A moment of silence for all the Oranguru who will be nicknamed "Harambe".

Pure Rock for both Lycanroc forms was unexpected, as was its Midnight Form retaining both of Rockruff's Abilities, while the Midday Form was the one that had one change. Who'd have thought that, huh?
Passimian (brilliant play on prosimian, by the way) is not only another notch on the Chinesee leak's belt (though it's a lemur, not a monkey), but also a fun new Mon for VGC, as is it's counterpart Oranguru (yet another great name).

I know Oranguru not a gorilla, but I'm naming it Harambe, anyway.

I love Passimian. The design is awesome and receiver seems like a cool ability (and its nice to see another tick for the Chinese leak). Oranguru has a neat concept but I'm indifferent to it. Thinking they're both standalones, although I guess I could see a baby monkey prevo.
Lycanroc being pure rock in both forms is disappointing, I was hoping midnight form at least would gain a secondary type. Midday form has grown on me a lot seeing it in game though.

We have arrived.
I do love how pretty much everyone, myself included, saw various secondary typing options for both Lycanrocs and yet at the end of the day they're both simply Rock type.
Really glad I'm getting Sun at this point, to be honest, with the exclusives shown.

Yay for more new pokemon and abilities.
I find the Moon version exclusives so far are better (but I think I'll get both versions).
Oranguru though. I always wanted an orangutan based pokemon.
I'm kinda 50-50 w/ Rockruff's evolutions. They're both look basic. But I prefer the midnite one.

Now that I know both of Lycanroc's evo's are just rock type I'm definitely getting Sun. The midday form has a much better ability with Sand Rush and looks cooler imo. I was heavily leaning to Sun anyway but now that they're confirmed version exclusives it's a definite. Personally I think making them both just rock types is a missed opportunity. Rock/Normal and Rock/Dark could have been pretty sweet.
Passimian is pretty cool. No complaints.
Oranguru is amazing. I love the design and the typing. Only issue is it's Moon exclusive so I'm gonna have to trade for it. And on that note - Wonder trade will be returning, yes? There's been no mention of it.

The dark type struggle is real. We even lost a dark type if you consider alot were expecting a /dark typing for Lycanroc midnight

so since lyanroc's forms have the same typing, I wonder if this means that if the starters end up with two different forms depending on the version, they'll still have the same typing as each other.

That's what I figured. It's just a different form, like Shellos or Meowstic.
Then I hope the designs are drastically different or what's the point?

Out of the two brand new guys revealed today, I'm liking Oranguru more - though as I'm getting both versions I'm not too worried about the availability of either of them.
I'm a little disappointed in both Lycanroc forms being pure rock type, but never mind.
Also, if you include the Lycanroc and Oricorio forms as separate (types and abilities), we've already got 2 more evolution lines than in gen VI. And whilst not fully revealed all of them, the dex is already at 53 for Alola.
