Seeing that leaked pokedex has really put me off on this game.. I don't really want any of those pokemon in my team.
Generally the first forms look the best and the final evolutions are mostly kinda shitty and suffer from the Poochie syndrome with very few exceptions..

Blaziken @ Leftovers/Life Orb
Ability: Speed Boost
Nature: Adamant
EVs: 252 Atk, 252 Spd, 4HP
-Claw Sharpen (the Atk + Acc move, I believe?)/Swords Dance
-Blaze Kick
-Hi Jump Kick
-Thunder Punch/Stone Edge
I think this set is pretty simple. Switch in on a resisted move or after something's been KO'd and scare it off. SD/Claw Sharpen on the free turn and then sweep with a huge smile on my face.Claw Sharpen's accuracy boost works really well with Blaze kick's, Stone Edge's and HJK's less than desirable accuracy. The choice between TP/SE depends on whether you're more afraid of Bulky Waters or Mence/Nite/Lati@s. The main threats to this set:
1) Rain Dance teams make it difficult to get started and lower Blaze Kick's power. But with a few turns on its belt, Blaziken will be able to outspeed them and hit hard with Thunder Punch.
2) Priority moves, aqua jet in particular kind of ruin the set. It's probably a good idea to support Blaziken with something like Weezing who can candle Azumarill like a champ and also deal with those pesky earthquakes.
3) Intimidate kind of ruins the fun a little, especially if you use Claw sharpen. The worst part is that Gyarados and Mence are only weak to TP and SE respectively >.<
4) Stupid Shuckle! Fortunately nobody uses him anymore, but think about carrying a special based water type to get rid of it.
5) Blaziken isn't too keen on entry hazard on his side of the field. Use Starmie to get rid of them! (note: Starmie also takes out Shuckle rather nicely. Two birds with one stone!) The other side of the field is fair game though.
Blaziken is my Joint Favourite Pokémon, so I'm really glad to see him become truly viable competitively.

Current Champion's Theme is really flat compared to Cynthia's Theme or even Blue's theme.
E4 theme is not that great, also.
Masked Man
I said wow
Oh my gosh, Espeon gets a brand-new ability! :O
What could it be?! :O
EDIT: Magic Guard Alakazam (if he can survive the hits, lol)
Serene Grace Mebukijika
So many Psychic-types with new (untranslated) abilities.

Not really feeling any of the new music. Work harder on the melodies next time, Game Freak.
edit: ok, the city themes are kickin' it.

Apparently Espeon has a new ability that reflects Status--so like Synchronize, but Espeon doesn't suffer in the process.
AWESOME. <3
AWESOME. <3

Its a great theme that fits the tone, i think what bothers you the most is the fact that like you said, your rivals are friendly (they are not your rivals though, your rival is N), wich to me its perfectly fine.
The theme just fits with that, its a fun theme for your first battle, it doesnt need to be BADASS.

So about this Pokémon:
it is an ancient bug Pokémon modified by Team Plasma, right?
I'm really interested in the lore of the legendaries this gen. They are all batshit crazy.

I am guessing it is a legendary's theme, it has the same "atmosphere" as Giratina and Arceus's themes.kman3000 said:
