I picked Sobble because it's the funniest name. I don't actually know what this is. Pokemon?

Grookey gang represent.

Always grass, every time. Grookey is also easily the best one this time around.

Funny. Aside from Gen 2 (Totodile for life!), I've always considered the Grass starters to easily be the best, but I'm not really feeling Grookey at all. Leaning Scorbunny on this one.

If I ever get a Switch and this game I will always pick Water, even though Grookey is the cutest. I feel like Sobble's evolutions won't disappoint.

Not impressed by any, scorbunny probably barely the least uninteresting to me and it doesn't inspire confidence in its evos, so I'm reserving judgment till i see them.

Water starter- Actually I like every other water pokemon better
Grass Starter- Ok but like I want my starter to be strong
Fire Starter- Ok but not this strong, it makes the game too easy

Every single gen. (except for gen 1 when bulbasaur is awesome)

Going off the leak which is still basically 100% true I will be locked into Sobble so I just have to pray that his evos look good.

Big Gorilla no thanks and there's no way Scorbunny's evo isn't going to be the super furry bait so no thanks there either.

scorbunny > sobble > grookey for first stage but sobble >> the other two for final evos going off of affleck leak

another fighting-adjacent fire humanoid and another grass monkey, wow how creative... (see also gen5 where tepig is cute as heck and then pignite/emboar is the embodiment of "meh")

sobble turning into a sneaky spy chameleon sounds fun though

Right now it's Scorbunny but the evolutions could sway me to Sobble.

Grookey's just in general no. Aside from Gens 1 and 3 I really have not liked any of the Grass starters.

Poor Grookey. He's better than Scorbunny and deserves more.

Having just checked the leak it will likely be water or grass this time. Leaning water because it has much better utility while grass' multiple weaknesses generally means more switching out.

But final evolution and stats are the ultimate measures of a starter. And the Snivy line is the ultimate example of this. The darling of the fanbase when it was first revealed (Smugleaf was such a good name) and then followed up with a fantastic-looking final evolution, but it was so badly let down by its own stats that it became virtually irrelevant and basically a failure, and that retrospectively seemed to effect perception of Snivy too. Meanwhile, Oshawott was mocked roundly for the penis-seashell and general clown-like appearance on its first release, then grew hugely in popularity over time thanks in no small part to the excellence of Samurott.

If it's strictly about which of the three I prefer, probably leaning Sobbie, the poor thing.

You may think that but Oshawott being terrible was, I think, the general reaction to the starter reveal

The anime probably helped with Oshawott too though.

Yosh. Dewott is one of the best, if not the best middle evo for starters.

I think Water has always had the best middle-evolution. Wartortle's got all the cool fluff going, Croconaw has that caveman thing going on, Marshtomp is real cute,...really only Prinplup and Brionne kinda bring them down.

Croconaw is easily the worst middle starter of Gen II. Meanwhile Quilava and Bayleef are actually the best of their evolution lines.
