I doubt it, the last preview thing revealed there's 7 trials, so you start in the first island, then do 4/7 trials on the next one and i'd have to imagine the lower right one has the sixth one and the final trial happens on the lower left one just before/after meeting with the version legendary that's in the island.

Nothing has said you do every trial on an island before moving on to the next is the thing. I'd imagine the last trial is actually on the first island, for instance.

Well, then there wouldn't be any trial in the fourth island if a second, final trial happened in the first one. We have already seen the four trial captains of the second island and how 3 of their trials work, so i'm expecting that the ones we haven't seen (much of) yet are the final two on the bottom two islands, otherwise why show over half of the captains at the start if they weren't from the first-ish half of the game.

Team building at this point is also impossible since we don't know anything about the new Pokémon apart from what they look like.

It's kind of funny that now that the new Pokémon have been leaked, the only things that haven't been spoiled yet is the plot... In a Pokémon game.

If Ultra Beasts are catchable (Assuming those Balls are usable and not some dummied out item.) I doubt they're people. That would be a weird and disturbing direction to go in.

I was never really big on the early route mammals (I think Diggersby is the only one I've properly bred and trained), but the Trump meme regarding Yungoos kind of ruined the Pokémon for me at least. If anything I'm looking forward to using Alolan Raticate and Stoutland if I wanted to train a normal typed early route mammal.

Technically it just means you can fight them. Which is of no surprise at all.

It confirms you can fight Kukui and that he has a cool intro animation though.

Doesn't it just confirm he does the catching tutorial?

FFA is battle royale, right? I'm fine with that replacing the other formats so long as there are plenty of them to enjoy in-game and there's an online option for it.

I know this has already been said, but there is no way we won't have to fight these guys later when they tear open dimensions or something to unleash the Ultra Beast queen or whatever.

Really? Like it's all sparkly and gold, but there's a bunch of similar backgrounds that share the same basic design. I like Skull's cut-in more though. The most impressive background is the one we already saw for the first Ultra Beast fight, and that didn't have a team symbol at all.

Wouldn't be surprised if you fight the Aether boss in that weird vortex background thing though.

Oh yeah, or it could mean that. He does get 2 different intros though so maybe only 1's for the tutorial?
