hot take: scorbunny's evo should be fire/fairy for the bean sídhe/banshee pun potential

What is Sobble exactly? For the life of me I can't parse him. I can't tell if he's supposed to be a lizard or a tadpole or a fish or whatever and the names not helping because I can' figure it out either other than maybe Sob-Bubble.

its a chameleon. the two pronged claws and curled tail are very common for cartoony chameleons, plus is french name is basically Crymeleon. People are theorizing it to evolve into a stealth sniper or something

And it's shown being invisible in the fountain. Though I'm still betting it evolves into the Loch Ness Monster, being an aquatic reptile with a knack for disappearing. (though I imagine they'll have Lapras swimming around in a lake up north)

here's my bold prediction: the rabbit will turn into something cool that's not fire/fighting, but in its place the disappointing typing quota will be met by sobble's line staying mono-water

OK so here are my thoughts! I know everyone wants to hear them. I think Grookey, with his music theme and his stick, is going to turn into an orchestra conductor. His stick is OBVIOUSLY going to become a conductor's baton! Sbunny is cute and good and I can't wait for him to become a fire/fighting type. However, I would like to see him become a fire/flying type because not all flying types are birds AND he will learn Acrobatics which is an important skill to have when he goes for a dive. Sobble is clearly the best but I will wait until seeing third stage forms before passing judgement so I don't get burned (!) again like I was with Tepig.

I don't know what the birb will be, possibly a robin redbreast. Dog will obviously be a corgi. The Champion will use a team of six corgis.

The map we have seen is obviously oriented with south up the top and north down the bottom. The first big city is quite clearly Manchester. I asked my Grandad who is from Manchester and he said "Yes that is the Manchester Town Hall". The big metropolis up the top has the London Eye and stuff and is London. If you start at the bottom of the map and move up (ice zones are near the end and the ice zone is up the top so this is likely to be the case) it is VERY POSSIBLE that you start in the north or Scotland. Until it is conclusively proven otherwise I will assume the PCs are talking Scots throughout.

Most important speculation I think is on what the Regional Snacks will be. Profiteroles/beans were used for getting Affection through Pokemon Amie/Pokemon Refresh. Status restore snacks such as Lava Cookies are also a staple. In my opinion the snacks should be chip butties and black pudding. You could slightly modify the bean icon into little sausages and you are halfway done. Another alternative is a nice hearty chicken tikka masala (chicken pokka masala/pokken tikka masala??). It is served with a pint, non alcoholic of course.

Gym battles will be replaced with soccer matches.

Nah he's got a music theme going on with his other names (groove-monkey in English) so he's probably going to become a drummer or something boring instead of my vastly superior idea.

Hey! If you think a punk rock drummer monkey is a worse idea than some snooty conductor monkey then.....actually, both of those monkeys sound pretty cool.

What if stage 2 is a punk rock drummer monkey and stage 3 is a snooty conductor monkey or vice versa?

Or branching evolutions which utilise the new societal class mechanic. If you send your monkey to a posh grammar school he becomes a snooty conductor, if not he makes a cool punk band with his mates.

This will finally be the gen where third types are introduced (they were planning it with G7, Incineroar Fire/Dark/Fighting Primarina Water/Fairy/Ice Bigowl Grass/Ghost/Flying but couldn't due to budget restraints) so they will all have fighting as their third type. Sbunny will be Fire/Flying/Fighting, so he can learn Acrobatics so he can go for a dive while footballing.

e: also the new Sound type will be introduced for Groovy Monkey, Grass/Sound/Fighting. It will be retroactively applied like Fairy to Jigglypuff, Whismur, and moves like Growl and Howl.
