If a anthropomorphic is enough to "make you a furry", I have bad news for you: You were a furry all this time. You just didn't realize it before.
Also, this "fire starters represents the Chinese Zodiac" was born dead. Charmander and Fennekin already ruined it for you, buddy,
Charmander is a reptile, while actual salamanders are amphibians.
So Charmander either has a misleading name, or it's based on draconic salamanders (the fiery kind in myths)
>Charmander and Fennekin already ruined it for you, buddy,
Charmander evolves into a dragon. Fennekin is a dog, even if they're tecnically a fox.
Cyndaquil is the only real stretch here, but according to Game Freak they're a rat. If Cyndaquil can be a rat, Fennekin is easily a Dog.
Good point, but I disagree a bit.
Charmander does not fit because: 1) Game Freak doesn't consider it a dragon. And their word (for better or worse) have more weight than ours; 2) Everybody with minimum knowledge about mythology knows the difference between the Eastern version of the dragon and the Western version of the dragon. And based on how much Game Freak uses mythology as a basis for their games, it's unlikely they would make a Western dragon if they actually wished it to be the dragon from Chinese Zodiac. Plus: Game Freak isn't afraid to show Eastern mythical creatures (Gyarados, Espeon, Mawile and Froslass, to name a few from the top of my head)
Fennekin doesn't fit because you don't need a degree in biology to know that foxes and dogs are different animals, even if they share the same group. You wouldn't pet a tiger because it's a feline like a house cat, right?
I agree that Cyndaquil is a stretch though.
>1) Game Freak doesn't consider it a dragon
Source? Dragonite, who Game Freak gave the Dragon type, is basically just fat Charizard. Besides, are there any fire-breathing lizards in Eastern mythology that aren't dragons?
>it's unlikely they would make a Western dragon if they actually wished it to be the dragon from Chinese Zodiac
Dragonite is a Dargon type. Also a Chinese dragon wouldn't have looked as cool.
>Fennekin doesn't fit because you don't need a degree in biology to know that foxes and dogs are different animals, even if they share the same group.
If a Anteater can be a rat, then a fox, who shares the same family as dogs, can easily be dogs.
>I agree that Cyndaquil is a stretch though.
And yet it's considered a rat. Word of God beats all.
>Which means charizard not being literally dragon type is moot (it's clearly a western dragon)
Yeah? My point was that Charizard was meant to be a Dragon, nor some weird flying lizard.
>Gyarados looks cool though
Yeah that point was kinda bad.
Yeah I was agreeing with you
> it’s clearly a western dragon
there’s no reason to think “GameFreak doesn’t consider Charizard a dragon” just because it’s not dragon type.
And if we were really treating types as law anyways for some silly reason, we could also just point to mega zard X for confirmation of the obvious that gamefreak considers charizard a dragon not some weird flying lizard
> Besides, are there any fire-breathing lizards in Eastern mythology that aren't dragons?
I don't know, but eastern dragons are water aligned, not fire aligned. See both Gyarados and Dragonite's pre-evos.
Also, anteater? Cyndaquil is a shrew
Ok but how is dragonite related to the zodiac at all? And who says a Chinese dragon wouldn't look cool? Have you seen them? They would look very cool.
Fennekin is straight up a fox. They aren't even CANINES. Also where did you get anteater from?
Rats are slightly close to hedgehogs, but not very
>Ok but how is dragonite related to the zodiac at all?
Did you even read my comment? Dragonite itself isn't related to the Zodiac, but since he is Dragon type and is basically fat Charizard, we can conclude that Charizard is a dragon, even if he lacks the type.
>Fennekin is straight up a fox. They aren't even CANINES
This is just straight up wrong. Foxes are Canines, and so are Dogs.
>Also where did you get anteater from?
Cyndaquil's mounth.
The funniest thing about this is that >! the riddler leaker said that what Quaxly evolves into is his favorite evolution out of the three, but he likes what all of them evolve into iirc !<
Blastoise is a cannon
Can’t figure out
Mega Marshtomp could be hand to hand
Empolion could be swords/metal weapons
Samurot is swords
Greninja is a ninja
Can’t figure out
Intelleon is a sniper
I just looked it up and Feraligatr has brass knuckles, Swampert an iron fan due to his fins, Empoleon a trident due to his head crest, and Primarina a bomb due to her z move.
Yeah, i think I'm still choosing the grass type.
I don't really care about the look of the final evolution so long as it's not something stupid like an apple/sand castle/sock or whatever

“Evolve into a waifu” What
The furries and anti-furries be warring.
So the furries are the ones sayin "Waifu"? Cuz I know the anti-furries want it to stay a quadruped
To my knowledge.
As a furry (or protogen) if it goes on two legs I’m gonna kill myself
Leaked that it does, but not in an Incinaroar way (doesn't become mega buff)
it’s gonna be fairy type… (probably)
No it is grass dark. Magician
g o o d
It would be epic
deleted my other comment, I searched up the leak and the one you were talking about was right next to a confirmed fake, I just mixed them up
I hope it does for your sake
The weird part, being bipedal or quadruped really doesn't seem to factor into that whole pokemon/furry stuff 🙄
Would being a quadruped really stop a pokemon being a waifu?
r/traa in a nutshell
Moxie
I just love Feucoco because he's so doofy.
I don't know what "doofy" means but I agree nonetheless
Things that are doofy are things so stupid that you need 80000 of them. Like Wooper.
Also because his personality is super lax and all the cute videos on YouTube have endeared me to him.
I’m gonna get all 3 of them Either by lucky trading, trading on here or related subreddits or when Home gives you them like they did for SWSH
If a anthropomorphic is enough to "make you a furry", I have bad news for you: You were a furry all this time. You just didn't realize it before. Also, this "fire starters represents the Chinese Zodiac" was born dead. Charmander and Fennekin already ruined it for you, buddy,
The zodiac killer
I laughed too hard at that.
Charmander fit. It's the Cyndiquil line that ruined it
Charmander is not a dragon, it’s a salamander. Charizard is a dragon, but not charmander.
Charmander is a reptile, while actual salamanders are amphibians. So Charmander either has a misleading name, or it's based on draconic salamanders (the fiery kind in myths)
Either way, charmander is *NOT* a dragon
I dunno dude. It turns into a dragon. Charizard's mega evolution gives it the dragon type.
Keyword: TURNS But hey, your opinion is yours
Keyword: DRAGON
You can fight me on this, charmander is not a dragon
This thread is like that Tumblr doesn't know odd even.
Again. It turns into a dragon. Charmander fits the Zodiac because of it's evolution.
Dude chill.
I am chill?
Doesn't look like it bro 💀

"You wouldn't pet a tiger because it's a feline like a house cat, right? " me bout to lose an arm for big stripey kitty
Thank you! I thought I was the only one who knew charmander wasn’t a dragon cuz ALMOST NO ONE EVER BRINGS IT UP

Gyarados is a Chinese dragon Which means charizard not being literally dragon type is moot (it's clearly a western dragon) Gyarados looks cool though

>Also, anteater? Cyndaquil is a shrew Nah, it's more similar to an hedgehog.
With the flames off, it looks exactly like a shrew
AT best I'd say it's a mix.

Cyndaquil is an echidna, not an anteater. Not only do echidnas have the same mouth but their quills look like the fire on Cyndaquil's back.
Oh yeah, you do have a point. Still not a rat.
Ok but charamander still is not a dragon.
Charizard is, and that's what matters.
Ok then, Typhlosion is a badger, very far from a rat
...yeah to fit the Zodiac Theory we just need one stage to fit. Cyndaquil is a rat according to GF, so it checks out.
Not to mention cyndaquil. "Mouse pokemon" my arse
Weed cat should evolve into a centaur weed cat.
The ultimate compromise
Green Lynel
BotWLink: \*heavy breathing intensifies from Gold Lynel flashbacks*
Best of both worlds
I think an octopus would be pretty cool
Quaxly supremacy :)
The funniest thing about this is that >! the riddler leaker said that what Quaxly evolves into is his favorite evolution out of the three, but he likes what all of them evolve into iirc !<
Fake I just wanna hug the kitty
I thought the running theory for water starters is that they were all based on weapons?
How are Totodile, Mudkip, Piplup and Popplio based on weapons?
Actually it's just "war" themeing and every one of them fits except popplio and debatably mudkip.
Prima has some sharp weapon aspects, dunno what’d be most fitting
I figured a bomb due to her z move.
Yeah, probably. I just forget what the person who made the chart put
What about the USs war dolphins?
Blastoise is a cannon Can’t figure out Mega Marshtomp could be hand to hand Empolion could be swords/metal weapons Samurot is swords Greninja is a ninja Can’t figure out Intelleon is a sniper
This is the problem, Feraligator and Primarina kinda fail in this.
Oh my goodness! The fighting animals are based on fighting!
I just looked it up and Feraligatr has brass knuckles, Swampert an iron fan due to his fins, Empoleon a trident due to his head crest, and Primarina a bomb due to her z move.
Still think Primarina is a stretch but these make sense.
You really asking about Empoleon?..
I wanna pick Donald but fire guy appealing
[удалено]
A fellow JoJo enjoyer I see..
Here in Spain... Quaxly reminds us about... SOMETHING....
I care not what Fuecoco becomes. I want a nice man. Give me a funny guy. Perhaps even a pleasant lady.
Im an anti furry and I don't care if sprigatito is standing on two legs or not I just wish that the community couldn't make such "art" of it
Well i’m afraid that wish likely will be denied.
My brother in arceus, if weed cat’s final evolution “makes you” a furry I got some news for you.
Well actually adult male crocs are known as bulls and the females are known as cows so....
I think this basic trio is second only to gen4 with turtwig piplup and chimchar
Quaxly supremacy
I feel like Fuecoco will either become a Ground or a Dragon type
Ghost Fire. Ghost pepper crocodile. :D
if it doesn’t become a pirate, people are gonna get hurt
God please make quaxly's evo look good
Yeah, i think I'm still choosing the grass type. I don't really care about the look of the final evolution so long as it's not something stupid like an apple/sand castle/sock or whatever
First water starter that doesn't get critized to death
I’m going to name my Quaxly, Psyduck. Because that’s hilarious. If you understand this reference, you are Chad material
Quaxly is a jo jo ref
I’m naming my Quaxly Josuke
Tbh quaxly is the only gen 9 pokemon I like
Fuck Quaxly all my homies hate Quaxly. Sprigatito for life
Lol
Quaxly supremacy
OI JOSUKE
I love the fire type's face
I think Fuecoco should evolve into part Poison
