Starter evolutions will be revealed either late October or early November as they tend to be during release cycles. Early October will be MeleMele trial captains.
 
So I believe Oranguru is the Monk staff that the Riddler hinted and right next to it is the Rugby Monkey

Gen 5 and 6 we're in September so October is more likely either next trailer or within that month plus I don't see why they can't introduce new characters and the starters since Akala Trial Captains, Hala and new Pokemon/forms was both new characters and new Pokemon in 1 trailer.
 
Two riddle solved, I guess? The two primate. I really love them both, though they I hope passimian had a relatively unique type like oranguru.

I hope they still evolve and passimian evo becomes fighting/ground, and the riddler is still correct.. But by the looks of it, they won't.. They seem to mirror the sawk/throh version exclusivity for me. I'm just sad for another fighting monkey..
 
I don't think any leaks featured here were talking about new Eeveelutions but any that were are disproven thanks to Eevee's Z-Move.
 
Not sure if this has been posted, but my friend found this thread.

/vp/ - Come Aboard - Pokémon - 4chan

I personally don't believe most of it because of a couple points, but I thought it was worth sharing.

This is probably fake since there are no Bug-type Pokemon revealed in the latest trailer and the name of Rockruff's evolution is wrong.
 
Also, someone pointed out that one of the shirts for the girls had what appears to be a Toucan on it. Just so you guys know if someone comes out with a Toucan Leak!

Looks like a pretty standard toucan to me though. You'd think a Pokemon would have a more special design.
I would gladly take a toucan pokemon though, I love those birds.
 
Some leaks have been proved wrong, folks! Rugby monkey is real, and you can buy Team Skull clothing! However, the random leaks one is half-wrong and half-right, as it says that it has a baseball mitt, BUT it DOES say you can buy Team Skull clothing.

So, what about that leak?

I rewatched both trailers and I don't see any Team Skull clothing for the PC. You might be confusing the Alolan Marowak shirt with Team Skull's logo.

OK in all seriousness this either means we're getting a Toucan Pokemon or real world animals are confirmed for Pokemon. Either way this is an interesting bit of info. But yeah any leak that only has the Toucan going for it should probably be considered fake. OR anything confirming real world animals in Pokemon as both can be extrapolated from this.

Gen5 had the starter evolutions revealed a matter of days before the game came out. Gen6 had the starter evolutions revealed a month before release. The earliest we'll see Gen7 starter evolutions is late October/Early November.
 
I mean they have a shirt that depicts an Alolan Exeggutor, so I can only assume this dipicts a Pokémon based on a toucan? I don't think there had ever been evidence of real world animals existing in the Pokémon world?
 
Not saying that it isn't a possibility to be a toucan, but if you want me to be honest, it could also be something like a Cherubi or a Bounsweet in a weird angle and cut off by the bag strap. Let's be careful about this...
 
So eevee's Z-move basically confirms that there will be no new eeveelutions in this game. Ohkayyyyy.
 
Guys remember the Pyukumuku helmet? We saw it in a poster before the Pokemon itself was revealed. Considering all the Pokemon themed clothing/accessories we've seen so far I'd say we'll get a toucan Pokemon soon.
 
Update for the answers to the riddles

N4: Rugby monkey is obvious.
Let's talk about Oranguru.
N3: Wu Yong has a nickname 'Zhi Duo Xing'
Zhi = Knowledge
Duo = Much
Xing = Star
So it's always translated as Resourceful Star.
But in Chinese, Chimp/Orangutan and Star share the same pronunciation 'XING' !!!
Wu Yong = Zhi Duo Xing = Orangutan with much knowledge
It's a riddle based on Chinese language lore.
Awesome.
Also the toucan.
