CoroCoro hinted that Rockruff was connected to the starters, right? So if the thing that's special to Rockruff is that it has different varient evolutions it would make sense for the starters to be the same.
So maybe what we've seen is just the "night/moon" evolutions. After all, they've gotten rid of gyms so they seem to be willing to mix things up a bit.
