Rumored Starter Evolutions!
News 9/4 Rumored-tsutaaja-evos

Above going Grass, Fire, and Water are the starters, all three stages, rumored. THIS IS NOT OFFICIAL YET! However, this is becoming more and more sounding as legit. The Grass and Water second stages were already rumored in an earlier anime picture(below) and they match up with that picture. We will see in a few days or weeks.

New Information about a blue Yanappu!
News 9/4 Blue-yanappu-1

As you can see in the picture above, there is atleast a blue version of Yanappu. It is reported to be a water monkey. There are also reports of a red one for the fire type(slight red can be seen above the text...but it is 99% hidden if there). They should be the first pokemon to really work well with the triple battles...basically the Plusle and Minun of triple battles. We will see what happens soon enough.

grass starter is amazing

My personal opinion:
The grass starter is awesome. I don't think I have ever liked a grass starter this much in the other 4 gens. The fire starter looks alright. Poorly drawn and would have been better if he stayed on 4 legs. The water starter is ok. His second stage matches his first but is a crappy look. The final stage for the water starter looks great but it doesn't really match the other stages. The shells randomly evolve when from stage 1-2 they remained the same, his legs and arms randomly turn into fins when they were arms and legs from stage 1-2, and he appears to lose his little dark colored ears things.

Grass starter is going to be the most picked if that's the actual evolution lol
Fire starter looks sort of...eh. It almost looks as if it might be another fighting/fire. i hope not lol. It also looks bulky, so maybe a change.
Water starter...The last evolution looks like a total different pokemon. Lol.

"Bulky" doesn't always mean Fighting.

im going to stick with my original idea of it being fire/ground. i could kinda see the fire/dark does anyone notice how much the fire resembles rhyperrior?

If you mean another one with the abilities Plus and Minus:
News 9/4 BWPokemon5-150x150

^his ability is either Plus or Minus^
If you mean another explorational pokemon for triple battles, Hiyappu(fire), Yanappu(grass) and Baoppu(water), are the three monkeys who are gonna do that. It's nice this time that they made them different types...maybe people will do more double/triple battles without just using Protect, EQ, and Explosion.

When i said bulky i was talking about like..having a bulky looking fire type. Infernape and Blaziken were usually used as sweepers (infernape mostly) and blaziken as a physical attacker. Looks like the fire type might be like tank? Idk, just by looking at it.

I would love a bulky fire pokemon... He does look like he should be a bit on the slow side but with good defenses.
