Please try and act like this isn't the best designed starter ever. Ninjask needed a comrade, Gamefreak delivered.

He isn't bad, but Galantoad was better. But in terms of what GF has been creating, he probably is the best starter in fucking ages, because most of the starters after first gen are honestly just fucking boring

After a while its starting to grow on me. Its not really that bad it was just disappointing. But The other two are still better in my opinion but they are the best starters since gen 3.

I'm just excited to have an actually viable Water starter. And Water/Dark typing is perfect for a mixed attacker.

At first I just didn't 'get' Greninja's design. The tongue scarf kind of weirded me out and I was expecting something different.

Now, however, I'm really liking its looks! It's sleek, suitably ninja-like and heart-meltingly cute when it smiles in Pokemon-ami.

I actually quite like this generation's starter chains, and I reckon I'll only grow more fond of them over time.

Anyhow, I'd really love to see the fully evolved starters in the anime. I think they'll look great in motion, especially Greninja who can ninja around.

It looks so much better without that light-blue color. I still can't believe what happened to Braixen and Quilladin though. They totally got the short end of the stick in this one.

Getting buffed this gen.

Dark is going to be trumped by fairy, but gains an edge on steel types which have lost the dark resistance.

If Metagross becomes more popular because of the potential as a fairy counter, Greninja might well be in high demand.Especially if gamefreak makes his hidden ability technician like people are fantasizing

Technician or Skill Link, which would be superior?

I think Technician since it still buffs Shuriken (and makes it's max potential damage even higher) while also buffing other moves.

Technician would be incredible with shurikens.

It could also be crossed with a move like bite for 90 power with chance of flinch, right? A great weapon with the rise of steel, especially if metagross becomes predominant (as with gen VI strengths and weaknesses metagross is now weak to dark)

Complete. Fucking. Bullshit.

(15 * 1.5 ) * 1.5 (STAB) = 33.75 base power

75% of the time it's hitting 3 times.

And it has priority.

GF would be fucking stupid to give it Technician.
