    The types that were speculated (Grass/Ground, Fire/Dark, Water/Fighting), I not only find unlikely, but I actually hope its not true. Pokabu would be at a huge disadvantage to Mijumaru, both its types being weak to both of Mijumaru's types? Not fun. Also, I can't see cute Pokabu turning into an evil boar. A boar, yes, but not an evil one.

    If it was up to me their final forms types would be:
    Grass
    Fire/Ground
    Water/Rock, or possibly just Water
    Tell that to Charizard who had 2 types good against Venusaur, Swampert who had 2 types good against Blaziken, and Torterra who had 2 types good against Empoleon. It is possible. And yes boars are evil haven't you ever seen a wild one?

    1st the snake thing looks nothing like it will turn into part ground. serio it looks more like it will grow wing and become either part flying or dragon NOT SAYING IT WILL just wishful thinking.

    Boars aren't evil the way that Dark types are.

    I said that I hope that it isn't true. Not that it couldn't possibly be true.

    Boars do bite people so they are sort of. And I have heard of packs of wild boars just like how Hyena's are in a pack (Mightyena). Dark would make sense on Pokabu's final evo but not completely.

    Can you show me what the second evolution looks like? I'm quite missing some stuff here but I'll catch up. D:

    The one on the right of Pokabu :)

    [ though that's expected to change a little considering the other Pokemon do look a little different to the ones we know now, but overall the design won't change much ]

    ...I forgot whether there was official art for it yet but I doubt that, so yeah. XD

    I will probably get Tsutaja mainly because he looks cool and could have some good evolutions. Pokabu might have some good ones too though.
    I hope that they call the Pokabu final evolution Pignition. If they don't I'm gonna name it pignition anyway.

    What were your Mijumaru names? I went looking for them, but I am not going to go through 20+ pages to find it.

    By the way my speculation is that Tsutaja's evolution will be Grass/Flying, Mijumaru will be Water/Fighting, and Pokabu will be Fire/Rock. All will be weak to each other in both types.

    Rock > Flying > Fighting > Rock
    Fire > Grass > Water > Fire

    Sound good? Good.

    Well seeing as Mijumaru's Japanese name has to do with the word "immature", his English names I created have to do with age.

    Mijumaru > Totter (Toddler + Otter)I thought it sounded cute...

    1st Evolution > Otteen (Otter + Teen)

    2nd Evolution > Ottult (Otter + Adult)

    Oh ok. I see what you are going for. Though I really don't think that's what the names will be, that was a decent guess. Totodile was along similar lines with the Tot/Toddler thing, but it quickly changed as they dropped the age thing immediately. Mijumaru will undoubtadly go the same route.

    I see...Alright, thanks for telling me. I still think Totter was a good one...

    Charizard had 2 types that were strong against 1 of Venusaur's Grass type... Same thing applies to Swampert and Blaziken... Torterra only has Ground on Empoleon as Empoleon only takes x2 to Ground not Grass... Both types have to do x2 in the "Total Unfairness" we are talking about as a Fire/Dark would take x2 damage from both Water and Fighting types... Gen IV is when GF decided that all starters would end up even at the end...

    Boars aren't evil the way that Dark types are.

    I said that I hope that it isn't true. Not that it couldn't possibly be true.

    Dark types aren't all evil...

    I'm seriously only guy on this site that thinks Tsutaaja might end up being
    Grass/Flying?

    No I speculated him being Grass/Flying and turning into a Quetzalcoatl at the 2rd form...

    By the way my speculation is that Tsutaja's evolution will be Grass/Flying, Mijumaru will be Water/Fighting, and Pokabu will be Fire/Rock. All will be weak to each other in both types.

    Rock > Flying > Fighting > Rock
    Fire > Grass > Water > Fire

    Sound good? Good.

    I still want Pokabu to be a Fire/Steel type xD

    I believe Pokabu will be Fire/dark
    and Mijumaru will be Water/Fight
    but I don't know about Tsutaja being Grass/ground...maybe Grass/Psychic as snake can be hypnotic ;)...

    I'm getting Smugleaf, he just has that really sinister smirk on his face. Not only that, but he is known as a snake pokemon and snakes used to have legs, so I'm getting a prehistoric feel from him. AncientPower wouldn't be out of the question if so, and that would make him an interesting case.
    I don't have a problem with Piglit. In fact, I rather like it, but Wotter just looks atrocious.

    Seeing as how snakes are synonymous to someone sneaky and clever, I'm going to guess that it is more likely to be a Grass/Dark type, perhaps with Nasty Plot.

    Well in some cultures snakes are seen as good...
