So we've all seen Pokémon Sword & Shield revealed this week, but which of the 3 new starter Pocket Monsters will you choose:

​

Grookey, Scorbunny or Sobble?

Please vote in the poll and let us know who you will choose and why!

Based only on what we've seen, Grookey. Because he's a grass monkey, a funky monkey. I want to see evolutions for each of them though.

 

[Chary]

Baby Trix Rabbit.
Bootleg Mudkip.
Neglected Grass Type mkVIII.

I’m hoping their evolutions are cool, because I’m not really excited for any of the three.

 

[KyleHyde]

I'll probably go with Sobble on this one (though I do like Scorbunny's design as well). The reason for this being because I love water type Pokemon and I already went with grass and fire in Moon and Ultra Moon respectively. I sometimes tend to go with the designs I like the most instead of my favorite typings, such as my choice with Turtwig in Diamond back then.

 

[Axido]

Too soon. It's not worth asking that question right now, since what you'll see most of the game will be the final evolution, which hasn't been shown yet.

 

[Shubshub]

Based on the trailer looks like Grookey could end up being a Grass/Psychic, If you look closely after he finished batting his batten, The grass regrows immediately.
I'm definitely going after Grookey.
Unless Scorbunny ends up being literally amazing looking.

 

[Glyptofane]

I usually go with the fire starter, but monkeys are more important, so probably Grookey.

 

[DuoForce]

None, first gen I will box my starter. They all suck and look like fucking NeoPets

 

[Clydefrosch]

Likely the bunny, cause it reminds me a lot of Chespin. Sobble is a close second.

 

[zoogie]

The Monkey has a bird beak and a stick through his hair.
This doesn't really make any sense so, of course, that's why I must choose him.

 

[grey72]

The bunny, unless it ends up as a fucking fighting type

Don't cut yourself on all that edge, bro.

Seriously though, the bar can't still be that high, we've had lamp Pokemon and ice cream cone Pokemon. I prefer when they at least use the animal kingdom for inspiration.

 

[DCG]

The bunny, unless it ends up as a fucking fighting type

Seeing how it has a patch on its nose, my money is on fire fighting...

If the final is nice I'm going with the water starter for once, the previous gen had a freaking ugly final form water, so I skipped that one.

 

[XorTroll]

Grookey looks nice, and I haven't chosen the grass starter since Turtwig and 4th gen.

Wait nvm, forgot Rowlet.

 

[DavidKang]

Sobble because water types mostly have decent stats and it is cute.

 

[The Catboy]

I am going with Scorbunny!

 

[Deleted member 473940]

I have almost exclusively taken water starters since Gen 2

 

[WiiUBricker]

It doesn’t matter. They are all gonna be fighters .

The Trix rabbit, then box it, trade over a Mew from LGE, and Physic everything in the game.
