Gecqua is said to be hoity-toity, that mon is not going to be Fighting nor knight themed, if any else Gecque is going to be a charismatic masquerader and most likely either Psychic or Dark or Fairy

It's not even fun to speculate starter types anymore since you know they'll just slap Dark, Fighting, Ghost and maybe Fairy on again

>>58984336
Hmm. I want somewhat unique route this time around, so no Ghost, Dark and Fighting.

Browth is either Grass/Flying or Grass/Ground. Grass/Electric would be welcome as well, but doubt it since the usual Pikachu clone shilling etc.
Pombon screams Fire/Fairy. Fire/Ground is another option, but in a Water filled region I doubt they would go for it.

Gecqua is either Water/Poison or Water/Psychic.

Alternatively, Grass/Steel, Fire/Fairy and Water/Poison could work, but so far nothing suggest 'steely' for Browth. Maybe the second evo will show a hint.

Why would that matter?

Because it is 4x weak to Water and could very well limit its in-game usage. Desolate Land Groudon fixed this obvious problem.
>>
>>58984490
Dark and Fighting starter fatigue I totally get.
Ghost is borderline. Getting two Fire/Ghost starters in a row with Hisuian Typhlosion sucks for Fire-starter fans.
But Fairy? Nah, we only have Primarina. Unless you want to count Mega Meganium, but even then, that is just two.

That said, it would be nice to see types never used with the starters at all before.

>Sound if that actually does become a thing. That Stereo Rotom makes me curious.
>>
>>58985380
Stereo Rotom is a Pokopia thing. It has that Mosslax as well and nothing suggests It's Normal/Grass or anything. By this logic Professor Tangrowth and the chef Greedent should get a type change to something.
>>
>>58985310
>Grass/Steel, Fire/Fairy and Water/Poison could work
Nope. Grass starter would lose super-effective STAB against the Water starter.
If Gecqua goes Water/Poison, which I can definitely see happening, Browt will have to become part-Electric, Ground, or Psychic.
If Gecqua goes Water/Psychic though, Browt can go pretty much any typing. As long as Pombon can still hit it super-effectively.
>>
>>58985403
Grass/Steel would make Gecqua useless against Browth if the Poison route happens. Which should be fine in exchange of SE damage. In theory Torterra could do GROUND against Empoleon, but lost its resist to Water and Empoleon either dents it with Hydro Pump or wrecks it with Ice Beam.
>>
>>58984336
We just got a Water/Fighting.
They are not doing Fire/Fighting again.
So it's Grass/Fighting.

>>58985436
>starters secondary type need to take each other into account as if they existed in their own separate dimension, despite the fact the game has already expanded to hundreds of species by the point you get those
retarded

Kill patternfags

>>58984336
Grass/Fighting, Fire/Fairy, Water/Dragon
They literally gave the Paldean starters the same secondary types as the Hisuian starters, so they will take the Z-A starters secondary types and give them to the WW starters. That said, I would want them to be Grass/Ground, Fire/Fairy, and Water/Poison

Gecqua's eyelashes and shimmering eyes feel very femmy/magical girl.
I feel like it's going to go in the Meowscarada route into some sort of elegant and lean/feminine magic themed Mon.

Pom feels very Fuecoco, probably staying on all fours but developing the fluffy theme into like a three headed Cerberus with the additional heads made of flame/fluff.

Browt feels like the it can go either the bulky/stern chesnaugtesque warrior type or the lean/cool special attacker with a noctowl vibe, where the eyebrows expand into like colour feathers like Hisuian Braviary.
>>
>>58985436
The only thing that matters is if the Grass starter has SE-STAB against the Water Starter, the Water starter has SE-STAB against the Fire starter, and the Fire starter has SE-STAB against the Grass starter.
Gen 4 maintains this because Torterra has SE-STAB against Empoleon, just not Grass STAB. It does not matter that Torterra lost its resistance to Water, just as it does not matter that Empoleon is weak to Infernape's Fighting STAB.
The starters MUST maintain a type advantage. This is not me saying it for myself, but I genuinely believe this is GameFreak's logic when designing starters.

>>58985642
I do not disagree, but it is fact that GameFreak balances the starters around each other to a degree. Whether we like it or not.
>>
>>58985694
Browt and Pombon are Twink, Gecqua is Bara
>>
>>58985724
Based on what? The starter designs don't seem to imply that. (Not that they imply much.)

Gecqua's eyelashes and large purple eyes
Pombom's superfluff
Browt's leafy brow

These are the only significant traits really.
>>
>>58985337
I can buy this. I just wish the obviously feminine starter doesn't end up looking like salazzle
>>
>>58985694
That is what I meant when I said charismatic masquerader because that is what Meowscarada is, Gequa's hoity-toity personality suggests it'll be prancing around in a fancy ballroom with a mask and fancy dress going ah ho ho ho which it pretty much did that with the happy laughing animation we seen
>>
>>58984336
pombon is going to be a waifumon cheerleader
gecqua's gonna be a waifumon angsty goth girl
and browt's gonna be a waifumon big booby karen
>>
>>58986022
What's wrong with Salazzle, you gay or something?
