Also, no offense Noipoi Noipoi but Scorbunny seems to be pushed really hard by the fanbase, maybe even Nintendo considering how the starters were presented. I don't hate the bunny or anything, but like with Kirby if comes to "you MUST love it" I tend to not be receptive...

Really? I haven't noticed any pushing, at least not more than the other two.

Maybe we swim around different circles...

Sounds like a rebel to me.

Trust me, I go to many sources for art. And even though I'm more actively trying to find Sobble art (and I appreciate all of it), Scorbunny is the big player. We can at least agree that Grookey got hit hard...

I haven’t really seen him being pushed. He seems just as popular as Sobble. Maybe I’m looking in the wrong places, who knows?

Scorbunny just screams "most pushed starter" to me. I guarantee you when the anime gets to the Galar region, Scorbunny will be the first starter Ash gets.

Rip Grookey

At least it's not straight up **** on like Popplio, mostly it just goes unmentioned.

I'm not sure scorbunny feels like ash material. I think it could easily be with one of ash's groupies tho.

If he does get Scorbunny first, it will probably just be because Ash’s first starters in X & Y and Sun & Moon were water and grass types.

It's too early just to tell from first forms but we could have two scenarios with how the starters are treated:
- One is pushed over the other two, becoming the face of Gen 8
- Two are pushed a fair amount (but not massively), leaving the third in the dirt

In my professional opinion, if i'm being completely honest Scorbunny does have the makings to be "The pushed one". It's design easily lends itself to potential "Too cool for school" evolutions, like Greninja. And as a Chespin boi I can vouch that having your starter be pushed aside for the cool one is kinda annoying.

But on the other hand, it's fluffy.

The last sentence is yes.

I think scorbunny is more popular for people (like in art) just because it's the more defined one out of the 3.
That or people like bunnies.

Wait, was Froakie really the "cool one" at the time? It's been 5 years so memory may be off, but I thought Fennekin was considered that before the evolutions...

The starter Ash gets seems to vary a lot, sometimes Ash gets all of them but depends on his companions. Last series he got Litten and Rowlet, previous one he only got Froakie. Only guaranteed thing is all of them being part of the main roster (Ash and friends Pokemon), so I wouldn't worry about them not appearing.

I agree that Ash will probably get more than one Galar starter, I'm just sayin' I feel like Scorbunny will be the FIRST one he gets.

Froakie itself was generally liked, a few thought it looked kinda weird but whatever. It was Greninja that made Froakie cool, leaving even Fennekin in the dust.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Have you ever considered holding God?
I main a person that can pocket gods
Nah go ahead
well my love for animal crossing started when I was little, it was one of the few First games I have played for GC. I would wake up in the morning before I go to the bus stop, play, go to school, come back, do homework and play animal crossing all day till bed time. rince and repeat.

Then my life fell apart with yelling in the house, thats were i got hooked on animal crossing and played it even more then before. I played GC AC all the way till Wild World came out, bought that too, payed it to death. Again, played it till City Folk then came and again, played it to death. Then New Leaf happend, my friends played it, my gf played it then everyone else dropped it and I was the only one playing it. Still am. Friends dont play it, GF doesnt play it.

I hope with 2019 that I will finally be able to share my love for the game with everyone elae again.

Or Ash could get all three again.
Definitely plausible. I still think it'll be that he has one while his human buddies have the others.

They could evolve at different speeds again, too.
I havent really watched far in sun&moon anime. is it worth watching?

Now with the anime I'm not certain. It may depend on what the evolutions are...
Honestly, there seems to be a pattern with what Pokémon he chooses. Charmander, Totodile, Treecko, Chimchar, Snivy, Froakie, Litten.

Maybe this is a coincidence, but every 3 starters he picks complete the type triangle. Let us leave it at that.

fire water grass, fire grass water, fire..
so could be either water or grass, based on that.

Are any of you art students or grads? If so, I may have a question for you at some point in the near future.

What if there was a bad FE character in Smash?

Like one that wasn't good, like at all?

Wouldn't that be neat, if one of them was just terrible?
:roymelee:

Sakurai learned from his mistakes. And a FE character was never low tier again.

I was never a fan of how the main party always has to have all three starters. But I just hope Ash doesn't get all three, cause then we'd have a repeat of Unova.

Don't think it's much of a pattern. For Gen I, II, and V he got all of them. For Gen IV and VII he got two of them. For Gen III, and VI, he got only one.
