I think the starter fire pokemon final form is based on those singing skulls from Day of the Dead. Buts that's in Mexico and this game in taking place in Spain.

I wouldn't expect the nips to give a shit about that subtlety (and I hope they keep not giving a shit).

Right of the bat fire starter wins purely on not being humanoid. Well that and I like ghost types.

Yeah its based on Day of the Dead Calaveras/sugar skulls.

Also there's already people complaining about how it's culturally insensitive/"bad research" on GameFreak's part for putting Mexican designs (sombrero, Day of the Dead, quesadillas as a food item) in a game set in Spain lol. Reminds me of the idiots who trash talk Ludicolo and say it either needs to be redesigned or removed.

I was planning on going Fuecoco, since I like alligators & crocodiles, and Ghost type is my favorite typing, but there's just something about Skeledirge's design I'm not entirely fond of.

Also Chadsire is a top tier design and will have a spot on my team.

I love my nigga father. He's cool, I'm actually happy about him.
So it looks like the starters are also inspired by not just Spain, but two of its biggest colonies it influenced, Mexico & Brazil.
Spain- Sprigattio
Mexico- Fuecoco
Brazil- Quaxly
I think Quaxly will be Brazilian based because it's the dancer pokemon & it's a fighting type? I think it uses capoeria.
 
I get the love for Neighbor Wooper but that Tauros is wearing straight up blackface and I can't un-see it. It even looks like black grease paint and has a red mouth :story:

My brief thoughts on the starters' evos:

Fuecoco's is meh, I actually don't hate Sprigatito's (although, I'm a fan of magicians so I'm biased) and Quaxly is pretty cool.

Quaxly won design wise, if you ask me.

And on a side note:

It's name is literally NaCl and I love that so much.
 
Two more 'mons have leaked:

The 2-headed pepper kappa:

The worm:

My thoughts: the worm is alright, it's a neat take on an earthworm. Fuck the peppermon. I was excited at the prospect of a 2-headed pepper kappa, and that design looks awful to me. Huge disappointment.

A heavily sweating feverish Japanese man bursts into Game Freaks packed conference room "Guys great idea for a new pokemon design, Tyranitar but MORE green"
Dead silence in the room... Head Developer slowly stands up and starts slowly clapping " Takeshi this is why we pay you the big yens"
Takeshi's ancestors look on from Heaven in pride.
