Description
Why does nobody like me? *sigh*Out of all the starters, this water guy ("Mijumaru," possibly) seems to be getting the most flack. I think he's pretty cute, personally, and a fair interpretation of the sea otter as a PokΓ©mon. It doesn't look like a beaver or a weasel or Bidoof or wtf else to me, although I can see where the clown complaint is coming from.
I'm still seething over the grass starter being another reptile, though. Unless it evolves into a grass/flying archaeopteryx... Um... I won't like it as much?

Fine, I admit that you have made this thing grow on me. >> Maybe if its final evo is cool and Water/Ice (I love Water-Ice types!) I will end up using it, lolo. I will name it "Kheisa the Sea Tanuki". :3
Ah but lol i love the grass guy so much I will probably choose him anyway. But at least I don't hate Majimaru anymore.
Can you guess who this is? :3

First I thought you were the girl I had to convince that these were the official designs of the starters because of your avatar (she had a rotating one with the eeveelutions in it), but then I recognized your writing (isn't it weird how you can recognise people's typing voices?) and I was like "LOL HI PRINZ."
And then I read the rest of the post and then I saw the grouzzle (they're like mongozzles but cooler) (would you like a grouzzle avatar? I could make you one) in your gallery and was sure.
Heh, I'm not sure "Kheisa the Sea Tanuki" will fit, but whatever floats your boat (like ice! ice floats!)~ x3
I totally understand the love for the grass starter, though. I'd love it best myself if I didn't feel so bad for poor Mijumaru. D: I'm waiting for the final forms before making my final decision, though.

:3 I actually like all three of the starters. Though admitedly, I have no "vision" on what this guy will look like when he grows up... (mega-otter?) O. o
And though normally I get a "water starter".. um... PIIIIIGGGYY! (I will name him Bwee, go figure).

Ooh, mega-otter makes me think of those extinct ground sloths. Wouldn't it be cool if it grew into something that looked like those?
I keep expecting it to grow porcupine quills thanks to you! >.> I will be disappoint when it doesn't.

Mijumaru is cute, but it's still my least favorite out of the three.
I AGREE, I HOPE THE GRASS STARTER IS GRASS/FLYING ;__; But I love it anyway.

i actually am growing use to this little guy already. I feel bad that everybody hates him and he's barely out of the poke-womb XD
I just think the way they drew him turns most people off. I think that they could've added a smile on his face or a bit more color and shine to his eyes.
but anyway, you made him look ULTRA CUTE! and thanks to this i like him more

There's no way to blame this, cuz is a thing called "opinions"
I don't have a good opinion of that....snowman thing neither.
Unless it get cool evolved forms, I will remain negative of that water starter.

Mmmhmm. I know.
... Eeeeehhheheh, I'd probably cry if it evolved into a snowman thing. I think it has a lot of potential as far as sea otters and evolved forms go.

I have no real opinion of the starters as of yet. I typically base it on what there evolutions look like. I agree though that this one is very cute and was the one who caught my eye first.

I'm hoping it ends up with a nice final form, that way I won't feel stupid about defending it. xD

i agree. he's really not thaaat bad. also, it's pretty clever how they made the design on his stomach look like a clam/shellfish, just like how real sea otters hold their marine meals on their bellies while floating on their backs. XD

Kheisa In reply to pedropete [2010-05-12 21:16:52 +0000 UTC]
Ironically, the shell is kind of what I dislike most about it-- unless they do something really cool with it in the evolutions. It seems to me a very heavy-handed way to say "look! i'm a sea otter! hey look!"... Although given the number of people who think it looks like a bear/Bidoof/beaver, evidently heavy-handed isn't heavy enough. xD
As heavy-handed as it is, though, I agree that it's nice they incorporated part of the sea otter's eating habits onto the design. :3

i see your point. maybe i took it to be subtle when it's not. wonder how long we'll have to wait to see their evos....
