POPPLIO BROS REPORT

honk honk
reporting for my clown seal bro and its goofy ass face
Looks like shit.
Still choosing it because I'm not breaking my Water starter on every first playthrough habit anytime soon. The final evolution better be good.
YO YO POPPLIO
YO YO POPPLIO
IT'S A FUCKING ABOMINATION.
I hope the evolutions fix it.
He's so cute.
youre alone on this one, it looks like shit
YUP
HONK HONK
REPORTING
I've went grass every gen but this fucker is flawless
REPORTING
He's gonna have the best evolutions, I can feel it in my bones!
>>26231676
Really? I feel like it's going to be clowny shit.
>>26231383
reporting in best starter !
Reporting for duty
we'll have breeders on this shit quickly
I'll be starting with this one and Litten
My niggas
He's so cute, what will he evolve into Water/Psychic or Water/Ice?
I like it. So far it's the one I would pick of the three, we'll see how the evos change that.
what are chances of seal becoming a bara seal
>>26231820
This is what sold me on him.
>>26231383
I don't give a shit about his nose, nigga has the confidence of a fucking champion. Look at that shit-eating grin on its face, he's ready for anything.
>>26231383
Can't believe /vp/ doesn't like it. This board has some of the worst taste I've ever seen.
>>26231820
Haters be damned this bastard is cute as fuck.
>>26231964
ikr
>another fucking seal
Pass.
He better get the move Acrobatics
It wouldn't be so bad if the white part of the eye wasn't actually its sclera, and it's actually wearing a dark blue mask body suit thing over its whole body.
>>26231383
I CAN'T DECIDE BETWEEN POPPLIO AND ROOTHOOT
AAAAAAAAAAAA
I ALWAYS CHOOSE THE WATER STARTER BUT THE OWL IS SO FUCKING CUTE
>>26231820
I always go fire but this guy has personality. I like him, will use on second playthrough
>>26232037
Oshawott's an otter though
yes Samurott is an otter, look up Giant Otter
Like his attitude. Dislike the white shit on it's nose.
Probably will go with the shit typing owl just because I don't find clowns badass. But we'll see when evos come out.
What up bitches?

THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE
>>26232175
o shit waddup!!
>>26232175
>>26232183
WHY IS HE SO UGLY
>>26231820
so cute and funny, definitely choosing this guy.
>>26231383
Wait, wasn't this thing actually leaked before? Only with a ball either between its tail or on its snoot, I recall.
>>26231383
I'll reserve my choice until I see the evos but I definitely love this cute little guy. I've got a soft spot for seals n' sea lions.
Not the biggest fan of the circus theme but maybe it won't look too horrendous.
>>26232279
Nah, it looked nothing like it
>>26231383
LET'S GO
What's his web description though?

I love it. It's exactly what I wanted after some of those fake starters planted the idea of a circus seal/otter/sea lion/whatever.
>>26231820

I came here to fuck bitches
Mammalian water starter = guaranteed ugly trash
Why is this?

congrats on designing the one seal fake I didnt hate
The ears bother me, but it's pretty okay
>>26232797

As much as I despise circuses, I want this little guy. It's too cute

I rarely ever pick water starters too, Popplio is GOOD
I'm holding out for a Water/Psychic
>>26231383
>circus clown seal
Does the trainer get a whip with that starter?
>>26231521
Kill yourself.
>>26232458
And it's way better than the original. Would train.

I've been choosing water, grass, fire, water, grass, fire ... and i was worried, "what if water this time will be crappy?"
But then Popplio came, and I'll be proud to make him my bro. Or her my waifu, depending on final form

Rowletfag here
let it be known that there will be no hate on this day, for all of the Gen VII starters are most excellent
Keep calling him ugly we'll see who has the last laugh when his evolved form is the best.
>>26233255
Can't be the worst if Fennekin and Snivy exist.

>>26232799
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQYqfrUDD8o
I like the design, but for some reason the name Popplio doesn't resonate with it.
Anybody else surprised it's not some typical two-legged standing creature this time around?
It's something so small but really different.

>Pokemon will never be semi-realistic ever again
>>26234016

>>26231544
Same, water bro.
I'm having a hard time liking this design. The nose and the ears really put me off. Hopefully the evolutions are better.
>>26231521
It's strange, when the first games came out they didn't have nearly the capacity for sprite detail that they have now, yet the official designs were still very detailed.
Now that they have the ability to do complex spritework and even full 3D models, all the official designs are incredibly simple.
Also I hate the fact that they moved to more "human" looking eyes in nearly all of the new pokemon they make.
I wish they'd start making pokemon with eyes that made them actually look like animals again, like rapidash and vulpix have.

Oh God its this meme again
Reporting in. Owl a shit.
>>26234697
I was considering that, but then I thought it fit with his fun and playful appearance. Maybe for it's evolution.
I'm tied between Popplio and Litten. Hopefully this won't be another disappointing batch of fire types so I can use Popplio without regret.
>>26234697
>water pokemon
>Burn
>>26234697
I meant Burn didn't fit with Popplio.

I think it's the most playful of the Arc-V OP's myself.

IDK. To me, Burrn sound more fitting of a Dynamic Hero facing various challenges. Not a circus animal that wants to have fun.
>>26232799
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=At52XGlZ_3Y
It's fucking cuteee! The only one with personality so far.
What moves do you think he will get guys?
Hyrdo Pump for sure.
Acrobatics is a definite as well. Belly Drum a maybe.
And if he ends up being Fairy, maybe Play Rough?
>>26237234
Watch him become a fat clown and be bulky support as fuck
>Belly Drum
>Heart Swap
>Topsy-Turvy
I'm a fan of dark types so was on the fence because Litten is probably gonna wind up dark but Popplio's personality won me over. Probably my favorite starter after Totodile. My friends would consider me to be funny and outgoing and he's the starter that I feel would be the best match for my personality. I like to pick starters that I would pick for myself in real life.
>>26237294
I faking hope not. I'm really hoping for acrobatic and cool seal bro
>>26237302
This. Popplio looks like a mon who loves to entertain/make people laugh/make people smile. I love putting smiles on peoples faces irl, so I'm definitely picking him.
i thought i was the only one
what his other type gonna be
Likely
ice
unlikey
fairy ,Pure[Creepy clown teir/spoiler]
ghost,poison or Dark
>>26237632
Psychic for further bubble manipulation.
Is it bothering anyone else that it looks way more like Samurott than the Oshawott line does?
>>26237773
It doesn't.
Probably gonna evolve into Water/Fighting or Water/Fairy to keep up with the circus theme
>image.png
Just when you thought sealfags couldn't get any worse
I welcome him to the family I've played with for years now.
>>26233189
It was probably ment for those fags saying that newer gens suck because kawaii sugoi ~~~bullshit
>there are idiots who unironically choose the seal over the owl
LMAO
>>26237843

>>26237858

>>26231743
As long as it's Water/Fairy
A+ dual type
Hell yeah! HONK HONK BITCHES!
Feels good to be a waterfag
CIRCUS CLOWN TIME!
FINALLY GETTING THAT CIRCUS CLOWN AFTER THAT FAKE LEAK OF THE GEN V POKEDEX WITH THAT CIRCUS CLOWN DOLPHIN!
POPPLIOFAG HERE WHATS OUR PLAN
>>26233281
Litten bro here, can confirm all starters are great. Popplio looked a little goofy at first but his animations were great, he knows he's the shit.
I like Popplio so far, it'll probably depend on evolutions though.
pls no clown afro
>>26237234
Acrobatics
Agility
Ice Ball
Aqua Jet
etc
>>26237234
>Hidden Ability - Juggle
>The Pokemon can hold two items at once
>>26239148
I think something like using the hold items of all currently out teammates in Doubles/Triples would be more likely.
i still love him, no matter what
>>26238902
Flatter and Encore, of course
>>26231383
He's gonna be awesome, I'm fuckin' feelin' it, bro.
It's so adorable. My fave
I've been playing since Pokemon Crystal and I have never picked the Water starter but that is going to change.
>>26237234
I think it'll get Play Rough even if it isn't a Fairy type, considering that that's basically its fighting style.
I'm expecting access to Whirlpool, Dive, and Aqua Jet (maybe an egg move?)
>>26232799

Fug, I remember this one. Damn, you did get pretty close.
>pink orb
>acrobatic sea lion
It would've either been Water/Psychic to use its psychic powers for juggling and acrobats, or Water/Fairy because they're cheeky and floaty I guess.
>>26239789
Holy shit my nigga
Holy sht thats the worst starter ever made.
So happy to see the water starter looks good. Hope he becomes my favorite mon alongside empoleon.
>>26236216
That nigga blowing a snot bubble.
>>26231383
I love this thing. I want to hug it.
>>26232175
shit, I just realized its face is a party hat
>>26240048
Wow, that's actually pretty clever
Finally, a water starter that isn't complete shit.
Its been since Gen 3 since we had a cool water starter. Anyone who disagrees is a dicksucker.
>>26232799

>>26240237
Empoleon and Greninja are great, the only mediocre water starter is Samurott
>>26240421
>Empoleon
Only one I found decent, and thats not by too much was Greninja.
I normally prefer fire starters, I found all of gen 5 to be shit starter wise tho.
>>26237234
if hes an ice type
Rip scald
what if he gets all ball moves
electro ball
Energy ball
moon blast
Aura sphere
ice ball
>>26231544

>these fucking traitors
Get out of here fags

MAMA MIA
What should I use for a circus team in addition to using this little guy?
He is a fukkin cutie. Absolute instant favourite 11/10
>>26231383
Based design.
>>26239748
>>26240747
I've changed my mind about his design. He's really growing on me. I will just be a Poppliobro and Rowletbro until I see their evolutions and their shinies. Those two things will be the deciding factor. I love both of them.
I have no feelings for the cat. I think it's generic as hell. OWL AND SEAL FOR LYFE
>>26240886
Pyroar, Power Herb Sky Attack Acrobatics Unburden Hawlucha
>>26240886
The starters themselves are already /circus/, but along with the seal you could have
Mr. Mime/Mime Jr.
Machamp for the strongman
Donphan for an elephant
Alakazam or Hypno for like magic/hypnotism
Luxray/Pyroar/Arcanine for the lion
>>26240886
Mr Mime, Delphox and Indian Elephant
>>26237234
>>26237294
>>26238902
As likely as Water/Fairy is, I wouldn't want it to just be poor man's Azumarill. A more status-oriented approach - preferrably with Prankster or some other support-oriented ability - would set it apart.
Just please have at least decent mid and final evolutions. All three starters have great first stages, but that just makes me worried GF is going to screw up their evos.
something I drew for all of you guys :)
>>26233159
YAMEROOOOOOOOOOOOO
WHAT IS HIS EVOLUTION GOING TO LOOK LIKE?
>Happy Water/fairy Clown
>Edgy Water/Poison Jester
I guess I only like 1 type of character.
What does his name come from?
>Proud little acrobat/clown seal
10/10
>>26241490
Pop + (sea) lio(n)
Guys! They revealed the final evolution of it already! It's this weird sealion thing with a shell on its head?
>>26241544
This wasn't funny the first ten times you posted it.

Fanart of Popplio balancing a Spheal on its nose when?
He's so fucking stupid looking but I love him anyways
>>26231383
I hated it at first but am now warming up it. It has a very underdog-like appearance. Ugly but lovable.
>>26241885
with seel Applauding him
They gonna hate on him, always, just like they still hate on my boy Oshawott, but I will NEVER STOP LOVING HIM.
What are you guys gonna nickname your Popplio? I haven't thought of anything good yet.
>>26241953
>>26241885
SOMEONE GET ON THIS
>>26241973
Popplio is cute, Oshawott was a fucking mistake wrapped in ugliness

THIS
Popplio spinning a Spheal on his nose with Sealeo and Seel applauding him when?
>>26231383
This might be the worst one yet.
I can't even stand to look at it.
WHY DID THEY GIVE IT THE EARS AND THE CLOWN NOSE?
W H Y ?
CIRCUS SEEL IS CUTE! CUUUUUTE!!!
It's worse than that otter
>>26232175
What were they thinking?
Stop forcing personality on them you fucking hacks. They're fucking animals.
>>26242230
Shut your mouth.
Reportan
>>26242316
This was my first impression with him too. But after I saw all the fanart and this >>26231820
official picture of him, I started to warm up to him. I hope you do too, friendo.
>>26242397
>these pokemon lack personality
>these pokemon have too much personality
WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT THEN?!
>>26242466
I hope so too. It's happened before.
>>26242487
What happens if you get Timid or Modest Popplio, but it's still doing a fucking jerkoff pose like that?
God damn I hate this shit. Nothing is left to imagination any more thanks to the 3D models.
>>26242238
JUST LIKE THEY STILL HATE ON MY BOY OHSAWOTT
>>26242397
They're Pokemon actually.
>>26242397
>Stop forcing personality on them you fucking hacks. They're fucking animals.
What the fuck do you want out of a game about colorful monsters with magical powers? Do you even LIKE Pokemon?
Seriously, it seems like more than half of the people on this board despise Pokemon and are just here to shitpost and argue about meaningless shit.
>>26242172
I'll decide when I get the game.
>Nothing is left to imagination any more thanks to the 3D models.
Imagine if their nature affected how you interacted with them in Amie. That would be great.
If Amie was improved in Sun/Moon I would be super happy. As it is, Amie is just rub the screen and watch hearts come out. I would love if it became more than that.
Oops. This >>26242757
was supposed to be a reply to this >>26242580
>>26242757
People would just spend the entire game jerking off to their naughty-natured Braixen.
>>26231820
The art completely sold me on him, it's such a strong concept, I wish more pokemons were liek this instead of simply "iunno make it look cool".
>>26233281
>>26238365
Friendship and harmony?
On /vp/?
Today is a truly great day, my friends. I agree, all of them are great in their own ways.
>>26231383
I'm picking popplio because if there's one thing pokemon has taught me is that a goofy ball on the nose means you turn into a badass.
What do you guys think Popplio will evolve into?
I don't really have any ideas. All I can think of is bigger versions of his starter form. Hopefully his evolutions are more inspired than that! His first form definitely has huge potential.
>>26243085
Not sure honestly, with Froakie I had an idea but this is different.
Look at this goofy motherfucker. He doesn't give a fuck.
I'm in.
What're you gonna nickname it, /vp/?
Here's a new wallpaper for you guys! These artists never fail to amaze me with how quick they pump out this high-quality artwork. I'm so jealous.
>>26242390
The only disappointing thing about Oshawott, for me, was Samurotts final design. This fucker is pure as the driven snow. You keep your shitty opinions to yourself, pal.
I love all the starters so far, I'm just hoping to see the evolutions and their final typings soon.
Reporting in
My starter picking pattern lands on Water this Gen and this guy lookin smug and goofy, likin' it
He better not end up pure water type though
damn the nips don't fuck around when it comes to fanart
>>26243402
That won't happen. It'll probably be water/ice to destroy Rowlet
NEW CLOWN TYPE CONFIRMED
Ok, my opinions will probably change once the evos come out, but right now, Popplio is fucking based and my starter.
>>26243184
I'm going to nickname my Litten, Jiji, after the family pet cat
All I wish is that it doesn't keep the damn clown nose for all its evolutions; its just a big target for me to punch as soon it become serious and finishes its evolution
>>26243439
Water/ice? But we already have the Walrein lines and the Dewgong line. I doubt they would make a third line like that.
It's really hard to see what Popplio will evolve into, but he has lots of potential. I hope they don't end up fucking up him up like Samurott.
>>26243439
If that's the case, Litten better as fuck not be Fire/Fighting to get an edge of Popplio
PORN WHEN
>>26241885
Popplio is only 1'04 and spheal is 2'07. That would be some impressive balancing
>>26243657
Already happened, Popplio has the first male and female porn on Pixiv
....why would they give him shit around his neck and a dumpy nose?
Why???
He would have been perfect if not for those two things....

>>26243859
Just water
>>26243802
Nice
>>26243859
Water/Fairy would be good, especially if it gets something like play rough
I just hope it doesn't turn out water/fighting.
I like him except for the nose and I wish he had 4 legs instead of flippers
I'm scared he's going to end up with a big beach ball like one of those circus seals
>>26243904

Odds of water fighting are really slim. Pure water, water fairy, and water ice seem like the best options
