Which of the new starter Pokemon do you like the most?
- Thread starter Phendrana
- Start date
Sprigatito
Though I love all of them. I'm a little concerned about what my green cat will evolve into, but I can't imagine them screwing up the duck (who I imagine will evolve into some sort of admiral duck) and the croc (who will just be a bigger croc) so I have back ups if the Evos are bad.
I'm not sure I've actually liked a final cat evolution since Skitty.

That's easy to explain, actually. They want the initial starter forms to go Grass > Water > Fire > Grass and Water/Flying would have stopped that. Grass/Flying is still weak to fire so it wasn't a problem but Water/Flying isn't weak to grass so that's a problem.
Final evos don't care about that cycle so much but they want to teach type advantages to newer players so they like to keep the cycle for the basic starters.
Quaxly big time. Then Fuecoco, then Sprigatito. I like all of them though, I feel like they nailed the designs this time around.
Fuecoco but I'm also a fan of Quaxly
Sprigatito is def going to evolve into some humanoid monstrosity

Fire croc is top tier, though I kind of get design vibes of that apple dragon from Sw/Sh.
Sassy duck is looking pretty good, not completely sold on the hat-like protrusion but I imagine it'll evolve into some kind of Spanish sailor/buccaneer/pirate bird
Not too fond of grass cat. Looks pretty generic, a blend of 5 other, similar pokemon

Fuecoco is an adorable goof and I hope they keep him stout and bulky. Love the design so voted that.
I'll probably pick Quaxly though since I'm just a sucker for ducks and water types and my friend will likely call dibs on fire. That being said this is the first set of starters since Johto that I might even go through the effort of restarting to play with all 3. Given their evolutions don't turn into Peoplemon.

The Fire starter is my favorite design of the three but the worst "starter" because the design is too complex for a starter. It looks like it should be the pseudo legendary instead.
The water starter us just Ducklett in a hat, it's a really underwhelming design.
Grass cat looks like a classic starter, it gets my vote.

Fuecoco. One of the best starters by far. Quaxly is also pretty great. Sprigatito is cute, but also it looks generic to me. That said, I know I'll bite my tongue when we finally see the final evolutions and the Fuecoco one will be horrible and Sprigatito will be the best.
Edit: It will be worst than Totodile, I can feel it. Totodile was my favorite until I saw the final form... Then Cyndaquil became my favorite one.

The Bubble Bobble-looking one.
As an aside, I can't read Sprigatito or Fuecoco without a Mexican accent (I know the game's are Spain but I'm SoCal Hispanic) and I can't read Quaxly's name with one.
So reading "Sprigatito, Fuecoco, Quaxley" is super funny to me every time.

Fuecoco for me. I've not picked a fire starter before, I usually go Water/Grass, but not really feeling Quaxly or Sprigatito
Fuecoco for sure.
I also like the cat but I 100% expect it's final evolution to be some sexy bipedal thing.
The duck looks like a nerd.

I'm glad it seems that Era is on the right side of history.
I will never understand the love for the grass starter- it's just a green cat.

How is Quaxly NOT winning? It looks charming and hilarious and I love it. The grass one is ok, I guess. And the little fire crocodile is cute. But the duck, the hat. Come on, hahaha. It's like a legally distinct Donald Duck. That should be an immediate vote in-favor right there.
