Apparently there was a "leak" that said that that ship or whatever where you fight Lance and stuff takes you to a part of another region, probably like in FR/LG. Has that leak proven anything accurate or not? I can see Kalos being that ship if they really do bring back mega evolutions (:() or Sinnoh) because I too don't see a DPPt remake but I do see a massive omage.
First, Spoiler tags.
Can you link us to the leak? It's hard to know what leak you're talking about since leak are like grains of sand in the desert.
Legitimacy of the leak aside, who knows if its true or not (so far "trustworthy" leaks we've got have been telling half truths at best). I personally doubt the going to other region part as that's a bit of a trip just to go sightseeing or a quick glimpse of a familiar landmark. But meeting past trainers... I'm willing to think that's plausible. Part of Alola is an island resort, and people need a vacation now and again including Gym Leaders, Elite Four, Champions, and anyone else really. Wouldn't be surprised if here and there you may meet a familiar face, would be a cool feature especially if they cycle through characters, and of course, let you battle them.
