Apologies if this was already discussed earlier in the thread, but something interesting that I noticed during the direct was that when the new regis and birds were being shown off, the voiceover said something along the lines of "new legendary Pokemon" and not "regional variants" so I'm assuming that these will be entirely new 'mons.
The two Regis being new Pokémon altogether is pretty certain, since they match up with that half-and-half colored temple, and the trailer shows separate brown, blue, and gray temples for Regirock, Regice, and Registeel.
Personally I think the birds might still be variants, but it's up in the air right now.
