I'm personally gonna go with Mega Venusaur but only because then I get to have one starter of each type (Froakie, Bulbasaur, Torchic). Then I can act like I'm playing some alternate dimension's Yellow version by adding some electric type in that team's mix.
Here's to hoping the final evolutions of the Gen VI starters are Fire/Psychic, Water/Dark, Grass/Fighting.
I have heard from a very unreliable (emphasis on word unreliable) source that the starters are going to either be that, or Fire/Psychic + Water/Fighting + Grass/Dark. I can't remember which one it was but there was someone who allegedly leaked a whole lot of alleged information including that.
I've heard pretty much the same thing besides Grass/Dark. But I could see how Grass/Dark makes sense. Apparently Froakie's 3rd evo is gonna be some kind of poison dart frog thing. I think it's pretty obvious at least with Fennekin and Froakie + their evos that their types will end up being Fire/Psychic and Water/Fighting.
You sure about that? Froakie/Frogadier keeps using bounce which is flying type and Grass/Fighting has a 4x weakness to flying type moves. Not to mention these starters look heavily based off of Fighter, Mage, and Rouge from RPGs (Chespin's line = Fighter/Warrior, Quilladin is Quill + Paladin. Fennekin's line = mage. Braixen even has a broomstick tail thing. Froakie's line = Rouge. Don't tell me Frogadier don't look like a rouge.)
Gonna put this here as well.
Via Nintendo:
When Chespin evolves into Quilladin, the hard spikes on its body grow even sturdier, and its able to withstand the impact of even something the size of a tractor-trailer truck without flinching. Its solid shell repels attacks while it strikes back with its pointed spines. The gentle Spiny Armor Pokémon never seeks out battles on its own, but when an opposing Pokémon strikes, it fights back! It can learn the Ground-type move Mud Shot, which does damage to opponents and lowers their Speed. This move is super effective against Fire-type Pokémon, which are usually tough opponents for Grass types like Quilladin.
Braixen is the evolved form of the Fire-type Fox Pokémon Fennekin. Players will notice that Braixen keeps a small twig tucked into its tail. Fennekin often snacks on a twig, but Braixen uses it in another waythe twig calms its mind and is also sometimes used in battle after being set aflame with a little friction. Braixen can learn the Psychic-type move Psyshock, a special move that deals damage based on the opponents Defense, as if it were a physical move. Players will want to use Psyshock on opponents that have high Special Defense.
Froakie has awesome jumping skills that are greatly improved when it evolves into Frogadier. This Bubble Frog Pokémon can reach to the top of a 2,000-foot tower with ease and eludes its opponents by leaping around ceilings or into trees. Frogadier can learn the Flying-type move Bounce, which sends the user into the air on its first turn so it can attack on the second. Bounce is super effective against Grass-type Pokémon, which often pose a challenge for Water types like Frogadier.
