    Yo, fellow Poke' lovers! My favorite is Feraligatr, but I love most pokemon. I've lots of pokemon hatched/caught, are willing to trade some.

    If on the GTS you recieved a lv 100 mightyena named Xigbar that had crunch, shadow ball, dig and hyper beam-I traded him without knowing how the GTS works-are willing to trade nearly anything I have for it back.

    I can definitely see what you mean. I guess it makes sense, since Fennec Foxes are desert animals. Although I don't think that white tuft means anything (other than that Fennekin is cute).

    Since the region is based on France, maybe it'll become a Can-Can dancer.

    It doesn't have to be sensual or anything...

    Even if its not intentional, its still a belly dancer, its kind of hard for it not to be.

    Who wants slim/bulky froakie?

    I kinda think Froakie will end up kinda fat looking. I mean it's a frog. In a region based on France, no less. And we know what the french do with frogs...

    Seriously though, I just can't imagine Froakie being slim. The white thing on it's back looks kinda like a cloud, maybe it'll end up looking kinda like those frog-gods from Wind Waker.

    I thought the same. But I think a good alternative for the clud-like appendage on Froakie's neck could be some sort of cape. Like all starters, I think the cape examplifies royalty, or in combat, swiftness, and the cape grows longer as Froakie evolves (hypothetically).

    As it's final evolution, I think Froakie would look like some sort of vagabound with a rather serious glance similar to Samurott's or Empoleon's.

    I never thought of it as a cape, but now that I think about it, I can see it. I thought it looked more like either a cloud or a parka or something. Maybe Froakie will evolve into a Water/Ice Eskimo frog. Another reason I think that?
        Spoiler:- Ice Beam?:

    Of course, that could just be a coincidence, early placeholder graphics, me looking too much into things, etc.

    That'd make him lose the grass weakness. and if you want a triangle, chespin steel, fennekin ground.

    Actually, the only type Ice resists is itself. He'd still be hit by grass super-effectively, although he could hit it SE too if that's what you meant.

    Fennekin as a ground-type actually makes sense though. Fennec Foxes are desert animals, after all.

    Except Grass does neutral damage to Ice! I think Froaki will evolve into a gentleman type frog, becoming Water/Electric and be based of Benjamin Franklin/Zeus.

    Maybe he'll get spiky hair and smug look when he evolves, so I can name him Gary Froak.

    IIRC, there actually was a greek myth or fable or w/e where some frogs prayed to Zeus for a king. He gave them a log. Obviously this means Froakie will be Water/Electric/Grass! Seriously though, Water/Electric is probably one of my favorite guesses so far. Maybe that's why he's holding his hand up to his ear: He's listening for a storm.

    Oops, my bad. I suppose he could it se though, as you said. If fennekin's ground, it could boost his defense a bit.

    Why not? They've done a variety of type combinations already. There's the Sinnoh starters, the fire/fighting types, Bulbasaur, Swampert being water/ground, and Charizard being fire/flying. I don't think it's so farfetch'd to think that there might be a water/electric starter. If not this gen, maybe next gen. If Froakie turns out to be water/electric, I may have to reconsider choosing Chespin as my starter. It's gonna have to also depend what type Chespin turns out to be.

    I can certainly see Froakie becoming a Water/Electric type, that cloud on it's back could easily turn into a thunder cloud of some sort.

    Since I'm picking froakie I'd love if his foam became a regal cape!

    Golurk ghost/rock
    Fennekin: (fire)
