When the name GEKKOUGA was trademarked, we literally knew nothing about the Pokémon, like we do now with Mokuroh, Ashimari etc.
Who the fuck would know kouga would be a reference to Koga-ryu without seeing the Pokémon?
Also saying the i in Nyabbi is for odeki is a huge stretch unlike the example I provided where Gekkouga is literally moon moth.

They just do not look marketable in the slightest,I mean the fire one is the worst and the water thing looks like some deviant art tier crap.
Compare these to XY and its a drop in quality and charm
>>26043405
The water one is cute.
The fire one is edgy.
The grass one is smug.
Perfectly lines up with what Sugi said about their change in designs for Gen 7.

>>26043422

Edgy is only marketable with final stages (Charizard, Lucario, Zoroark, Greninja) and legendaries (Mewtwo, Darkrai, Yveltal)

Strawpolls don't mean shit.
That you people fail to notice Nyabbi's feline features (which, considering that it's named after the japanese word for cat sound, should be blatantly obvious) is extremely baffling.
>>26043422
Since when has a fire starter been "edgy"?
>>26043458

I suggest everyone in denial start getting used to these designs now so when they eventually do get officially revealed the pain won't be as potent.
I'm actually starting to warm up to Ashimari, it looks pretty adorable. Still not sure what the fuck is going on with Nyabby but hopefully it'll all come together.

Fuck all of you absolute retards, if these were the starters 10+ years ago you'd think they were good Smug leaf owl is cool and i think the water starter could have a good looking evolution if its real as for the fire type yeah it doesn't look much like a cat but i could easily see it becoming a volcano/tiger creature and believe me kids will like that fire starter
>>26043700
Tons of animals have pointy ears.
They're not real and that's final. This is actually a clever twist on leaks season: most of the time the majority is in denial of real leaks. This time, the majority believes fake leaks. That's gonna be the funniest BTFO in the history of /vp/ leaks season.
>>26043984

>>26044064
Its name is Nyabby, which is the combination of Nyan and something else forgot what exactly it was.
Nyan is the japanese sound for cat noises.
Therefore, it's easy to tell that it's a feline pokemon.

>>26043149

>>26044436
That doesn't change the fact it has the best starters.
>>26044486
Why isn't it allowed to be primarily volcano with a side of cat? That would make sense, especially since it would still follow the Zodiac.
>>26044021
Well, Ash usually gets the Grass starter first, if it's not the only one he gets. Only exception is Kalos with Froakie->Frogadier->Greninja<->Ash-Greninja.
>>26044486
>he thinks Nyabby = Nya + Tabby
HAHAHAHAH
>>26043149
If it actually is an owl I'm probably gonna end up picking the grass starter for the first time since Gen 3.
These starters look like shit. If they're real im just gonna box mine.

The only connection to the trademark names and this thing is your false hope. You cant use a name not at all matched with the drawing as "proof" that it's pointy..."ears" are cat ears.
I can't tell anyore if you people are shit posting or really this starved and desperate for information.
Gekkouga = Moon Moth
:^)
>>26047580
>Not knowing what the fuck Kouga is
I honestly don't blame you faggots for being that retarded.
Why would you even assume Froakie would evolve into a moth?
the water and fire starter look like some prototype design you'd see from Gen 1's unused batch
>>26047589
I take it you weren't here for the trademarks then.
>>26047609
Froakie and the other starters were announced literally when X and Y were, long before the trademarks. Fuck off newfag.
>>26043194
>learn character design fundamentals
What the fuck does this mean, and where would you learn them? You can't just make up disciplines that don't exist and start flinging them around to make yourself look like some pompous savant.
>>26047613
Only the base forms were shown. When the other names were found in trademark info literally nobody knew which names were for starter evolutions (though there were guesses) and Gekkouga was guessed to be a moth mon by name alone
>>26047620
I study character design at CalArts. Same place James Turner did. The guy who works at Game Freak.
>>26043250
Neither do snakes but Snivy had legs
>>26047703
There are breeds with legs
>>26043250
Dolphins and whales technically do have legs. They're vestigial and obviously don't function as proper legs, but they have 'em.
Not that I believe this piles of trash are real, but just sayin'. It's Pokemon, if they wanted to give a dolphin legs they could, and it wouldn't be completely baseless.
>>26043149
I actually want this to be true. The other starters have grown on me now but the fire one looks cool as fuck, like a better looking heatran. Could possibly even be my favourite mon if its evolutions weren't shit.
>>26043149
Why even include odeki in the translation? Aside from missing a second b you have "Nyabbi" from combining nya and nokoribi alone. So why go the extra mile to include a third word when you already have an almost good enough derivation?

Holy shit dude. Did you really make 2 threads for this stupid ass argument?
That ain't no cat. And if by some crazy coincidence, we are in fact looking at Pokémon concept art then you can be sure as shit that Nyabby ain't gonna be looking like THAT.
Wait. What if it's based off a cat THROWN into a Volcano? It'd explain the looks.

>>26047749
There's no actual snake with legs, the closest thing are the anal spurs of boas. But the ancestors of snakes did have legs, they diverged from other squamates millions of years ago. Since then, other non-Serpentes lizards have also lost their legs or had them reduced. Not that it matters, since they could give a dolphin, a whale, a fish, whatever, legs if they wanted to.
it looks like a rejected gen 1 design
Everyone is assuming that the starter will be a cat with fire/volcano attributes, but what if it is a volcano with cat attributes? And we all know that tabby cats have pointy ears and four legs, much like the starter it just looks wrong because it is a volcano as a base not a cat. just food for thought.
