Anyone who thought there was a possibility of anything else do not understand Nintendo use Pokémon to sell consoles of WHATEVER the fuck Pokémon's appearing on. There was no doubt as soon as S2 dropped, the very next new Gen game was going to be S2 exclusive.

Every single game has to be worst than the last. The few remaining good pokemon designs will finally be gone this gen. They already did the same to the human designs. Now all that's left is to destroy the music.

Gecqua is clearly the feminine and it's passable but doesn't feel like starter material, more like Route 3 fodder
Browt is probably the worst given that they already did grass owl once before and this one just looks like bert from Sesame Street

4/10; All in all they'll probably be forgotten quicker than the Gen 8 trio, everyone needs to apologize to the Paldea starters

>suddenly
boomer from the post below yours here.
The cycle went like this

1. lol catz
2. doge
3. discord cats

Late lolcatz era 4chan started to hate them and associated with 9gag and other sites that "stole memes" from /b/.
They discovered doge and it became the new funny animal.
During doge times, the shiba inu and other "funny doggos" and "look at this pupper xD" morphed into peak reddit+tumblr memes though, so 4chan abandoned them again.

Now cats are cool again but their popularity is fading again until adult gen alpha will resurrect them once again.

Doesn't matter, game will still run at 10 fps, have pop in, and shitty de-saturated reused models with an incomplete pokedex where half the mons are unusable, overpowered, or only available through dlc. All the mons will have 3 frame looping animations that you only get to see in a 30 foot wide area in every town where you can feed them berries or noodles or some shit. They won't follow you around and the shiny odds will be changed to 1/200. Breeding will be removed in favor of a streamlined experience. No gyms, no elite four, instead the trainer will have to fight the 5 island kahunas to teach you the meaning of friendship. Your rival will be the gender you didnt pick and will give up after two battles and give you their starter because they believe in you. The underwater section they showed will be a 2 minute segment during a minigame where you have to collect seashells for professor palm. No post game content. The new gimmick is that your pokemon can use the latent energy of your good will and love to enter a temporary state where they summon 5 miniature versions of themself that know a 20 base power version no effect version of one of your known moves. The game will release for 80 dollars, you will preorder it, and you will either be disappointed and wonder where all the magic went or lie about loving it in a vain attempt to convince yourself that you didnt waste nearly 100 dollars on a game with half the features and content of a 20 dollar game from a developer who actually cares about making a good game

these are the best looking starters weve had in a looooong time and that is incredibly sad.
its literally just rowlet.. sobble but good and a literal pomeranian dog.
after everything that happened im just glad to see something not hideous. something normal.
its outrageus though how they picked the same idea again twice. you could pick any animals.. but they do this shit again.

>but but that isnt an owl
it doesnt matter. it just looks like it could be one anyway and its the same fat short body type. they completely failed at making this look like a specific cool unique bird. they could have picked any interesting bird and design something that looks different but its just.. that.

Anti-Pokemon always bitch and complain no matter what, so play that cringe fail of a game called slopworld. I rather call it FAILworld
>>
>>58971322
Browt's the weakest but he's grown on me since my initial reaction and I feel like he might have a decent final evolution. Pombon comes off as just an orange dog, it feels like it was tailor-made to be the generic cute marketable toy starter. Gecqua is my favourite by far and feels most like a classic starter. My only worry is that I feel they'll fuck up his evolution line and make another ugly inteleon/quaquaval/incineroar. A decent line up so far by modern pokemon standards.

This is the first time I think ever where none of them has jumped out at me. I can't tell if I like them or hate them. As of right now I'm probably leaning towards the hecking pupperino. I'd need to see the finals desu. The gecko could be good but I somewhat doubt it after the last 3 gens of horrible water starters.
