Pokémon Pokemon Legends Starter

[Snek]

Pokemon Legends: Arceus has been announced!

The starters have been revealed! They are: Rowlet (from Gen 7), Cyndaquil (from Gen 2) and Oshawott (from Gen 5).

Which one is your favourite and which one will you choose?

I will be choosing Rowlet because I love Decidueye.

for me it's between rowlet and oshawott, idk who i'll choose but i got plenty of time to decide lol

i might pick rowlet because i've never used them before, whereas i've picked oshawott a few times when restarting pokemon black

unfortunately i will not pick cyndaquil, as cute as it it, i'm not a fan of it's final evolution

 

[Midoriya]

Definitely going for Rowlet. Can’t resist the guy and Rowlet is the best out of the three presented imo.

 

[LuchaSloth]

Probably Cyndaquil.

But, I don't feel particularly strong about any of them.

 

[JemAC]

I'll be picking Oshawott as I really like the final evolution Samurott, I have a soft spot for any Pokemon that resemble a seal or sea lion, this is one of my favourite starters overall (just behind Bulbasaur and Piplup) so I'm really pleased to see it getting a chance in a new game.

I'll probably be picking Cyndaquil! Only because Rowlet and Oshawott are my go-to starters for gens 7 and 5 respectively, so I already have plenty of experience using them.

I've not used Cyndaquil since I was 10, it was my first ever starter when I got SoulSilver, so even if I use Totodile now, I'll always have a soft spot for Cyndaquil,,

I will be going for Rowlet

 

[sleepydreepy]

Idk I like all of them, but I think I might go with Cyndaquil

 

[ForgottenT]

Cyndaquil have always been my favorite pokemon.

 

[Neb]

I’m going with Oshawott. I love the entire evolutionary line and it’s my all time favorite starter!

 

[oak]

Cyndaquil was my favourite growing up but I would probably pick Rowlet cause grass type is my favourite. And he round lmao.

 

[Holla]

Rowlet. I always picked Popplio in Sun and Moon but Rowlet was a close second. I also really like Cyndaquil but I’d rather use something different. Then there’s Oshawott who is probably my least favourite starter in general.

 

[~Kilza~]

I'm going with Oshawott, since I always go with the water starter, lol.

 

[nordskjev]

I'll choose Cyndaquil even though I'm not a fan of fire type starters lol (but there are exceptions!)

 

[Giddy]

Cyndaquil has lived in the past for far too long! Let his flames burn!
I've missed Cyndaquil so much! this looks so amazing

Whether or not I will even bother buying the game will depend on seeing opinions on if it's any good once it's been released. So, there's no guarantee.

That said, if I do end up getting the game, I'd plan to use Rowlet. Rowlet is my favorite first-form starter and my favorite starter anything in general alongside Blastoise. I also feel like Decidueye and its archery would fit in well with the setting, which I'm sure is what influenced the starters they chose anyhow. Not particularly fond of Samurott, so yeah, between that, having already implemented Cyndaquil on a team recently, and my affection for Rowlet, it's any easy choice.

 

[SmoochsPLH]

it will probably be oshawott or cyndaquil.

despite it not being my favorite type, when it comes to starters i normally always end up liking the water type the most. has been that way since i first played pearl (though galar broke that trend becus i actually liked scorbunny more).

i know it's not gonna be rowlet. it's cute, but i don't care for it much or it's evolutions. i love oshawott a whole bunch and cyndaquil and like they're evolutions, but oshawott's just a notch higher on my favorites then cyndaquil.

 

[Louise_]

in all the games my 2 brothers always pick the same starter as me, not this time,

 

[ReeBear]

Cyndaquil because
1. Nostalgia
2. I’m still a baby that gets excited over fire pokemon

(the other two are both top cuties though and in reality I’ll probably spend a long time trying to pick one before eventually going for Cyndaquil)

 

[Fruit & more]

I always pick the fire type and cyndaquil was my first pokemon (I still have him and he's eleven this year I think) so.
