pacificpikachuGotta post Gen V impressions! Even though I'm studying for my Art History final, it's my duty as a Pokémon fan!
My immediate response was "meh" on the starters, but given a mere couple of minutes to slow down and actually look at them, they already started growing on me! Fire piggy is my favorite--he's sooo cute and enthusiastic-looking! I want a plush of him. ;A; Kind of disappointed that the grass starter is another lizard-y thing, as I was really hoping for a bird, but I do like his eyes and his design is actually rather cool. The otter I'm torn on--on one hand "OTTERRRR!" and he is kinda cute, and on the other hand I really don't like his color scheme and he's sort of derpy. Still, overall I like them all (I think I like them better than the Sinnoh starters, actually) and I think they'll continue to grow on me. I'm so curious about their evolutions now! :D I am unable to rank them in order of favorites--I like them about equally with the piggy just a little ahead of the other two.
I can't see myself wildly collecting any of them, but that's probably for the best seeing as starters get so much merch and I already collect one starter (Chikorita). I would maybe like a plush or a few of each, and if they get 1/1 plush of course I'll be all over that! Their evolutions we'll have to see--depending on how the otter's evolutions look, that's a possibility.
As for trainers, the boy is ADORABLE. Countdown to me creepily saving fanart of him and likely pairing him with someone in 3...2...1. XDDD The girl is cute, too, though her hair seems a little out of control, hahaha.
Anyway, I'm excited and feel sorry for people who are all skeptical and unhappy. Don't worry, there are plenty of other Pokémon still to be released! I for one can't wait to see them all. *A*
Also, I won this awesome lot this morning: http://page4.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/d104631144
:D
Back to studying!
