    I'm still waiting for them to come up with Pokemon Sparta. Now that would be madness.

    In case your wondering. Yes, I did hate myself a little more for this

    I don't really like the starters that much, but I think the fire starter would be my first choice with water being a close second. Since the games are called Sword and Shield, I expect many new Pokémon of my favorite type, Steel.

    So we've got a fire type combination of Bunnelby and Chespin, an alternate version of Pansage and a water type Kecleon?

    I'm probably the only guy in my generation at least in my country that's an avid sports fan who reads novels that is incredibly passionate on Pokemon.

    Here I waited... Expecting a big leap like they did with Zelda, I'm disappointed.

    How is this not a big leap? The graphics are waaaay better the place looks great? Do you mean like open world? Pokemon has always been a linear open world. Zelda was previous ONLY linear.

    I think the water fairy is VERY questionable. More likely its Water/Psychic or Water/Poison. Also most people are thinking its fire/electric

    Nah. That's Vaporeons ability probably since it's probably a salamander/newt. The concept of the chimp pokemon kinda off putting since monkeys no longer exist in britain and the fire type looks great as always although I was hoping for an ox since all the fire starters are from the zodiac but rabbit's fine too.

    Vaporeon isn't the only pokemon with Acid Armor, and I meant it more in terms of looks and concept.
