Topic: predictions/wishful thinking of the types for the gen 9 pokemon starters

Posted under Off Topic

So, the new starters came out, and...most of them look nice, I think we can all agree that quaxly is going to be a water/flying type, but what about the other two, personally I think fuecoco is going to be a fire/ghost type because of the skull-like face design, and as for sprigatito, I'm really hoping for a grass/steel type so I can finally move away from ferrothorn as my go to grass type.
what does everyone else think?

I think it's way too soon to speculate what the final starter forms types are going to be. Fuecoco becoming fire/ghost could work given the idea of ghost peppers (as fuecoco is designed after a pepper), but it could also be fire/ground (since peppers grow out of the ground) or fire/grass (since peppers grow off of a plant). Or it could stay pure fire (I don't think there's been a fire starter that's remained pure fire since Typhlosion). Who knows what the evolution designs could do to it. Same for quaxly and sprigatito (I'm still a bit salty over what they did to litten; such an out-of-left-field design change for the third form).

Sprigatito will clearly become grass/fire type as a deeper reference to weed.

If it's not made dex number 420, what's the point really.

No, see, it consumes pokemon 420.
It's just more that it preys on cherubi but you can pretend
