They have a lot of fighting type starters for various reasons. For one, the first gym is always rock and fighting is super effective against it. In addition, kids playing the game think that fighting types are ultra cool and want a starter that is, well, ULTRA COOL. Also I'm pretty sure most pokemon developers think fighting is extremely viable in a battle, but I can't say for sure.
Kind of. At least from a Japanese perspective. If I had to guess, the conception mainly comes from when England colonized India, and brought back Indian curry with them, and since the Japanese and UK love curry, a lot of anime treats it as a British staple, with the biggest example I can think being Black Butler.
All pokemon fight. I mean sure it's useful but at this point it's overdone for a starter. I don't care for fighting type just like I don't care for rock type- Rockruff and Lycanroc being the only acception. I want to see types that haven't been used, especially for a starter. Honestly, I'd like to break away from grass, fire, water, even if i know that'll never happen.

After playing the series on the DS for several years, it's kind of awkward going back to a single screen.
Exactly why are you evolving your starter before the first gym?
There's shit like strategy guides and Bulbapedia if you're hung up on typ matchups. Plus, Sun & Moon kept track of how good your moves would be after you'd already killed a critter.
As someone who was terrible at the games as a kid you can beat literally everything if you over level, save right before the fight, and have heal items.
Well, now we know what happened to the Dexit casualties...
I doubt it uses up too much dataJust so we're clear Alcremie get's a shit ton of variants
I like them and the diversity for a single pokemon species is nice but given how they were whining over having over 1000 pokemon forms including gender differences and have to literally take some pokemon out because there's too many, I feel this is much too excessive. I hope it uses as little data as possible but the multiple Lillies does not give me much hope.
I'll cream ye?
They're supposed to be different flavors but the current alcremie flavor count is 26. There are twenty fucking six of these
It doesn't hold a candle to the literal 4.2 million Spinda variants, and honestly this reveal really rubs me the wrong way in light of their reasons for why they're not doing the National Dex for this game.Just so we're clear Alcremie get's a shit ton of variants
