Starters
The 3 new starters for Pokemon Sun and Moon are Rowlet, Litten, and Popplio.
Rowlet is a grass/flying type that looks like an owl.
Litten is a fire type that looks like, you guessed it, a kitten.
Popplio is a water type that looks like a sea lion. His design looks like someone you would see at a circus or other performing venue.
Gameplay
The video also showcased gameplay footage, showing the new professor, some new locations, and the player characters.
Player customization was shown to return with the Japanese trailer, which shows some extra footage.
The character models while traveling around are also the full ones you see in battle. The previous games used smaller, chibi-style models for the characters outside of battle.
Legendaries
Each version of Pokemon has a legendary shown on the box art, and that Pokemon is central to the story of that version. Sun and Moon are no different and both legendaries were shown in-game. We also got a picture of the box art.
The Sun legendary looks like a huge, white lion with a sun-shaped mane.
The Moon legendary is a huge, purple bat with moon-shaped wings.
