I'm not a big fan of the starters of this gen, but I like the monkey.

It's pretty funny that Dragapult shoot his fellow creatures like missiles.

I have A LOT to say.
Likewise. If I ever get the game, I'm not sure which I'd pick, if any & might be tempted to box mine. Which I NEVER do.
Though, why would Intelleon get hate like Delphox? (Also, I'd bet Greninja gets more hate.)
Also, I LOVE Eternatus's design, & am interested in the apple-thing line. TBH, my first guess was Bug because it looked like it was faking being an apple.
How are the types known? Also, amazing how many of the officially revealed 'mons are partially or fully evolved already.
Orbeetle looks like it could'v ebeen Flying or Steel or Rock or Electric. Psychic is a surprise, but not an entirely horrible one. But wow, Bug/Psychic is horrible, lol.
Bug is resisted by 7 types, Psychic by itself & Steel, & Dark is immune. Bug is only SE on Grass, Psychic & Dark, so it sort of pairs offensively in a very limited way, & Psychic on Poison & Fighting. Defensively, Psychic's resistances are itself & Fighting, & Bug resists Grass, Ground & Fighting.
And weaknesses, Fire, Rock, Flying, Ghost, Dark & Bug. Neither type helps each other lol.
Orbeetle is gonna need a good ability or stats or SOMETHING.
Zacian & Zamazenta look great in their unarmed forms.
Toxel & Toxtricity seem neat, but I wonder if their typing could be used more creatively. Also, lol, 4x Ground weakness. Thankfully, only other weakness is Psychic.
I wonder what Indeedee is meant to be. A goat cat thing? Grimmsnarl feels out of place with Impidimp & Morgrem. Visual contrast.
Snom & Frostmoth are neat if a bit plain, but poor thing with 2 4x weaknesses, Fire & Rock included. Oof.
Dragapult has an amazing type. I wonder if it'll go far like Giratina did.
I like Stonejourner's design.
When I first saw Nicket, I thought it was Fire type because its tail looked like a campfire with coals to me.
And Hatterene looks like, to me, like it was made to... get fanart. Even has Gardevoir's typing. I like it's colourscheme, but hard to look at it well at that resolution. Looks a bit like Tsareena, & might be similar in that regard... which was a shame, because I didn't like Tsareena.
75 Pokemon total, excluding regional forms & Gigantamaxes/Dynamaxes. 24 regional forms/evolutions. And 17 other Gigantamax/Dynamax. 116 total, if I counted correctly.
Also, Gigantamax/Dynamax Indeedee is SUPER CUTE. I hope the version of it lower on the chart can be used at least as often as the other Indeedee.
I thought Purrserker was a Dark type Galarian Meowth at first. Steel is an interesting surprise, especially if it's meant to be a viking reference.
When I saw Cursola, I expected it to be Rock/Poison, or such, due to coral reefs being poisoned/polluted & often losing their colour.
Pardon my wordyness, please.

Some of them look neat. But the starters look awful.
So glad I'm not buying this game, I got better games to buy like LM3.
Also, Bring Back National Dex

I believe someone said that the artbook should hold like 500-600 mons of something. We'd have to see.

Seconded. Spoiling myself the plot really... well, spoils the experience for me >_>Ovrhide said:

Don't worry, I am staying away from twitter and avoid Pokemon by all means when go to Youtube. I honestly was planning to avoid spoiling the Pokemon themselves as well, but came across a pic of the legendary in a non Pokemon topic so I was like "...eh, frig, might as well check out to plan my adventure team"
