Description HEY GUYS THE STARTER EVOS HAVE JUST BEEN ANNOUNCED AND I HAD TO DRAW THEM!

lol jk the real ones would have been all over the internet by now.

So here they are:

Fennekin (fennec + kindle)
Type: Fire
Ability: Blaze (it's pretty obvious)
Species: Fox Pokemon
(well, you already knew all this)

Cindox (cinder + fox)
Type: Fire
Ability: Blaze
Species: Fox Pokemon

Caniston (canid/canis + phlogiston en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phlogist…
Type: Fire
Ability: Blaze
Species: Maned Wolf Pokemon

Ugh, both such lazy names, especially Cindox. I'm open to suggestions.

The inspirations are: fennec(duh), red fox and maned wolf.
Because look at them. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fennec_f… en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_fox en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maned_wo…
They're like a real world Pokemon evolution.

I feel like this is the time to express my opinions on the starters and a few other things, too.

I've been stalking forums enough to know about all the rumors floating around.
The biggest one pokebeach.com/2013/06/pokebeac… has been right multiple times and it claims that the starters will be Grass/Dark, Fire/Psychic and Water/Fighting.
However, the rumor still has been slightly incorrect in places, and it is possible that the source has added fake information as well so legal stuff won't happen or something like that idk.
And I've noticed something: all the dual-typed starter's secondary types have ALWAYS been "physical" types, so Dark and Psychic wouldn't fit. (Also, all the eeveelutions have been "special types", now we're missing only Dragon) Now, I understand that the physical/special type system no longer exists, but these seem like solid patterns. There are less special/special types compared to special/physical types anyway.
Apparently a reverse triangle (not even a perfect triangle since Dark has no effect of Psychic) has also been a longtime fandom wish, and I think it would kind of neutralize the excitement of the triangle.
There is another rumor too that implies Chespin to be Grass/Rock, but it's stated there that some of the information is false. There is also no credibility to it.

For now my guesses/hopes are:
Chespin: Grass/Rock or Grass/Steel (maybe Grass/Ground) because of the hard shell
Fennekin: Fire/Ground because it's a desert dweller or pure Fire (people seem to forget that pure types exist too, in fact they're very common)
Froakie: Water/Flying because of the foam cloud thing or Water/Fighting because of the overall look/stance. Pure water can happen too.
I don't know which one I'm gonna pick yet. I'll make my decision when the evos are revealed.

But at the end of the day, I think we can all agree on something.

We don't want Fennekin to be Fire/Fighting.

I like yours better than the official ones

They look pretty official!

Although, I hope the official evolutions will incorporate the flame trend like every other fire starters' final evolution.

I'm pretty positive the flames will be in the ears, with the red fur and them glowing when it sneezes
I might have done it that way if I could draw flames.

I don't know, the forms are likely to be announced soon, and I draw quadrupeds the best. But I guess we'll see

I think I know where you got the Idea of fennekin's evolution because I saw a fan made fire fox starter that had the simaller evolution designs like this lol

Pokemon have basic body shapes anyway, so one doesn't have to be too creative ;D

Ohthehumanityplz [2013-07-28 08:14:02 +0000 UTC]

froakie's my favorite but your evoultions look nice. They fit with the fox theme, and the wolf final is a nice twist. How about Flambe'x(Flambe+Fox)  or Blazine(Blaze+Canine)?

canisaries In reply to Ohthehumanityplz [2013-07-28 09:29:58 +0000 UTC]

Blazine might sound too much like Blaziken, but Flambex might work. Or maybe Flambox so the word is a bit more hidden.

It's funny how Froakie has grown on me. When the starters were announced it was my least favorite, but now I'm seriously considering it. After all, both times I've chosen the water starter (well, three times: Samurott in White + Black 2, Feraligatr in HeartGold) and it is pretty cute

Ohthehumanityplz In reply to canisaries [2013-07-28 09:37:02 +0000 UTC]

True, I was trying to avoid Flambox, but you're right.

Froakie's eyes just seem so innocent to me. Almost as though he's trying to be aware of his surroundings in a way to protect himself.

I've mostly been a fire user, but Froakie might be my first water.

I know, I've been following the thread

Also, I think now would be a good time to thank you for introducing me to the place. They're surprisingly active and polite people there

Except for a few rough trolls(they usually get 'thump'd out of the thread if too rude), the site is a very contained and positive place. There's a sense of relief I get when reading that forum.

Nice. These designs look like they would fit right into the game. Great job! I especially like Caniston (sorry, no suggestion for the names).

One of Fennekin's moves is Psychic, just saying.

canisaries In reply to AdamDeLand [2013-07-27 19:22:50 +0000 UTC]

One of Chespin's moves is Aerial ace. It still doesn't really strike me as a Flying type. Froakie uses an Ice-type move.

There are seven (eight if bred) Pokemon who are not Psychic-type but still learn Psychic leveling up, even more that learn it by TM.
Also, we don't know how the Fairy type will influence this.

...But yeah, it's pretty likely that Fennekin will be half Psychic. I'm just hoping it doesn't turn out to be one since it would mean another magical fox thing and we already have 4 of them.
I generally don't care much for Psychic types either. Don't know why, though.
