it's codename was Pokemon Rainbow I believe, Rainbow has 7 colors, there are 7 regions now (thanks to Sun n Moon) and this is the 7th generation in the trailer they "1996 1999 2002 2006 2010 2013 AND now in 2016 it all comes together as Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon" What do they mean by that?

I saw it :) I am still sad the made this, because in my opinion it's a bad idea making those games, in my opinion they could make remakes for Diamond and Pearl, and I don't really like the Gen 6 and 5 Pokemons, like Garbage Pokemon? Key - Chain Pokemon?!
Pokemon usually has the format of first, a main series game, than a remake, at least for the past couple gens.

I loved the Sun/Moon names introduced here, i personally was always fascinated with the real life sun/moon asthetics i think there could be something deep in those games related to space to, its probably way to soon to choose what version to go but im inclined for moon version for now, that may very well change as they show the exclusives.

That looks a lot like Starly to me, if you make the top of it a lot more black. Although to me, that's a good thing - Starly is honestly one of my favourite Pokemon of all time, let alone flying types you get near the start of the game (and can easily train to be your #1 bird fly me around the region bird thing).
