No, they haven't used Shikoku. And that forum post doesn't say they're using Kyushu (which they have used for Hoenn). They have so far used the Kanto region on Hyoshu, Kansai on the same island with Chubu in between them, the island of Kyushu, and the island of Hokkaido. In addition, Orre is in North-West Chubu and the Ranger games take place around Hokkaido and in other places.
I for one would be excited if this connected to Cianwood city since it's on Shikoku. This is unlikely though because the one piece of art we have of the official world map isn't Japan, it just uses the regions.
Oh, and the Ryuku islands is Sevii Islands.

EDIT: Oh yes, this also means we get Hiroshima, although it's doubtful they'll go anything with it as they ignored Nagasaki. The part of Kyushu with it was just cut-off. :P

EDIT AGAIN: Holy wait maybe Orre is where Hiroshima was and that's why it's all desert. D:

Looks like there's no need for name translations, one post on serebii says the grass starter's name means: "Maple Teeth", the fire starter: Something along the lines of "Fire" and "Cow", and the last means, again: Otter and... another word I don't know yet.

Oh... so it's not a pig, but a cow. I like the looks of a maple Pokémon though... will it be red colored?

Blargle. The pokemon community has imploded with scans now, you can see one here.
Comments:
The fire starter is, apparently, a pig. And a cute one at that. *shocked*
The grass starter has huge eyes, but otherwise, I like it.
The water starter... ? I can't describe that brown parasite on its face but what I find cute are those freckles/whisker 'dots'.

And yeah, the protagonists are said to be older than the usual game protagonists, both mentioned by pokebeach and serebii.

EDIT:
It seems that the otter has a clam on its belly. CUTE!
I feel sooooo happy that I am the only one online when all that news was posted.

WHAT. HAS NINTENDO RAN OUT OF HAIRSTYLES TO CHOOSE FROM.
The brown parasite is something known as a nose.
I think the fire one is a cow.
The grass one looks like Grovyle.

EDIT: If Japanese can be interpreted with Chinese, then the title that says "3 New Starters REVEALED!!!" should say "3 single of one raise revealed"

A handy online Japanese translator has given a few clues to the meaning of their names:
Tsutaaja (Grass-type) - Tsuta - "Ivy" and Kaja - "Young Person"
Pokabu (Fire-type) - Pokapoka - "Warmth throughout the body" and Buta - "Pig"
Mijumaru (Water-type) - Mijuki - "Inexperienced" and Maru - "Circle" or "Round"

So, instead of 1337 Flower Lizards, Fire-breathing dragons, and Cannon turtles, we get Inexperienced spheres, a Warm pig, and a Young Ivy?
Uhhh....

Cannon Turtles!? Where!? I want one!!

Those are just the Japanese names. No need to be angry at those. The English names will be much more horribly punned.

EDIT:
*In David Attenborough's voice*
Here, we see the extremely rare Water Starter without a large, but usually harmless tumor/fat leech attached to its face. (An edit on serebii, it looks much better that way, right?)

Are you serious? Or sarcasm?

The pic without the fat leech/parasite/tumor/turd looks much better.

A little of both, actually. I cannot recall any cannon turtles on the internet. Care to explain?
And also, it couldn't hurt if they didn't make the nose incredibly huge and brown, a tiny blue one would've upped its cuteness factor a lot.

I meant Blastoise. I was referencing the Gen I starters.

EDIT!

Prof. : Welcome to my lab! Which of these Pokémon do you choose to be your companion for your new journey?

Player: Hmm.... Well, I like fire types, can you tell me something about the fire starter?

Prof. : But of course! The fire starter is a pig... that is warm. And has long ears.

Player: Ugh... how about the water one?

Prof. : The water starter is a cute little white otter...

Player: It's cute! Alright!

Prof. : ...that has a huge brown leech/tumor/parasite/turd for a nose.

Player: -_-'

Eww. The Grass one is pretty good, reminds me of Flygon a bit, but the fire one is a Pig like I feared (-_-) and the water one is a- what is that? A bear/otter/piplup?

I didn't even notice you referencing the Gen I starters, I was thinking along the lines of a Torterra with a huge cannon on its back. :P
I wish the water starter's final evo would be the most badass of all the final evos so that nose can redeem itself.

EDIT:
A Sea Otter, seemingly holding a clam.

Oh god no. They're hideous. They really did go with a pig and otter... now if the otter had a tiny blue nose, it would be better, I admit.
*sjrug* Looks like I'm going grass. It looks awesome. And it's not a beak!

The pig's not that bad. The real pigs have just given fictional pigs a bad name. Plus, it could be edible.

My thoughts...

Grass starter: cool!
Fire starter: cute, but kinda meh. I hope it evolves into an ugly warthog (maybe Fire/Ground?)
Tumor-nosed water starter: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!

I think the flaming boar piglet that someone had posted earlier looks better than the actual fire starter, but it's not bad. Kinda cute, even. The shell on the otter is a nice touch, but it'll have to grow on me. The grass starter looks like it has a weird shape to me, although it might not help that we can't see all of it (like how its nose is stuck in the gutter of the page. What publisher thought that was a smart move?)

I like the piggy. In fact, I want one.

But maybe that's just me an' my love of Grumpig
