Now that the newest trailer has dropped I have some more information to share with you all. I'll answer questions as best I can, but I'm staying away from heavy story spoilers.
Part 1.
>The English names of the newest Pokémon are Hugrizzly and Eepakoo
>Eepakoo is available through an event triggered by transferring a Yellow Version Pikachu up from the VC by means of Bank. Taking a VC Pikachu (which has a ribbon) to a haunted house in one of the early towns sparks a battle in which the jealous Eepakoo is frustrated that this particular Pikachu "seems truly loved".
>Ridable Pokémon are your own, not rentable like Mamoswine was in XY. You get a key item mid game called the "Riding Gear", and it's slightly different than XY with an "extreme sports" twist. Like the bike, in designated areas you can attatch Riding Gear to Pokémon you have on hand and use them to travel the terrain super fast. >Ridable Land Pokémon include Tauros, Stoutland, Arcanine, Rapidash, Gogoat, Mamoswine, Ryhorn, Scolipede, Bouffalant, Tyrantrum, Auroros and Avalugg with a few more surprises (think quadripedal legendary trios) as well as full evolved versions of unrevealed Sun/Moon mons. One of these is Ruffnir, Rockruffs Rock/Dark werewolf inspired evolution.
>Ridable Sea Pokémon include Lapras, Sharpedo, Dewgong, Jellicent, Milotic, Starmie, Alomomola, Carracosta, Mantine (which has an awesome ability where it can jumpe from the water and glide with you for a bit), Gyarados, Wailmer, Huntail and Gorebyss, and Kyogre. Dive does indeed return, as it's one of the primary ways to attain Corsolas mega.
