Why do people say it's a soccer bunny? All it did in the trailer was running fast. Stop associating human activities to pokemon, especially something as retarded as football.

"Scorch bunny is based on soccer" is the new "Squirtle is based on squirrel". And people were saying new pokemon aren't like the old ones.

because it has a bandage on its nose
because it has a thing on its neck remniscent of a jersey collar
because the squares on the bottom of its feet are remniscent of cleats

Bandaged nose is an athletic meme in Japan. Its feat do not look like cleats at all. The collar is the only thing vaguely athletic, and it'll probably get bigger as it evolves like the Typhlosion line.

It's not obvious, but it's a decent guess.
The last two gens had starters associated with activities: knight, mage, ninja, archer, wrestler, singer.
It doesn't matter how much you dislike it, it's the trend we've been getting and saying it can't happen is dumb.

And the most obvious one, the trailer already showed something soccer related as the new gen gimmick, obviously starters are gonna be in some way involved in that, and Scorbunny just has those clear soccer related traits.

That's just its English name though. The original is Hibanny from "hibana" (sparks, literally fire flower).

There's no way Scorbunny isn't going to become a football pokemon.

All the translations are a wordplay between bunny and some fire related word. None even remotely hint at sports.

Mythologies aren't exactly "human activities".
But really, even without being limited to the starters, we've had Pokemon + human activity since gen 1. Why is it a problem now?

Thats doesnt mean anything, Pokemon name does not need to have it derived from the same word across all language. They just have to make a pun that sounds really really well with all it gimmicks in said languange, the more the better. Why they use Scorch? Why doesn’t they use Flarabbit or Burny?

Because the translator, knowing how the evolution shoud be, thought of scorch because its close to score. Eventhough the word “scor” doesnt really fit with bunny they have to make that its the best they got with the gimmick.

Thats my theory.

Then why they use Scorch? Scorch initally doesnt combine well with Bunny at all. There’s a lot of other fire related word. Before, if the name only consist of fire word and the origin animal, the chose fire word have to fit well.
Example;
Torch-chick
Ember-boar
Lit-Kitten
Incinerate-roar

“Scorch” aside being close to score, have no relation at all to “bunny”

Because it's a fire related word. Just look at your list (plus a few additions). Always fire word plus animal name.

Char-Lizard
Cinder-Quill
Quill-Lava
Torch-chick
Chimp-Char
Ember-boar
Lit-Kitten
Scorch-Bunny

>Scorch initally doesnt combine well with Bunny at all.
They could have used another fire related word that rolled off the tongue easier and didn't give people like you the wrong idea, sure, but they didn't.
