Rarity is hardly a measure of strength with pokemon, outside of legendaries. Besides, might be fun to start out with something basic.
>>
>>2401807
>>Yeah! I really want a new Pokemon! Pleaseeeee?
>>
>>2401815
Actually, I'll change this a bit. Still ask why the pokemon are so rare. Also state that we certainly wouldn't refuse a rare pokemon, if it's being offered, though a common pokemon would be just as appreciated.
>>
>>2401807
Explain that we aren't just some snot nosed kid who's just going to take a starter and run, we're willing to scratch her back if she scratches ours. Perhaps we can capture other rare Pokemon for her research so its a win-win.

Holy shit our main character looks like the type of person who would totally do that. Imagine after learning all the problems and stress of a pokemon journey he becomes a little scumbag (Kinda like Kazuma from Konosuba). It would be a really funny contrasts from the normal goody-two-shoes protagonist

Fire types are the best starter choice, but cubcoal looks dumb.

Cats are the best animals, but grass types are pleb tier.

Nibdew is our only logical choice, despite water being common as fuck. Look at those sharp, intelligent eyes.
>>
>>2403134
Gonna be honest, I'm having slight difficulty telling which ones are the water and grass type, though Cubcoal is rather easy. That said, based on aesthetics alone, I like the narcoleptic looking chap.
>>
i think nibdew is is grass type , but he looks the coolest
>>
>>2403151
>>2403156
...Really guys?

NibDEW. Water.
FeVINE. Grass.

cubcoal. Derpy looking fire starters usually end up badass.
>>
>>2403151
>>2403156
Cubcoal (The best) is the tired looking and the fire type

Fevine (The worst) is the cat and grass type (Feline + Vine)

And by process of elimination nibdew (meh) is the water type
>>
>>2403160
It's not a matter of the element, it's what they look like. Cubcoal is abundantly obvious, but I've never been very good with distinguishing features, especially when they aren't coloured.

It's not going to last though.

It's kind of metagaming, but is there any chance we can see what they look like evolved? I like to play the long game.

Cubcoal looks ready for adventure and fighting

Fevine looks cuddly and happy

Nibdew....looks like he doesn't want to be here

Meh it depends on the region in Sinnoh yeah but in Kalos there's Pansear, Litleo, and Fletchling

Dunno, could maybe go for Fevine, as well. If we're doing sequential stuff like normal pokemon games then it wouldn't really matter, but if we try to do this dynamically then Fevine has the clear mobility advantage over some awkwardly balanced biped or a semi-aquatic pokemon.
>>
>>2403238
Badass. My vote stays.
>>
>>2403242
Hey, I'm not pretending it's kind of metagaming. Besides, it technically isn't, if we just ask the nice professors. They've probably got extensive information on them and their evolutionary line, if they were going to study them.

Nah in order to get true steel

You needed coal and iron ore to make it.


I could be wrong though.

>>
>>2403262
Well just cause you use coal to make steel doesn't mean it's going to be a steel type I still think that rock is more likely especially considering these thing are supposed to be from dangerous environments it's probably from a volcano I would at least like to know their environments if nobody wants to know their type
>>
>>2403270
Fire and steel makes a Heatran, which is the volcanoe pokemon
>>
Let's just state which pokemon we each want, and get it over with. Bickering on the matter is pointless.
>>
>>2403290
Well I assume the next string of posts are just gonna be interacting with the starters to get a better feel for their personalities and maybe info on their environments or something then we'll choose

>>2403289
Heatran's name contains a reference to metals while Cubcoal refers to coal which is more rock like
>>
Personally, I think I rather like Fevine, grass type stigmas aside. It's a tad disconcerting, really, with that smile, and it kind of reminds me of Gin from Bleach, with those eyes.
>>
>>2403310
That's what it remindes me of. Also I think that think is gonna evolve into a dark type if that face is anything to go off of.

Seems like Cubcoal's gonna take it. Oh well. Would have preferred Fevine, but I expect this will be enjoyable no matter who we eventually go with. Kind of curious, what do you guys like about Cubcoal? Is it just a fire type thing, or do you like his aesthetic, or is it something else?

I, too, would have preferred Fevine. But... I usually prefer the fire starters, with a few exceptions. Cubcoal also has really sharp eyes that scream personality to me. When it bit us at first, I was basically smitten.

I don't feel like Fevine got much spotlight in the introduction, and I regret not eventually having a giant grass panther for us to curl up against while it purrs us to sleep, Cubcoal seems like it'll be a fun partner, and as long as we're not stuck with nibdew, everything will be peachy.
>>
>>2403728
Well yeah, but I feel like the "Stubbornly bull-headed" thing isn't going to translate very well into actual combat scenarios, or it's at least going to have serious drawbacks.

>>2403727
I tend to reflexively go for fire-types, to be honest, but i do like how strong he comes on. He's gonna be a hero, a Baller's mon for sure.

Also, potentially going to be a iant fire-bear monster, and that sounds kickass.

I'm guessing it's too late for me to vote for Fevine? Ah well, that's what I get for being late. I will concede that Cubcoal looks and acts more like a *protagonist* though.

Nibdew just sniffed us and was all "meh." Also for some reason I really want to see Nibdew in a business suit.

We can't know that for sure (even though I believe it's likely what's gonna happen) I'm sure if we got a scene like we did with Cubcoal but with Fevine instead much more people would've voted for it so I at least want to see the personalities of the others and give them a fighting chance

To be fair, it’s a good opportunity to see how battles work with nothing at stake. Besides, we might like the way one or another of them fights, and change our answers based on that.

Yeah I'm sure plenty of people do and would pick Cubcoal regardless of event but you have to understand after a scene like that a large majority are gonna be influenced by that. I just hope that people will try to keep an open mind and not be like "Well I voted for Cubcoal the 1st time so I'm just gonna do that again" but if you still like Cubcoal after we see them all fair enough man I like all of them which is why we should seduce Seqouia and get them all

Oh yeah, I’m much less bothered by the idea of picking Coalcub, now knowing that he’s going to turn into a flaming badger. Still prefer Fevine, but I’d take Coalcub over Nibdew now.

que?
>>
>>2405477
Read the Pokédex entry for him.
>gather around groups of Badgiburn and Badgisear in order to learn battle skills.
Unless they evolve in giant, floating badges, and assuming those to be his two evolutions, I’d assume he’ll become badger like in form when he evolves, going off the names. And cubs are the adolescent form of badgers. Surprised I didn’t see it earlier, honestly.
>>
>>2405519
Lots of animals have cubs. It's not a smoking gun by any means.
>>
>>2405527
It’s evolutions are literally called Badgisear and Badgiburn, going off of the Pokédex entry. It’s not a certainty, but it seems pretty likely.
>>
>>2405557
Oh yeah. I think you're right. I'm just saying don't feel bad about not guessing it was a badger just from cubcoal

To be honest I'm a little turned off by cubcoal becoming a badger later on. I've never been a huge fan of badgers. Even still, it's definitely a lovely personality, so I can stomach taking it if we have to.

My vote is still very strongly Fevine, though. Let's see it next!

It was pretty cool, but that was more Cubcoal than me I think.

Both are perfectly fine.

Poor little Fevine. Doesn't really seem like the battling type. Not sure if this will be fun for him.
>>
>>2405790
Well if he doesn't like battles what's the point of choosing him to come on a journey where we'll probably have to battle a lot
>>
>>2405795
Eh, I feel like we can install some confidence, with enough work. Besides, being a little cowardly can be a good thing. Will prevent him from running into obvious traps, and provided we don’t command him to do anything suicidal he’ll probably be more likely to obey us compared with the other two.
>>
>>2405820
I just think that giving him the promise of fun is a better incentive to want to battle because there's gonna be a lot of times where the little guy is gonna lose (especially if you consider his typing) and that might negatively affect his self confidence or trust in us while the promise of fun is a lot easier to keep
>>
>>2405824
Oh yeah, I know. I voted for promising him some fun. I mean more in the long term, if we decide to take him (Not likely, since everyone seems to like Coalcub, but one can dream).
>>
>>2405827
I don't know a decent amount of people voted for him last time (at least a lot more than Nibdew) so depending on how this whole thing resolves it could close the gap (Even though I still think Coalcub is gonna win in the end I hope it's closer)

So. Cute.
>>
>>2405896
Part of me hopes it does, but we'll see if our luck holds out.

More importantly though, choosing between Cubcoal and Fevine is rough! Cubcoal's eyes and personality are amazing, and fire type starters are my favorite... But Badgers are kinda dumb. Fevine may be a grass type and pretty common, but it's so cuddly! Cats are also a sophisticated companion, and the idea of having a giant cuddly lap-panther later is so hard to pass up.

>>2405888
Are we following the older tradition of our Rival showing up later with the type-weakness mon, or the newer one where we get friend/waifu as well that shows up with the type weak to us?

...In other words, if we choose Cubcoal, will we get a waifu later that got Fevine?
>>
>>2405900
I think everybody is pretty disappointed that Cubcoal becomes a badger and not a bear, but I'm still sticking with him in the end. Fevine is cute, sure, but Cubcoal has such spirit and tenacity. Besides, grass is probably common enough. Fire is rarely prevalent.
>>
>>2405914
I like badgers more than bears, personally. I just find them both kind of... Unappealing. I prefer a sleeker, more toned aesthetic, and bears/badgers bring to mind the big/bulky kind.
>>
>>2405900
>>2405914
Honestly, I like badgers. Plus if we’re being honest, I can think of at least two bear Pokemon lines, and there’s probably one or two I missed, so it’s kind of overdone. At least a badger is sort of novel. I do still prefer the Fevine though. I like him aesthetically speaking, his general temperament and demeanour appeal to me, and tactically speaking I feel like he’s probably the best choice as well. He’ll be a good bit faster then the other two, at least, and going off the descriptions he’s the smartest of the three as well.
>>
>>2405918
Linoone & Typhlosion are both based on badgers. I also don't see how he is tactically the best grass is the weakest out of the 3 and really common. And I may be wrong but I don't think they ever described him as the smart one
>>
>>2405918
All of these are very valid points. I have some concerns about No Guard getting us into trouble eventually, but my primary thoughts are torn between atmosphere. Fevine seems like it'll make for a much comfier quest; Lots of cuddling, lots of low-tension playing, catnaps, purring.... Cubcoal seems like it'll be more hotblooded/comedic. Both of those are perfectly fine to me.

I never really considered Quilava/Typhlosion to be badger based... Those were pretty cool.
>>
>>2405931
They're based on different types of badgers and they took some creative liberties of course but it's prettt easy to see. One of the reasons I'm reluctant to pick Cubcoal is I don't really want to see amother fire starter badger pokemon
>>
>>2405926
When we’re given a brief description by Aspen he describes them as
>Quick, sneaky, and clever as can be!
Also, types aside, he’s a quadruped, and a feline. Taking basic feline traits into account, he’s going to have a significant mobility and balance advantage over just about any other type of Pokémon, outside of those that can fly, especially when measured against an awkwardly proportioned biped, that we know’s probably going to eventually become badger like in build, or a somewhat beaver/otter like semi-aquatic quadruped. Huh, always thought Linoone seemed more like a ferret, but I guess it does bear resemblance to a badger as well. I guess Typhlosion does look rather like a badger as well.

Well, there is some precedent, among grass types in particular. Bulbasaur, Turtwig and Chikorita, the three grass types that started quadrupeds, remained quadrupeds.

Way I see it, if the 100 counts and Nibdew crits, it'll be a pretty spectacular moment. I mean I'm trying to hide my bias here, I'd love it if my roll was counted and all. But it's more about us having gotten the lazy beaver to get up and give a dam(n), and him delivering a ridiculously strong blow to the bird. It'd be impressive, I feel like a display of Huge Power might win our guy over. I don't know man it could be neat.
>>
>>2407367
I completely see where you're coming from, but I'd feel like it was cheap. At most I could see it maybe as a cross-counter double knock out, but even that seems a little like a stretch. I can't really agree with us having gotten him to give a damn, considering we don't have a relationship with any of them yet (sans some petting of Fevine and Coalcub), so much like with Coalcub's victory, it's almost entirely on Nibdew just getting beat around until it decided to do care - We weren't particularly inspiring to it.
>>
>>2407367
Yeah I think the whole fired up gimmick is cool (and ironic considering he's a water type) and it would be super hype to see that thing bust out a win from raw willpower despite the disadvantage and then go back to sleep like it was no big deal
>>
>>2407390
That's why we got to take him on a journey anon now he doesn't really care unless if you damage him but imagine if over the course of the story he starts to get fired up and battles more because he cares about helping his trainer and maybe other pokemom friends. I personally think that would be a nice character arc as opposed to just picking a starter and having it love and fight us unconditionally from the start but that's just me
>>
>>2407429
Or we can pick a pokemon that doesn't need to get beat up before its effective, and pick the superior fire badger, who one-shots his enemies.
>>
>>2407429
You make a valid point about how that would be an interesting story arc. I do not agree that Coalcub/Fevine's arc would be as simple as you suggest, and I'm still not at all interested in Nibdew from an elemental or aesthetic point of view, but I respect your forethought and taste in narrative.

Personally I'm not a super fan of rerunning the pikachu arc where it started off uninterested/rebellious and then forged a bond of friendship. If anything, I think Coalcub might resemble the Charmander path of development where it starts off fine, then gets more rebellious as we level up, until we get to its final evolution where we forge a lasting bond of trust over the whole ordeal. Offhand I'm not sure what Fevine may resemble other than comfiness, but that's kind of its own reward, really.
>>
>>2407450
One shots his it's enemies because of a good roll

>>2407462
Oh I don't think they would be simple at all I think Nibdew would be like charizard in reverse where is starts out not caring but eventually starts to. I think that if anything Cubcoal would be like Pikachu it seems incredibly rebellious. And I think Fevine would be a easily scared and unsure pokemon to a confident lion

I mean from the hints that have been dropped so far Maho seems a pretty heavy metal region under the surface. Both Cubcoal's and Fevine's natural habitats sound like places you do NOT want to venture into unprepared.

Also if they're pretty rare we might get some cool data about their interactions with other species (AKA each other) if we take them both.
>>
>>2407622
If we're going against metal, fire is a better choice.
>>
>>2407568
Well as I pointed out earlier in >>2405904
if you remember Fevine's pokedex entry it said
>When attached to a trainer it will never leave it's side
So what if we choose Cubcoal but Fevine follows us anyways effectively getting both if we could do that I'd change my vote to it

>>2407626

>>2407568

Also, while that is an interesting idea in theory, I doubt it's going to be able to just escape it's pokeball and the professors and follow us.

>>2407622

I keked, but I meant when facing what Maho has in store the more pokemon we have out of the gate might be better / safer for us on out trip - especially since we're new and stuff.

>>2407640
>>2407655
Fevine's gonna be out of the ball at some point, since they wanna get data on him and all. His dex entry also implies his species can be sneaky sneaks when they want to be - I can see him slipping away if he likes us enough.
>>
>>2407655
Well in the anime at least pokemon can leave their pokeballs and i don't think that the prof. would stop Fevine if it wants to come with us
>>
>>2407688
I think the anime had one pokemon do that.
>>
>>2407694
I think there was a couple more but I can't remember them so hopefully someone else in this thread remembers some but even if it can't I doubt the Prof. will always keep them in their balls like >>2407677 Fevine is very fast and sneaky so it could probably find a way to do it and that's assuming the Prof. would stop it

Both Fevine and Cubcoal have their drawbacks.

Fevine might need some prodding to get into fights they don't want, meanwhile Cubcoal might be too hot headed and just charge ahead without obeying instructions.

Better someone over eager, than not eager. A pokemon that needs to get smacked around before trying is a pokemon that takes unnecesary hits.

>>
>>2407534
>Cubcoal
>>
>>2407764
>>2407783
Eh Fevine seems to belong to a pretty protective species in general, going by the clinging to trainer comments. He's probably defend us if out safety gets directly threatened , it's just in regular trainer battles he might get stage fright like he showed us just now.

But if we get ambushed and completely lose control of Cubcoal due to his battlelust then that essentially leaves us without any pokemon to rely on. Plus in a battle Cubcoal charging on ahead and not listening to us leaves him wide open to be exploited by another trainer's clever strategy.
>>
>>2407812
I don't think Cubcoal is beserker tier. He's a hotblooded and likes fights, but not enough to lose control.
>>
>>2407812
Just fistfight him, git gud trainer.
If Ash can commit suicide by trying to lay hands on Mewtwo, we can manage something similar.
>>
What're the votes at now? 10-9 in favour of Cubcoal, if I'm counting right?
>>
>>2407818
Fair enough, he just struck me as the type who might ignore commands if they go against what he wants to do - if he wants to burn an opponent to a crisp and trainer wants him to dodge, at this stage he probs won't dodge.
>>
>>2407838
10-11 in favour of cubcoal. However, there's a lot of "Can we take both?" or desperate hope that if we choose cubcoal, Fevine will follow us of its own accord.

It'll be close. Honestly I kind of hope choosing cubcoal will result in Fevine following us, I'd hate to leave either of them behind.

Yep. Honestly I had to do a random number gen with evens=Fevine and odds=cubcoal to even get my first pick before I caved and begged asked for both.

I feel like we'd be seeeriously pushing our luck just asking for two. We're basically just asking a pair of researchers to give us their extremely valuable, difficult to acquire research subjects for free. Parting with one is impressively generous, parting with two would be exceedingly altruistic, and parting with all three would be kind of idiotic. What are they even supposed to research if we take all three of them? These guys were probably going to be the focus of their studies for months.

Asking for two is an objectively dumb idea. It would never happen and it makes us look like a selfish idiot.

Anon, I understand WHY you like him. I do! But, much like I understand why people keep trying communism, understanding does not equate to agreeing, or even an evaluation of intelligent choice. The matter of taste is also certainly right out.

We understand why the Koala only eats Eucalyptus leaves, but that doesn't make it an animal too stupid to die, whose entire evolutionary tract amounts to eating half-digested shit directly from their parent's asshole so they can grow up to eat the leaves of the same tree that will destroy their molars and force them to die of starvation.

You are this Koala, anon. Or perhaps a communist. Or a communist koala.

>>2408124
That's why I didn't suggest asking for 2 I just said that it's possible that Fevine has taken a liking to us and according to it's dex entry once they're attached to someone it'll never leave their side so it could follow us even if we don't pick it

>>2408142
Why not It would make sense considering it's dex entry

>>2408130
When did I say I didn't want Cubcoal I've said multiple times that I like all 3 and I even voted for Cubcoal

All the way baby. Fervine is a cool mon, but 7 weaknesses (Grass/Dark) are just too much for me. Also, Moxie is a great ability.

let's just say a fair amount of work went into making this Dex eheh, but I'm very happy you're enjoying the quest so far! And yes, other Pokemon from pre-existing generations will pop up since they've been brought in by other trainers.
>>
>>2408804
Do any of the other gen pokemon appear in the wild?
>>
>>2408804
You are a great QM just so you know
>>
>>2408809
Not sure on that one yet. It's supposed to be a fairly untouched region aside from a handful of cities and towns so a large majority of the Pokemon you'll find are new (also because it's just fun to find new things!)
>>
>>2408838
What are some other quests you've run?
>>
>>2408846
This is my first /qst/ quest but I ran a handful of things on tgchan many years ago when I didn't know how to run proper quests. I've changed since then I swear!
>>
>>2408838
question, when Sinnoh was made by literally the God of Pokemon, and with various generations (including Sinnoh itself) have what is essentially a God of Space and a God of Time, how are you going to differentiate this quest from not relying on previous generations?

will you be taking a page from Gobble's book, and just using the mons as they already are, or will you expand on that somehow? thanks!
>>
>>2408861
To be honest I'm personally not the type to write big stories that change worlds or feature a villain that wants to destroy an entire region and none of my legendaries that I have planned really interfere or impact the flow of space, time, sea, land, etc. I mostly just want to write a fun adventure that's fairly lighthearted (though I do have an antagonist planned out) and focuses on adventure and seeing new things! Sorry if that's kind of boring aha

Might not be a bad idea to start a new thread before picking things up again on Monday. The quest's gone on fairly long and what pokemon we pick is a decent cliffhanger to leave it on.

Today's News:
Cute Cuddly Cat mauls Legendary
>>
>>2409629
Ok here are some off the top of my head I'll try and think of more during the day

1. Can the pokedex check bst (If you even made stats for each mon) and if it can will it work against a pokemon in battle mode because it isn't something that can vary like moves or abilities

2. Did you base Maho off of any place in particular and is there a reason for the name Maho

3. This is more of just a question for fun but did you make shinies for the starters at least. I doubt you drew them but do you have a color scheme in mind
>>
>>2409635
1. I didn't really plan numerical stats for the Pokemon, it'll probably just depend on if they're evolved, what type they are, how skilled the trainer is. You guys will kinda have to feel it out which is finnicky but I've always preferred organic battling to number crunching! Similar to the anime, except you probably won't be able to defeat a fully evolved Pokemon at this point (cough cough Ash) with only a low level starter.

The Maho region is based around North American animals/biomes. Maho sounded cool in my head so I stuck with it!

Also no, I havent planned out shinies yet but I should do that yeah!
>>
>>2409640
Out of curiosity, how would an ability like no guard, which guarantees that the pokemon who has it and any pokemon will target it will hit with all of their attacks automatically, work organically? Will we only roll to effect the damage of attacks? Will we be able to evade attacks? And how would something like Moxie work? Would you gain a + bonus to our rolls after defeating a pokemon with them for the duration of the battle?
>>
>>2409644
*Affect
*Would the pokemon gain a + to it's rolls after defeating another pokemon
>>
>>2409644
No Guard ability does just as you say Anon! You'll always land attacks and the rolls will only affect damage or status effects, but the opponent will also always land attacks (with exception to some outside factor like the Pokemon is blind or paralyzed or something).

And yes! With Moxie and Huge Power there's a set amount that's added onto whatever roll is taken!

>>2409640
I've always also preferred the anime and how it promoted strategy instead of "select and win" as well. But do you have a layout of which pokemon specialize in which stats like how Nibdew is a physical attacker. For example in the rom hack pokemon gaia they had a alphabetical grade for how good a pokemon is in it's stats
>>
>>2409654
Oh yes! Each Pokemon does have a stat that they specifically specialize in (later on you can scan your Pokemon's nature to see how that affects their stats) and you'll be able to talk to certain people that might be able to clue you in on which stat to focus in on! Playing to your Pokemon's inherit strengths will help you out a lot in battle and I will take that into account when rolling!
>>
>>2409564
Sure love the single votes for cubcoal from otherwise unused ids
>>
>>2409735
Yes. Because there are no 1 comment fevine voters.
None at all. Only the people who disagree with me are cheating.
>>
>>2409661
>later on you can scan your Pokemon's nature
why later on? will baller-kid upgrade his pokedex at some point?
>>
>>2409769
Later on because I forgot to include them during the first battles hehe....

so once you get free time with your Pokemon you can scan them!
>>
Ok while I think of more questions for Glacier I have a question or YOU anons.

What are your top 5 pokemon so far?

I know we've only seen 5 (unless you count that one mon from the brochure that wasn't Chiwip) but I'm curious about which one's the anons like the most

For me it's

1. Chiwip - Love it's design and it has a pretty cool dex entry. Would train/10 hope we catch one

2. Nibdew - When I first saw the colored design I knew I wanted to train this thing. Too bad he got cucked and only 1 person voted for him lol.

3. Cubcoal - Hated it when I first saw it because it looked kinda unfinished but it grew on me after the colored pic. I really liked how it went crazy after beating Chiwip.

4. Fevine - I like this guy. At first I thought he was meh then I saw saw his cool ass color scheme and thought he was cool amd then I after we encouraged him and he won I thought he was cute as shit. But the other 2 are just a little over him imo.

5. Parafly - Cute but I like others more. He's like the "literally who" out of all the mons we've seen so far. Would like to catch one but is probably too weak to use and there are almost definitely cooler mons.
>>
>>2410908
1. Fevine - Cuddly grass panthers that are loyal to a fault? Yes.
2. Cubcoal - Adorable AND hardcore? Perfect.

and then no one else matters.

And then below the dirt and "Literally Who"s, Nibdew exists as a way to look at future pokemon and go "At least it's not Nibdew".
>>
>>2410908
Chwip's concept is cool, effectively the random power outage pokemon.

Pokemon I like the most would probably be Fevine. They all fit well thematically, but I don't really resonate with the rest.
>>
>>2410908
Cubcoal, Chiwip, Fevine, Nibdew, Parafly
>>
>>2410908
1. Fevine is adorable. I want to hug it and squeeze it and water it so it grows up into a big strong murdermachine made of cuddles. Looks like the concept's based on a leopard, panther, that sort of thing? I like leopards. They don't waste food, they just save it for later.
2. Chiwip has a great design, and it nailed the feel early pokedex entries had. In world, these things must be a nightmare. In game? Whack, done. It feels legit. That, and I'm a sucker for thunderbirds and pokemon has been blueballing me since Zapdos in Gen 1. It's been two fucking decades, and nothing.
3. Nibdew; I love the idea of this derpy little thing. First impression reminds me of the Slakoth line, which would probably make it a great lumbering monster once it's trained up - but getting it there would be a right pain in the arse.
4. Cubcoal is honestly pretty good. I should like it more than I do. Strong design. Take a badger, make it even more vicious, and give it access to fire? What's not to love? And fear. Preferably from far, far away. That said... I don't like it. There's nothing particularly wrong with it, but the whole concept hits much the same buttons as Litten in Gen 7, to the same result: meh.
5. Parafly, I just thought was pretty meh all around. I liked the design at first, but after a while I realised that was purely because it reminded me of Natu. It's a bog standard annoying bug. There to be swatted mercilessly by literally anything you have early game.
>>
>>2410908
Mine probably goes something like
1. Fevine: It’s so cuuute, and also a good set of types, and a personality I like in a Pokemon we’re going to be training in the long term.
2. Chiwip: As others have said, I rather like the lightning bird concept, and on top of it looking adorable and the idea of the birds gathering on telephone lines and causing power outages, I quite like it.
3. Cubcoal: While I don’t like it as much as Fevine, I wouldn’t be opposed to having it as our starter, since I find the idea of a fire badger rather amusing. My only minor gripe is that it’s personality seems rather abrasive, so I’d be slightly concerned about it ignoring orders it dislikes.
4. Parafly: While I don’t personally like it’s appearance or the personality we haven’t really seen, I also know that it’s suppose to fill one of the early game Pokemon roles, and in that regard I think it will do it’s job quite well.
5. Nibdew: I don’t really have any particular dislike for Nibdew. It’s design is alright, and it’s move set seems okay, I just can’t really bring myself to become interested in it much. It’s as simple as that.
>>
>>2410908
>Chiwip
yeah he's a cool mon

>Cubcoal
Even though I voted fevine, i do like cubcoal more in a vacuum. simple, powerful, and will probably evolve to have poisonous components for complexity

>Fevine
Has potential to be cool, but I need to know more about how it's supposed to be skillful

>Nibdew
I thought it was a pretty lazy """underdog""" type with the "unmotivated but amazing when motivated".

>Parafly
i don't like mosquitoes.
>>
I'm loving these Pokemon Yelp-esque reviews, keep doing them! Helps me out from a design standpoint.
>>
>Chiwip
My personal fav, love the design, love the personality.

>Cubcoal
Next best, the personality is amazing and the badger thing is kinda unexplored

>Nibdew
Found the sleepy/'zerker thing funny. Not bad at all.

>Fevine
Kinda whatever to me desu

>Parafly
Fuck the beginner bug. That is all.
>>
>>2410908
>>2410913
>>2410938
>>2411058
>>2411296
>>2411363
>>2411569
1. Chiwip (1st place)
5 + 3(2) + 4 + 4 + 4 + 5 + 5 = 30 (29)

2. Nibdew (4th place)
4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 1 + 2 + 3 = 16

3. Cubcoal (2nd/3rd place)
3 + 4 + 5 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 4 = 25

4. Fevine (2nd/3rd place)
2 + 5 + 3 + 5 + 5 + 3 + 2 = 25

5. Parafly (5th place)
1 + 2(3) + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 9 (10)

These are the results I've calculated by the time I got home from classes (I think I got it right but correct me if I'm wrong). I took the liberty of assuming >>2410913 would put Chiwip higher in his list than Parafly but just in case I'm wrong I put parentheses next to the number which if that that wasn't the case. And as a side note I didn't count >>2410922 because he only gave his opinion on 2 of them and I won't count it unless you vote for at least 3 so I have some basis to assume what the others are because it wouldn't be fare if we just added the vote to 2 of them and not the other 3

I'm really happy that Chiwip got so high on the list and it seems a lot of people agree with the opinion that the design is cool in itself but the creative dex entry makes it the even better. So anons are we on an agreement to catch one? Because when we 1st saw it and I suggested it nobody responded and I thought I was the only one who liked him.

I find it funny that Cubcoal and Fevine are tied considering the current circumstances and that poor Nibdew got so much lower than them

I knew Nibdew was gonna be 4th place but I didn't expect only 16 points. HE TRIES HIS BEST ANONS (...sometimes)

And lastly poor Parafly ended up exacly where everyone thought he was I don't think anybody hates him it's just that he didn't leave much of an impression but that may improve if we ever get to see it's full evolutionary line

>>2411558
Yeah I thought it was a nice idea but never expected this many responses when I suggested it. I posted this before I went to bad and thought "I'm gonna wake up and nobody is gonna respond to this" but this is a nice surprise. I'll make sure to do this at the end of each thread from now on probably in the form of a top 10 instead of a top 5 (which I would've done if we knew that many). Just make sure you don't introduce to many new pokemon at once each thread or it could get a little hectic and it's more instesting to see how list change slowly change over time instead of rapidly being incredibly different imo.
>>
>>2411569
I mean sure, they probably are pretty common and who doesn't want a mini-zapdos?

It's the "first bird" pokemon. I generally keep mine until the end. Need a fly slave.

Whoops, I was fine with the vote - Cubcoal was my second choice anyway.

The unfairness of the system I was talking about is the pokemon tradition of choosing only ONE starter - I like both Fevine and Cubcoal too much....
>>
>>2420179
That's perfectly fair too, though. It's unrealistic and greedy to expect anything else. Professors can't just go passing out rare Pokemon like cheap cigars to the first kid that strolls in, other kids need starters too.

There's definitely a conspiracy.
I'm a fan of fire types and hopefully Cubcoal gets an arc similar to Ash's Charmander > Charizard but with it actually listening to us when it matters.

All these people hating on Nibdew when it clearly evolves into a buff badass that gives no fucks.
>>
>>2421113
DO YOU FEEL LIKE A HERO YET ANON?

But seriously, I'm reluctantly fine with Cubcoal but my choice really would've been Fevine tho :/

It's just my opinion but I feel the "Fire types are best starters" are very cliche.

Nibdew would've been fine too. Because /everybody/ lieks Mudkipz

Apologies if I'm irrationally salty, I just don't get where the Cubcoal love came from immediately, because in-lore fire types are a bitch to raise
