Okay, so it looks like we can at least temporarily change outfits during contests... I'll settle for that for now. Gives me hope for fully customizable trainers later, anyway.
But yeah, I've said it already over a hundred times: this game will be awesome. Translate it fast, guys.
I don't even care if there are no lines as classic as R/B/Y's "I dropped my balls!" or "I like shorts! They're comfortable and easy to wear!"

Can someone explain me this? What can you do in the game for 8 players at the same time? I can think of "double battles" (2vs2, 1 pokemon a player) but that would have at the most "only" 4 players?

Probably at least one of those two things. I'm guessing probably also, yeah, a tournament setup, and a Union Room (FR/LG/E) style feature where all of the players are put in a room together and can walk around challenging each other.
What I'm
hoping is for an expansion of the Battle Frontier to allow for multiplayer... Battle Pyramid co-op, Battle Pike competitive, Battle Factory competitive, etc. But, of course, nothing's even been said about whether the BF is making a return yet--which is just about the only criticism I have for D/P.

Why the hell is everybody so excited?! It's the same game as before! YOU CAN'T EVEN WALK IN EIGHT DIRECTIONS!
Judging by GAF reactions to the likes of Yoshi's Island 2 and Mega Man ZX, nobody cares if a lot of the mechanics stay similar as long as they were great to begin with.
