Barf
I'm still going with the fire one like I always do, even though he's by far the worst looking

But is this the first time in Pokemon history that all 3 starters look like shit?

 

[Neoxon]

The return of customizable trainers!

 

[Kinsei]

Litten can attack with flaming hairballs! Its fur is rich in oils and immensely flammable. Litten grooms itself by licking its fur, and then uses the collected fur as fuel for fireball attacks!

Popplio can snort out balloons made of water! Watch it spin water balloons into a playful battle strategy!

Gross. I'm just waiting for the attack where Rowlet pukes on you.

Nope, that was gen 6 if you take their final evolutions into account.

 

[PhazonBlazer]

Might be the first time I start with grass.

 

[ArgyleReptile]

I'm betting Rowlet will have a full suit and top hat combo for its final evolution which alone puts it above the other two.

Unfortunately, because I'm a creature of habit, I'll choose the lame ass circus seal.

 

[Vanillalite]

I like that they fixed the character models.

The starters are semi meh.

The world looks much improve.

The graphics though. Ugh. Need that NX handheld ASAP so we can get beyond these graphics for 2016.

Game Freak finally listens to fan demand for once? Color me (no pun intended) shocked.

 

[ash_ag]

The English site has more info and art.

Those are so nice! :o

 

[Snkfanatic]

The starters are the same for both games right? Not hugely familiar with Pokemon so I am unsure

 

[NHarmonic.]

Those legendaries are palkia/dialga levels of awful.

Also, Boss doggie watch litten become a shitty liepard clone soon enough. #teamcuteowl

 

[Rafavert]

Noticed that as well! Guess costumization is back.
Liking the new proportions.

 

[udivision]

The return of customizable trainers!

I... don't think we should jump to that conclusion yet.

 

[ReplacementPelican]

Popplio is love.

 

[LuuKyK]

Those are some terribly uninspired starters. Ew. Hard to choose.

 

[Dark Cloud]

It looks so good! So far I love the owl the most.

And that Hawaii region is niceeee!

 

[Jintor]

yo the japanese ad is sick!

 

[linkandzelda]

Wait European trailer says we get it 5 days later? Urgh, f that.

The content is really exiting but are they seriously still punishing Europe for those fucking retailers breaking street date 2.5 years ago?

 

[MrSaturn99]

Pokes are growing on me fast (LITTEN!). Very interested in how they'll utilize the tropical theme/new 3D engine.

 

[vinnygambini]

Grass for me and the graphics look slightly improved woot

I hope we get different islands like Kanto.

 

[LegionAgent]

I've always been a water starter man through and through, but I don't think I can love this one after Frokie's evolutionary line. That was just my favorite thing ever. Also, it just looks silly and I'm already bracing myself for Walrein look a like (which isn't a bad thing inherently, but would be repetitive)

 

[entremet]

Game Freak finally listens to fan demand for once? Color me (no pun intended) shocked.

The only reason they were not in ORAS was because it was a conservative remake.

 

[Azuran]

The starters are the same for both games right? Not hugely familiar with Pokemon so I am unsure

Moon fans should be stuck with only the water starter for having bad taste in everything.

 

[YianGaruga]

A fucking Grass/Flying Owl starter is uninspired?

What are people smoking

 

[DrROBschiz]

I like that they fixed the character models.

The graphics though. Ugh. Need that NX handheld ASAP so we can get beyond these graphics for 2016.

Yup it been beyond time for an upgrade

3ds is fucking struggling man

 

[-Horizon-]

i guess this is our rival?

Looks like another bro

The starters are the same for both games right? Not hugely familiar with Pokemon so I am unsure

Yep, starters are the same snk. The cover legendary and a few other Pokemon will be exclusive to each version though.

 

[CentralScrutinizer]

Those are some terribly uninspired starters. Ew. Hard to choose.

I think they're the most interesting starters in a while.

 

[Neoxon]

I... don't think we should jump to that conclusion yet.

I can have a black trainer again, it's close enough.

 

[BassForever]

I see we're at the every new pokemon is SHIIIIIIT phase of the pokemon gen cycle

Fire > water > grass for me

 

[Fraxin]

The look of the world seems good from what is shown.

Those pokemon designs look really awful though. They need to hire new designers.

 

[Kinsei]

The starters are the same for both games right? Not hugely familiar with Pokemon so I am unsure

Yes. As of right now the only exclusives we know about are the sun lion (exclusive to Sun) and the moon bat (exclusive to Moon).

 

[Andrefpvs]

Woah, I really like the brown girl, it matches her smile.





The hell am I saying

 

[Ferga]

Going water this time. Who doesn't love a fucking clown seal?

 

[Geg]

I don't see how people think the owl is the best-looking one, I saw it on the video's thumbnail and seriously thought for a second it was one of those obvious fakes that people make and put on magazine scans to pass off as real. All of them look like that tbh

 

[Snkfanatic]

Yep, starters are the same snk. The cover legendary and a few other Pokemon will be exclusive to each version though.

Thanks :3

 

[Trojita]

Fire Cat is the best one. I say this as a dog.

 

[Laieon]

I've picked water first every generation since Gen 1. Looks like that streak has ended.

I don't like cats at all, so FireCat is out.

Bowtie Owl is the only remotely appealing choice.

The Overworld and Protags look good though.

 

[gerudoman]

The overworld looks legit great, can't believe we are talking about a Game Freak game lol.

 

[notaskwid]

Moon fans should be stuck with only the water starter for having bad taste in everything.

If I get this game that's what I'm doing anyway, so good idea.

 

[Kouichi]

Aw yiss Rowlet is the best

 

[SliceSabre]

The starters are the same for both games right? Not hugely familiar with Pokemon so I am unsure

Yes starters are always the same. Certain legendaries and certain pokemon are version specific though.

 

[Belgian Dude]

Love how they all have a bit of 'performer' looks. Popillo being straight up those circus seals with the balls, Rowlet being a bit more like a calm performer with the bowtie and Litten's "spitting fire" image reminds me of a performer as well.

Really disliked them at first but they're growing on me so fast.

 

[Exterminieren]

THEY'RE ALL SO GOOD

I CAN'T CHOOSE

 

[Moon Presence]

The starters are....hideous. Curious about their evolutions though

 

[Geg]

I think they're the most interesting starters in a while.

Gen 6 was only one generation ago, so no

 

[Crayolan]

i guess this is our rival?

Dude looks really cool. He better be.

 

[Rafavert]

According to the site, the grass starter knows a move called Leafage which it knows when we get it. The other others have Water Gun and Ember respectively. New move or mistake?

 

[Quonny]

Worst starters. Worst protags.

Absolutely disgusting.

 

[NHarmonic.]

Fire cat better be a fire witch. The new fire/fighting.

This will be our doom no more fire/fighting ever plz.

 

[zeromcd73]

So damn ugly.

 

[Snarfington]

Rowley is my fuckin DUDE

Owl Pokémon are the best <3
