So happy I’ve got a few days off work this week so I don’t have to try and catch it at work.

I hope it doesn't look like Sun and Moon, I don't know why, but I don't like it as much, and I have no idea why Ash looks like a different person completely, either.

I’d love it if it looked anything like the anime, I’m still hoping for something along the lines of Town or Yokai Watch 4 (I think its 4 that released on the Switch anyway).

I really enjoyed the Pokemon Sun demo, especially the town area.

I thought the characters looked good is Sun and Moon, especially after the stumpy characters in X&Y.

Considering the huge jump in capabilities from the 3DS to the Switch I can't see why they can't come close to replicating the anime characters.

Town seems like a great gameplay concept, bit I think it looks ugly.

I'd set for Yo Kai Watch 4 graphics though.

Sorry, I meant the Sun and Moon anime.

I’d definitely be thrilled if it looked anything like that, would definitely be the closest we’d have gotten to the anime.

Pokémon Day is sure to be a fun one, then. Gen8 info, playing a few games, and watching a few episodes of the anime.
I just want as much packed into this reveal as possible. Give us an XY-style tease of world and battles, starters and legendaries, and then the names. I don't want to have to sit through another timeline of all the main series games to then just get a minute of concept art.

Only recently done a run of Crystal but that was a Meganium only run so might start a more normal run through and see how far I can get by 2pm!

You might have to give me some time this afternoon to get on the OP. It'll happen, though!

Liking the look of the world (barring the industrial area).

Technically, looks like a steady upgrade from Sun & Moon and pretty much what I expected from a first Switch effort.
