Pokémon Sun & Moon - Coverage Day 1

With many parts of the world getting their copies tomorrow, it would be remiss of us to hold off until launch when so many of you hunger for information. As such, our usual discoveries shall begin. As usual, I'll be posting the main focal points here, while more in-depth details go on the discovery thread on the forums (including some details I won't post here). If you want to remain unspoiled, do not click the spoiler tag, nor visit the Sun/Moon section until you have your game. Don't worry as blatant spoilers will NOT be on the home page.
