    Pignition --> Emboar --> Blazorback. Hells to the yeah.

    loving them names but i think i would switch the emboar and pignition imo pignition is a bit too "cool" for the first evo i mean they usually have fairly tame names

    oh noes no one read my post a few days ago ;_;
    ok so basically
    the trailer showed how we get the pokemon (or how it looks like we get them)
    if you watch the trailer, you see that it looks like we get our starter as a Present
    you open the present and pick the starter.... like a..... magic pokepresent

    It looks like we will be getting the pokemon as a gift.

    To me, I can't choose right now of a starter since to me there is a lot more to choosing a starter than just what is listed

    I will use Sinnoh starters for examples

    People choose turtwig since torrterra is an awesome grass/ground type

    People choose chimchar due to infernape being fire/fighting and if this is not your starter, you would have to get a ponyta

    People choose piplup due to empoleon being water/steel

    Then again, some people close thier starter based on cuteness

    Well based off of the Japanese name origins for Mijumaru (Immature + Ball) I have come up with these names...

    Totter (Toddler + Otter)
    V
    Otteen (Otter + Teen)
    V
    Ottult (Otter + Adult)

    I plan to trade the 3 over. But the main Pokemon will be Mijumaru. Why? For the first time I find myself a Cute, adorable, and Simple but great design. I'll take good care of him with Love and Care, To make him stronger.

    Tsutaaja is totally wicked. I'm choosing that one. It looks so cunning and sneaky. I like it.

    That otter looks so stupid. I will probably never raise one.

    thats exactly why i intend to choose tsutaaja..

    i thought that bout the otter too but ive grown to like him now for some reason but im guessing tsutaaja will be the best fighter of the three for some reason

    For my part I will like her:
    Tsutaaja > Mijimaru > Pokabu

    thats the same order i have them in! tsutaajas brilliant and mijumarus great too but i prefer tsutaaja and im fairly indifferent to pokabu

    Shamelessly stolen from Serebii forums :P Credit goes to Delthero of Deviant art.
    For the confused minds, this is a fan art and an awesome one at that. As you can see, the grass starter already grew on me.

    Edit: The artist goes by the name of StarryLatiasGirl right here on this forum and on Deviant Art. Great job LatiasGirl :D

    THAT

    IS

    EPIC

    WIN

    Tsutaja is epic win most likely I'll start with him other wise Pokabu cause I always looooove the fire starter and he is no exception
    I probally won't start with Mijumaru actually I hate it cause it is just a S--- ripoff of Piplup and I loved Piplup he was my fave starter last gen but when seeing it on PS it looked adorable so I guess I don't hate him that much

    Tsutaaja.

    Hmmm, a grass type reptile Pokemon. Sounds familiar......
    Spoiler:

    WUT? :surprised: Tropius is a dinosaur, not a reptile...

    Anyways. I think Pokabu is gonna be BEAST. So I might choose him. Tsutaaja, though, is really cool and has very much potential. OTTERS ARE MY FAVORITE ANIMAL. But there's something about Mijamaru that makes me, idk, not want to pick him /:

    So, i'm really bent on what to choose.

    I really cant choose between Tsutaaja and Pokabu, They both look great. I atleast could eliminate the dumb otter though.

    I am picking pokabu, not just because I like fire types, but it looks like a pig that can make bacon.

    Sceptile is a grass type reptile. Reptile is even in his name!

    Dinosaurs are reptiles.

    So far because of the leaked evolutions I will be going with Mijumaru. If Pokabu evolves into something better I might use him.
