I love both cats and owls, but I'm leaning towards the owl. I really hope the kitty turns out to be a fire/dark tiger.

Litten will become Fire/Fighting by its final form.
The others will be dual Fairy types.
All of them will have Mega Evolutions that turn them into Fairy/Fighting types.

*flails incoherently*

This gen... wow. This is gonna be great. I spent eight years growing up in Hawaii. This is gonna be great.

Player customization. YES.

THE STARTERS. HOW DO THEY EXPECT ME TO CHOOSE WITH THE STARTERS. I LOVE CATS OWLS AND SEALS!

My thoughts for the inspiration on these:

Litten: feral housecats. Big problem in the islands.
Rowlett: pueo, the Hawaiian owl
Popplio: Design looks very California sea lion (your typical circus seal), but I'm wondering if they're also gonna pull in some Hawaiian monk seal.

Moon legendary: could be drawing some from the Hawaiian hoary bat?
Sun legenary: yeah I dunno, it's another lion and will probably be fire.

IS IT NOVEMBER YET.

Mr. Shine and Mr. Bright for Best Pokemon :allears: on that note, I'm surprised we haven't had a Pokemon with a Kirbyesque gimmick yet. (Ditto doesn't count)

The legendaries look great, though fire-lion looks like Arceus and Pyroar had a baby and moonbat feels a little overdesigned. I'm going to rock the fire lion in Sun version for sure after seeing this. Also anyone mad about fire lions already existing should also remember that Pyroar is completely forgettable in looks, typing, and gameplay. Who cares if the concept is done a second time if it's done better?

Poke-Hawaii looks awesome! I hope it feels a bit more diverse than Hoenn did with its landmasses, but otherwise it looks really cool. Also loving thank you Gamefreak for keeping character customization. That is probably up there with the move to 3D for best update to the series. Really wish they'd keep it going into the Gen 4 remakes but it probably won't happen because HURR TRADITION

My thoughts on the starters: The grass/flying owl is pretty meh unless he gets a badass final evolution. The water seal is okay but not my thing. The fire cat rules, he looks like the black cats in the animated movie Gay Purr-ee:

slugma, being from gen 2, wasn't influenced by hoenn having a volcano, much like a cat starter isn't influenced by hawaii having cats
