“It’s so ridiculous that GameFreak didn’t add any new fossil Pokemon to Sun and Moon!!!”

The games take place on a volcanic archipelago, it’s virtually impossible for new fossils to be prevalent in such a place, or any fossils for that matter.

“But the Pokedex has 4th and 5th gen fossils!!”

That are explicitly stated as having been imported from Sinnoh and Unova as trade goods and decorations.  I would have loved new fossil Pokemon too, but chill.

I’ve had a Mudbray for 5 minutes, and I love her.  You hit my donkey, she don’t give a fuck.  You hit her again, she gives even less of a fuck.

I think my favorite little touch to Sun and Moon so far is the addition of background pieces in houses to better let Pokemon live among people.  Stuff like your mom having a food and water dish for her Meowth, and some NPCs having little beds next to their own for their Pokemon.

Slow start in Sun/Moon, took 15 minutes to get the starter, but the first Popplio I chose was a Brave little patoot whom I have named Nereid. She’s precious!

I want the cat. While I’m not a fan of the others, I don’t really mind them.

Minor spoilers for 7th gen starter stats, but Litten’s not a bad choice at all.  Incineroar has really respectable attack and solid defensive typing and stats.  It’s a little slow, but so are the other two.  

Decidueye has average physical and special attack, special defense that’s decent and physical defense that’s below average, with base 70 speed.  It’s set as a mixed attacker that doesn’t hit fast, and doesn’t really hit hard on either end of the spectrum.  On top of that it has more weaknesses than resistances, (though it does have 2 immunities) and relatively thin coverage.

Then there’s Primarina.  It only has 3 weaknesses, to relatively underused types while resisting 6 types and being immune to a 7th.  Stat wise the best comparison would probably be Gardevoir, but Primarina does what Gardevoir does better, albeit slower.  It hits harder and tanks hits better than Gardevoir, and has the highest Special Attack and Special Defense stats of any starter Pokemon in the history of the franchise.

Decidueye’s not bad in the scheme of things, but I expect to see a LOT more Incineroar and Primarina than Decidueye in competitive, and in just playing through the games.

I love it when everyone goes after one starter convinced that it’s going to be the best, and treats another like crap, then they evolve and the stats come out and suddenly the Pokemon that everyone said they were choosing turns out to be arguably the worst of the starters and the one who was hated turns out to be the best.

Sun and Moon are bringing stat boosts to preexisting Pokemon, as often happens during the start of a generation.  Approximately 27 preexisting Pokemon are seeing increases to their base stat total from generations 1, 2, 3, and 5.

6th gen is missing, but that’s not surprising as it just ended.  But why no boosts to 4th gen Pokemon?

Sinnoh confirmed?
