Well, this confirms what I've seen for the final starter evolutions, Noibat, Binacle, Fletchinder, and Goomy.
Chesnaught, Delphox, and Greninja's second types come as no surprise to me, especially after seeing what they looked like. I am very annoyed by Greninja's tougue scarf, on that note.
After Doublade, I really wasn't expect yet ANOTHER evolution for Honedge. However, Aegislash, far from disappointing, is probably my favorite out of all the new Pokemon on here! I love that they actually used a bit of creativity here and gave it a shield, rather then making it three swords together, somehow.
As for Diggersby?
Kill it. Kill it with fire and water and random household objects.
The odd thing is, I like Clauncher, but not its evolution; that massive claw in comparison to the rest of its body is a little over the top for me. By contrast, I don't like Skrelp, but Dragalge, its evolution, looks kind of cool to me.
As predicted, Helioptile got an evolution, and one that I kind of like.
Ah, Orotto's English name! I like Trevenant, but not its pre-evolution, nor do I like the
other Ghost/Grass line....at all.
The Binacle line can also die. Major dislike emanating from me every time I see either Pokemon in that line. I mean seriously, I hand for a head?!
The Goomy line's alright, but Noibat? Thank you, Game Freak, for that Noivern pre-evolution!
And lastly, Zygrade. Looks like we will be getting a Pokemon Z with this guy on the cover, and as I predicted, this Pokemon is green. I noticed how there is only 3 Legendaries, the least amount of them ever. At first, I was in a state of disbelief, but then I remembered the Mega Pokemon, which sort of explains it for me. I think, instead events centered around Legendaries for distribution, such as with Pokemon like Keldeo and Darkrai, we will get a few Mega Stones with the first form of the Pokemon at these events.
