STARTER EVO TYPES LEAKED

based on the order it looks like litten will be part ground and popplio will be part fighting

>>26305438
I'm perfectly content with those. The Ground typing pretty much indicates Litten won't stand up.

>>26305416
Where did you find the information?

>>26305438
I sure hope its this way. We dont need another fire/fighting. Popplio could evolve into some kind of violent jester

>immune to Ground

Where were you when based Rowlet was proven to be the best Alola starter?

>>26305459
They data mined the website. CoroCoro confirmed that more big scoops are coming, with a particularly big one on next issue, so we could easily get more info this month.

>>26305416
We also have to consider the possibility that the types are for unrelated new Pokemon, like early route mons.

>>26305438
>order
Based on that it would mean Rowlet ends up Grass/Ground, Litten is pure Fire and Popplio is Water/Fighting.

I don't really keep up to date on this shit, so can a few people just reply to me confirming if this has a good chance to be true or what?

I'm glad Litten isn't going to be Fire/Poison because then I'd have had to pick it despite me always picking the grass starter every single gen.

Would be extremely disappointing. Hopefully the unused typings are for 1 or 2 new Pokemon to be revealed soon.

They always show the early route bug with those thing don't they? The fact that there's no bug type tells me something else is going on.

How do you know if these are specifically for the starters? I think they're just placeholders for whatever Pokémon they're gonna reveal next.

>>26305517
So then enlighten us as to where Flying fits into your oh so masterful train of though

yeah no, this has nothing to do with the starters

if anything ground and fighting will just be types used for the first round of early route Pokemon they'll be showing off next month, middle stage evolutions always come way later

What are you smoking? Fire/Ground is a great type barring the water weakness. Camerupt sucks because of its stats.

>>26305561
Are you retarded?
It would mean Rowlet, a Grass/Flying type changes into a Grass/Ground.
Pure speculation of course, but based on the "order" thing that guy was saying, it's what would happen.

This is getting ridiculous. There's tons of other unused types for starters, so why always fighting?

Anyone who says fire/ground is a bad typing is fucking retarded. Camerupt being shit doesn't make the typing shit. Primal Groudon is broken as fuck, but it did demonstrate a fire type that isn't crippled by stealth rock for once.

Rowlet Grass/Flying → Grass/Fighting (powerful kicks)
Litten stays pure Fire
Popplio Water → Water/Ground (it's slower on the ground so it's evolutions make up for this)

>>26305860

I am also retarded for not pointing out that it also does away with that rock weakness without adding weaknesses to shit regular fire types aren't weak to (looking at you Fire/Fighting).

It would work, but I seriously doubt they're going to eliminate Rowlet's original secondary typing. Have they ever done that shit? I honestly can't remember.

Why would a flying type lose its flying type mid evo?

>>26305902

It's speculation because the ground typing was found there unconnected to anything, as was fighting. So one them is going to be ground and the other is going to fighting, most likely.

How significant is the order?
If it's significant, then this guy >>26305652
probably hit the nail on the head with the owlbear evo path. It isn't all that farfetch'd.

If the order is irrelevant, then Litten is more than likely getting the ground typing with Popplio getting the fighting type.

It really is that simple.

I know fire lovers are worried about getting the fire type, but I can almost guarantee you that won't be the case this time around.

>>26305860
Primal Groudon also has a unique ability that completely nullifies its water weakness you mongoloid

And? Fire types are already weak to goddamn water, 4x doesn't make as much of a difference as adding an entirely new thing to fuck it over. You telling me you're some sort of mongoloid that actually throws out mismatched types hoping for the best? The only other thing ground/fire is weak to is ground, which regular fire types are also weak to.

I'll say it again.

Why is this a thing? Do you people seriously use fire types against water moves to begin with? That shit only worked for Charizard X.

It'll probably be Rowlet becoming Grass/Ground, Litten staying pure Fire would be wicked. Then Popplio becoming Water/Fighting could be neat.

No joke, as a Rowlet fan I actually love the idea of it becoming a grass/ground.

>>26305652
>>26305694
This just sounds awesome as fuck.


I just don't see it happening though. They really wouldn't have give Rowlet the flying typing in the first place if they were going to make it Grass/Ground. Would they?

>>26305980
>implying it wont evolve into a panther since it's mostly black

>>26306025

Not likely, but who the fuck knows. It's not like there's many of either of those combinations, so it could go either way.

>>26306018
4x weakness to a common type is bad. Stop trying to dance around that fact.
Especially when so many things are running scald.

>>26306003
>The burrowing owl (Athene cunicularia) is a small, long-legged owl found throughout open landscapes of North and South America. Burrowing owls can be found in grasslands, rangelands, agricultural areas, deserts, or any other open dry area with low vegetation.[2] They nest and roost in burrows, such as those excavated by prairie dogs (Cynomys spp.). Unlike most owls, Burrowing Owls are often active during the day, although they tend to avoid the midday heat. But like many other kinds of owls, burrowing owls do most of their hunting from dusk until dawn, when they can use their night vision and hearing to their advantage. Living in open grasslands as opposed to the forest, the burrowing owl has developed longer legs, which enables it to sprint as well as fly when hunting.

Huh. The leg thing seems to fit at least

>>26306025
I don't know why people are acting like the flying type is precious or important. Pokémon can evolve into different types as we have seen before, it's not like "oh no we can't change its type now that we made it FLYING".
It's not like owls are birds or anything either.

That's not to say it's likely of course, but it's definitely not out of the equation.

So Litten gains a 4x weakness to Popplio, whilst Rowlet resists its Ground-type attacks.
Meanwhile Popplio is weak to both of Rowlet's types.

>>26306036

The burrowing owl still does fly, though. So that's a thing.

>>26305556
Surely as the only type of the trio with no quadrupedal evo, fire is due one. If anything it not having one yet makes it more likely.

>>26306060
Technically though, you don't need to be a flying type to fly.

>>26306064
What would you do if this big fucker was coming up to you like he was telling you to fuck off?

>>26306033

I never said it wasn't. All I'm saying is what's the deal with acting like ground/fire is the worst when the only Pokemon that had it was garbage and the other was busted. This 4x weakness to a common typing shit doesn't stop a Pokemon from being viable or we wouldn't see shit like Garchomp and Dragonite still being used. It's almost like you can't rely on 1 Pokemon.

>>26306065
I agree, a tiger with lava could easily be fire/ground

>>26306078

M-Maybe they'll add Dark so we can have Fire/Dark. Maybe. Whatever the result, DON'T FUCK THIS UP GODDAMNIT.

I'd be disappointed if Popplio's final form isn't water/fairy. Water/fighting isn't really that good of a combination, unless it has some strange way to make up for it.

>>26306136

I honestly expected a post like this before all the ones about how shit of a typing fire/ground is. Fighting only adds fighting stab to a water type and does fuck all else, which is a shame.

Maybe Rowlet and Litten are both Ground type.

Wasn't that obvious? Last generation was where the starters were super effective against their counterparts (Grass/Fighting > Water/Dark > Fire/Psychic)

Since Rowlett is part flying, it only makes sense water would be fighting

>>26305416
Ground Fire litten fits perfectly with the oil that comes from its fur and its firebreathing theme.

Shitty concept of stuntman in cannon tiger

>>26306555
But that is a bug pokemon. Bugs are known for metamorphosis in real life, so it would make sense that it would be represented in the pokemon world. A flying bird however doesn't lose the ability to fly when it gets older so it gaining a ground type wouldn't make sense if the first form is a flying type. If they planned Rowlet to be part ground they wouldn't have given it a flying type to begin with.

ROWLET WILL BE THE GROUND TYPE SPUNKHEADS, THE ORDER SUGGESTS SO. WHY WOULD LITTENS SECONDARY TYPING BE PUT BEFORE HIS FIRST? ROWLETS GONNA LOSE ITS FLYING AND GAIN GROUND, LITTEN WILL STAY THE SAME, THE POP IS GOIN WATER FIGHTING, ITS OBVIOUS

>>26306710
And a favorite wall like ferrothorn is 4x weak to fire. It sucks, but it's not that big of a deal.

Maybe that is not a seal, but a mole. So water/ground

Going by the order of those pics numbers at the end

Grass > Flying > Ground
Fire
Water > Fighting


...This implies rowlet loses it's flying type and gains ground, Litten stays the same, and popplio goes water/fighting

...I'm very much ok with the sea lion being a fighter instead of another water psychic, fairy, ice or whatever

quagsire, swampert and even whiscash proved well enough that it's a great type

Fire/Ground sounds cool, means it would likely be a quadruped, and I can see those oily hairballs upgrading into giant flaming tar-balls. Normal damage from stealth rock is also top quality.

Water/Fighting gives me hope that Popplio might upgrade from being an asshole clown to an actual fighter that looks cool.

Naming it Vandagyre then.

What connection do these have to the partners pages? Genuinely curious.

To play devil's advocate on the Ground type, many island-dwelling birds have evolved to become flightless over time. This has happened with several species of owls that are now extinct. I could see GameFreak referencing rhat and having the initially flight-capable Rowlet become a Ground type. However, the default explanation is that Rowlet remains a Flying type throughout its evolutionary line.

the owl's going to be some fat disgusting ground thingy, you just know

>>26307343
It's just that those are the only six types that have their own page on the partner pages.

>>26305416
Have any of you thought about the possibility it will only reveal the typing of the second stage, which can still change in the final form? For example, letting Litten only gain a new type in the final form.

It happened that way in DDP.

Litten's final evo learns new move "Lose Head" and literally fires its own head!

How about the evos being like this:
Rowlet: grass/flying
Litten: fire/rock (still can have vulvano theme)
Popplio: water/fighting

Would continue the effectiveness thing the last gen had going on.

That's not the point though, the point is that they bothered making it flying to begin with, which is totally unnecessary if they planned on changing type in two evos.

as long as its fast that is fine. Magcargo is shit because its slow as molasses. and has zero bulk.

Offensively fire/rock is a great combo.

>>26307580
Right? That's what I was thinking.

It having a lot of weaknesses doesn't make it bad per say.

Fire/Ground makes sense for Litten evolution, fits with the brimstone symbol and the oily fur. It will probably focus on special attacks like Earth Power.

Water/Fighting fits for Popplio because of its acrobat theme, its evolution could balance on its hind legs to use fighting type attacks.

Grass/Groulet isn't a bad theory either but the initial design doesn't really speak Ground type to me. Seems like a waste to keep its 4x Ice weakness if they were going to change its Flying type.

flying/ground
fire/fighting
water/grass

Farfetch'd, Gliscor, Ninjask, Pidgey, Skarmory and Starly are the only flying type lines with the move. One of these is ground type. One of these evolves from a ground type. One is steel, the others are brown.

>>26307698

1/6 is a ground type

6/6 are Flying type

Based on the order (especially since Flying follows Grass), it's

Grass/Ground
Fire
Water/Fighting

Probably an ancient land-based owl or something like a kiwi or ostrich.

>>26307815
I hadn't thought of that actually, but other than the type listing I don't really see anything else pointing at the fact that Rowlet will lose its flying type. If it does lose it's type and become part ground, well that means it'll get STAB earthquake which isn't all that bad.

I definitely saw that coming. Although admittedly, I did say Fire/Rock. I knew it was going to be something to fit with Litten's "exploding bomb" motif, and the brimstone mark on his face.

I kinda wish it were Fire/Rock, so that the starters could have a reverse type triangle, with Flying -> Rock ->Fighting -> Flying, but hey, good shit all around.

I've got an interesting idea.

Considering the order of the typings and considering how unlikely it is that Rowlet will lose its Flying type, WHAT IF the Gen 7 starters get Mega Evolutions in the same gen they're introduced in?

Think about it, Rowlet's third evo ends up with a Mega that changes from Flying to Ground. That would explain the order of the image files here and still make sense, no?

>>26308407
oh yeah because you call a bullshit argment that makes no sense an explanation
that's not how it works, a big company's website's not run by 14 years old who upload icons by themselves

>>26308442
It's not out of the question, but I'd hope not since it'd leave Litten's line as pure Fire. Besides, GF doesn't want to blow their load too soon with Megas for recent additions to the Dex.

I don't think those "leaked" Types are the related to the starters. They never reveal the second stages that soon, usually they only come about a couple months before the game (correct me if I'm wrong), so it doesn't make sense that they'd be in the code for that page. They're probably the types of the next critters to be revealed.

>>26308465
>Besides, GF doesn't want to blow their load too soon with Megas for recent additions to the Dex

Honestly, I don't understand why they didn't just introduce Megas for all the starters in Gen 6. Having Megas for some starters and not others just doesn't feel right.

>>26308473
it's the order that bugs me,if this is the case then ground and fighting would be the last ones added right? only time will tell I guess

>>26308508
I think it's to give themselves some time to have big reveals later on. For example, they could probably afford to hold off on Mega Kalos starters until down the line when we get Kalos reboots.

To keep things interesting for the time being, we may get Pseudo-Megas like the Ash-Greninja thing.

>>26308133
>>26308407
>>26308455
the images themselves are timestamped 2012 (eg xy)

It makes perfect sense. Starters have huge fanbases and thus mega starters generate the most hype, especially since a lot are shit competitively. You don't blow your wad all at once.

>>26305916
>denied Gen 7 because it seemed dumb that gen 6 would be the first gen not to get a second set of games for the region, as those have been generally regarded as fan favorites quite often and that seemed like a plainly established pattern.

That's not how probability works.

So considering ground is mentioned before fire, I assume it won't be fire/ground. Unless there's some reason I'm forgetting that make something like that possible?

This is the most retarded reasoning I've ever heard. You have no idea how this site was put together.

This is either
(a) the order they happened to save the images in from Photoshop
(b) a random order decided by their build script for the site. Perhaps based on some other natural ordering (alphabetical in Japanese?)

So Rowlet's final evo will be Grass/Flying.
Litten's final evo will be Fire/Ground or Fire/Fighting (oh god no)
Popplio's final evo will be Water/Fighting or Water/Ground

>>26308807

>>26308879
>>26308908
I'm a web developer. Based on how the Pokemon sites look and work, I do have /some/ idea how they are likely made. Given they named the images icon01, icon02 instead of proper file names, it hints at an automatic site build.

Of course dual types can change, but it's very rare (5 examples out of 721 Pokemon?). It's clearly more likely that the icons are in no particlar order.

Occam's razor is that they were named in no particular order. Rowlet is grass/flying so they did those 2 icons. Then Litten is fire/ground so they did those 2 next, and happened to save the ground one before the fire one. Simple.

>denialfag agenda
lolwut

>>26305537
Bane?

>>26309106
So what am I supposed to be denying? I never said Rowlet can't become ground type, but it's clearly the least likely outcome (otherwise why give it Flying in the first place when the base stage can't even fly?)

You need to take a course in critical thinking.

>>26309477
>base stage can't even fly
but it can?

>>26309452
Occam's razor is that the order is telling. If Ground were really associated with the Fire starter, they would have put Fire beforehand since they would be done with the Grass line. It's easier to progress Grass-Fire-Water than anything else since that's what's tradition. I could be reading into it too much like when they gave Blaziken 'Ice Punch', but we don't know what's going on and taking it on its face is the safest bet.

>>26309477
>but it's clearly the least likely outcome
It's not clear at all. I think you need to take a course in critical thinking actually. Judging by the non-Gray and non-Z and this being the first time since Bulbasaur that we have a dual typed first stage starter, it's not out of the question that GF would have surprises in store for us.

The denial would be if you really wanted Litten's line to be Fire/Dark (or just not mono Fire) or Rowlet's line to stay Grass/Flying.

>>26309477
>but it's clearly the least likely outcome

Is this nigga serious? Rowlet becoming ground type is the most likely outcome by far. The order being how it is only further backs this up.
