I really dig the fact he's the only gothic grass type leader. Especially the fact he lives in a beautiful happy town full of flowers but makes deliberately dark depressing art of them. Like just surrounded by cheerfulness but holes up in his studio to make miserable sculptures of Sunflora. What a loving nerd I love it.

RIP Rock types I guess? Its kind of funny its the only type that apparently doesn't get a dedicated type specialist in the game.

If we include the Titan Pokemon then there's

Rock, Steel, Flying, Dragon, and Ground I think.

Rock's covered by Klawf.

I just noticed that guy is not wearing long pants with two zigzag stripes and one straight stripe across the legs. He is wearing tight leather shorts and thigh-high leather boots, which together reveal a sliver of his thighs.

I think the boots are attached to the jacket and the belt is around the jacket?

Youngster Tristan, one of the first trainers you fight in the game shows up

Ryuki also shows up from time to time, and in USM runs a Kantonian Gym based off of Surge's

Poke Kids are currently only Sinnoh/Galar natives

And one of the best-animated Z-Moves in the series, which...never actually deal any damage to the opponents they're used on (Umbreon shrugs it off, and all anything does to Guzzlord is push it around and make it scream like a Japanese man)

It would be a deep disappointment if fashion was so limited after last gen's fashion was so robust. I had a lot of fun making trainer cards!

It's hard to say though. Game comes out next month and they've been way more tight lipped about it than they have in past gens as far as I remember. Like by now we should know what the starters' evolutions look like and be aware of more than like 10 new Pokemon, at the least.

But instead we keep getting teased by short trailers.
