So How About Them New Starters? Part V

There's more data out, and it's official: the fire pig starter is naturally the fattest. Or at least the heaviest. Also, the reason why the sprites look so underdone in the screenshots is because we're supposed to see them in idle poses and such. There's only so much room on a Nintendo DS card, even with the latest compression algorithms, so it's about time for a new system. Also, the game might take place in alternate China.

Back to the topic of the starters themselves, once you see enough decent fanart of them, you can start to get used to them. The official art dictates how they're supposed to look, but with individuals applying their own tweaks to the designs, they come out looking pretty decent. Still, we've yet to see most of the hundred or so new Pokémon in this upcoming Generation. One thing, if they're going to keep adding evolutions to previous Generations, they'd better look decent and related enough, have some benefits worth the wait as well, and be given to those most deserving. People seem to toss around rumors of a Dunsparce evolution. If it will be done, it must be done right, or it doesn't evolve at all. This applies to many others as well.
