I've got a theory for the starter trio, hear me out. I think they're based on different types of entertainers, similar to that whole circus act idea but more refined.
Rowlet is a magician, do to the whole bow tie thing going on. Bit of a stretch but it fits with the rest of my theory.
Litten is a fire breather, perhaps one of those tribal ones due to the whole markings thing going on.
My reasoning for this is that Litten is said to spit fireballs due to the oil in it's fur. Some Firebreathers use oil to breath fire.
Popplio is obviously a clown.
What do you guys think?
Seems pretty solid to me.
>>26274665
I think you're pretty damn late to the party.
>>26274694
rowlet the ring master
>>26274665
This theory seems to be quite popular and the general consensus for the starters. I actually like the circus act theme. It's a unique concept
But Rowlet is more of a knife thrower if you ask me.
>>26274694
lmao
>>26274694
Litten just doesn't look like he wants to be in this picture.
>>26274665
Rowlet is obviously the knife thrower. Come on OP.
What if Rowlet is a croupier and the theme is Las Vegas (casino+shows)?
>>26274721
>>26274753
Damn, OP got double cucked.
>>26274747
>>26274721
>>26274753
Grass type Water Shuriken, anyone?
>>26274721
I think it's reasonable to be both.
>>26274771
>inb4 they'z is samefaggin y'all!
Pic related. It's obviously a knife thrower.
>>26274778
Naruto confirmed?
>>26274793
Knife throwing =/= Naruto.
>>26274793
Forgot pic.
I hope they're less obvious with the secondary inspirations this time around.
They were so hellbent on the "Muh RPG" trio in Gen 6 that the starters ended up all looking like horrifying fursonas and only Greninja managed to look somewhat good.
>>26274803
Grass type water shuriken = hidden leaf shuriken = Naruto. Again, Naruto confirmed?
>>26274778
Bullet seed you dingus
>>26274852
Grass/feather kunai...
>>26274833
Yeah, that makes sense.
>>26274778
>Rowlet is physical
>Grass Shuriken is special
Screencap this
>>26274852
Bullet Seed is stronger and has no priority.
If you don't know anything, don't post.
>>26274876
Capped and sadfaced.
>>26274879
Please anon, be civil. Not everyone has your particular brand of autism.
>>26274912
You tried to be condescending and failed.
Poor you.
>>26274778
It already gets a new move called "Leafage".
>>26274928
>tried and failed
Oh, so you decide what succeeds and what fails now, huh? That's some pretty hefty autism ya got there. I don't fail, I simply win. Ya got a problem with that?
>>26274951
Leafage sounds more like a general grass type move than a signature move.
>>26274665
You may be right
>>26274721
>>26274753
The fact that it's face is an apple core make that even more likely since hitting an apple off of someone's head is the oldest trick in the knife thrower's book.
>>26274928
Kek.
>says it failed
>responded
>obviously worked
>>26274981
Damn, you're right! Nice catch.
>>26274960
>autism
>autism
Memes is all you got?
>>26274981
Exactly!
>>26275004
Aw, is da baby mad? Do you want your binki? Aw, it's ok, it's just a big fat btfo in ya face. No one will ever know.
Screen cap this, anon got mad when he got btfo.
>>26274665
Rowlet is an equilibrist, friends
>>26275004
>meme's all ya got
>autism this bad
>can't handle a btfo
Go lurk some more newfag.
>>26274981
Holy shit
>>26274981
> what is a barn owl
>>26275077
>>26275054
Show me where I got btfo.
>>26275086
>what is autism
>>26275107
> what is butthurt
>>26275086
the strange beak makes it an apple core fampai
>>26275104
By responding like you did, pic related, you btfo yourself anon. You said it didn't work, but the fact that you responded, and especially the way you responded, this means it did work. Therefore, you got btfo. Deal with it.
>>26275139
Well that explains the beak color.
>>26275124
What are you on about?
>>26275155
Forgot pic.
>>26275124
>what is dipshit
>obviously you
Hush newfag.
>>26275155
But you trying to be condescending by saying bullet seed is what I said failed.
Not you calling me autistic.
>>26275224
I was responding to the"if you don't know anything don't post" part, and i wasn't being condescending at all. I was being sarcastic. Not everyone is you, being rude isn't going to change that. Who cares if he uses bullet seed or not anon? Literally no one.
>Legit starter discussion turns into dick measuring contest
Jesus this board is cancerous
>>26274721
Card magician maybe? The leaf tie just makes me think of a magician suit and now you mention the knife throwing, might aswell be cards
My guess is Rowlet become a British secret agent.
00wl7
>>26275300
Shut the fuck up anon, me and >>26275224 are having a legit discussion, and you being a dick because you don't have one is not helping.
>>26274747
I guess Litten isnot lit
>>26275315
>>26274829
>I hope they're less obvious with the secondary inspirations this time around.
What do you mean? Until Braixen, Quilladin, and Frogadier were revealed, the RPG concept wasn't even obvious
>>26274816
>>26275178
>mobile screenshots
Since when is this allowed?
>>26275086
>>26275371
>because you don't have one is not helping
Okay
Next level of the owl is an apple theory: The bowtie is actually the leaf of an apple tree since the shape matches.
>>26274694
Yeah I even mentioned I am aware of the circus concept, but I think Rowlet is going to be a magician instead of a ring master and Litten a firebreather.
>>26274665
A game theory
Thanks for watching
>>26275995
We already had a magician starter.
>>26276080
Fuck off.
>>26274665
Most Likely possibilities:
Rowlet
>Ringmaster
>Knife thrower
>Magician
Litten
>Tiger/flaming hoops
>Fire breather
>Shot out of cannonball guy (tail looks like a cannon wick)
Popplio
>Sea Lion doing tricks
>Clown
>Juggler
Other possibly options any of the three could be but don't immediately seem are strong man & acrobat/trapeze
>>26276175
Delphox was more of a wizard than anything.
>>26276175
Have we? I can only think of Delphox, who is a witch, not a magician.
I hate that starters have themes now
>>26276212
Popplio is an acrobat though.
>>26276221
A shitty wizard who no fewer moves than a ninja and knight.
>>26275939
>CRABAPPLE
>mfw Rowlet gets Crabhammer because of this
>>26276270
*knows* fuck.
>>26276269
Well I mean, clowns can actually cover jugglers and acrobats as well.
>>26274665
I like the idea that Litten is the daredevil because of its bomb theme
>>26276212
Oh hey, what if Litten ends up as the Strongman?
>>26276495
FIRE
I
G
H
T
I
N
G
>>26276556
It don't necessarily have to be fire/fighting. But let's be honest, there's a possibility that GF may want one of these to represent the strongman, and it probably won't be the magician or the acrobat.
>>26276590
Conkeldurr is already a strongman so there probably won't be one
>>26274829
Literally no logical reason to complain about yet still complaining
>>26274981
This is reaching
>>26276257
Why have you keep on playing since generation 4 then?
>>26276742
Gen 4 had a theme?
>>26276714
Is it really?
Litten is the cannon. Its tail is the fuse. Ever thought about how unique its "whiskers" are designed? That's because it's whiskers are meant to resemble pic related
>>26275995
>I think Rowlet is going to be a magician
Does that mean it becomes grass/psychic instead of grass/flying?
>>26279192
Possibly, I feel like grass flying is far too vulnerable of a type for a good starter but I may be wrong
>inb4 charizard
>>26276782
>Internet explorer
>GWX
>>26279192
It's. .going to be fennekin v2.0 i swear
>>26276753
they're all based on myths
Empoleon is Neptune
Torterra is the World Turtle
Infernape is Sun Wukong
I have a feeling that the final evos for all 3 will be fire/fighting water/ice grass/flying Yeahhhhhhhhh
