>>29331401Huh... Becoming a really powerful pyrokinesist, psychic, and, depending on your read of it, legit mage. Also becoming irresistibly cuddly and warm AND all while still keeping my hands with opposable thumbs?
This is actually one of those cases where a "would you transform into x?" where the deal actually seems pretty decent.
But if the price is too steep, I'll pass because it's not like I need those things. They'd be amazing to have but... Yeah.
>>29324837anyway though, reposting a bit of discussion I tried to spark in the fennekin thread.
Honestly, I love all the Gen 7 starters and feel they all have a pretty damn solid design that manages to balance and blend theme, animal, and element pretty damn well.
Delphox only wins for me because of a slight preference towards firestarters.
For some additional discussion, and not just about delphox, I'm kind of saddened they won't add mega evos for the gen 7 (or many other gen) starters. Even sadder since gen 7 was when they introduced fucking mega-evos.
That said, my odd hope for Gen-7 starter mega evos would be, and bear with me, each of the three starters getting an x and y mega form.
The idea is that it explores a bit of 'cross-class' or 'multi-classing' mindset, and each one takes a bit from the other two.
So Delphox becomes a Fire/Dark type in their Y evo, taking from Greninja and 'embracing the shadow arts' and becoming a lichphox. But X form they become a psychic/fighting type and basically become a mageknight.
>Chesnaut's x and y forms are a Paladin-style magic knight and an Evil Black Knight respectively.
