I just remember DP (my first gen ^.^) you definitely couldn't capture a starly at full health at the start but after you've better the game it's a simple 1 ball capture all the time.

I think the concept for this time is having a little, timid, Pokémon evolving into a monster and leaving its old persona behind; now fully capable to fight with all of its force instead of fleeing from battles. Magikarp and Feebas were nice, but far too vulnerable to fight.
Tieing it with the original topic, I probably won't use it and just register for Pokédex, as I'm certainly going for Popplio at this time.

I really hope popplio3 has a cry that sounds like it's singing. That'd be weird if it's supposed to be a siren but only makes an irritating digital noise. How awesome would it be if it sang Azura's song from FE fates?

Recently Pokémon cries have matched up quite nicely (Salandit's, for example), so I think Popplio3 having a singing like cry is very possible.
As for it singing Azura's song... It'd be nice, as long as it doesn't sing the words. However, I don't think it's very likely.

Ha, I know it won't happen. It'd be a pretty cool nod to FE tough!

Magician on Delphox is very fun to use...
Anyways If they ditch Torrent, Blaze, and Overgrow they better reassign new abilities to ALL the previous starters; otherwise, keep the tradition.

So... Is anyone else thinking about possible signature moves? I'm thinking:
Leaf Arrow: The user repeatedly fires razor sharp arrows made of leaves at the target. Multi-hit move (and/or maybe can't miss), probably Sp. Attack.
Beast Swing (I think this name was actually in the concept): The user traps the target in a swirling vortex of fire, spinning and swinging them around. Could be a move that's power depends on the user's Sp. Attack, but damage reflects on the target's Defense, and could also potientially confuse the target.
Blaring Bubbles (probably need a better name
): The user contains a beautiful song in a bubble and fires it at the target. Probably a Sp. Attack as well, and can potientially infatuate the target.
Leaf Arrow: The user repeatedly fires razor sharp arrows made of leaves at the target. Multi-hit move (and/or maybe can't miss), probably Sp. Attack.

Probably not, but if we do get something like that for Rowlet, it will be a physical move because Rowlet3 would be shooting sharp projectiles made of leaves, not something in the form of energy, sound, etc. In fact, Litten's move would probably be a physical move as well.

I can see the Rowlet thing, but with Litten's the target would still be trapped in a vortex of fire, so I could warrant that with Sp. Attack.

With it becoming a wrestler, something that is known for brute strength and not magical prowess, it would have to have a physical move for its signature move or the signature move will be useless being used on something with a potentially poor special attack stat.
clbgolden12
Alolan (and soon to be Galarian) trainer
Hm, good point. I guess it should be a physical Attack then.

I think pop3 would benefit from losing defenses more. They could be so distracted by the beautiful voice that they lower their defenses and fail to see a deadly follow up attack
clbgolden12

That could also be an alternative.
I can also see a Protect like ability for Popplio because of its high defensive stats, maybe like a water version of Spiky Shield.

Eh, that'd be cool too but I like the other one more. It'd be cool if for rowlet's, it was like tri attack and he shot different types of arrows and there is a chance for one of several statuses to come into effect

I think all three starters would evolve at the exact same levels at each other. I kind of prefer it that way because having one evolve earlier than the others seems unfair.
clbgolden12
Alolan (and soon to be Galarian) trainer
Starters have been evolving at the same levels recently, so I think it'll more than likely happen.
What's really unfair IMO is starters having higher/lower stats than the other ones. I mean, why? :S

True, but remember Greninja. Higher SpAtk, but its signature offensive move is physical, and even then he's no slouch on that side of the spectrum. Generally, fire starters never seem to have any kind of reliable defense, so I could see them splitting numbers between both offenses with one (probably physical) being higher than the other.
Also, I know it's expecting quite a bit, but we may be in for two signature moves on Lit3. Doubt it though, since the fire attack is most likely a generic display of how he'd fight (might simply just be using fire spin) rather than a new move.

To be fair, Greninja has a base 95 attack, which is completely usable and isn't that much smaller compared to a based 103 special attack. We do not know how Lit3's special attack will be, but likely it will be low due to it being a wrestler.

The lowest special attack for a fully evolved Fire Fighter is 100. Though the other wrestler(emboar) did have that lowest Satk both normally and relative to it's atk stat.
