You should definitely include the 3 UBs in that list, and Buneary / Lopunny.Don't know if anyone's been "keeping track", per se, but by my count we know of 27 species that have been added to the Alola Dex (based on the assumptions that everything we've been shown in the wild will be in the new Dex, and that nothing has been removed since SM):
With a minimum of 101 new Pokémon to be added (since Marshadow is #301 in the SM Dex and #402 in the USUM one), this suggests that there are still about 75 or so new entries in the Alola Dex that we don't know about.Mime Jr., Mr. Mime

Nothing on that so far but I don’t see them switching to an in-game national dex mid gen while bank is still a thingDo we know yet whether or not the national dex is returning?
I hope this is sarcasm.
If it's sarcasm, it isn't well done
Wut
Dude, it's made pretty obvious that the villainous leaders do have main pokemon. Camerupt for Team Magma (wants the world to be purely land), Sharpedo for Aqua (wants world to be purely water), Pyroar for Team Flare (leader's colors and personality match), Golisopod with a badass edgy leader, and Hydregion for some ancient king (hydra, king, legends, DARK).
As the poster above me said, I sincerely hope this is a joke.
The argument was never if Weavile was representing Cyrus, the argument was whether Weavile was the appropriate Pokemon to represent Cyrus.
We know it is not.Do we know yet whether or not the national dex is returning?
National Dex punishes/discourages new players too much.
Because the Pokemon number keeps increasing, We're already at 800, and there's no reason to not think there'll be another 100 next gen. The numbers start to stack up pretty hard, expecially if you start factoring in mythicals.I know some people think it's silly but I actually love reading dex entries. It made the Pokemon feel more than just catchable creatures. Not to mention I lwas looking forward to reading dex entries for the other Megas.
And I don't know if the National Dex discourages newer players as it was a thing up to 6th gen right? Why would it now discourage newer players when it was already be pretty difficult to get all the Pokemon to begin with?

I really hope Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings Necrozma have 780 BST. That would be awesome. Looking forward to see how well Dusk Mane does as a Xerneas check. Not sure how good Dawn Wings would be without Shadow Shield though.
As for good news, consider that my prediction of "all megas being available" is slowly being proved, so you can expect USUM dex to indeed have an entry for every mega :)
They mentioned harems for Salazzle. I think they're aware at least of the waifu status of the two, but if they aren't... Pokémon is gonna be a bit nsfw.I'm waiting for a creepy Mega Gardevoir and Mega Lopunny entry. I challenge you GF.

What about Altaria, Houndoom, and Manectric? Especially Altaria.I'm waiting for a creepy Mega Gardevoir and Mega Lopunny entry. I challenge you GF.
Oh, I like the Pokedex descriptions too, and I'm so glad they decided to make new ones (for the Pokemon in the regional dex)! Actually, this could be one reason why the National Dex isn't returning, I don't think GF wants to make entries for all 800+ Pokemon (plus their alternate forms plus any Mega Evolutions). I hope they decide to keep doing this for future games.
Now the question is what do they plan to do in USUM for the returning Pokemon from SM? Now, I personally think that they should make new descriptions for all the Gen VII Pokemon (it is their generation), obviously the Pokemon being added to the regional dex (as well as their forms and Mega Evos), and maybe a select few others who past dex entries which weren't that varied. Also would be nice if Pokemon you got via Island Scan got a dex entry, I mean they are catchable in the game.And just for fun give the Shiny their own dex descriptions about how Pokemon collectors view it. Finally, for the mons who don't get new dex descriptions, I say in that case swap the descriptions around. Put the descriptions in Moon into Ultra Sun and the ones in Sun into Ultra Moon.
As for the National Dex discouraging newer players, I don't think so since you had to unlock it in past games which you did via the post game. The main game's focus was purely on the Regional Dex and they always treated the National Dex as an bonus achievement (which is why it was the one which rewarded the Shiny Charm and the Regional Dex awarded the Oval Charm; Oval Charm is much more useful to players who go on to raise competitive Pokemon as they can hatch Eggs faster while there's no additional benefit to a Pokemon being Shiny and you only slightly increase your chance of getting one with the Shiny Charm).
780? They're no Megas, they're just alternate forms. 680 at least, 700 at most.
I can't wait to find out how all the other Mega Pokemon are harmful to them or others around them because you should really be using those Z-Moves, guys. It's much safer to pump your Pokemon with Ultra Energy than unleashing the latent energy inside of them!
Reshiram --> 680 BST
Zekrom --> 680 BST
Reshiram/Zekrom fused with Kyurem --> 700
There's 0 reason for them to retain the 680 BST, when they obviously are stronger.
"Its ability to sense the feelings of others is heightened drastically. It suffers the collective pain of everyone and everything within a 2-mile radius."I'm more intrigued for a potentially creepy Mega Audino entry.
Oh please just look at Altaria's face , it CLEARLY is plotting genocide while Shouting people to a... fairy death.What about Altaria, Houndoom, and Manectric? Especially Altaria.
I mean the obvious counterpoint is that Kyurem has 660 BST, while Necrozma has 600. For Kyurem, going to 700 BST was a not unreasonable +40 BST, while Necrozma would be a +100 BST jump.
They're Kyurem and Necrozma formes after all, not Reshiram/Zekrom or Solgaleo/Lunala formes.
We know it is not.
GF stated multiple times it will not return as it's now in the PokeBank, and for valid reasons.
