Every generation of Pokemon changes and has its fair share of new abilities. This upcoming generation of the two new games, Sun, and Moon, are three very unique in their own ways. Of course, like any '90s' kid, I will always love the starters from the original series. Despite Pikachu not overly being a starter, he was easily the most popular Pokemon and still is to this day. This new batch of Pokemon seems as though they may have the potential to be powerful and favorable allies in the game.The middle and final stage evolutions have not been released yet, but it is safe to say that there are many fan thoughts and art designs all over the web.
Every generation of starters follows a common pattern of types including fire, water and ground. The new starters have a mix of different types seen throughout the generations of Pokemon. An owl-like Pokemon that is grass and flying type, named Rowlet. Litten is a fire type kitten Pokemon. The water type Pokemon is a seal-like monster, named Popplio. So far what the company has released has sent fans into a frenzy of excitement and ideas on the new games land and other details. More information about new Pokemon and another game information is said to be released on June 2.
Rowlet is a cute little owl Pokemon that has it’s fair share of new abilities and design concepts. He seems like a harmless puffy owl, but his attacks seem to be very aggressive. He is able to throw leaves that are grown next to its wing feathers at an enemy. This leaf attack appears to be a new attack for this game series. Many fan thoughts have the little Pokemon evolving into a large fighting type creature. It would make some sense since some of the previous generation Pokemon did this same thing as well.
Litten seems to be the fan favorite so far. This may be due to the fact that it is very kitten-like or that because fire is a very popular type for starters. I personally love Litten and cannot wait to see what it evolves into and how it battles. The main fire ability explained so far appears to be flaming hairballs created by the kitten's fur that works as a fire starter for the Pokemon. It has been said that the evolution of Litten will be dark/fire or fire/fighting type. This, of course, cannot be confirmed until Nintendo releases more information or the game is played.
Popplio has the potential to be a popular choice as a starter as well. The information released on him so far have proven that he will be a strong fighter in battle. A speedy Pokemon in the water with specialized water moves involving bubbles along with other water abilities can make him a challenging Pokemon to battle. It will be very interesting to see how a seal-like Pokemon will battle on land and against land-based Pokemon. He may easily become a water based trainers go-to if he performs like the information states that he will.
It will be very exciting to see how Sun and Moon will play compared to games that have been released before. The games are said to be released around the holidays in 2016. Until then Pokemon fans all over the world will wait with pure excitement until the release. I personally cannot wait to claim my own Litten and let the sparks fly in battle.
