The dancing for Z-moves is an allusion to hula dancing, which is a major cultural device in Hawaii. They use it to tell stories, celebrate, convey messages, express feelings, and teach lessons. I've had the pleasure of seeing it live more than once, it's really beautiful. And yes, they do a lot of movements like you see in the Z-move build up. If you notice, each type has a different dance leading up to it; for electric, the trainer finished with their arms in the shape of a lightning bolt. Grass, they make a blooming or growing motion. Water, they move like waves. Fire, they make bursting and fast motions. I think it's really well done and clever. I hope to see more connections to Hawaii's rich culture.SpoilerAlso... where did you find these supposed starter evo leaks?? I haven't seen anything I'd even consider credible yet....
New info (from yesterday?) commentary:SpoilerOMG Ghost/Fire Marowak! That is just so cool. I love Cubonr so much, I hope it gets retyped, too (maybe Fire?)Would really like to start seeing Alolan variations for Pokemon beyond Gen 1, though. I'm hoping that they'll be there, but I'm not holding my breath anymore. :/
The red circle is why people believe these are real. Again, this was leaked before the trailer we got yesterday, which was the first time we met the trial leaders (or so everyone says, again, I've been avoiding spoilers and haven't checked everything). So it seems pretty likely these are official, or someone did a great job finding leaks of her well before hand.

No no, it seems to be Fire/Dark. That's what's been going around. Game Freak aren't idiots, they wouldn't pull a Fire/Fighting starter out again.... they'd be drowned in player rage. But it IS going to be quite the bruiser, from the looks of it...
I think that only Gen 1 is getting Alolan forms so far because it's the 20th anniversary....They released RBY on the eShop after all. They're celebrating and refreshing the original games that started a whole culture.... It makes me happy.
Okay, but... Weren't all of the Mega Evolutions in X/Y also Gen I?
