So apparently someone did manage to take some pictures at the launch events, sadly mostly of them are blurry.

Steampunk Battle Subway:

Castelia with a more classic looking architecture and colours. My wild guess is that at some point of development they planned to make it change appearance depending on the game version like Opelucid city:

Castelia's Pokémon Center. The buildings around are brown like in the previous concept art:

Castelia's Central Plaza. Notice again the old-looking feeling in the architecture and the buildings being closer. Little map on the bottom shows shape being more pointy, like a claw (current one is round and looks like a hand):

Castelia again looking closer to it's final design, but with more colours:

Same Castelia as before but at night. Looks as amazing and flashy as Nimbasa. Sadly the picture is blurry almost beyond recognition:

The Dreamyard, which in my opinion looked like something only an idiot would enter because it seems like an accident can happen in any second (a piece of building falling or something). Hatless Hilbert looks like Pokémon Special hatless Hilbert:

Nimbasa city with a different layout, also with a Merry-Go-Round. The Ferris Wheel is smaller, the layout goes around the Subway station, the Musical teather being more flashy, little homes can be seen on the background and there is a weird mountain shaped facility I can't recognize (probably a removed feature). It's surrounded by dessert instead of sea which makes me wonder if they wanted it to be like Las Vegas before coming up with Cony Island (would be weird to have Las Vegas close to Manhattan, they better leave it for a future game region ;D):

Stration City, in which the park looks way bigger:

More pictures:





(lol I made an account only for this because I saw no mention in the Wiki and thought it was Wiki worthy, browsed forums for a while and thought this was the best place to post this).
