Permission received from DHR-107 to post this ahead of release. Was initially going to do it last week, but decided against it due to the influx of leaks and potential new trailer. With last night's trailer appearing to be the last one, and the games coming out in two days, I figure it would be okay to post now, since the first mission has started.
Festival Plaza
Since we currently do not have sufficient information about Festival Plaza, please refer to the SM Festival Plaza thread by Rapti for the time being. This thread will be updated accordingly when we have new information about the USUM Festival Plaza.
One of the new features of Festival Plaza, however, is the Battle Agent, found at the bottom of the Japanese Festival Plaza page. The US page offers the following description:
It appears that the Battle Agency can be accessed inside the Festival Plaza castle, replacing the man who allowed you to reorder your shops and change your music in SM.
Global Missions
As with SM, Global Missions will be a feature in USUM. Be sure to link your game to your Global Link account beforehand for double the rewards! Also, doing so before January 30th will get you a free Master Ball!

A New Battle Facility: The Battle Agency!
The Battle Agency is a new facility where you can enjoy battling by easily renting powerful Pokémon.
When you don your sunglasses and become an “agent” at this facility, you can take part in Single Battles using rental Pokémon. You'll have three such Pokémon to command as you try to defeat the three Pokémon in your opponent's team. Try to win your way to being the best of all the agents!
The Pokémon you can rent for these battles will increase as you mingle with other players around you or over the internet. Connect with formidable players, and you’ll be able to rent powerful Pokémon. So communicate with lots of other players, choose the Pokémon you like best from those available to rent, and aim to become the top agent!
