I'm actually skipping Ultra Sun & Moon and waiting for the Switch Pokémon game.
However, in your case, it all depends on what USM will entail. If it is a follow up to Sun & Moon, then you should get Sun & Moon first. If it's a traditional update version, then skip Sun & Moon and just wait 'til November.

I think it depends if the Ultra games are sequels or two third version games with difference between the two. If it's sequels then play Dun and Moon first.

If you only have enough money for one game, I agree to wait for Ultra Sun. Even if it's a sequel, it's going to the the most up-to-date with all moves, forms, areas, etc. You can always get the story from Sun and Moon from watching a let's play

If you intend to only get one, I would suggest making a decision after we get more information. It is likely that Ultra will be the better game whether it is the same as Sun with some extras or a sequel to Sun.
That is a long time to wait for a new pokemon game! What will you do until then?

As impatient as I am as a person, I can wait. I intended to get a Switch beforehand, anyway, and get ARMS, Breath of the Wild, and couple more games. I'll be good until then.

Skip them both, 8th gen is probably going to be a lot better since it's going to be on much more powerful hardware and in a console environment.

Play Sun or Moon first. Ultra Sun or Ultra Moon in October. Or do research into both (once we have more information on the latter) and choose differently. It's your time and money - it should be your decision, more so than that of random people on the Internet.
The only caveat: don't listen to anyone telling you to skip the generation. You'd be missing out. Definitely play one or the other.

Agreed. Not to mention that Sun and Moon are completely worthy games to purchase if you can afford.
As some have mentioned, I suggest waiting a little bit more until we have a definite idea what USUM are.
If these games are just plain third version, then I'd say wait this game instead. But if these are sequels, then it is highly recommended that you play SM.
I also don't recommend skipping Gen 7, or any generation. We don't even have any idea what Gen 8 is and when it will be out.
It's like someone is recommending you a book that the person haven't even read yet.
Thanks everyone. I am by no means limited to only one game. Although if they're the same story/game (or effectively the same with only very minor tweaks/moves) I'd be inclined to only get one or the other. But I will wait until we have much more information first.
Yeah, I wasn't sure how much info we had on Ultra Sun and Moon yet. Turns out the answer is not very much.

Get both and play Sun first.
Yeah get Sun/Moon and USUM. While technically USUM are updated versions, it seems the story is quite different with many new characters and i feel the original Sun and Moon games had a good story and should be experienced. That is my opinion though.
