Guess this confirms Ash gets Midday.

Well, since Type:Null probably doesn't exist in the anime then we can safely assume that this version of Gladion goes out in those clothes on purpose.
doot
where's his cleffa tho
I couldn't conceive a dream so wet; your bongos make me congo.

With his Mom probably.
I hope the Anime is kinder to him. He was a bit neglected in the game. He and Lillie have all of one conversation.

Well, I hope you can stand jackass older brother for a while, since the poster makes him look a bit crazy.
Wake me up at your own risk.

He doesn't look as crazy in the clips.

I mean, he's an edgelord. He's gotta act the part

He'll probably also function as Ash's rival this saga. Gladion is literally Gary mixed with Paul dialed up to 11.

I still haven't played Sun/Moon, but isn't that an exaggeration? From what I understand he might be a bit of a chuuni, otherwise he's a decent person.

It's not only an exaggeration, it's a complete misconception lol.
Gladion is more akin to Silver than anyone else, and even then he's a saint in comparison to the latter.

Well, the image shows him with an Umbreon, so he at least treats his Pokemon decently.

He has Crobat and a Lucario in the game as well.

I also hope it makes anime Lillie more interesting now that they're getting into her game story. As of right now Lillie wasn't much more than a re-tread of Serena, (another girly shy blonde girl who isn't into battling and is nice with everyone), as well as her fear of pokemon is similar to Misty/Iris/May's all disinterest in certain pokemon at first.
She's really not much like her game counterpart at all. Maybe this will change as more elements from her game storyline are introduced.

Oh, and here's something from Dephender:
A special report on the start of Satoshi and Pikachu's journey!
We've finally got a glimpse of the movie's story! We'll also present the newly discovered Pokémon and the travel companions in detail!!
Setting off with Houou as the goal! The "Rainbow Feather" Houou gave Satoshi serves as their guide for the journey!!
From completely incompatible to true partners! After meeting Pikachu, Satoshi finally sets off on his journey! What kind of adventure awaits him on his journey in search of Houou?
"I like you!" Satoshi and Pikachu's meeting! Satoshi also started out as a rookie Pokémon Trainer. But even though Pikachu won't listen to him, he gets through to it little by little.
"Let's go meet it!" The start of the adventure!! They witness Houou, which flaps its beautiful wings as it flies through the sky! Meeting this legendary Pokémon again then becomes the duo's goal!
Encounters with travelmates! As the journey continues on, companions that will travel with Satoshi appear! Both the humans and the Pokémon are irreplaceable friends! Makoto and Soji, Pokémon Trainers: They will teach Satoshi lots of things he doesn't know. Butterfree and Hitokage, Pokémon: Together with the Pokémon he befriends, Satoshi heads for his next encounter!
A tough opponent that stands in his way: Cross! When Trainers meet, they have a Pokémon battle! Some opponents focus purely on physical strength to win!
Friends! Pokémon! New encounters!! These are the people and Pokémon Satoshi meets on his journey. It's confirmed that a newly discovered Pokémon will be among them!!
Trainers! Pokémon! All kinds of encounter lie in wait!! Companions, a rival and a person that helps Satoshi! For the first time ever, the journey is truly overflowing with such encounter! And in the movie, a Pokémon nobody yet knew of , one resembling a black shadow, will appear! And so will a certain Pokémon from the Alola region!
Marshadow: It hid in Satoshi's shadow without anyone noticing. Is it actually Marshadow that's been guiding Satoshi as well?! (A Pokémon quietly appeared from Satoshi's shadow!)
Cross: A Trainer that travels with a Gaogaen. He believes that strength is everything.
Gaogaen: In addition to moves that shoot out fire, it also specializes in punching and kicking!
Pochama: Makoto's partner. It gets carried away rather easily.
Lucario: Soji's partner. It has the power to read others' emotions.
Lizardon: Does Satoshi meet this Pokémon somewhere on his journey...?
Soji: He knows extremely much about Pokémon, and his goal is to eventually become a Pokémon Professor.
Makoto: An energetic girl Trainer that's Satoshi's equal!
Joy: She will treat injured Pokémon at the Pokémon Center.
Bonji: A researcher that has chased after Houou for a long time.
Grant us eyes
You know, this is the first game team that's been on Jessie and James' level. They've never interacted with a group that's as goofy as they are like Team Skull. I can only hope that they'll have amazing interactions with YOUR BOY, GUZMA!

That's true. Every other team has been portrayed as being 100 times more dangerous than Jessie and James, at least until Team Plasma (during the time the trio were more serious) and Team Flare (where, while the trio were less serious, they were still shown to be amazingly competent when it counted).
I admit, it will be interesting to see Team Skull interact with Team Rocket.
One Strip! One Strip!
Mecha and Waifu, become one!
Eh, I'd compare Gladion to Hugh more than anyone else: Chunni looks but actually cares for people
Silver is just a dick really, the only thing I'd say Gladion shares with him is the parental problems
Warrior to the very end! My tumblr, dood!
doot
... Man, I don't think I'd actually seen James before in the new artstyle. His hair looks kinda... chunky.
I still love it but it's gonna take some gettin used to.
I couldn't conceive a dream so wet; your bongos make me congo.
I hope Ash losing to Gladion is what pushes him to do more trails. They can only delay them for so long.
I can either see the trials brushed aside quickly or rushed, it's pretty obvious this saga the writers don't seem to care about progressing Ash's goal or character any. Sun/Moon feels like a "vacation" of sorts for the anime. Probably after the writers couldn't have Ash win the Kalos league because of whatever business execs in charge, they just flat out gave up and stopped trying to give the illusion that Ash is progressing now. My only interest in Ash this saga is if his pokemon evolve.
Well Butch and Cassidy were practically a Sitcom Arch-Nemesis by the end of their run, but otherwise yeah (wish they had kept the more comical games Flare though, they would have been hilarious against Team Rocket).

They should really make the Mooks silly and once you are dealing with the Admins and such shit gets real.

Actually, it might be called "A One-Month Delay
" or something like that.
