It looks loving awful and I nearly, nearly feel bad for water starter people, were it not for the fact that just about any water pokemon learns ice/ground/rock/fighting/poison moves which has always been a big ol' "gently caress you" to the aledged balance between the three starting types.

And that Grooky evo does absolutely nothing for me so I guess it all balances out. Also I'm getting the impression Intelleon is going to be the sole special attacker while the other two are going to be more physically based. Scorbunny is clearly going to be the speedster of the bunch but the noodle lizard looks like he'll be fairly fast too.

Water is usually one of my two favorite types by a long shot and I am usually a water starter guy, but some gens just miss that mark *cough* Gens 5 and 8 *cough*

I'm probably going to give a really unpopular take here, but the more I look at the final evos the more I love Sobble's and the more I hate Grooky's. Like I'll take a sassy gay lizard over a super saiyan gorilla any loving day.

I think I'm really gonna like the Sobble evolution in motion.

I didn't know if I liked Sobble's evo at first, then I saw some fake Sobble evos on Twitter that looked like complete poo poo because somehow people still think Pokemon starters evolve into "bigger and more animal-y" after all this time. So that makes me appreciate creativity more. He's just so dang slender.

I think preference tends to depend on whether or not one thought salazzle was a good design. In my case she's an absolute queen who murdered anything in my first playthrough so I guess that's that.

I’m pleasantly surprised by that Grookey evo. Might choose him and name him Gorillaz.

Sobble evo though, I really don’t like his giant human hands.

Oh! Apparently the pictures of the mid-stage starters posted earlier were shiny, that's why they looked so off and wrong. The normal colors look much more in line with the originals and I'm liking them a lot more now.

That's what I'm guessing, unless this madman did hella restarts.

Or the whole thing is a fake, but I doubt that at this point. With the right colors they look legit to me.

If they were fake I think they wouldn't be as divisive. Also a lot of people headcannoned Sobble evolving into some sort of badass dragon. At no point did I ever expect anything like that, I expected sleek noodle lizard the minute the spy theme was leaked.

how many restarts would one theoretically have to do so that two of the starters were shiny? it's in the tens of thousands, right?

...Oh my God, I just realized that the secret agent theme of the Sobble line fits into Poke-Britain because they're like James Bond (and a billion other British spies from popular culture).

Unless Scorrbunny's final evo really manages to impress I think that secret agent lizard really is my man (or woman).

I feel the need to point out that neither final evolution came from the same leaker, have no in -game proof of their existence, and may be fake shown now so as to make use of the proper leak to fool people more easily.

No, the middle evolutions, the elephant, and purple thing are 99% real. They’re way too elaborate to be fake. Everything else is questionable though. The person who leaked the 99% stuff went to sleep so I’ll guess we’ll find out when he wakes up and posts more.
