I know. I instantly loved both oshawott and popplio. Popplio is my favorite starter ever....it's too derpy cute to stand.

Huh, they're actually in their pokedex order in the polls.
I originally didn't like Litten, but he's starting to grow on me. In fact, if he has much better evos then Rowlet, I might even chopse him for my starter.


Poplio... perhaps he'll grow on me, but for now, I think this is the first time I have disliked any of the starters.

Rowlet is the only one I like, but he looks more like a regional bird than a starter. He doesn't really seem planty enough. And I'm not sure I like his beak, but still... I'm pretty sure I'll be continuing my trend of choosing the grass-type.



All in all, a pretty solid trio.

Psychotichaos7 May 10th, 2016 4:19 PM

Definitely going Rowlet and he's getting some kind of Doctor Who related name because bowties are cool haha.

kevcrash May 10th, 2016 5:06 PM

I can't decide, they're all so cute ugh... I'm even considering the fire type starter slightly and I never pick the fire starter, like, ever. I've seen people say Poppilo looks dumb, but I think it looks silly (in a good way). Rowlet is so cute though... I've never been this torn over starters, I've always known right away which I would pick.

Also interestingly enough I've seen people berading the starters since there's been an owl, cat, and seel Pokemon, but there are different types of each species, sooo.....

Anyways, really looking forward to the games, but I am not able to vote yet.

Sothis May 10th, 2016 5:21 PM

Rowlett for me, Popplio is a pal tho.

Rhynn May 10th, 2016 5:39 PM

After having known about the starters for about half a day now... I'm leaning more and more towards Rowlett. Which will be named Pigwidgeon, if the amount of characters fits.
If it doesn't, it'll be Errol. Would have gone with Hedwig if it was snowy xD

Antlers2010 May 10th, 2016 5:59 PM

Well, Litten looks sooo sarcastic, he looks like he's judging the f**k out of you! So i'll for him :D I didn't really like any of them when I first watched the trailer...but after a couple of watches they grew on me :D

Itcheeee May 10th, 2016 6:07 PM

It'll take a while to grow on me, but I almost always choose the water starter in my first version which will be Moon this time. I'll probably get the hopefully-dark/fire kitty in Sun :)

Unknown# May 10th, 2016 6:10 PM

Guys guys, Rowlet is adorable. But I dare say that Popplio is more so, and is in fact the most adorable thing I have seen in a long, long time.

PeeJay May 10th, 2016 6:11 PM

Definitely Rowlet~ But it's mostly because I love birds.

Bay May 10th, 2016 6:17 PM

Popplio for me, most likely. I tend to favor the water starters and Popplio I think I'll like and its evolution. Rowlet is also, maybe if I decide on a second playthrough.

Snoopy May 10th, 2016 6:24 PM

I like all three of them unfortunately (Litten the least since I'm not a cat person, really) so I'm going to wait until their evolutions are revealed before I make my decision, but right now I'm going with Popplio.

Also someone correct me if I'm wrong, but Chespin was the most popular X and Y starter until Greninja was revealed, correct?

Sirius Black May 10th, 2016 6:28 PM

I'm definitely gonna keep up the traditional fire-type starter for first play through - I've done it since Gen 1, it's kind of just gonna keep happening, I really like the Grass-type Owl, but I can't break tradition for it! Plus Litten looks kind of cool, almost as cool as chimchar did when Gen 4 was coming out (Before people really knew what Infernape looked like)

Blayze May 10th, 2016 6:33 PM

I'm definitely going to pick Litten. I just love its design and colors, and I am a big fan of kitties.
I also like the way that the fur on its back stands up when it breaths fire.

Edruun May 10th, 2016 6:44 PM

Rowlet, duh. (: what I'm really torn between now are the legendary/version.

TheLegendaryGuy May 10th, 2016 6:47 PM

I usually don't pick grass types, but i think this game would be an acception. Its so cute and seems so strong. I don't like the look of fire or the water starter.

Zappo09 May 10th, 2016 6:50 PM

I'm going for Owl I mean Rowlet. PS Owls are cool.

Bellsprout May 10th, 2016 7:05 PM

honestly idk i like them all. the water one looks the most derpy to me but its still cute. i guess as of right now im between the grass and fire starter

εcho. May 10th, 2016 8:21 PM

I'm currently torn between Rowlet and Litten. Rowlet is super cute but I'm very much a cat person and fire types have always been my favourites, so unless the final evolution turns out terribly, I'll probably be choosing Litten.

Poké Bean May 10th, 2016 9:19 PM

They are all so cute! Can't wait to see what they evolve into!

But I'm choosing Rowlet for sure! I've always gone for the Grass Starter and Grass/Flying is very neat!

FireSnow May 10th, 2016 9:32 PM

As of now, I have to go with the grass birb, so darn cute and a nice typing to start off with! We'll see what happens once the full evolution lines are announced though.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire May 10th, 2016 9:35 PM

I just hope that the first gym won't be ice...

Cerberus87 May 10th, 2016 9:55 PM

Every time you pick Rowlet or Popplio, God kills a Litten.

So Litten it is.

That would be a huge disadvantage to Team Rowlet, considering it's the most popular right now, but it seems unlikely they'd use a powerful type like Ice this early in the game. It is interesting Rowlet is the first starter with a 4x weakness in the unevolved state.

Spinosaurus May 10th, 2016 10:04 PM

In classic Nintendo fashion I hope Popplio evolves into a circus viking sea lion with a metal as hell theme song.

That is the only way you could redeem this design for me. But my Globox dreams with Froakie were swiftly shattered, so I'm not holding my breath.
