Suddenly decided I didn't care and looked at leaks. Surprise. I don't care. I like most of what I'm seeing though. The last few Alolans are a little weak though. Also weak: the fact that there's so few of them, and of the new Pokemon in general. Like, literally just one Alolan line not officially revealed? I'm pretty confident in assuming now that GF plans to pull an ORAS and reveal absolutely all this stuff before release. Not like there's that much left.

But what's there is good and what's good is good with me.

Lots of cool mons. Lots of cool shinies.

Actually, finally, have a decent amount Pokemon I want to use. Feeling Popplio, Midnight Lycanroc, Wimpod, that one cucumber, and of course Salandit.

Salandit was my favorite Gen VII Pokemon, and thankfully, I like Salandit's evo. Though I do kinda wish it kept Salandit's color scheme. And maybe stayed on four legs. It's still pretty good. I do also wish that it was a Pokemon with gender differences, just so I could have two of them on my team, but it doesn't look like we're getting any of those this gen. Kinda disappointing. After Meowstic introduced the idea of different genders having different abilities and movepools and such I would have expected them to do more with it this gen, but...oh well.

Though it's possible it's a gender-locked form like Vespiquen, in which case I would definitely use a male Salandit regardless.

I'm honestly shocked that the rumor/leaks about Lunala and Solgaleo having prevos turned out to be true, but I don't mind it at all. Provided they are really prevos and not just different forms. A little hard to know. My only worry is that they probably still can't breed, and as a living dexer that may get tricky...

Anyway, I hope to god the UBs really are catchable, because they look sick and I want them. And because if they're not this gen at most has only 73 Pokemon. Which would be kinda lame. Let me catch them all, Game Freak!
