Website has a VERY important detail the trailer didn't go into:
That's way more hype than anything shown in the trailer.
While I'm posting anyway, let me just toss out some observations / theories:
Those Pokemon Center Gas Stations mean you no longer have to walk into and out of a building to heal.
It is weird for actual fruit like Oranges and Grapes to be there when Berries already represent fruit in Pokemon.
Bit obvious, but the design of the caves shown all but confirms some form of climbing traversal will return in this game.
People are speculating the Legendary Pokemon might end up as vehicles the player rides. Seems likely with their design.
Our rival this time appears pretty traditional, a personality we've seen often before, but she happens to be named Nemona. That's AN OMEN backwards. Calling it now. She's the villain of the region. They're going to have a Rival / Villain. The website hammers home that she's "your friend", which makes her even more suspicious.

my new favourite pokemon name

So which version is everyone planning to grab? Fire Lizard or Jet Laser Lizard?

I'll say something nice. That song in the trailer was kinda nostalgic. It reminded me of something out of Pokemon Stadium on N64. The assets look more high res than Arceus, but the art style is still 'bleh'.
Don't think I'll bite on Pokemon again until they mix up the formula even more, but it's a solid step I suppose.

If you just want a different genre, there's a ton of spinoffs. They've already mixed the formula up alot between Arceus and this, although I wonder how much from Arceus will stick with this one.

i don't think i've actually been as excited for a Pokemon game since Pokemon & Silver as i am now after seeing the latest Pokemon Legends trailer.
