May I know /vp/'s opinion on the final evo of the Gen 8 starters? Personally I'm a bit disappointed that they're monotypes. Do they even have a chance for online battles?

(had to bring it up because apparently I missed it when /vp/ always roasted the starters from the previous gen)

Atrocious designs, the first gen I'd box the starter, had I bought the game.

In terms of comp Cinderace and Rillaboom are both pretty good, easily core to a couple of teams once the HA's are out. Intelleon was so close to being good but that atrocious movepool along with trash HA ruined it.

Good thing it doesn’t matter for Cinderace since it got a protean clone

Rillaboom is underwhelming but not the worst thing. Other two I despise

Aside from Inteleon, they were for most parts exactly what I expected to be after the Affleck leak. I have my theory that if Scorbunny's evo is pure fire type, then they would make other starters mono type too to avoid favouritism. It's the reason why I wasn't really disappointed by monotypes when they got revealed.
I like Rillaboom, it's a cool design. There's nothing to be surprise by Cinderace's design which is always going to be a bipedal fighter since Scorbunny's first reveal, except the fact it get Protean 2.0 ability and two great signature moves. Inteleon is really weird, I don't think I will ever be used to its design. I'm glad that it's likely the trashiest starter of this trio though.

>Do they even have a chance for online battles
When hidden abilities got release, Cinderace definitely will have a chance since it's one with protean ability. Court Change is worth to use too.
Rillaboom might see some uses due to it get Tapu Bulu's ability.
Inteleon have no hopes.

- I'm fine with Grookey's line, just not a fan of Rillaoom having the separate drum that it carries everywhere.
Also not a fan of Thwacky in general. It's just Grookey but as one long shape and a lighter green.
- Don't care for the Scorbunny line at all.
From Scorbunny's skinny legs, to Raboot and Cinderace's...everything.
-Sobble's line is weird, it doesn't seem like a natural progression on Sobble's design.
The emo teen with purple hair comes out of nowhere, and the spy thing comes out of double nowhere.
Drizzile seems the most of out of place.
If they had given it more secret agent themes and kept Sobble's general color scheme I'd like the line as a whole a lot better.

Still don't like how all the starter's final evos are humanoid.
They're pretty much humans in costumes.
Though Rillaboom is a gorilla so I can let that one slide.

Cinderace isn't a monotype. Not with that spiffy new HA, he isn't
