found a few interpretations of the starters

Douche grass bird looks awesome and the bear is too cute to be real.
I like the bottom fire and the top grass. Along with the bear, it completes the trifecta of adorableness.

Seriously though, I really want the pig/bunny one to be grass and end up being grass/electric somehow.
 
:lol Hipster Grass type is awesome and must become mine.

That water bear mockup is kickass. It's final evo could be a panda.

Polar bear would be better. Don't think we have one yet do we?


Edit: Also I hope this generation is a return to the douchebag rivals of old. Friendly rivals are lame.

Those are so adorable. :O Too bad that's probably what they won't look like. :\

Yeah douche bag rivals are lame specially when you kicked their ass there not even honest about their loss
Wat. No. Both douche rivals are pretty honest progressively. I mean both Blue and Silver do admit your superiority towards the end. Blue doesn't hold any resentment in G/S to the new Champion either.
 
Silver was a lame rival because he wasn't always ahead of you. Even though you beat Blue he was always one step ahead of you which made him a great rival. Him beating the Pokemon League and becoming the champion before you is what easily makes him the best rival.

Yeah but thats after the game is over heck i think his defeat against Red is what forcefully changed his attitude because getting your ass handed to you right after you become champion is embarrassing.If he didnt chage his personality then he would have just semed mental. Heck he is still a bit of a douche towards Gold.
 
My point wasn't that Lanturn or Luxray look good, it's that the original 151 had a lot of generic, forgettable shit that we haven't forgotten because that was the first.
 
No matter what anyone says, Gen 2 will ALWAYS have the most god-awful designs. Gen 3 was pretty bad, but dear lord Gen 2 made me almost stop with the series. Thankfully they had SOME gems, like Houndoom, Tyranitar, The Dogs, Starters, and Legendaries to balance out the dogshit.

I especially loved his line before you rematch him if you call him up:

"Oh how sweet! You came all the way out here to lose to me!"

Blue is that BAMF. :lol

Thats what I'm thinking . . . gonna do another for it.
Yeah I defently think thats the fire one.

I think the one with the little curly tail is like a pig sort of pokemon crossed with Twilwig. The water one (aka the last one) is probably one with a snout like a duck or something.

I hear this statement all the time but I don't get it. Gen 2 was no different from any of the others really. Some good, some bad, some forgettable.

Blue>All other rivals. He was always one step ahead of you and always a threat. He was there waiting for you at the very top of the summit, the Pokemon Champion. And then you kicked his ass off the mountain. I like you Andrex, but I thought Barry was just lame and and never a threat. His dad being Palmer makes me hate him for being the spawn of Satan.

I think Silver was even more lame though. So Barry>Silver. I never played the 3rd generation, what was that rival like?
 
Andrex said:
I don't even think Gen 3 had a rival.

Btw call him Pearl or Barry.

How's the monotype tourney going by the way? I was thinking of making a normal type team myself, but life gave me the stink-eye.

"Pearl" is the lamest rival I can remember . . . but I don't even remember any of them other then Blue because they all sucked after him.

Pearl was just so annoying that I remember him . . .

Not really a tourney per se, kind of a "challenge free for all." Only a couple of the gyms are set up, I'm almost done with my fourth Pokemon for my flying gym.

Good! I can add another reason to the list of things that's great about Pearl. :P

I thought Palmer was you're nemesis too Andrex! How can you side with his spawn? Or is this a Luke and Vader situation for you?

I actually don't mind Palmer. Maybe if I ever made it past like 25 in the Battle Tower I would, but beating his first set (and getting that 20 BP boost) is good enough for me.
 
People say Gen 1 had the best designs because they were so simple that a child (the target audience) could draw most of them from memory. With a few exceptions, they looked more like they were from a storybook and less like they were from Shonen Jump.
 
Interesting silhouette, I'm guessing these are not going to look anything like what people are predicting though. They're rarely ever close. :lol But fun to see what people are coming up with. :D

It's crazy how nostalgia absolutely clouds people's minds with Pokemon.

Like, people are willing to admit that other unchanging franchises still refined and did things better along the way

But Pokemon? I don't get the logic that Farfetch'd or Electrode are better designs than Lanturn and Luxray.

110% agreed, each gen has it's pitiful pokemon anyway. Will never understand how people say it's getting progressively worse. The first generation has a lot of good pokemon, but from my point of view a lot of the pokemon from the first generation are extremely generic ... and would probably generate a lot more hate if they were considered new now. The next generation designs are more out there and therefore more interesting to me.

Earthshaking scoop!
New pokemon spotted!
Just what are these silhouettes!?
All will be revealed in the June issue of Corocoro, on sale 5/15!
Thanks!

Was hoping they gave hints to revealing other stuff too. :/

Everyone saying Barry is the worst rival is obviously forgetting Wally.
Well, he wan't that bad...just not as awesome as the rest due to being an asthmatic. His team was pretty interesting though:

Most girlish rival team
 
For rivals it's Blue > Silver > Barry > Wally and Brendan/May.

Blue is easily the best rival because he was such a dick, but rightfully so. He was always one step ahead of you, and even accomplished your entire goal before you could. He's one of the few video game villains to actually accomplish his ultimate goal. Yeah, you beat him, but he still got there first. It's like if there's a hot chick both of you are pursuing, and he gets her before you do. Yeah, she eventually goes out with you, but let's face it, it's sloppy seconds.

Silver was actually kind of evil and literally stole Pokemon from other people. His entire storyline is driven by the fact that he only wants to beat the shit out of people (he even considers Team Rocket to be a bunch of posers) and probably spits of his Pokemon when no one's looking. It took numerous ass kickings by not only you, but Lance to finally set him straight. And even when he turns "good" he still only wants to get stronger. He also looks the coolest out of the rivals and
being Giovanni's son makes him probably the most interesting
.

Barry was an annoying weenie, but you get to fight him on weekends for a good challenge and experience points. Plus he uses as Snorlax, which are awesome.

Wally and Brendan/May... just awful. Wally is a sickly sissy who uses a team that looks like it was created by a six year old girl. Brendan/May is so terrible you don't even get to see his/her starter in their fully evolved form. Although I do really like the idea of the opposite sex becoming a mini rival. They kind of teased it in D/P and HG/SS but never fully realized it. I want to kick that Marrill's ass.

I always thought Blue was kind of pathetic.

He became Pokemon champion for all of five minutes before getting ousted hard by you.

Then he became a Gym Leader and you became a cave hobo.
 
Guys, we all know the "Rock-Paper-Scissors" element of the starters. What everyone here is forgetting are the arrows that are associated with saying "who defeats who". These arrows ALWAYS point Clockwise. Here's an example:

Thus, by simple deduction, from left to right the silhouettes are Fire, Grass, Water. Duh.

Edit: These images both agree with me:

That's how I saw the one on the left when I first glanced at the silhouette. Looks like the face is looking towards the right. I didn't see a bill. If anything I think the one on the right could have a bill with that platypus looking tail.
