Raka_Putra: Ah yes, the most adorable starter Pokemon to ever start. Rowlet is just so precious with its little leaf bowtie and its very round body. OMG. I just want to cuddle one for the rest of my life.
mnkboy907: Adorable little Grass owl. Loved it from the very beginning

profDEADPOOL: Owliver Queen best starter family

ctes: Rowlet is the best gen 7 NFE there is. (Steiner note: tru) It's super loveable and while the anime has little impact this ranking because so little of it is out, Rowlet is where it gets to have influence. I love Ash's Rowlet. It's hillarious. Rowlet really is a perfect NFE in general.

Paratroopa1: it was the moment that they announced that there would be an owl starter that I knew sun and moon was going to be the best pokemon game ever, and lo and behold, it was, and nobody was surprised, except for all of the wrong people who don't think it's the best pokemon game ever

Inviso: It's an absolutely adorable owl that actually made me want to choose the Grass starter for the first time in forever. Not bad at all.

Luster Soldier: In the past, Grass starters in each generation have faced a serious uphill battle to receive majority support for their respective generation. Back in Gen I, the starter battle was between Charmander and Squirtle, with Bulbasaur being a distant third place (sorry Bulbasaur fans). There is a sizable minority that always pick the Fire starter since their first starter was Charmander, or those who always pick Water since their first starter was Squirtle. Because of this, future Grass starters were at a disadvantage because their ""guaranteed"" fanbase was much smaller than the Fire and Water starters.

For a Grass starter to get the majority support for a specific generation, it comes down to 2 main factors - a Grass starter with a great design, plus the other 2 starters being a disappointment upon reveal to win the support of people who have no specific preference for any starter type. The reveal of Rowlet was the first time this trend would be defied. Some people made their choice immediately upon reveal, which is why it's a good thing that Rowlet impressed people upon the initial reveal. The later reveals of the evolutions also helped out Rowlet's cause, since the official reveal of Incineroar didn't really impress too many people on the Fire side and the same for Brionne/Primarina on the Water side for being too feminine.

swordz9: Adorable little owl

Cybat: Oh hey, owls are cute.

StifledSilence: Reasonably cute owl.

PrinceKaro: Though useless in most other ways, Rowlet will give you 3 experience points if you brutally kick it between two upright poles.
