They're gonna screw up that potential snake, I just know it.

>b-but 1st stage is a rat
so then Litten doesn't count because it's a cat and the cat lost the race

I can't wait for GF to make to make a bat or whatever to finally end this stupid meme

Clearly that was the Rat, then, and Cyndaquil is actually the Rabbit.

>>32604473
Should have used Lizards aren't Dragons to watch retards do mental gymnastics to justify it, like "Dragons are reptiles and lizards are reptiles so they're the same"

>>32604495
>Clearly that was the Rat
wait what

>>32604495
If vulpens count for canis familiaris so then an antelope would count for sheep because it's the same family, bovidae

>>32604538
I can't wait for the Antelope fire starter.

>>32604443
Rabbit fire starter better have Huge Power as HA.

>>32604499
retarded is you, i want to see your fucked face when they introduce the next goat or rabbit

>Echidna>Weasel>Badger starter line
>c-clearly a rat, c-can't you see?

At least you guys aren't as pathetic as "UBs are sins" faggots.

>>32604460
they're gonna rip of ponyta for the horse. pretty much modernize it design wise.

Fire/fairy rabbi with huge power when?

>>32604443
>mfw we've never had any quadruped final fire starter evos

GF had better deliver in gen 8

>>32604443
I dont give a fuck if they do the zodiac thing or not. I think a sheep with hot flaming wool to fight with would be cool.

>>32604507
bats are rats with wings.
...well, close enough.

>>32604499
>come gen 8
>all starters are part dragon
>'clearly charmander was actually a snake'

>>32604507
In French bats are called Bald-Mice.

>>32605164
I imagine them mixing in Puca aspects to create a rabbit Pokemon that evolves into a horse.

Maybe a blacker Ponyta with Zebstrika-like cartooniness.

>>32604495
>>Implying foxes aren't in the same family as dogs
Sheep and oxen are in the same family you dumb patternfag.

>>32605645
What if gen 8 is a fire dragon snake?

>>32605163
Where's your evidence that the Cyndaquil line are echidnas, weasels and badgers? If anything, they're supposed to be stylized rats just as the Zodiac states.

>>32604481
Game Freak can make whatever Fire starters they want and some dumb shit will still try to fit them into the zodiac.

>>32605871
>posting this on /vp/ and not using Flairees as the sheep
sir I am disappoint

>>32605662
Bats are not even remotely related to rodents

>>32608860
>looks like a rat
>sounds like a rat
>flies like a rat
>rhymes with rat

>>32608926
bats belong to the mammalian order chiroptera, while rodents are of the mammalian order rodentia.

What will you guys who disagree with the zodiac theory do if they never introduce something that is durectly opposed?

Keep in mind - and this is not a copout - that the zodiac pattern had to have started after gen 2, when they were initially planning on including a bear as the fire starter. Afterwards, however, there has been a consistent and definitel inclusion into the zodiac. They retroactively fitted Charizard into the dragon slot (obviously) and incorporated the Hinezumi (Cyndaquil) into the rat slot, introduced a rooster, then a monkey, then a boar.

You might be able to argue against Fennekin, but... Foxes and dogs are very alike. I mean, yes, they're similar genetically, but they also act similarly and many people (especially young children, who they have obviously been trying to pander to) can't tell them apart.

Then they introduced a tiger.

So, in gen 8, the list of possible animals is dwindling. If we get something that comfortably rests in the Zodiac, will you still say it's bs? what about gen 9?

I personally believe they will stick with the zodiac until they're bored with it - which may or may not be before they fill out all the spaces on the Zodiac.

That's basically all I have to say about it.

I'm almost sure that if they ever do the snake it will become either a lamia or a naga, although with an animal face.

>>32606056

Where is your evidence they are rats? Cyndaquil MIGHT be a shrew. That's anything even remotely related.

>>32609055
Wouldn't mind. Well, maybe would if it's fire/fighting.

>>32609021
"We will see" approach. This pattern is the one and only that may have something to it. That said, getting a, let's say, bear or an elephant next gen will be absolutely hillarious.

All fox related names

>>32609021
Well, considering the mental gymnastics necessary to fit the zodiac theory as it is today, I'm sure they could come up with a scorpion/elephant/bat chimera and people would still find a way to call it "not directly opposed"

>>32605154
And when they introduce a Fire Frog you'll say it's a Rabbit because they both hop

>>32609266
>scorpion/elephant/bat chimera

So, a Gligar on fire with long nose?

Well in other news we only have five Generations left :D

>>32605590
Typhlosion is listed as being quadruped in the Pokedex.

>>32605593
This but for the snake. There is no possible way they can ruin a fire snake.

>>32608926
>Flies like a rat

Wat?

>>32605952
>muh foxes aren't dogs maymay
Kys. If a fucking echidna can be a "fire mouse" according to the pokedex, a fox can be a dog. At least those look alike.

>>32604443
Next fire starter will be an objectmon like a Saxophone or a catapult, or a frying pan, a bag of burning doorknobs or something and I'll laugh at this retarded theory.

>>32609205
I feel like a snake with that kind of origin is more likely to be Fire/Poison

>>32604473
according to the ancient scripts the chinese dragon was based on the chinese alligator. So Totodile would be a better fit in that pic.

Also, charmander is a salamander.

>>32604443
>rabbit
it will be a pseudo kangaroo at the end, and a fire/fighting one to make it worse

>>32611059
>next fire starter is a flaming bowl of noodles

>Vulpes equals Canis

Is that really the hill you're going to die on?

>>32609589
They ruined a fire monkey. Twice.

>>32604443
Yes it is.

>>32604443
>salamander
>A dragon

>Echidna/Badger
>A rat

>Fox
>A dog

Nope

>>32612470
actually, considering what can be put in noodles, we might scream 'ox'.

>>32609205
Yes, it is just random coincidence that a Tiger, Rooster, Monkey and Pig were all drawn as fire starter pokemon
