3. A Pokemon you would like to see get an Alola form
Heracross (would say Growlithe but's already there so it probably won't)

Most likely boy for first game. If I get other, then girl for that one.

Ilimia/Lana/Kiawe/Mallow/Sophocles/Acerola/Mina

10. Your initial reaction to USUM's announcement
'Geez, hopefully the chatroom will shut up about Pokken now'
11. An item of clothing you would like to see added to the games
Gloves?
12. Which starter will you choose?
Most likely Rowlet
13. A feature from SM you hope is expanded upon/changed
Trials and Trial captains with a bigger role
14. A Pokemon that you would make into a Totem
Turtonator for Sun, Drampa for Moon

14. A Pokemon that you would make into a Totem
I too think Drampa and Turtonator can be version exclusive totems.

14. A Pokemon that you would make into a Totem

I wanna see a totem Bewear just for the hell of it, lol. It would probably make for a good challenge as well.

1. Your current level of interest in/excitement for the games!

Im fairly excited for the game, but when more details are released, ill be more excited. I was in Gamestop earlier today and I wasnt excited enough to pre-order it, but maybe that will change! I was also disappointed there was no pre-order bonus, such as a poster or exclusive pokemon/item/egg/something.
2. A Pokemon you hope is in the USUM regional dex

I would like Jangmo-o to be available earlier in the game. As for a pokemon outside of gen 7, I think Tropius would be a nice fit!
3. A Pokemon you would like to see get an Alola form

Gen 2 and 4 pokemon!!! Specifically, the gen 2 starters and Sneasel. Ive listed others in other threads as well.
4. Will you play as a boy or a girl?

I have played many different pokemon games, and replayed those same games multiple times. I have never once played as a girl character, so I most likely will play as a girl. I have also never bought any clothing for my characters, and I know girls have more customization options, so yea.
5. A character from SM that you hope returns/gets an expanded role

Lillie! I hope she matures as a result of her experiences in Kanto and returns as a trainer or something. I dont want her to become an antagonist, but I hope she still has something interesting to offer. As well as Gladion.
6. A character from a past gen game you would like to see return

Cynthia. Idk how she would fit, but I want her in the game lol.
7. A rumour that you think/hope is false
I think the rumor that there will be pokemon following us like in gold and silver is false, but I hope its true.

[FONT=&quot]I have a lot of catching up to do it seems! Let's go![/FONT]

1. Your current level of interest in/excitement for the games!
[FONT=&quot]Not really too excited as of yet. I know I will buy them, but I am not excited yet.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
2. A Pokemon you hope is in the USUM regional dex
Corsola! I love it so much.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]3. A Pokemon you would like to see get an Alola form[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Corsola again, or maybe the Johto starters[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
4. Will you play as a boy or a girl?[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Girl, since I heavily identify with the personality and appearances of the female characters more than the male.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
5. A character from SM that you hope returns/gets an expanded role [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Lillie should come back and have Pokemon now! Maybe she could take on the Pokemon Lusamine used and use them for bettering the world than trying to destroy it.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
6. A character from a past gen game you would like to see return[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Honestly, probably Lance. He is a champion, but has never seen the light of day for a long time. Let him shine! Give him some new dragon types![/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
7. A rumour that you think/hope is false[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Honestly haven't seen many rumours, but someone said that there are no new Alola forms, which would SUCK. :([/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
8. A Legendary/Mythical Pokemon that you'd like to see in USUM[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Shaymin ty[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
9. A Pokemon you would like to see made into a Pokeride
Any psychic type. So many possibilities.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]10. Your initial reaction to USUM's announcement[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Complete and utter disappointment. :<[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
11. An item of clothing you would like to see added to the games[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Maybe bandanas, or skater skirts, or peter pan shirts?[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
12. Which starter will you choose?[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Rowlet again. :')[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
13. A feature from SM you hope is expanded upon/changed
Remove Festival Plaza, add in PSS. Also, maybe do more with Poke Pelago.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]14. A Pokemon that you would make into a Totem[/FONT]
Totem Oricorio! I feel like it is overlooked a lot, so it would be beneficial for it.

[FONT=&quot]15. Your planned team for your playthrough[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]No idea as of now, since there are no new Pokemon announcements yet. Probably something along the lines of Corsola, Wigglytuff, Girafarig, Rapidash, Cherrim and Heliolisk if possible.[/FONT]

15. Your planned team for your playthrough

Going to at least use the Popplio line, the gift Rockruff, and a Mimikyu. Other than that, no idea.

15. Your planned team for your playthrough

I only know that I'm having Popplio. Maybe I'll try Pokemon that I didn't use in S/M.

15. Your planned team for your playthrough?

Rowlet, Dewpider, Turtonator, Lycanroc, Stufful, and Comfey.

15. Your planned team for your playthrough

I don't even know which starter I'll choose lol. The rest is a mystery as well.

15. Your planned team for your playthrough
Rowlet, fire type, water type, special rockruff, zygarde and mascot.

15. Your planned team for your playthrough
6 pokemon of varying types

8. A Legendary/Mythical Pokemon that you'd like to see in USUM

Giratina
9. A Pokemon you would like to see made into a Pokeride

Gogoat for sure!
10. Your initial reaction to USUM's announcement

Yay for a new pokemon game, I would have wanted a 3rd version rather than 2 new ones or gen 4 remakes.
11. An item of clothing you would like to see added to the games

Ive never really used this feature, so i wouldnt know. Flip flops for boys i guess if that isnt a thing yet.
12. Which starter will you choose?

Most like Rowlet even tho I used it in SM. I might give it an everstone too because I love its design!
13. A feature from SM you hope is expanded upon/changed

Greater variety in ride pokemon. Even for the same purposes. At least 2 more for each in addition to the originals.
14. A Pokemon that you would make into a Totem

Turtonator and Drampa for US and UM respectively
15. Your planned team for your play through

This is a hard one. Ill do this by final evolutions:

-Rowlet (everstone)
-Alolan Raticate
-Kommo-o
-Alolan Vulpix

-Event Rockruff (maybe- already used a rock ruff in my first play through)
-Dhelmise (maybe- can only get late in the game)
-Palossand (maybe-)
-Mimikyu (maybe)
-Gumshoos (maybe- another normal type)
-Trumbeak (maybe- another normal type)

15. Your planned team for your playthrough

With so little to go on, I can only say Popplio atm. I'll be sorely disappointed if they add no new alolan forms!

13. A feature from SM you hope is expanded upon/changed

Poké Ride. I'd like to see more methods of transport with many more Pokémon.

14. A Pokemon that you would make into a Totem

Araquanid and Golisopod depending on the version you use.

15. Your planned team for your playthrough

Incineroar, Toxapex, Dhelmise, Vikavolt, Shiinotic and Crabominable are some of the Pokémon I'd like to use. I'm just hoping they make the evolutions accessible much earlier on this time.

16. A feature from a past game you'd like to see added

Would love to see the GB Sounds item return, but in a way that lets you play music from across the entire series. If these are the last 3DS games, let's go all out.

16. A feature from a past game you'd like to see added

Since the Gyms rumour looks to be killed off, I'd probably go for something like Entralink. I may not have used it much but would be nice to see another feature that's like it.

16. A feature from a past game you'd like to see added?

DexNav.

It would be a more trustworthy method of finding Pokemon with desired and/or rare Abilities, Egg Moves, and good IVs.

16. A feature from a past game you'd like to see added
Well, I hate to be a normie, but walking with pokemon.
