Who's Your Starter?
Grookey, Scorbunny, or Sobble? inb4 all y'all hate on grookey |
I'm probably gonna go with Sobble.
|
Sobble master race, fight me
|
I CANT PICK HONESTLY
|
I'm gonna wait and see what final evolutions are like, but right now my heart says Grookey even though I hate monkeys. We'll see if it stays cute.
|
i stan grookey
but im also waiting on final evos to pick but i'll likely stay picking the grass starter either way |
I thought Grookey was the cutest
|
I'm really impartial to all three of them but yeah final evos is probably when I decide!
|
Grookey was the cutest for sure but I'm probably going to have to go with Scorbunny
I like the bunny design, even though I've never really had a use for fire types I'll find one for this game if Scorbunny has good evos. |
Sobble and Grookey maybe!
I might get both because I can't decide if I'd love a Sword or a Shield. Fire starter standing on 2s again lol. |
Think I’m team Sobble atm
|
Sobble rn but I could see myself picking any of them. A great group tbh
|
Scorbunny is my far and away favourite but I quite like Sobble too. Don't care much for Grookey (it gives me Chespin vibes) but then I hated Popplio too and Primarina became one of my favourite starters ever so everything is still on the table at this point.
|
I’m mostly going to decide once the final evos come out. I usually pick Water though this time I’m considering switching to someone else unless the Water one’s final evo ends up being the best of the 3 or something, I dunno.
|
Too many choice, i don't know what kind of Pokemon i would choose.
|
Surprised at the lack of fans of the Fire type 😱 I'm definitely going with the Fire bunny, unless it's evolutions look like crap.
|
Scorbunny is the only one of the three I actually like, though I could still choose Grookey. I don't really like Sobble, but I still want to see the final evos - and their typings - first.
|
I'm still yet to decide as well, because all three starters looks pretty nice so far. So far I might possibly have an eye on Scorbunny atm.
|
Either Scorbunny or Sobble... honestly, I really can't choose. All three of them are cute!
|
I like all of the starters! I think I'll give Sobble a slight edge, though... but I'll wait for their evolutions to be revealed.
|
I loved Sobble as soon as I saw him :DD
|
It's most likely going to be Scorbunny as I often go for the fire types. But really, this is the first gen in a while where I really like the look of all three of them, so who I pick could easily change between now and then.
|
Either Scobble or Grookey, but I'm leaning towards Grookey. Scorbunny is adorable but doesn't really call to me
|
Honestly, it is probably going to change with the last stages, but currently I am going with Scorbunny as I think it has the best potential to have an awesome looking final stage.
|
TEAM SOBBLE
|
Grookey for sure. Keeps my grass first streak alive!
|
None of them really hit me. I fell in love at the first sight with at least 1 Starter Pokémon since Unova, but this time, I have a really hard time choosing. Scorbunny looks more like a mascot for a new Digimon game than Pokémon. The bandage over its nose also indicates it will be Fire/Fighting. I'll wait to see their evolutions, but right now I like Grookey the most.
|
Right now its Sobble for me! But its going ro depend on other pokemon that they announce and their final evolution types. Like rowlet in alola was my fav but i chose poppilo in the end for primarinas water/fairy typing.
|
Depends on the Gym's and their Types honestly but at first glance, I'd probably go Fire. I typically go Grass or Water ironically so its time I change my ways if I opt to get the Switch and Gen 8.
|
I CANNOT choose!
|
Once again, fire wins this one. I'd go with Scorbunny... if Switch's weren't so dang expensive.
|
My heart belongs to Scorbunny this time around. I've always been fond of the fire starters anyway and this generation is no different.
|
#TeamScorbunny and #TeamSobble
Grookey isn't bad, but I'm gonna wait to see its mid stage evolution first before I decide if I like it better or not. But, so far, for sure, Scorbunny is my favorite. You all remember that fake starter leak from last year w/the Fire Rabbit and Grass ape, right? Look how nearly correct that fake leak was. |
Scorbunny is life. I even drew fanart already looll.
|
Team Scorbunny!
|
First place: Grookey
Second place: Sobble Did not finish: Scorbunny |
#TeamScorbunny IF it's not fire fighting
Otherwise #TeamSobble |
SCORBUNNY 100%
|
I added a poll btw y'all!
|
I’m going to wait and see what the final stages look like and what their typings are before making a final decision. If I had to chose right now, I’d probably go with Scorbunny.
|
There isn't one that stands out to me right now. It's unusual because there's always one I like a little more than the other two.
So my decision will be based on their final evolution this time and if it's still a tie then I'll decide based on if there are other new grass/water/fire Pokemon I want to use on my team. |
GROOKEY GANG RISE UP
|
You know what, I'm going to vote for Sobble, since I've already said that I'd be giving it a slight edge.
|
I feel like the bunny will have the coolest final evolution, in terms of looks....
I could be wrong. It was guesswork with Gen 2, 3, 4, & 5. Although subjective, I was accurate in my gauge of the starters, by looks. |
Team Sobble 4 me
|
Definitely Scorbunny for me.
|
right now, I'm definitely going to go with Sobble. It's so cute. But, who knows - it might change as addl evos are introduced. I do have a tendency to go with water starters tho.
|
I think they are all cute and have potential for some cool evolutions. I'm not Team-anything, but I am slightly partial to Sobble. We'll see though!
|
Sobble saiyan race.
|
Anxiety lizard, I hope I like the evolutions enough to stick with it.
|
Gonna wait on the final evolutions and their typings to decide. Though I have to say that something about a baby water lizard that looks like it might cry at any minute makes me want to pick it up and love it forever.
|
I figure I’ll probably go with Sobble regardless of the final evolutions. I realized a few generations back that I always go with the water type, so I don’t see much point to debating over my choice. So far, I actually like all three starters, which hasn’t been the case for me that often of late. So, Sobble it is for my main game (probably Sword).
No idea which starter I’ll go with in my second version yet. |
I just really like Sobble, I hope its evolutions are cool
|
v likely scorbunny
if i end up really disliking the evolution for whatever reason, then sobble :3c |
I like Scorbunny and Sobble. I'll probably give the slight edge to Sobble because it's a water type and it can use surf. The final typings could definitely change my mind about all three. Grookey looks just ok to me. Overall I like them as a group. I plan to get both versions so maybe I'll use Scorbunny for Shield.
|
AS of now, I'm loving the colors of Scorbunny. Im hoping that since the shiny of litten was white, the shiny of scorbunny will be black...
I also want to see evolutions before I choose.... even though I know I restart play throughs and choose differently every time. |
I'm really torn between Scorbunny and Grookey...Seeing their final evolutions might help me decide.
|
Continuing with the tradition even though I never owned a Pokemon game in first place, I'd say the fire type. I mean c'mon, that fire rabbit's just begging me to take him on my journey.
|
The grass type's my favourite, which is usually the case. I wonder what it'll evolve into - oftentimes I like the evolved stages less. I like Scorbunny too though, I've been waiting for a fire bunny for ages! I remember creating one myself when I was still into that years ago. I don't like Sobble much in itself but I does have potential to turn into something wild.
Tl;dr: I guess we'll know in time |
None of them particularly jumped out to me during the reveal, but if I had to choose one right now, it'd be Sobble I guess. We'll see what happens as time goes on.
|
I'm leaning towards Scorbunny more and more, so I'm probably actually going to go with him. My earlier post, I wasn't really sure. :x
|
Other than Tepig in Unova, I will forever be loyal to Grass-type starters, hehe. So naturally, I'm going with Grookey! :D
Nothing will ever quite replace Rowlet for me, though... </3 |
Grookey will be my starter, and I'll be getting the other two from the GTS, assuming there is one!
|
Sobble. That is, unless the other starters seem as promising as they evolve.
|
I hate all of them, but I'd have to choose Scorbunny, despite usually picking Water starters (my only usual exceptions being in Hoenn and Sinnoh)
|
Definitely aiming for Scorbunny unless the final evo sucks (please no Fire/Fighting!)
Totally going to name it either Frith or El-ahrairah because of Watership Down. |
While the later evolutions could obviously change my opinion, Scorbunny is easily my favorite of the three so far, which is a bit surprising as the Fire-type starter has never been my favorite in any generation. Grookey and Sobble just aren't all that exciting to me, though I have seen fan art of both that has helped me improve my opinion on them a little bit, at least.
|
I simply can't decide between Sobble and Scorbunny!! >m< (Oops, did I hate on Grookey there) I like Sobble's personality, and its camouflage powers, but Scorbunny - Scorbunny calls to me. Guess I'll have to wait for the final evolutions.
(I wonder if I'm drawn to Scorbunny because it reminds me of my pre-gen 7 favorite Pokemon, Victini?) |
I like all three, but something about Sobble makes me want to choose it. Of course, the evolutions once revealed could change my mind.
|
I love all 3 of them! Although, Sobble has my heart. Grookey would be my second choice! I generally prefer grass types but Sobble's adorableness is undeniable!
|
Scorbunny! I have a tradition of using fire starters since Gen 1.
|
I don't care if Scorbunny turns out to be fighting. I just want it's evo to look good. I'm definitely switching to fire this gen.
|
I choose Scorbunny, because it is the cutest one!!!
|
Sobble because I'm always choosing water first. Gen 3 is the only exception.
|
Still going to wait until the final evos come out. Water is usually my choice, but I feel like doing something different.
|
I usually wait until I see the final evolutions before making a final decision. But going off of first impressions, I'm leaning towards Sobble, because it's precious and I wanna protect it.
...I just realized I always somehow end up picking the water starter. |
I think all 3 are super cute, I really would not mind any of them at this stage. It is a tough call, I went back and forth, but I think if I had to choose today it would be grookey. That little chimp awwww,
It is of course early to say because the final evolution will decide everything. I was Team Litten for Alola, but when I saw everyone's final form Primarina won me over. The same thing happened in Kalos, I was all set for Fennekin-- and liked Braxien and Delphox too...but when I saw Greninja I was blown away. I could change my allegience again. For now Grookey for me. |
The thing that happened to me last generation is happening to me again this generation. I say I'm picking the grass starter without question, and then I start developing a soft spot in my heart for the water starter, and I'd bet anything that I'll be using Sobble my first run and not Grookey.
|
I'm probably going to choose Sobble.
|
I think I am going to go with Sobble. Just it looks like a water alternative of Treecko, and Treecko is my favourite starter.
|
I have always picked the Water starter, so Sobble is naturally my choice.
|
grookey is my king. ugh his mind
|
I love them all, but I'm going with Grookey.
|
Grookey is my man so far but if it's evolution is horrid then it will be Sobble. Love Grookey's design the most , Sobble is dead second and Scorbunny is my least fave.
|
Personally, I can't really settle yet until I see the last stage evolutions. (Remember how Litten was so desirable but it ended having one of the most horrible last stage designs?)
Normally, I'd say Scorbunny as it seems to be the most promising, BUT as I like reptiles I'll go with Sobble, hoping Game Freak are not going to disappoint me. They are good at disappointing us... |
Glad I know I am not the only one who thinks sobble is the bee's knees. Even though for me I knew right away who I wanted and still do, looking at all three it still is a hard choice since all three are so great.
|
I'm going with Scorbunny, I naturally lean towards the fire type starter.
|
Dang it, Grookey is starting to grow on me...I can't wait for the final evolutions; it's too hard liking all three starters equally! :pouting: :tongue-poke:
|
would always like to gear towards the grass type or the water type but for this game, im going for sccorbunny. i still have faith that it won't turn to a fire/fighting one :P
|
Team Grookey 100%. However if one of them is a ghost in their final evos I’ll definitely play them in my second run.
|
I always like fire types better(except if the water type is oshawott or froakie).So here scorbunny would be my choice.
|
Sobble all the way is that even a question?
|
I can't decide between Scorbunny or Sobble. I guess my deciding factor would be the final evolution.
|
For me, it's not a question. I always go with the Fire starter on my first playthrough! (except for gen 6 cause Fenniken sucks) If I replay the game, I'll definetly go with Sobble.
|
I'm going for Scorbunny. First thought was Grookey, but my girlfriend convinced me on picking Scorbunny. I'm curious about the evo's.
|
From the first forms I think I'm going Scorbunny, but I'm really interested to see the type combinations for the final evolutions.
|
sobble squad but also lowkey scorbunny too
|
I would love to say Sobble but i also very much like Grookey. A friend of mine is 100% convinced I'll pick Sobble as my starter so I feel I should pick Grookey to prove them wrong. :(
|
Sobble no doubt
|
Scorebunny because I'm always picking fire one as starter.
