"Honey, where did I put my Shiny Rayquaza ball?"
"Roy took it to school!"
"OH SH-!"
"Roy took it to school!"

Did you intentionally phrase this to make me read it JUST like Frozone looking for his supersuit in The Incredibles?"Honey, where did I put my Shiny Rayquaza ball?"
"Roy took it to school!"

So it's looking like Gurumin might actually be a part of the main cast, since they've never had a starter not be owned by a main character before. Although this is the first time that a female MC obtains the Grass starter.A friend of mine pointed out that the main cast have majority western names as opposed to Japanese, which to me feels like it’s because of the whole world traveling adventuring aspect of this series.
Also apparently the official website says Riko is a big fan of Gurumin/Nidothing, who we now know is the owner of Quaxly. I’m curious what their role in the series will be? Maybe the series’ version of Oak’s segments?
someone mentioned Spe and yeah could be a case like with Marvin having Sobble in Spe SwShSo it's looking like Gurumin might actually be a part of the main cast, since they've never had a starter not be owned by a main character before.

That's because the grass starter is not the ugly one anymore, but the cute/feminine one.So it's looking like Gurumin might actually be a part of the main cast, since they've never had a starter not be owned by a main character before.

Actually if any of the gen 9 starters are going to be staying in their first stage it’s going to be Fuecoco and not Quaxly.I’m still skeptical about it since we’ve been burned before with Koharu but unlike her, Gurumin has a current gen starter. It can be the cutesy plushy bait to fit w Gurumin herself (who seems to be the Iono/Vtuber stand-in as they’re popular now like idols were before, maybe if they want to add something like Showcases or….Contest Lives…they have someone for it) while Sprig & Fuecoco fully evolve. I’ve honestly come to like Quaquaval quite a bit since she’s my SV starter but it’s the least popular out of the three. It’s not like viciously hated but if anyone was to remain in their first stage it would be Quaxly.
Honestly, I think they mantain western names so these wouldn't suffer changes when they get a dub.A friend of mine pointed out that the main cast have majority western names as opposed to Japanese, which to me feels like it’s because of the whole world traveling adventuring aspect of this series.
Exactly. Netflix being a huge thing especially for the dub. Appealing to more international viewers could benefit the show in the long run. Plus, the upcoming Pokémon Concierge.Honestly, I think they mantain western names so these wouldn't suffer changes when they get a dub.
In recent years, the sale of anime licenses to foreign markets has become pretty profitable (thanks to the streaming services).
Apparently true, but you have to take into account that Roy is the second MC, and it has never happened that the protagonist's pokémon did not evolve at least once.As Fuecoco just like the other gags starters is more popular then it’s final evolution
Dawn’s Piplup says hi.Apparently true, but you have to take into account that Roy is the second MC, and it has never happened that the protagonist's pokémon did not evolve at least once.
Riko/Liko and Roy: Gurumin what’s behind your suit.I hope we can learn who is inside that Nido- suit. It would be weird if we never saw their real face.
I think that it's possible that for the very first time none of the starters on the main cast even evolve at all.I’m still skeptical about it since we’ve been burned before with Koharu but unlike her, Gurumin has a current gen starter.

They could just as easily have a rival showcase Meowscarada.I just don’t think that’s very likely. Meowscarada seems decently popular and also has a body suited for fighting like all the other extremely humanoid starters that came before it. Liko’s Sprigatito would probably need to evolve to have much of a moveset since it’s quadrupedal.
