Bunnelby is a cute wittle wabbit but I'm somewhat disappointed that it isn't a Ground-type. Even though its evolution is likely to add the Ground-type dual type (and it better with a classification like "Digging Pokemon") I'm not overly fond of how many Normal-type dual-types are popping up this Gen. It just seems a bit excessive when so few Pokemon have been revealed thus far and we still have no idea what the total 'dex size will look like.

Ah well. Guess I'll just cross my fingers and hope that once it's all said and done we've received a nice range of type combos, and it's hard to fault a potential Normal/Ground-type evolution too much when we haven't had one yet in the past... xp

Bunnelby is cute and I love it and want to hug it forever. ♥

It's true that I'm not all that fond of the thing being a normal type either, especially when it could have easily been part ground, but they might still evolve it, so I guess we shall see. Either way I'm quietly content with it for now. ^^

Funnily enough as soon as I saw it I thought you'd love it, haha!

It should be a Ground Type, but hopefully it will evolve into a Ground Bunny from hell

While I can't say I'm excited that another Normal-Type rabbit has been introduced, the fact that it is the "Digging Pokemon" actually makes it more interesting than Bunneary/Loppuny ever were, in my opinion. Now, I wonder if it will have an evolution?

Oh, and now we get shovel-ears on top of tail-hands?

My guess, it'll be similar to Bidoof and Bibarel and end up evolving into a Normal/Ground type
