Actually, if the theme of this gen really is genetics, any new typings could very well be artificial and not even natural.

Would "Sound" count as an artificial type?

I'm not a fan of Eeveelutions or anything, but here's an idea:

Herculeon [Fighting Type]
Griffeon / Pegaseon(?) [Flying Type]

I like the sound or Herculeon, honestly. A cloud or air theme could fit a Flying-type Eeveelution I think.

Some ideas from the top of my head: Aereon/Aireon (aer = Latin for air), Alteon (altus = high in Latin, altitude), Aveon (Aves class in biology) and Strateon (stratus clouds). I like the idea of it beginning with A, but that's just me, haha.

What would Sound-type Pokemon actually be? Types seem to describe what they are rather than what they emit, so I'm wondering what Sound-types would look like.

Am I the only one expecting a Poodle Pokémon considering how popular Poodle's are in France. I guess it could be a Normal Type as well as a Water Type because they are water dogs.

Music notes with fur and fangs.

A poodle, only instead of puffs of fur, it had puffs of fire!

Anyway, I feel like they should have poke'mon that's like a mid-evil suit of armor (Like a Ghost/Steel Type)

A jack-o-lantern Pokemon would be interesting (It could be a Grass/Fire Type)

Oh, and for this generation's electric rodent, it should be a rabbit that generate's electricity between it's ears like a Jacob's Latter!

We do already have Plusle and Minun which are Electric Pokémon based on a mix between mice/rats and rabbits. So electric beavers anyone?

They could look like the Exploud, Kricketune, Seismitoad and Chingling lines, Chatot, Meloetta, maybe even Maractus and anything sound- or music-related. There are some moves that could possibly have the type changed to sound as well (Growl, Roar, Hypervoice, Sing, etc). Personally I think it would be a more useful and interesting type than Holy/Light/Whatever.

[Fennekin]

How about a Pokémon based off a croissant? We have had Ice Cream Pokémon after all.

[Unovian]

I'm expecting a lot of typical earthy-looking pokemon since it's Europe-based

[Machine Gun]

Are we getting a pokemon that is parallel to Lucario/Zoroark in this gen ?

I would think so. It may not be marketed as such, but I wouldn't doubt there being a Pokemon that's comparable, even if it's a fan-based opinion.

I'm not sure where to post this, but I made a little observation.

While looking at the screenshots of Fennekin, I noticed that it had brown markings on its paws and a little on its tail, even though its official artwork lacks these markings. It has me curious actually, and I'm wondering if it could be a possible gender difference. That, or maybe the trailer was showing some earlier beta footage of Fennekin's model, though that seems a little less likely.

That's a good catch.

Wonder what the gyms will be...there will probably be a bug type gym, though because of that spider web thing in the trailer. I am also hoping for more owl pokemon lol sure we have Noctowl and Hoothoot but still...
