5th Gen The Starter Discussion Thread

[Calder]

Idk it seems too much like Treecko for me, sorry. XD;;

And although Mijumaru and Pokabu reflect patterns of other previous Pokemon, those were the ones I liked so...yeah.

@ above, tmi for a Pokemon forum. >>;

Still think its funny that his name matches up with the first thing I thought of when I looked at the ugly clown...

 

[Astinus]

I just saw the video of the starters revealed in the anime, and my decision to start with Mijumaru is further sealed. It's so adorable, especially the little fangs.

Pokabu kind of is just "meh" for me. Nothing really grabs me about it. Smugleaf (the only starter who I can't remember how to spell the original name of) is starting to grow on me. I think its evolution helped that, but then again, its supposed attitude is great.

 

[NA3LKER]

i am most likely gonna pick tsutaja, but i think all three cave the potential to look really cool at thier final evolution

 

[michele]

pokabu, definitely. fire-type pokemon are my absolute favourite, and not to mention it's cute as f**k.
the grass-type reminds me too much of treecko; and i hate treecko.
and that otter thing kind of reminds me of piplup. which isn't a bad thing, but i don't really like water-types all too much.

 

[Kardashian]

Should we pull a Johto or a Sinnoh?

For the starters. Johto was final evolution starters all pure grass, water, and fire types...while Sinnoh were alll dual-types. Which do you prefer?

 

[Weatherman Kiyoshi]

Definately all dual-types.

As long as they don't have another Fire/Fight.
Though Pokabu doesn't look like he's going to do so. :3

 

[Ravecat]

I don't mind either.

I'd like to see another Straight-type set, rather than dual-types.

 

[Kevin]

Cannot believe you all love Tsutarja instead of Mijumaru. <3

 

[Ravecat]

Mijumaru is my favourite. Easily.

I'm not keen on the other two at all.

 

[rocky505]

As long as none of the starters are as crappy as Meganium was I'll be fine.

 

[michele]

nope. apparently pokabu evolves into a fire/dark type. :]

 

[Reptilia]

I'm either going with the water starter or the grass starter. I'm leaning towards the water one since I always pick the water one but I don't like the way it looks so I'm hoping for a monster evolution chain.

 

[HakuXR]

Well, I usually always pick the water type as my starter, but I think I'm going to choose Tsutaaja this time around. I think it looks the coolest in my opinion.

 

[Jerme]

nope. apparently pokabu evolves into a fire/dark type. :]

really says who? your brain? why do people want everything to be dark type..

 

[Lieutenant Unstable]

I'm probably going to go with Pokabu. It's the only design I really like, and the idea of a fire pig just sounds awesome. I really hate the look of Tsutaja, it looks like something I'd want to punch in the face. Like a poodle. xD

However, whatever starter I pick, will just be filler til I can get my hands on Chillarmy and Wooguru(I'm in love with this pokemon just looking at it <3).

 

[Jaiyke]

That saddens me my Meganium is pretty strong thank you very much
and i'd prefer it over Feraligatr anyday so boo on you xP
it'll be pretty strong if you teach it Earthquake and Outrage like i did

anyyway i would also like to see a Straight Type set
but Dual Types are greatly appreciated As long as i don't see ANY Fire/Fight Pkmn at all until maybe the 7th Gen XDDD

and i didn't think of Treecko when i first saw Tsutaaja heehee i thought it looked better
but as Twilight Sky stated.. it might be my love for grass types as well xP

 

[michele]

really says who? your brain? why do people want everything to be dark type..

.....no, i read it here, hence why i said the word "apparently". i could care less if it was a dark-type pokemon; i rarely use them, anyways.
lol calm the f**k down, it's only pokemon lmfao.

Physical moves on Meganium lol.

On-Topic :Treecko confused everyone bout typing. IDK if Tsutaaja broke it's record though.

 

[orange discontent]

Because we want pokabu to be a fire/fighting type again, yes?
/sarcasm

 

[MasterSceptile]

Ever since Blue, I've chosen the grass-type (except for Johto in which I chose grass first, than restarted before the 1st gym and changed to fire) so this will be no different.
