Around how long is the Rainbow Rocket plot? Looker sideplot length? Delta episode?

RR: Each team leader gets their own room in their HQ with some goons outside guarding. They all take their time doing some exposition, then get sent back home. Guzma seems to have someone in a choke hold at one point.

Looker side plot hasn't changed. The full explanation text seems to only cover the same 5.

Yeah on the later, I was just asking if the RR sideplot is more like the length of the XY and Gen 7 Looker sideplots or a little longer than that like the Delta episode.

I'm not playing, so I can't say. I would guess its closer to looker events.

On a related note, Mina greets the player in seafolk village.

Can I just say I love how weird all the Looker stuff has gotten and how he keeps recurring. Especially now that there are two of him running around.

All right, then! I�m going to give your Trainer Passport the super-special stamp I�ve been holding back this whole time! Here we go! Bam!
I really want to reward you somehow for your mastery in Pok�dexing! Let�s see what I can dig out of my pocket... Boy, I feel like a Picker-Upper! My Secret Base was Gold Rank, by the way. And...ta-da! It�s a Shiny Charm! Just having one of these makes it more likely that you�ll encounter Shiny Pok�mon!
And that�s not all! Here�s a little something special that would go well on a tireless Trainer like you, who�s been running all around Alola to fill your Pok�dex!
You received a set of the Karate Gi Jacket and Karate Gi Pants!
And that�s not all! Here�s a little something special that would go well on a veteran Trainer like you, who learned Alola inside and out to fill up your Pok�dex!
You received a set of a Pok�mon Center Nurse Cap, a Pok�mon Center Nurse Top, and a Pok�mon Center Nurse Skirt!

That's pretty neat.

Man there's some pretty big changes in that leaked script. Kinda hard to find though because its got all the regular sun and moon script in there as well in random places so it's hard to know what goes where and what's actually changed.

I'm glad that the captain who always tells lovely lies is the one who swerves the player with a new Totem Pokemon. Unless the others do too and I missed it in that script.

Necrozma: Bahamut Forme

edit: [*]Ultranecrozium Z is a Z-crystal that transforms Necrozma fused with Solgaleo or Lunala into a new form.
[*]Ultra Necrozma is Psychic/Dragon type with a base stat total of 750.
[*]The signature move associated with Ultra Necrozma comes with the following flavour text:
"This attack inflicts Attack or Sp. Atk damage, whichever stat is higher for the user, Necrozma. This move ignores the target's Ability."
