Announcement day, let's gooooooo~ If no one else has posted before the announcement goes live, I'll edit this post. I'll also mention, in advance, that my stance on "spoilers" is, if it's officially revealed in official released material, I don't consider it a spoiler because it's something that they've voluntarily put out there, to try to get people hyped for/to purchase the game.
Also, preloads are now up for USUM in a couple of regions, which includes a code for a free theme. Almost scary that we're only about two weeks away!
Trailer is a go!

Battle Agency, might be interesting, the idea of renting Pokemon and battling it out (a la, Battle Factory, which I never tried out). New item "fetch" quest, with interesting sounding rewards! Island Scans getting an update... Plus a little bit more on the Ultra Wormholes (Legendaries for daaayyyyyssss... Will be interesting to see if it removes the shiny lock for a handful of them...)
There's a big ol' press release going around, which gives a little more info on a few bits of the new stuff - link is here, it's a long ol' one.

Also, even more version-exclusive stuff to keep an eye on and use to decide which version you want... And, sounds like they really wanna get people to use the Festival Plaza, with the Agency stuff.
