Its really hard for me to pick who I want as a starter. I see so many people that like Rowelt and Litten, but not so many that like Poppio. I think back to when X/Y came out and I was in the same position with trying to see who to pick. Than someone leaked the evolution and I went with my starter from there. I think that before the game gets relessed we will know the evolutions and that will make a final choice for people. As of now I would pick Poppio. Its cute, a water type and I think may become something powerful.

When I went to pick up the Darkrai Code from EB Games, one of the staff members said she would like Litten.
|
for sure o will go with rowlet! Before the information was given i was playing pokemon sage demo there the grass starter has same typing and i wonder that in sun and moon also same typing of grass and flying shoukd come soooooo..... no option i will go for rowlet!
|
I vote for poplio because he might turn into a ice type in his later evolutions. and since rowlit is a grass/flying poplio will have some advantage if he has the ice type moves.
|
Even though I tend to gravitate to picking the fire type starters, at least in first-time playthroughs...I think that trend might be broken this time around. As of right now, I really want a Rowlet. It's an owl, I just can't resist.
|
Normally I'd go Fire > Grass > Water here but Litten as a gutsy, fluffy mammal Fire-type Pokemon seems over-done to me, we have Cyndaquil and Fennekin (close enough) and Litleo/Pyroar from Kalos and I'm not too hyped over the design. :/ It would be a toss-up between Popplio and Rowlet - it would depend on their evolutions. If Popplio ends up with a cool looking Walrein-esque final evolution, I'd pick it over the the other two, no question.
|
When I first saw the starters, I was a bit thrown off. Not only did they look odd, but they looked a bit similar to one or more of the fake leaks we had seen prior...
Over time though, they quickly grew on me. I quickly became a huge fan of Litten, I wasn't really sure of the other two, though. I was and still am not very big on Rowlet, but a little while after, Popplio grew on me, and I mean really grew on me. I looked at it one time and it just caught on to me how absolutely adorable it was! <3 Litten is absolutely my favorite, Popplio isn't too far behind, and Rowlet's kinda down there. Its design doesn't really do much for me. It's kinda cute and all, but I think I'd like it more if it were proportioned more like a normal owl than its "borb"esque shape. Who knows though, we've yet to see their evolutions, we may see 'em tomorrow, but as for now, and I think will be always the case, Litten is definitely my first choice in the first one I'm going to play, Moon. If I ever get to playing Sun, I'll undoubtedly pick Popplio! |
I'd hate to jump on the bandwagon but I'd immediately choose Litten.
Rowlet has a chance, actually. Popplio just looks plain ridiculous in my opinion but the evolutions could manipulate my views. |
The edgy hot-topic cat has stolen my heart <3
|
Popplio's appeal to me is that it's design is rather simple when compared to Piplup and Oshawott (don't get me wrong, I love Piplup and learned to like Oshawott).
|
I saw some excellent fanart that convinced me of Litten's superiority.

If Litten goes Fire/Dark, I'm picking it. Otherwise, they'll all probably just sit in my PC.
|
In the end it all depend on which Hidden ability and move set they get and also their stats.

Let's hope they get something more useful than what 2 of the 3 Kalos starters got.
Magician and Bulletproof were not that great compared to Protean. |
I am definitely choosing Popplio, again mainly for the design (loving the circus vibe)
Water and Grass have always been my go to starters! |
#Rowlet4Ever! It's so cute and I love owls! It also seems like it'll be a nice addition to my team :)
|
I can see Litten getting Intimidate. Popplio magic bounce. And Rowlet Gale Wings. If Rowlet gets Gale wings as it's HA it's popularity will solidify.
|
Ehh.. I don't know.. Both are.. um.. not bad, but ya..
And the design of Litten is kinda lame.. :d |
I'm glad to know im not alone choosing Popplio. Though, I really hope it's later evolutions do not resemble a clown. I feel it could have much more potential, but as long as it doesn't evolve into looking like a clown.
|
My Starter's gonna be Litten, for sure, I love cats :).
|
I'll be picking Rowlet because I always like to go for the grass starter. However, Popplio is certainly my favrotire of the three.
|
Rowlet! Unless popplio gets a cool evolution.
|
I'm leaning towards Popplio but it could change once the full Evo lines are revealed. I probably won't get Litten though as I feel some starters will always end up unloved. Litten is the most popular currently so I'll probably stay with Rowlet and Popplio.
I do hope they won't drop the ball again like with Emboar. That design felt wrong for Tepig. |
