Based only on what we've seen, Grookey. Because he's a grass monkey, a funky monkey. I want to see evolutions for each of them though.

idk..he might be a dual type (as doesnt look fully monkey)


i personally will go for fire type (only 2 grass i ever liked were bulbasaur and snivy and only water i liked were squirtle, totadile, piplup) as its typically rarest type in games.

gen 1 blastoise or venusaur(i never picked charizard because you can get moltres which basically does its job and venusaur can be hm slave for cut and blastoise for surf which are useful for play through)

Gen 2 Hands down typhlosion, srs its the collest one and there is hardly any decent fire types in johto.

Gen 3 Swampert for sure, water ground is one of the best type combos, if the enemy doesn't have a grass move you basically can kill it.

Gen 4 empoleon, a stell type was very usefull on this gen, its great for hm slave and taking care of many pokemons due to its resists.

gen 5 this gen i really didnt like any starter tbh so i just picked the water one for surf and waterfall.

gen 6 Amazing greninja, who doesnt like a ninja frog really fast as hell and deadly.

Gen 7 Decidueye, ghost starter ftw.



So yeah im kinda biased on water i mean 5 water types, one grass and one fire, i always go for the most unique typing or cool design and if i dont like any water for hm slave although we will probably dont need one this gen, so it really depends on typings and designs of the last evos of this gen.

I usually avoid the Water type as there's so many in the game, you're bound to catch a decent water during the adventure anyway... Since, ooh, Gen4 I've been playing with my 2 lads though, so have plumped for whichever one that's left (Team Instinct in Pokemon Go ftw! ...because the lads chose Valor and Mystic... and sshh but Zapdos is probably my all time fave Pokemon anyway)

Anyway my 2 little boys will be 19 and 18yo when this hits store shelves, with the eldest long since left for Uni too. But I'll still end up having whatever's left! And in this case, where none of them really seem to have any 'character' about 'em anyway, I'm not too fussed about it either! ;)

I'll choose Scorbunny and hack the Sobble in as an egg or something. Win-Win :P
IIRC, Nintendo can detect such thing if used online
It actually could with 3ds
As in, if you had a pokemon you shouldn't be able to have...
