Aight /vp/ lets have some fun before coro coro leaks shit in a week or 2. Post what you want new starters to be based off of. I'll start:
>based off movie monsters
> grass/ electric, like a frankenstein kina pokemon
>fire/dark, make it a wolf that evolves into a werewolf
>water/ice, vampire bat that evolves into a man-bat monster
>>
How about a normal type starter..
>>
Farm animals.
High attack Fire horse, like a clydesdale
Fast grass/flying chicken with egg bomb
Bulky water/fighting goat with megahorn
>>

>High attack Fire horse, like a clydesdale
ponyta

keldeo

>>25813853
Grass type bird (only type without a bird, Grass/Fairy, Grass/Psychic or Grass/Ground)
Fire type bull (The region may be based on Spain, Fire/Dark final)
Water type elephant (Water/Rock final evo)
>>
>>25814445
Grass bird would undeniably be grass/flying and end up as another garbage bin resident.
>>
Grass type jungle cat (similiar to Infernape & Greninja in design, Grass/Dark)
Fire type snake (viper inspired, Fire/Poison)
Water type water buffalo (bulky, Water/Rock)
>>
>>25814472
Not necessarily...
>Hummingbird (Grass/Fairy)
>Peacock (Grass/Psychic)
>Ostrich (Grass/Ground)
>>
Grass: reptile with a body part resembling a plant, pure grass type
Fire: digimon influenced humanoid fighter with flames bursting, fire/fighting type
Water: Blue fish, pure water type
>>
>>25813853
Careful around all those edges, OP
>>
Water hippo
Grass Camel
Fire rabbit

sticking with that
>>
>>25814485
You're expecting gamefreak to do that? If it has wings it's flying, unless you're flygon and suffer from the three types dilemma.

>Water
Based on a Lionfish and gains a secondary poison typing at second or last evolution.
>Fire
Scorpion with defensive stats, Gains Steel as a secondary typing at final evolution.
>Grass
Based on an echidna and gains electric as secondary typing at final evolution, It will be called Elecidna.
>>
>>25814542
Flygon is Ground/Dragon/Bug/Flying, thats four types bruh
>>
>>25814385 are you that one guy who's always in the fakemon threads?
>>
Water/Steel or Water/Ground (Again, I know)
Fire/Ice (I want a two headed serpent)
Grass/Water

The final is obviously very unlikely, but I mostly just want a better sombrero frog to pay for my wall.
>>
>>25814520
lmao.
>>
>>25814591
Those all have the three type dilemma. A bird made of grass won't have that. It's a fucking bird, of course it will be flying. Also because it's a starter it won't have levitate.
>>
>>25814520
We really do need a quadrupedal fire type starter... Why did both Tepig & Fennekin have to disappoint?!
>>
>>25814549
You seriously expect kiddyass pokemon to make a pokemon based on movies kids aren't allowed to watch?
>>
>>25814642
Or they could make it based on another flightless bird like Torchic and Piplup. Make it based on a kiwi. Make it a kiwi kiwi.
>>
They start off pure, only getting their second typing at final evo of course

Grass/Fire, from an earthy squirrely thing to a little ape to a stylized early man
Water/Grass, from a fish to a mossy seahorse to a Kelpie
Fire/Water some kind of salamander again, alternate Chatman Der that gets more amphibious but doesn't cool down either
>>
>>25814642
>It's a fucking bird, of course it will be flying.
-Golduck
-Blaziken
-Empoleon
-Aromatisse
Funny enough both starters based on birds were neither flying types.

>>
>>25814660
Not op but Black/white 2 literately allows you to make the type of movies kids are not allowed to watch, including one with a joke about bestiality.

Plus
>Implying there are not kid freindly versions of werewolves,frankensteins and vampires
Not to mention there a HOLIDAY in REAL LIFE that involves kids dressing like monsters.
>>
>>25814830
Also i forgot to mention monster high, which is a horror themed line of toys for little girls.

So if monsters can be sold to little girls, i don`t say why monsters can`t be sold to kids in general.
>>
>>25813853

>>25814597
>>25814688
Not part of the Zodiac
>>
>>25813853

>Water
>not based on Creature of the Black Lagoon

Putting aside the movie monster themes, I legitimately want a water fighting pokemon that looks like Gill Man.

As for the starters, all I demand is the continued tradition of having at least one reptile, and hope that it isn't as derpy as turtwig.

Gen 6 already broke that.

Fire Rabbit

Grass/rock

Based on moss growing on rocks boulders etc golem like design

Water/poison

I don't really care what species they'd be, really. A quadraped Fire type and a speedy, physical offensive Water starter would be pretty awesome, though.

Grass/Electric would be GOAT typing

Loses the ground and flying weaknesses
Gains a resistance to steel and a super resistance to electric

and it doesn't interfere with the rock paper scissor triangle, which would only be bad if they wanted to do what thy did last gen

As someone who loves the canine pokeymen, I'd be totally down for a werewolf one. Werewolves are my favorite monsters.

Okay first of all, werewolves are a type of wolf.
>>
>>25816647
Well, there's lucario and zoroark, but they are a bit too humanoid.
I'd like to see something that doesn't fully stands on two legs, like walking slightly hunched over and looks a bit more threatening, like a mightyena.
And also more bulky, both lucario and zoroark are kinda twinky.
>>
>>25816515
They will be though. Fuck off, Morpheus.
>>
>>25815858
Rock should be strong against grass now.

>>25816500
I'd be cool with this. Maybe use some sort sort of biolumiscent plant as inspiration

>>25814350
This is nice but the goat is a little off. Not bad though
>>
African region
With a grass giraffe
Water hippo
Fire rhino or cheeta maybe?
>>
I don't care about design or second typing but I want.
A speedy ATK or SATK focus grass.
Bulky fire
Average water.

They're will be other beast from folklore as well, Dark/Ice Wendigo, Ghost/Ground Skinwalkers, some kinda Jersey Devil.

>>25815816
Maybe not a human but possibly a caveman, have it become Grass/Rock. Or have it be based on one of our primate ancestors.
>>
I think one of them will be /fairy
>>
>>25826041
This is the hardest I've ever seen a person grasp at straws.
>>
>>25826118
The point is that its straw grasping just as much as the Fire Zodiacfags do. Foxes are not dogs. Cyndaquil is not a rat. That's all there is to it.
>>
>Fire/Bug Mosquito
>Water/Ice Snail that morphs into a hard-ice battleship/slug hybrid
>Grass/Rock Koala

>>25814873
Zodiacfags are just outright trolling now.

>>
>>25814350
>Fast grass/flying chicken with egg bomb
I need this and for gamefreak to buff Egg Bomb
>>
>>25826128
the Pokédex says that Cyndaquil is the fire mouse pokemon doe..
>>
>>25813853
If we're just talking about Pokemon we love to see as starters

>Fire Calf
>becomes Fire/Steel Minotaur with steel plating that resembles Roman plate armor and a helmet to go along with it, the plume being made of fire.

>Grass boar that gains dark
>Has a cloak of leaves, and "jewlery" made of branches, fruits, and flowers
>Themed after a Gallic noble
>dark because of Gauls use of guerilla warfare

>Water Elephant ( don't know hat second typing)
>Themed after Carthaginian Sacred band
>>
>>25814591
But none of those are birds. They're all insects or dragons.
>>
>>25830720
If you want to use the species name for Cyndaquil, you have to do the same thing for the other pokemon too. Which means Charmander, Chimchar, and Fennekin all don't fit, as they are a lizard, chimp, and a fox, not a dragon, monkey, and a dog.
>>
>>25820435
>bird of paradise
Pretty sure it's based on a vine.
>>
we're getting a fire, grass, and water starter
