I would never! :3 I like plenty to be a surprise when it comes to new games, so I would be sure to keep the gameplay pretty vague even if I need to report my DEAD BOX. I am just so excited for this! Squee! XD
And apparently the next Sun/Moon update will be June 2nd. I really wonder what is going to be shared... O.o

I believe it'll be more info on Legendaries like their types.
Also, due to it being released a month before Christmas, I'll probably have to wait until that day to get it. So, I'll be delayed until late December.

Well, you were correct, Amy! ^^ Yup, June 2nd's updated info was on the official naming release of our box legendaries - which were indeed Solgaleo and Lunala - and their typings, abilities, and their new moves that will be introduced. Also, this update gave a bit more info on the Alola region and on some characters inhabiting it that we will be encountering. One important thing to note on the Professor Kukui is that he says Alola is "chock full of nothin' but rare Pokemon", which only leads me to assume that there is going to be a bigger group of newly seen Pokemon for this generation. Exciting! ^^ This Alola region also looks to be pretty big in comparison to a lot of the other regions we've seen so far, almost like combining the initial landscapes you explore to the post-game landscapes. So here's hoping that we get this great big area to start with and later on have either another post-game place to explore (maybe Kalos?) or just have plenty of little secret spots to find. Another thing was mentioned about the Pokedex being possessed by a Rotom. Looks like Rotom will be a guide of sorts on your adventure, but I reeeeeeally hope that this feature is where we can turn it on or off. For children, this seems like a good idea, you know? But for the more veteran players it would be nice to turn that off just to give us our own exploring pace and not make things super easy. Anyway, here's the website for all this info!

The Pokemon Zygarde is also getting some much needed love in Sun/Moon! I'll post the video in spoilers - since it would be for those that haven't previously watch the anime XY&Z.

In the latest E3 and Nintendo Treehouse announcement, we saw additional footage of Sun/Moon - the videos focused more on the area, some new battle strategies, the Rotom Pokedex, aaaaaaand a few new Pokemon faces! I won't post the whole E3 video, but I will put the new Pokemon with their names in the spoilers and a short video from Youtube. This is Iwanko! A Rock-type puppy! I WANT it! XD This is Nekkoala! It can't be affected by any status except for Sleep! This is Yungoos! One of the first Pokemon you see in the Alola! This is Pikipek! Our first little bird Pokemon! You may or may not have seen this guy already, at least in its early developments, but it's finally revealed and named. This is Grubbin! Wonder what this little bug will become at the end? And that's all for now! I'll try to add new updates as they come. :3

My predictions just in case you want them.
Yungoos will be related to Zangoose in some way (evolution etc.)
Grubbin will evolve into Bug/Electric
Popplio will evolve into a Water/Fighting Strongman-like Pokemon (rumours the starters are based off the circus). It learnt Disarming Voice in the demo so that's either for coverage or it'll become fairy. Still, hoping for water/fighting.
Litten will become Fire/Dark
Rowlet will stay Grass/Flying.
With these dual typings, each pokemon will be 4x weak to the starter it is traditionally weak against.
It looks like they're making these games easier on people. For example, it shows you how good moves are against the opponent, and Hau picks the starter weak against yours. With this in place, your starter will be 4x strong against Hau's.
Although, in the Treehouse demo, Hau led with a Pichu which was strong against the player's Popplio. Now, we don't know if he has a Pichu regardless of starter, or whether or not the pokemon he leads with changes depending on which you picked. That'll be interesting to see.
In other news, I normally pre-make a team based upon a theme. In X/Y I named all my pokemon after characters from Yu-Gi-Oh GX.
Upon consideration I'm gonna name all my pokemon after sonic characters this time around. I have five staples and potential types. The only difficulty is picking the sixth character to be represented. However, it is very early and I need to see all the pokemon before making a full decision.
@_@ So much writing

You may be onto something there with Yungoos... Grubbin a Bug/Electric? Like Joltik/Galvantula. I could see that. But I actually kinda hope they go with another typing. I felt the Bug/Electric made Joltik more unique. I'd hate to see that Pokemon get doused like that. Maybe...Bug/Ground? Since grub and maggots live in the ground? I dunno. XD Yeah, I can see Popplio becoming this beefy Water/Fighting. But that kinda makes me think he'll just look sillier than he already does. That poor Pokemon just isn't getting any love. But absolutely makes sense for it since Rowlet should stay Grass/Flying, and Litten therefore Fire/Dark. I just wish that Litten's last evolution was a Fire/Poison... Just sounds cool. It'd be a new original typing, too. :S I hope that if Hau is going to get the weaker mon against your own, then a better (and hopefully cooler) trainer will get the pokemon stronger than your typing to make up for it, and hopefully put up a challenge. I've been playing Pokemon Red again and Gary could really dish it back to you, especially if you were caught with your team's HP low after long 'dungeons'. I miss that. Good stuff there. I have made no plans for my team. It will be simply as it comes. Besides, I'll likely have plenty different mons in my team when playing the game as a Nuzlocke. I am super excited to do that! ^^

We've got some new Pokemon but unfortunately I'm on 3DS so can't link it.
Might have to change the ideas for my themed team. Too difficult.
Have three pokemon confirmed for my team: Rowlet, Rockruff and Vikavolt!
Tapu Koko looks cool... and Bruxish... Bruxish is frickin awful...
