Uhm... Looking at the starters moveset, Its quite wow the fact that in level 5 the 3 of em' know elemental attacks... maybe we'll be getting Lv.1 starters this time? with the first fight against your rival, it may level up to 2 or 3, matching with the routes leveling.. wich isnt THAT bad... "You defeated Lillipup... +15 exp.p... (lv.5 Snivy does an eye roll)"

I don't think they'd change a staple like that.

So, are you saying that it will be "harder" from the very beggining? you know... "Chespin use Vine Whip... Its Super Effective!... Froakie Fainted!" me- "What?... what about my first exp boost? agh -_-"

Its possible you fight the rival not right away. In hoenn you didn't.

But in BW and BW2 you did... I know its fool to think about it.. but you know... GF... They are kinda forgetful I think... like.. "Yo didnt we do this before?... -Ehmmm... Not sure... but it sounds fun, so who cares? -RAINBOW! SUSHI AND SAKE FOR EVERYONE! WE MADE A *NEW* GAME!"

True. But if we learn moves that early, it'd make sense to do it the hoenn way.

Can't believe people are only mentioning the Hoenn way when you didn't have to battle Silver right away in GSC either.

Because gsc is a myth, you silly person.

Also, I'd love to forget silver. He was almost worse than gary.

We all know the opponent is just going to spam tail whip leer or growl so why are you complaining?

i prefer both more than any rival we got after them.... i want to have "a hate" relationship with my rival :)

I find it annoying. I'm supposed to want to fight and win, not feed you to a ursaring.

What Silver was one of my favorite rivals! So much better then Bianca that's for sure.

Ugh. He was so annoying. He's like that guy who gets his butt whooped in everything, but still acts like he's a top player. I wanted to brain him.

if there's multiple rivals, I hope they each have a different variation of the rival theme that reflects upon their personality. sort of how the johto "dog" trio had the same theme but used different tempos and instruments suited more for their respective type.

I like it, but we probably should stop talking about the rival.

Whose hoping which starters will be bipedal/quadruped?
 

CrusherTheFeraligatr

Strider: Spider King
Fennekin - Quadruped
Chespin - Bipedal
Froakie - Whatever the hell swampert has got going on.

Whatever swampert wants to be, it is.

Same for me.

I hope bipedal
And for typing I would prefer part psychic or electric and I do realize that theu are unlikely.

Is it me or does typing of Grass/Dark sound like a really bad idea for Chespin. I really don't think I like the idea of Chespin having a four times weakness to bug type. Other than that I do hope that we get dual typing for all three starters will be great.
