Grass Owl is superior to a cat or seal. Owls in general are great animals.

Litten, my one and always.

Well, I went from Litten, when third stages leaked I went Rowlet, second stage made me hesitate but still Rowlet, leaked models for third stages sold be back on Litten.

Though Rowlet's still good, I can see him becoming most popular starter of this gen.

I don't remember what those shitty roothoot fakes looked like. Can you post them?

>Roothoot and Friends were "leaked"?
They were obvious fakes but Roothoot was the least abortion-like. All terrible though.
>When the starters were officially revealed?
Rowlet, with Popplio as a possible backup based on its qt animations
>When Ballio and Friends were "leaked"?
Cannoncat was cool but I didn't believe them at all.
>When the official stage 3 were leaked, but not confirmed?
Didn't believe them until around E3, but from the start I liked Robinhoot the best.
>When the second stages were officially revealed?
I preferred Brionne at first but Dartrix quickly grew on me. Still had an overall preference for Rowlet/Robinhoot.
>When the Third stages were data mined and confirmed?
Nothing's changed, I guess. I'm still interested to see their animations in game, but the leaked models didn't change my opinion.

>when Roothoot and Friends were "leaked"
Nothing because they were fake as shit and everyone could tell
>When the starters were officially revealed
For once I was willing to pick the fire starter because it looked like it had the most potential out of all three and then they shat in everyone's face with Litten3. Such a waste.
>When Ballio and Friends were "leaked"
Again, it was not hard to tell they're fake, my choice was still Litten.
>When the official stage 3 were leaked, but not confirmed
Litten, because I thought they were fake. After Mallow I realized they might be real.
>When the second stages were officially revealed
There was a tiny bit of hope in me that the leaks might be fake so I stuck with Litten.
>When the Third stages were data mined and confirmed
Popplio. It was my second pick from the start, now it's my first. There's no way I'm gonna use human with a cat's head. What the fuck were they thinking? That is in no way a good design. Fuck everyone who likes it.

yeah, i was and still am pretty neutral towards all of them, don't really hate or love them. i've always been faithful to water starters in the past, but since i really don't like poppomaid and already planning to have a water and fire type on my team anyways, i'm probably going to go with robinhoot. pretty excited!

>>29291559
Rowlett has been my choice since day one but I may get Moon to play through with Litten. Also helps I don't want to rotate my team and there's a good amount of Pokémon I like from this generation

Didn't care about those

I've liked Rowlet the whole way through as well (and Popplio really grew on me) but I'm partial to the fire starter. I liked the fake-evo that came with the Ballio reveal and I like Litten's real evo-- nothing has been bad enough imo to put me off of picking him first.

The data mine was the last straw for me. I've been trying to stay positive about Luchalitten for months but I just can't force myself to like this thing. I'm sick to death of the Fire starter always going bipedal and I hate that it becomes a wrestler with almost zero buildup. Who the fuck okayed this?

The worst part is that I had hope that even if Litten turned out bad at least Alolan Persian would be cool. Fucking kill me.

I thought Popplio was garbage in the beginning, but all the second stage evolutions were decent in either appearance and/or description, with fanart making Brionne appear cute. Popplio's third stage looks nice while I'm unsure about Rowlet's and probably dislike Litten's.

>>29291559

Popplio day one and hasn't changed since.

>>29291559
The owl for all of them.

I just wanted a grass owl. I was fine with Roothoot, but I fell in love with Rowlet.

>>29292213

Litten (hoping they were fake.)
>When the second stages were officially revealed?
Popplio (so I could box it and not see it and its evolutions in the game)
>When the Third stages were data mined and confirmed?
Popplio for the same reasons.

This will be the first en I go without a starter.

1) those things were fake as shit but roothoot was the least gay
2) rowlet
3) i wanted to kill myself because they were all terrible, ESPECIALLY ballio, literally the worst thing i've ever seen
4) thanked god that the above weren't confirmed but still wasn't sure if these were real so didn't really lean towards any
5) brionne
6) popmaid
