Alola an island chain?

Looking at the image of Alola it only looks like one island, and I was thinking due to Hawaii being an archipelago we'd see more than just that one island, which I assume is only the starting area. So I was wondering whether we should wait until we get confirmation before we use the image. Ashitic (talk) 16:20, 11 May 2016 (UTC)

We know the image is of at least part of Alola, and it's also not confirmed that there are any additional areas, so for now, the image is fine. When Unova and Kalos were first revealed, we used the images of Castelia and Lumiose because those were the only images we had. --Abcboy (talk) 16:38, 11 May 2016 (UTC)

While you're at it could you perhaps add the Russian names for Lunala and Solgaleo as well? --Raltseye 14:04, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

Two Smaller Islands?

Shouldn't we point out the slightly smaller islands other than the big four and the artificial one?Lionasad (talk) 11:19, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

It is mentioned in the intro. Also always start new discussions by using the new section button. --Raltseye 11:36, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

Melemele

According to the Japanese Pokedex trailer the first island (northwest on the map) is メレメレ (Melemele, Hawaiian for "Yellow") --Deuxhero (talk) 02:03, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

There are a couple assumptions in that statement. We only intend to add confirmed (certain) Sun/Moon info. In short: we're going to wait on more (and English) info. Tiddlywinks (talk) 02:07, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

Guardian Pokemon

the gameplay at E3 mentions that there are guardian pokemon for each island, and that there is a festival(s) held for them. Should we add this info now?Yamitora1 (talk) 06:53, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

We need more info about it before we can say for sure. And we don't even know if Tapu Koko is a Pokémon or not. Chomper4 (talk) 13:00, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

How much more info do you need to say that each island has a guardian pokemon? also what/who is Tapu Koko?Yamitora1 (talk) 04:56, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
