Froakie's entire aesthetic was bubbles and that's dropped completely when he becomes Greninja.

And Wartortle to Blastoise? What the hell is that even?

I really wanted to believe in the hairball as reason for it to be more of a special attacker and disregard the leaks.

But then a trailer showed its moveset comprising of Lick (which is understandable as a cat) but then Fire Fang, and Fire Fang makes me uneasy since it's physical.

Yes they're basically forms but they're completely different.

How does that in any shape or form fucks over the split evos theory?

>>28774770
ty for pointing it out anon... really helpful

>>28774750
What? They technically are; just in separate versions.

>>28774682
Moreover

Cyndaquil turns from a hunched up shrew with a ball like stature into a ferret thing why. Coulda carried on the ball like stature and gone for a fiery wheel gimmick but no why the fuck would you want something interesting.
Crocanaw adopts a caveman looking aesthetic and then just drops it immediately. Why?
Sceptiles tail looks unwieldy as all fuck compared to its prevos, why?
Lets not even touch base on samurott since it makes so many people so salty with how much of a change that was.

split evolutions are two or more different evolutions

That's literally it.
And rockruff evolves into two different things.

>>28774841
They're different on everything except some key parts of their design and the type.
And the type will probably change, since the're forcing day and night so much and rockruff is kind of a poster pokemon, then we're likely to get more stuff like this.

>inb4 muh patterns

>>28774501
Thanks for the new meme
and saying >inb4 before a legitimate point doesn't negate it

Now, I went to the official site, and it's description is as follows:

>Logical but also passionate, Litten always remains coolheaded and doesn't show its emotions on the surface.
I'll get back to this in a sec

>Litten can attack with flaming hairballs! Its fur is rich in oils and immensely flammable. Litten grooms itself by licking its fur, and then uses the collected fur as fuel for fireball attacks!
We already saw Lucha using a similar attack in the concept art, though it looks more oil based

>When the time comes for Litten to shed its old fur, it all burns up in a glorious blaze.
Now this. Litten's tail looks like a bomb fuse. In the Lucha art, you can see that the tail "exploded". This ties up with the first line, Litten doesn't show it's emotion on the first form, but they suddenly explode when it evolves. The fur on it's chest also burned out in the evo.

It makes sense if you don't have autism

>>28774841
you don't need to pick one, they've done this with wormadam and now lycanroc. they count as the same pokemon in different forms, but you can't switch between forms after it evolves

because of this they're different enough to be considered split evolutions, even if they technically count as different forms of the same evolution

i mean fuck, wormadam even has a different movepool depending on its cloak, not to mention stats and type

>>28774948
>And rockruff evolves into two different things.

No. It evolves into one thing that has a different form depending on the version.

>>28774956
>Split evolution IMPLIES the SAME pokemon has a split stage pattern
Which Rockruff doesn't. It evolves into only Lycanroc. It doesn't evolve into anything else.

>>28774983
>Two Lycanrocs
>Two different shapes
>Two different cries
>Two separate abilities
Wew anon

>>28774983
It does evolves into two different things.

In fact, if lycanroc only difference was A PIXEL it would STILL be 2 different things.

But it's way, way way more than that, so I'm afraid you're either just shitposting or a middle school dropout because there's no way to deny this simple fact.

>>28775045
Well yeah, but theyll take up the same spot in the pokedex

>>28774840
>Crocanaw adopts a caveman looking aesthetic and then just drops it immediately. Why?
This I never understood, also Wartortle's fluffy tail/ears. Water starter middle stages just don't know what the fuck to do with themselves.

So does Rotom, wormadan, deoxys, lycanroc, etc.

Literally no one is arguing that they share a pokedex number, it's about having two or maybe even more designs, move pools, etc.

>>It does evolves into two different things.

Yeah, one thing that branches in two different things.

Anyways, ignore the shitposter, would be foolish to keep talking about the same shit when he's just doing this kind of crap.

No. It's just one thing with two different forms.

that's objectively wrong, anon

it evolves into two things with the same name, having the same name doesn't make it the same thing

The starters don't have split forms. Stop this bullshit.

Mallow leak only shows 1 set of starters.
Chinese leak only mentions those exact same set of starters.
Riddler leak also only references those exact same set of starters.

THREE reliable leaks, ALL only use the exact same 3 starters even though people think there are 6 forms. And that other "real" leak on /vp/ that mentioned Rockruff having day/night forms in the first place doesn't say anything about the starters having day/night forms.

Nothing on the concept art with Mallow mentions or implies multiple forms. They are called "Owl3," "Tiger3," and "Sealion3." Not anything that would indicate that its one of two forms, like "Owl3-Moon," "Tiger3-Night," or "M-Sealion3."

Rockruff has day/night forms because it's based on a fucking werewolf which stands up and becomes spooky during the full moon. This concept doesn't relate at all to archer, wrestler, and siren creatures. All the hints so far about the starters like Litten spitting hair that becomes asian mist or Popplio learning Sing AND Disarming Voice only point in the direction of the leaks.

CoroCoro doesn't say they share a secret. It said Rockruff has a secret and the starters also have a secret. That's literally it. The only people perpetuating this nonsense are denialfags who are desperate for muh quadruped litten or muh masculine Popplio. And even if they DID have different forms, you're not going to suddenly get a vastly different looking Pokemon with a whole other concept because they're exactly that- forms. Not different Pokemon. They're NOT split evos.

>>28775291

>>28775291
Op here. I personally don't give a shit if litten is a quadruped or not, I just don't think he's going to turn into the rassler

>>28775353
>didn't the chinese leak only mention rockruff becoming a werewolf

Because it DOES become a werewolf. The entire Pokemon is based on a werewolf. It has "lycan" and "werewolf" in its name regardless of what form it is. That's the thing you fags aren't getting. You're going to get a wrestling cat regardless of what bullshit you're trying to make up to keep up your split form delusion.

>>28774979
>In the Lucha art, you can see that the tail "exploded".

Not a wolf/wolf

It does not fully volves into a werewolf.

>Honestly why are you even arguing, wouldn't it be a good thing to have split evolutions?
It doesn't matter if I think it's good or not because it's not happening. And it's split FORMS, not evolutions. There's an important distinction there. If it's the same Pokemon then it's the same concept. If it's the same concept it's going to be a wrestling cat no matter what you fags think.

>>28775442
The point is that, even if they do get split evolutions, they'll still be an archer, a mermaid and a wrestler

That's not true. Lycanroc's forms look completely different and have different themes.

>>28775563
Lycanroc is a werewolf. Period. It's called LYCANroc for a reason.

You're not going to get a quadruped non wrestling cat final evolution or some random masculine Popplio evolution. Fuck off.
