Game Freak and Pokemon definitely delivered. Oh yeah I highly suggest everyone to watch the Japanese trailer first and the English one for a simplified version. I'll update everything into the timeline as we go later today and later this month.
So thoughts in order:
1) Alola Region: Basically Hawaii confirmed or one of the main islands at least. Honestly not surprised by this given the amount of "good evidence" we had from last year and even in XY. The overworld is amazing imo with proportional characters instead of the Chibi style characters from XYORAS and more realistic. We only got a glimpse of the battle scene but in do time.
2) The Starters: Honestly... they will grow on me. Litten will be my first Gen 7 Fire type starter since it reminds me of this cat my aunt owns and its the most polished. The owl grass starter Rowlet is a fine edition as well while the Water-type starter Popplio is meh to me.
3) Character Customization: At first I didn't care too much about it, but after playing "Brendan/May" with the same outfits for like almost year and a half, definitely like to see some variety for sure. Still don't know if there are different outfits or equal amount of clothing options for both male/female, but I expect Pokemon will do so.
4) The Legends: I think the lion legendary is a bit over-design, but fine if its going to resembles the "sun". The moon legendary is fine as well, but can't figure what's its based on like maybe a bat.
5) The Trailer: OK...The Japanese trailer was amazing and everyone please watch it soon.
