Has it been confirmed that the building near the central mountain next to the first city is the Pokemon League?

nope, the actual location of the league is a current unknown
Totally agree, the ease of evolving certain Pokemon in Legends was great for teambuilding. I get that they want to treat Pokemon like real creatures and not retcon their traits if they can help it, but there's some evolution methods that just really need to change.
Chingling always struck me as something they were going to add in Gen 3 but never had the time to, haven't found any evidence of it yet though. Chimecho was cut and re-added late into the process but there's no slots in the sprite and early dex indexes that sound like Chingling.
Definitely think it should have gotten the Roserade treatment back then, but now that we're getting crossgens again it might have a chance either this gen or in the 10th.
Well then, what's up with the Stadium-looking building northwest of Mesagoza then within the Map of Paldea? There's even a Pokémon center near it too!
It's clearly either for the Pokémon League or a postgame facility for sure. Unless I'm mistaken. Otherwise, why have it designed like a Stadium?
One baby I think works okay is Budew
I've always liked turning the boring Roselia into the middle form of a 3 stage line. It feels like it works really well
Tyrogue is cool too. Tying previously unrelated Pokemon into being related is novel and hasn't really been done again

Yeah. It's strange how it's a Pokémon Anime-style league Stadium building too despite these two games having an Elite Four. Are League Tournaments secretly making a comeback or something despite what GameFreak's told us so far?
They keep introducing weird evolution methods though. Like, how will Runerigus evolve in future entries? It's another Ice/Moss rock all over again.
Some pokemon still deserve to receive babies: a baby that evolves into Throh or Sawk, and a baby that evolves into Miltank and Tauros.
A baby that evolves into Pinsir or Heracross while having the same BST as both, like Scyther does with Scizor and Kleavor.
Gen 2 baby Pokemon have always had a special place in my heart, their simplistic designs are just peak!
Masuda tweeted let's do our best again this week 💭
Haha I feel very similarly, realistically I will probably end up having different teams and spreading them out due to exp share. And yeah, love Cyclizar. Looks like a classic Pokemon that would be right at home in gen 1 or 2
I honestly think we could get previews this coming week, or if we're lucky another trailer
Edit: You know what I'm calling my shot, another trailer this week
The funniest thing about the babies is that some of their exclusive moves are actually worse.
Like Marill gets Belly Drum as an egg move but Azurill doesn't, so why would you ever hatch an Azurill?

Serperior, Ducklett, Swanna, Pikipek, Toucannon and Minor are all in the best Switch Pokemon game though! New Pokemon Snap
Confirmation from Khu that these are now the only mons not on switch.
Biggest loss overall for me is Minior, Serperior and Zebstrika
The babies are interesting from the perspective of getting a more natural look at newborn pokemon rather than them being born full sized weirdos right out of the egg like Mr. Mime is without adorable Mime Jr. But I totally get it takes up more resources than it deserves which is why you don't see new ones much.
Its cool getting to see what a baby pikachu looks like but unfortunately does not do much for actual gameplay.

But even with Mime Jr existing, Mr Mime can still hatch because lol Gamefreak
Just saw that too and had the same thought. If true this could be a fun one. Very interested to see Paldean Tauros(es)
if true the next trailer would be massive showing off the Parrot, the Mouse couple, Dunsparce evo, the box legends again?, and Regional Tauros. And going by Masuda we may even expect it this week
Can't wait for the deets on the engine pokemon.
Won't happen but would be amazing if Rotom could fuse with this thing.
Does Khu have any knowledge of their marketing? I think this is a stretch to say this is all going to be in a trailer this week.
Edit: Someone on twitter may have figured it out. Top row is alternate forms, 2nd row is gender differences, and 3rd row is modified forms

Yeah I didn't think Khu had trailer info, he never has before right? I'm really not sure what his post meant though.
I don't remember much but I'm pretty sure he hinted lechonk right before that trailer. But yeah maybe not related at all
Interesting, if that's the case we didn't know anything about Dunsparce's evolution having multiple forms did we? I wonder how different they are.
nah I don't think thats it, I doubt the Dunsparce evo has an alternate form, at least not that we heard of.
Also Khu said that the coin pokemon is never actually a coin, its just the codename he uses, based on its looks its some sort of itemfinding vessel that accumulates coins and eventually evolves into some liquid metal golem
TLJJ? What does that even stand for? Hmm...
(And yes I know it's relating to the fabled Dunsparce Evo. I just want to know what TLJJ stands for and means.)
The coin has been compared to the Zygarde cells and the engine has been confirmed to have been modified for the car. I think it's on the money, honestly.
Tu long di di is the chinese name for dunsparce(di di meaning little brother), Tu long Jie Jie is apparently the name of the evo in chinese( Jie Jie meaning older sister)
Also apparently according to Khu what we saw in the trailer is that pokemon's equivalent of a zygarde cell, and not the pokemon.
So I assume its similar to cells in that you can collect a certain amount for the first stage, and then you collect even more to evolve it

So in that case it might be part of the "it gets bigger" type of naming convention. Maybe something like Dunsparce -> Adundant?
Interesting! Wonder what that'll mean for the evo's English name then.
Given Tu Long Di Di's the Chinese name for Dunsparce.
I think maybe we would have heard that something was coming this week, at least some hubbub.
I do think a trailer is distinctly possible, especially after the Masuda tweet, but previews are more up in the air
Abundunsparce could work lol.
I realize it still has sparce in the name, it just sounds funny is all.
Also Khu gave more details about the coin.
He said the evolution is hard work, and you can catch the first stage in the wild.
Picking up the cell equivalent counts as +1 towards the evolution, but catching the first stage counts as +10 or +50(he can't remember)
He said the first evo is hard to respawn but its the best way to get multiples of the final stage of this pokemon

Lol this Pokemon sounds bizarre. And yet, despite all this, Kaka still said Primeape has the hardest evolution. Makes you wonder what you'll have to do for that thing if this Spiritomb treasure hunt thing isn't the hardest.
This is the second or third time that Khu has warned that the coin mon's evolution is pretty hard to obtain. I'm guessing the Primeape evo is more in line with something like Runerigus or Sirfetch'd with a very specific task.
I know he said that it's OP, but "high power move without any negative drawback" is what they did for Noivern, which is a relatively weak mon all things considered. I could see the intended negative drawback to its signature move being low offensive stats.
Okay that rules
I mean Khu directly called the mon OP with a great new ability too
