My money is still on:

Grooky = Grass/Fairy (although grass/normal is also on the table since normal is the type most associated with sound)

Scorbunny = Fire/Electric (I am 100% on this one)

Sobble = Water/ghost (mostly because of the turn invisible thing)

These are also pretty spot on! Grooky really could go either way with whole mischievous music monkey theme. And Scorbunny strikes me as a speedy glass cannon so a secondary electric typing makes sense. Sobble is the hardest to pin down though. Hell it could even be Water/ Poison at this point since it apparently used acid armor in the trailer.

Yeah, Grooky and Sobble could both go a lot of ways at this point. The second evolution might make is easier to tell where they're headed.

I am dead certain about Scorbunny being fire/electric though. The emphasis on speed and energy, it's name being spark in some of the foreign languages, the fact that it's a rodent, heck if you showed me a picture of Scorbunny and asked me to guess its typing I would say "electric" and assume it was gen 8's pika clone rather than a starter.

If that's the case Scorbunny might have the most tier potential with only three weaknesses. One of which it can handle due to the electrical typing. Hard to say if it'll be a physical or special attacker at this point though. That's not even getting into balance between the starters. It might make the lil' fella eh...overpowered unless Sobble's secondary type is ground.

I agree except I think Grooky will be pure grass or grass/fighting

Oh I'm definitely gonna be using Rowlet and whichever starter ends up having the best final evolution in Shield. I've learned how to do trades, now it's time to teach myself how to use Pokemon Bank or whatever it is so I can bring him over. Thanks again!

This post confused me for a second, like, “When has a mental health fitness screening ever been a serious deterrent to someone who really wanted a gun...but then I realized it was because I live in the United States rural South, and Sword and Shield takes place in The United Kingdom.

Exploration is ill-advised.
Pokemon has a lot of soft reboots but still technically follows the same continuity; way back in the tail-end of the Kanto seasons (possibly post Orange Islands) there was a Mr Mime episode with Ash's mom guest starring and at the end she decided to take in a friendly Mr Mime to help around the house since she was getting lonely without Ash around.

After Ash got his final badge in Kanto, they began a training arc for the Elite Four based around him being back in Pallet Town. In one of them the circus comes to town and ash dresses like a Mr. Mime for plot reasons. A real one wanders back to his house and Ash's mom thinks it's him. It starts living with her doing chores and has been a recurring character since.
