It definitely stands the test of time, I hope you don't change it any time soon it's pretty cool!

I was gutted when I couldn't have one without trading, that's one of the main reasons I got into rom hacking so I could get a gengar without friends ;) #ForeverAlone, so gengar also holds a special place in my heart, probably wouldn't have found PC if it wasn't for him :D

I would like to choose Poison as my favorite typing, and Gastly as my starter.

I'm going to actually try to make some friends on here instead of pestering Necrum. (^_^)

Hey Gamma. Nice to have you here; I know you're not new, but this is my first time meeting you. Love the Gastly line too.

Caaethil May 27th, 2016 9:05 AM

Hey all, my name's Caaethil (if you couldn't tell). I have a welcome thread, but apparently I can't post links. Go read that if you want my life story (just kidding, but that's where to go if you want to read me ranting about my favourite everything).

Anyway, as for types and partners and all of that business, Water is totally the coolest type in the game, and the Froakie line is not only the coolest Water line, but the coolest line full stop. So I'd put Froakie down as my partner. :D

Edit: Look, look, five posts! All right here! :) (I half expect to hit 10 before anybody responds to this, since I'm a tryhard and will get to Greninja before I even touch the rest of the forum).

jappo May 27th, 2016 9:26 AM

Hey man! Welcome man!

Im also a big fan of the water starters, and will almost everytime pick a water starter in a game. What games have you played so far?

Hope to see you around!

My main series games, in order of starting them:

HeartGold -> Black -> White 2 (still never finished it, haha) -> X -> AlphaSapphire -> Platinum (restarted, never beaten yet).

Despite being a comparatively new player in the grand scheme of things, what with all the Gen 1 players I'm sure there are around here, I'm quite the Pokemon nerd and have always been the most knowledgeable among my friends (despite what some might tell you, heheh).

Only time I didn't pick Water first time was in Unova, when I picked Snivy. I was quite a bit younger at the time, and recall claiming that Oshawott was the worst of the three because it looked sad. Samurott is super cool though and Oshawott has grown on me.

Sorry Tepig, you're still kind of meh.

I do have massive nostalgia for Totodile, the 'mon I chose first back in HeartGold. Love him to this day.

I remember when everyone hated Oshawott, but since he's my Poke-Mascot the day I fell in love with him I always felt the little guy had potential, and you have to admit even I didn't expect Samurott coming, as far as what the final evo design would look like.

The Alola starters' current popularity poll rankings remind me so much of Unova's starters upon first reveal, with the Grass-type being the fan fave, Fire-type being in the middle, and Water-type being the unloved "derp" but I know Popplio can sway some fans with its evos.

Part of me thinks this might happen, but another thinks that Popplio will retain the quirky factor we don't see much in final forms. I don't know, I just feel like Popplio has a certain silly charm that it won't lose, and instead it'll keep the circus vibe and look a little bit silly in it's final form, while still being more impressive.

But hey, Samurott happened.

Edit: We're past 10 posts, team!

Maybe we haven't seen many Rowlet fans in this thread yet, but the owl is definitely leading 7th Gen starter popularity polls at the moment.

I was actually thinking of making a new one, but youve convinced me to stick with this one.

Leave it to Gengar of all mons to bring people together lol.

It's been good, I love the female protagonist's design once again, given how diverse the females in the games tend to be. The legendary types have been a bit mixed reaction though, if you ask.

I don't mind the typings; they look pretty cool to me~!

I play competitive though, so, I wonder if they'll be any good?

Well, the competitive community seem to already be frowning down upon Lunala due to being 4x weak to Ghost and Dark. Solgaleo on the other hand seems to be looked at for repeating the "Metagross type" once again, and on a design you wouldn't expect for the type.

GoldenAltaria June 2nd, 2016 10:09 AM

Furthermore, Solgaleo's ability, Clear Body, is the same as Metagross'. I think GameFreak really dropped the ball there, even if Solgaleo gets Fire-type coverage moves; Solgaleo definitely should have had Fire as one of its two types, or at the very least, a different ability than Metagross.

That's clever, I do really like it when I can inflict bad poison on an opponent (8 Don't like it lots in nuzlockes though haha.

.. I joined about 8 days ago, and I've met & talked to a lot of amazing people! I even made some friends. :)
I'm really having fun on this site but I'm still pretty new ~

My Favorite Pokemon typing is Fairy.
My Pokemon partner would be Clefa.

Hello apart! I've seen you around before c: I'm glad you're having a nice time! Cleffa is adorable <3 I'll add you to the OP!

But, I do really like Litten. It's..adorable. I can't say for certain if I'm going to choose it to be my starter pokemon, but it's still very cute.
Umm, what about you?

#teamlitten <33333 But mostly because it's a fire cat haha and I love cats and fire is my favorite type! However, if the evolutions are really cool for the others, it might make me change my team c: Nothing's set in stone.

The circus theme! I heard of that. Rowlet's the kind of director/owner (or acrobat?) and Litten's the tiger jumping through fire hoops and popplio's the clown, right?

I prefer with ghost their defense may be is low but they can make faint the others by their moves before they attack
i will take the misdreavus

Ghost types are pretty cool these days, there's such a big variation compared to in the first few gens of pokémon. Welcome to the forums! I'll add you with Misdreavus c:

Hi Gamma, welcome back c: It's nice when people remember this place and return.

Oh, I sometimes forget that Gastly's line is poison as well o: A bit strange that our very first ghosts were poison types somehow d: Ahah you're a pal of Necrum's then?

I've usually been dissatisfied with the male protagonist designs, but I think he's the first decent one since Emerald Brendan.

The female is the one I usually like due to their diverse designs, and I love how this one has a flower pattern on her shirt. Really good attention to detail when it comes to showing which region she's doing her adventure in, and her bag reminds me of a watermelon as well which I admit is also cute. Don't get why people hate her hat so much though.

Even though the protagonists' designs are nice, I'm really hoping for trainer customization to make a comeback; that was one of my favorite aesthetic aspects of XY!

Hikamaru June 2nd, 2016 10:36 AM

I'll still play as the default female design. Going to likely choose her canonical design (white skin and dark hair) since that's closest to my actual appearance.

moon June 2nd, 2016 10:39 AM

What are their names though?

Did I misspeak somewhere? Woops, no. I think I might have mentioned that Samurott is cool, but nah, I'm sticking with Froakie (so, Greninja at this point).

My name came from this specific part of this specific name generator. And yes, I was looking for a name for my World of Warcraft night elf at the time. I just adopted it later when I decided to change away from the cringe names I chose for myself online back when I was younger.

Unfortunately the protagonist names haven't been revealed yet, so people have just been using fan nicknames. I'm sure they've been calling the male stuff like Sun and Sol, and the female's nicknames at the moment seem to be Moon and Luna. Heck, we may not even know the official names until after the game release.

Uhmm. Hi.. how are you?
..I don't know what an "OP" is but thank you?
I really like cats too! Yes, I agree. I would wanna see what each of the starters looked like before I chose. But I'm defiantly going to be getting Pokemon Sun version.
I can hardly wait ~

Sheep June 2nd, 2016 8:10 PM

I want to get Sun but it's going to take a darn lot of convincing to get the boyfriend to change his mind since we always get separate versions. ; ;' Gonna have to settle for Moon. Though I do love the Moon mascot legendary a whole lot.

Cats are amazing too! I always give brownie points to cat lovers. I wish I could adopt all the cats in the world.... if I had space. 8'c

Dragon June 2nd, 2016 8:23 PM

I have two cats and a bunny, but.. maybe I should adopt a dog too. Like a really fluffy dog. ;v;
