Just watched the video (without sound), actually looks really cool. The walking style and realistic-proportioned characters look out-of-place, but in a good way, it's refreshing while not making it a completely new game. The battles also look interesting, the effects and actual Pokemon movements look great, probably even more so on the actual 3DS.
My only concern is that there may not be much new going on in terms of mechanics. I mean Pokemon isn't a series that should change too much, but I always like seeing extra or new features (like the subway and rotational battles in B/W). Then again since this is the first one exclusive to the 3DS there will probably be heaps of amazing stuff with motion control and the camera and all that.
I don't really mind Chespin's design much, I mean it is a bit strange and I can see why people don't really like it but personally I think it's OK. To be honest I'd even choose it as a starter Pokemon (mostly because I like humanoid Pokemon/Pokemon that stand on two legs), I rarely choose Grass types too so it'd be a nice change.
As for the legendary Pokemon I guess they're pretty cool, not really special or exciting for me. The only one I've ever actually caught is Lugia in Silver though so I don't have much experience with others, thus I can't really make a proper opinion on new ones.
