Notorious imageboard 4chan’s Pokémon board is alive with “leaks” (read: entertaining falsehoods) and one of the cutest and realistic images to pop up in awhile happen to be these adorable critters. They’re supposed to be new starters for the upcoming 3DS titles Pokémon Sun and Moon.
Although they aren’t real, it’s a great time to talk about what we’d love to see in the new starters and what we think of these. I don’t know how I’d feel about an avian Grass-type starter. Personally, I’d like to see a return to the reptilian style of years past (although I have warmed significantly to the mammalian Chesnaught since Pokémon X&Y’s release).
No doubt we’ll see more fakes as the games draw closer to release. At least it’ll tide us over until we get some real info, right?!

ps- Speaking of speculative information, the Nintendo NX is rumored to have its reveal coming very soon! Sounds exciting!
The fire starter is adorable… The grass is good, and so is the seal but to me neither of their designs look finalised at all, somethings off. But it’s May soon… And I’m hoping GAMEFREAK will release a video trailer or something before Coro Coro leaks then Coro Coro will cover that. But, if I know GAMEFREAK, it’s going to be Coro Coro gives sillohuettes then two weeks later in June they start revealing one a year….
The one’s shown for post are in my opinion THE BEST STARTERS EVER IN HISTORY!!!!!!! and I’ve been at it since ruby and sapphire but have have games dating to beginning! The Grass would be the first starter with one leg kind of like hoothoot (yet it hides it other leg flamingo style!), fire is possibly is the cutest ever! Finally the Water is the cutest, awesomest, most unique starter in history. The ones you made Earthen Warrior are great too I especially like the Water!
Well since we’ve had our first non-reptilian grass type last gen, I jope we continue the trend.
Last gen was a grass type mammal, maybe this time a bird (I like the fakemon posted above), or an amphibian (minus the water type). But another mammal would be great too.
Personally I like the idea of there being a bird grass type starter. A grass type bird sounds fun! I do hope than the possible Pokemon starters names are real, cause a fire/cat and a water/seal, and grass/owl all sound interesting. I hope they reveal the new Pokemon soon.
…when the fan creations look better than the original ones…
Nintendo should fire their current team, it gets worse and worse. Nintendo, get ur ass up and integrate your community!
very close :O
strange how these were somewhat accurate. this shows a grass owl, a water sea lion, and a fire cat, which is what sun and moon actually have.i wonder if this artist read some actual leak or if it was coincidence?
