– New medals are awaiting to be won!
– Adjustments have been made to improve the overall game experience.

And 1.9.0 in Hyrule Warriors:

Although it was pretty much assumed at this point, Pokemon Sun/Moon will indeed feature more than one island. That tidbit of information comes from the description of a listing on Amazon.

The retailer mentions:

“Embark on a new adventure as a Pokemon Trainer and catch, battle, and trade all-new Pokemon on the tropical islands of a new Region and become a Pokemon Champion!”

Again, hardly surprising, but it’s nice to have a “confirmation”. Since the location is based on Hawaii, it wouldn’t make much sense to have Sun/Moon only be based around a single island.
