Poster (edit - changed to better quality version). Rainbow hair girl is shown prominently, but her face is obscured, which really makes her seem even more mysterious.

Adamant translated it:

Lugia surfaces!!!!!!!
The true identity of the mysterious shadow we could see in the teaser... was the legendary Pokémon Lugia!!!
Blurb: Both the Pokémon that was gliding over Satoshi and the shadow on the water surface were Lugia!

The Lugia that has appeared many times in movies already is back!!
Lugia has appeared in past movies, acting as Satoshi's ally. How does it get involved in our tale this time around?!

Pocket Monsters the Movie: "The Explosive Birth of the Mythical Pokémon Lugia"
When it first appeared, it was under the moniker of The Mysterious Pokémon "X". It created a lot of public interest by appearing in the movie prior to its appearance in a video game.

Pokémon the movie XY: "The Archdjinni of Rings: Hoopa"
It appeared as a representative of "Pokémon Gold/Silver"!

The Legendary Pokémon Lugia
Species: Diving Pokémon
Type: Psychic/Flying
Height: 5.2m
Weight: 216kg

Does this movie follow in the same vein as last year's movie, with Lugia holding the key to the tale just like Houou did last year?!

Pay extra attention to Lugia this year!
Next issue we'll announce an important scoop on Lugia!!

Either a lot of these people aren't that relevant or there's a really big supporting cast. Rainbow Girl has an Eevee, lots of Johto Pokemon too. Honestly I'm really surprised by no Zeraora since Hoopa and Diancie were both revealed about this early, but then again those both had alternate forms that saw reveals later on, and Zeraora presumably won't have that, so maybe they want to save it for April or so like Marshadow.

Apparently the subtitle for the movie is "Everyone's Story."

Edit - Serebii's blurb with names and stuff:

"In the trailer, it shows a large city and Lugia flying over. It showcases the new girl, Lisa and her Eevee, a performer called Kagachi and his Sudowoodo, a weak researcher called Torito and his Chansey, an elderly trainer called Hisui with a Togepi, Totodile, Smoochum & Marill and a mysterious girl called Rarugo before it pans to Ash with Lugia flying over and meeting all the other trainers."

Edit2 - New poster (currently not the best quality)

Edit3 - 3 unknowns in the first merchandise listings

Betting now that one of them will be Eevee.

The official Pokémon movie website has updated. Translations follow:

This summer, the emotional tale "Everyone's Story" will have an explosive birth,
following in the footsteps of "I Choose You!"

Once a year, a "wind festival" is held in Fura City, the city where people live together with the wind. While the ancient belief that the legendary Pokémon Lugia will appear and bring about the blessed wind on the final day of the festival still exists, the people that gather in the city participate in the festival while wrapped in their own thoughts......

Lisa, the highschooler and Pokémon rookie.
Kagachi, the braggart that just can't stop telling tall tales.
Trito, the timid researcher that lacks confidence.
Hisui, the old eccentric that hates Pokémon.
Largo, the mysterious little girl that hangs around in the forest all by herself.

These are the people that Satoshi and Pikachu meet.
That meeting makes everyone's story start moving forward.

SATOSHI
A boy aiming to become the world's greatest Pokémon Master.

LISA
A highschooler and Pokémon rookie.

KAGACHI
A braggart that just can't stop telling tall tales.

TRITO
A timid researcher that lacks confidence.

HISUI
An old eccentric that hates Pokémon.

LARGO
A mysterious little girl that hangs around in the forest all by herself.

LUGIA
The legendary Pokémon that brings the blessed wind to the city.
