Yeah, I think that - especially with Drought Charizard (gimmicky, but nonetheless - an evolution on the switch in of another inducer is huge) around the corner - it would be time to even out the 4 weathers, at least in terms of the number of inducers.
Same here. I'm pretty certain that's what will happen
I noticed a lot of the pokemon they showed in the Poke Bank had ties to X and Y. Some are from 6th gen, some have mega forms, and others had their typing reworked with Fairy. I'm really reaching here but maybe it's foreshadowing on additional mega forms or type changes. Scizor, Gyrados, Haunter, and Houndour are in there.

the only ones not seen in media from January to know I believe are Weavile, Machamp, Gliscor(maybe from a picture/trailer), Staraptor(maybe from a picture/trailer), Druddigon, Scizor, and LaprasI noticed a lot of the pokemon they showed in the Poke Bank had ties to X and Y.

everything else was either in a demo, in an official picture, or in an official trailer of some kind...or maybe they were from Pokemon Smash...hard to tell but I CAN point out where everyone else has been.
I hope not. Hordes can be comprised of different species though so it might not mean anything
New area @0:16 and...this is apparently a thing:
COULD OROTTO BE APART OF THE SUDOWOODO FAMILY?!?!
Oh yeah! A lot of those were in hoarde battles, sky battles, pokemon amie, and just general battle shots. That's interesting. Where did Mienfoo appear though?
Mienfoo appeared in original video. Quick question-How many megapokemon have been shown so far? Ive lost track.
10, you forgot Lucario
Does Scizor count for being mentioned but not shown?
Is Miltank part of Tauros' family? No... People need to stop reading so much into pictures like this.New area @0:16 and...this is apparently a thing:

Still, I'm kinda so-so on the Kanto Starters, I hope you don't get them too early. Chances are I won't even use them on my first few games because I want to use new stuff... I can understand what they are doing, but I've trained those mons atleast 4 or 5 times each, I don't want too again.

The only reason Sudowoodo is there is because it's trying to blend in with the other tree pokemon.

Why hasn't Orotto been officially confirmed yet?

That isn't a new area at 16 seconds in, it's the Tower of Mastery.
I love how Orotto is just floating around the commercial nether at this point. It cracks me up to see an officially leaked Pokémon continue to get officially leaked. Also, Sudowoodos can be freely found and captured in the wild again, wut.

^^Yeah, it looks more like the attacked Pokémon is being tickled by the plants, rather than slammed by them. I know the attack is meant to be about wild roots grabbing, squeezing and hitting the opponent, but it just seems lame.
Then again, its animation in previous generations hasn't been that much to write home about either:

I hope it'll get a little more "oomph" in some later installment. Roots grabbing the opponent would be next to impossible to animate for ~800 Pokémon models, but some kind of slam à la an overgrown Vine Whip shouldn't be that hard?

If I remember correctly the Power Whip animation from this generation is BONKERS.
And people actually use Power Whip, Frenzy Plant is garbage.
