I honestly don't know why this hasn't gotten more attention on many different medias because I honestly believe this is probably real:

(credits to _ShinyCharmander_ got this from him)

(but he won't reply and tell me where he got it ;-;)

(Charmanderrrrrrrrrrrr)

Anyways.

Many are going right now, that's fake. Most of the time things like this are 100% fake because things like this don't really happen in Pokemon, and spoliers like this one are often faked by fans. Plus, it should have been announced in bigger words, right? Serena going to Alola, or appearing, is a very slim chance, and appearing like this is odd.

It's 99.9% real (in my opinion).

BEFORE YOU YELL AT ME LET ME BACK UP MY OPINION. PLEASE. DON'T DIS AMOURSHIPPING I'VE HAD IT WITH THOSE THAT CONSTANTLY JAB AND LEAVE RUDE COMMENTS IN THE COMMENT SECTION DIRECTING IT AT THE FANDOM AND NOT THE SHIP. NOT COOL.

Now that's over, let me explain.

Well, recently I have taken the study of Japanese up, and I was able to read the text in this picture. Next to "Serena" says "Serena" (lol), and below says "Kamingu suun" which directly translates to "Coming Soon." Above are the Sun and Moon logos.

The Japanese is correct. In faked spoliers, the Japanese is often wrong, and the fact that this was in the correct writing system and everything helps me know that this might possibly be real.

Well, now you're asking "Where would this appear, then?"

Hahahahahaha E3 literally just happened and is happening at this moment.

For those that are unaware, E3 is a convention held by Nintendo that often announces new games and/or game updates. This is often a time that Pokemon announces new things for their new games, and here we are at Sun and Moon. This might have possibly been a picture taken at E3, especially considering it's a brand new spolier (as in yesterday).

Adding on.

It's blurry and cut off. If you're going to bother making a spolier, why not just make it look perfect? Why not make it look good?

Plus, faked spoliers are usually faked about CoroCoro and this is not about CoroCoro. This is E3, people.

This does honestly look like Serena and says Serena lol. Many are commenting about how her eyes are brown, not blue.

Well, if you've ever looked at Pokémon canon art, ALL their eyes are this color (actually, they're grey, not brown -_-). May and Dawn both had blue eyes and their eye color changed in the game (it may have been backwards order, don't get me wrong). It's okay if it's changed in the game.

Next.

The text obviously isn't added in.

Those are all blended in well. They weren't added in.

Yeah. I've got to do some research.

I think it's real, though.

It's hard to two how old she is in this picture (in my opinion, older) but I mean it's Nintendo who knows. That could be art of your in-game mother right there.

And then...

...Heir also...she also... she pointed out that she looks a bit pregnant.......

...it may just be false art, don't kill me...

...Nintendo being tricky...

...I've been laughing all day...
