Triple battles are fun. The only thing I don't like about them is that if your Pokémon's on the right side of the field, it won't be able to hit the Pokémon that's on the left. And those who are on the left won't be attack the ones on the right. In my opinion, it would've been a whole lot better if all Pokémon had the chance to just attack each other without any sort of restrictions.

I'm not a big fan of rotation battles, though. They're just too confusing for me. D:

I really, REALLY hope they give Pyroar the stats and moves he deserves... I'm quite worried about him. Surely a kickass lion doesn't deserve to be in the same BST tier as Mightyena.

Well, I can't picture a pre-evolution for Meowstic, but what if Meowstic is actually the pre-evolution? If I remember correctly, not all the rumors that were spread at that time were entirely accurate, right? So what if Espurr is actually Meowstic's evolution?

And same as above, I'm hoping that Pyroar will redeem cat Pokemon and be strong :)

Hehe, I was actually leaning towards Froakie from the start, and I'm really happy with Frogadier, but I'm gonna wait a bit longer before I decide. Braixen seems really interesting with her stick, I really love that she can use it in battle and I think the final evolution will be based off a witch. And while I agree that Quilladin doesn't seem like much right now, that name is so cool and it makes me very intrigued about it's final stage, I'm really hoping for a knight-like Pokemon, clad in heavy armor, Grass/Steel would be a great typing.

Well I have completely fallen in love with Meowstick! I was hoping for a new feline Pokemon for this generation. I can't decide between male and female, though. Braixen is pretty cool too, but I'm wondering whether or not they will change the design depending on the gender because it's a little... you know, feminine looking?
Frogadier is alright I suppose but Quilladin's design is just terrible! I really hope the third stage evolution makes up for it.

As for the other two, I don't really mind them. Pyroar is a little strange but not intolerable-looking.

And that concludes my opinion of the new Pokemon.

I don't see why they would need to change Braixen's design depending on gender just because it looks more feminine. Both Snivy and Chikorita's evolutionary line looks pretty feminine, but that doesn't really bother anyone. I think it's good we finally have a fire starter who isn't totally masculine. It's a nice change. Plus, if it's really based on the concept of a witch, it makes sense they head toward a design that isn't so male constructed. It's really hard to tell exactly what the three of them will look like in their final stage though. That's what I'm most interested to see, since that's the stage that usually makes it or breaks it for some people.

I can see Meowstic getting an evolution, there's still room for a smaller, kitten-like Pokémon.

I was going to post that yesterday, but I hesitated in fear it not being related to the topic. This is another reason for me to consider using a Pyroar if I don't choose Fennekin or Charmander.

Just remembered that Junichi Masuda is appearing on Pokémon Smash tonight, even though he will probably just showcase what was revealed in CoroCoro there is still hopefully a small chance that we might get something new.

We might get a few new things. I still wouldn't expect much. I kinda hope he tell us how many new pokemon there are.

I guess you're right. It's just the slender legs, womanly figure and the way the fur is shaped like a dress, and a few other new gen six Pokemon have a different appearance depending on their gender. Also I didn't know it was based off a witch, so that explains it. I'll still be restarting my file on Pokemon Y if it turns out to be male, though. :P

Initially, I want Chespin but when I saw the evolution...Oookay.

I'm gonna choose Froakie instead not only it looks cool, but also to eliminate my problems on getting a Water-type or Pokemon that can swim

This is just a guess on my part, but maybe branch and vixen? Branch because it has that stick in its tail that it uses as a wand, and vixen because it's a feminine-looking fox.

Edit: And The Leafeon gets there before I do. I guess that's what I get for going to get a drink before submitting my post >.<

Interesting... I would never think "vixen" cause that's pretty much exclusive to females.

The name actually comes from braise (which is French for live coals) and vixen.

Braixen may be a combination of braise (French for hot charcoal) and vixen (female fox).

Well, that's your choice but i'd rather wait 'till the final evolutions are revealed before I judge the starters entirely.

Anyways some stuff you'd like to know coming from Pokémon official facebook page:

It's awesome to see even more news spawning out of nowhere. I'm not entirely sure what will show up, 99% sure it's X and Y related though. What's unfortunate for me is that I have class during that time. I guess I'll have to hop onto serebii in between classes.
