About Zoroark.

His ability is EXTREMELY awkward. Either it'll be mostly useless in-battle or it'll be stupidly powerful, making him Uber.

I have no idea how this'll turn out :/

We don't know what it does yet really though. We've seen shots of him battling without transforming. Its a mystery until we actually see a more in depth look into what it could do.

It could just be a visual change, that COULD mean something if it happens before he comes out, or it happens after... which would mean nothing

It could be "Hi I'm Kyogre", and him ACTUALLY BEING KYOGRE

Who knows how this'll end up :/

That would be pretty scary if that was the case. He would almost always have the upper hand in battle.

I cannot get past the fact that the Sea Otter's head is like....a crystal ball on an alter. It looks awkward, however, I'm definitely ready to give it a shot.
I might pick the Grass Snake this time.
I cannot WAIT to see the Fire Pig's final evolution. Fire Razorback with a mane of flames? Yes PLEASE.

I love the otter one. It was instantly my favorite out of the three. And as for noses go, I think it's cute. Unlike some other Pokemon's noses (.....I'm lookin at you Probopass >.>).

A few years back I wanted to have a move that raised accuracy, now that we have one confirmed I really want it gone.

Dugtrio used claw sharpen.
Dugtrio used fissure.
Foe Arceus fainted.
I think that we are better off with sweet scent and defog.

Well, another good reason why shoddy bans OHKO moves.

Don't OHKO moves have their own accuracy formula, and aren't effected by Accuracy modifiers?

Even if they are, its only from 30 to 40% acc

Fissure has 30 acc, however you subtract your opponent's level by your level and the difference is added to the accuracy. OHKO moves have no effect on pokes that have a higher level than you.

I think more people would like the otter if it didn't have the weird orange nose.
You must be color blind or something. Yellow =/= orange.

Otter is still my favorite (possibly even all-time favorite), and the grass starter is rather meh to me. People scream Piplup syndrome, I scream Treecko syndrome. The fire starter just bothers me a little. As for why, I don't know. I guess it's just an awkward design that doesn't really fly with me.

Stupid Bulbapedia.

Anyway I think I might have found my new favourite Grass starter. The Fire one looks great too.

Edit: The snowmans nose is orange on my screen.

Claw Sharpen is going to up the usage of Haze in competitive battling by 200%.

Calling it, right now.

It'd be amazing if Illusion sent Zoroark out as a different pokemon for its first turn, like it pretends to be another pokemon in your party or something. Ultimate ninja pokemon. You could set up SO many shenanigans to own enemy leads by hitting them with an attack type that your disguise shouldn't have. Like crunch from a Metagross or something.

Home.
I find it funny how people who disliked the way the 4th generation started (myself included) are looking on these new Pkmn with a sense of optimism... while those who absolutely cherished the 4th generation look down upon these new reveals, calling them uninspired and have nothing in accordance with generations passed.
Funny world we live in, fufufu...

I don't mind the 4th Genners (yes, even Chimchar -_-) and I still think these ones are okay as well (for the most part).

Agreed, lame generalizations are lame. I loved the gen 4 starters and I like these guys too (except the boring pig).

Funny thing is the pig is probably my favorite. lol This is probably the first time I have to think hard which starter I'll use.

Tsutaja is the most smug pokemon I think I have ever seen, and I love it for that.

P.S. It is still no Zorua/Zoroark though.

Great avi.
Yeah, someone called him Smugleaf today, and I personally love that name. Probably be his nickname once I get the game.

Still hoping Pokemon will follow the trainer still, new screenshots haven't shown it yet, like they did with the HG/SS starters.

*fingers crossed*

I'm hoping the Pokemon will follow you too. Maybe they made the function optional this time and that's why we don't see anything.
