Fire:

People use the "semi-aquatic" feature as a pattern, but it's really more of a necessity. I mean, you can't have the first Pokemon you can obtain be unable to stand/move on land; it just wouldn't work out as well. That's why they always give them legs of some sort. They could totally make a fish starter or some other fully aquatic animal, but they'd need to give it the ability to stand and move around on land for it to "work", you know?

Except the Snivy line is the "cool" one. They said so in their interview about designing them.

I can never decide if the "extinct animals" meme or the "based on weapons" meme is cringier. Probably the weapons one because it doesn't make sense in literally any capacity, but the "some kinds of snakes and owls are extinct, also Chesnaught is ackshuslly based on this one animal that i'd never heard of before i started reading up on muh patterns" hits me right in my specific strand of autism

This. Fan art makes it appear more feminine because it's otherwise very bland and boring.

that'd be really cool

Like I said, making an aquatic animal into a starter would cause them to do some serious thinking, which is great, because overly-creative Pokemon are some of the best types of Pokemon

Actually the funniest thing about either of these is how they're borderline unfalsifiable. Oh, the next grass starter is a dog? Actually, I say it's based off of this random extinct specifies of dog! Pattern maintained! And they're already trying to say that the god damn Big Jaw Pokémon is based on brass knuckles so god knows how far they can twist that one

If Gibble was the gen four starter then I think it could worked (of they changed it's type) butu can't see many fully aquatic animals worker as starters even with limbs. Maybe am octopus though

Grass Dodo. It's extinct, you can r34 it, and it looks like a toucannon but retarded.
Fire/Steel snake, with too many spikes, and a cloak.
Water/Ice Beaver. Leg day is everyday for this. Kicks everything, and bites like a shark.

Grass/Ice type based on a winter forest spirit

Water/Electric type inspired from eels, likely a giant muscle eel

Fire/Dark type based on a hedgehog. Rather than learning any fire moves though, it would have to hold an item that converted its normal type moves into fire moves and would be the edgiest of edge lords.

How about we get a more rounded mix of starters like gen 3 or 4? Feminine starters are stupid.

I can't decide if your retard quest to label anything you don't like, such as fanmade things, fun, and unfalsifiable fan theories... is just retarded or the cringiest thing in human existence.
