Grass/Fairy would be the best typing for Sprigatito

 

[Astro Pantherion]

Somehow, I can't shake off the feeling that Sprigatito is going to be Puss in Boots, thus, Grass/Fighting. That said, another idea I saw pop up recently in Reddit, is that the starters of Gen 9 are taking another RPG Archetype approach, namely "The Princess", "The Dragon" and "The Hero"

Sprigatito Final Evo = Grass/Fairy - (The Princess)
Fuecoco Final Evo = Fire/Poison - (The Dragon/Serpent - based on Saint George's Dragon)
Quaxly Final Evo = Water/Fighting - (The Hero)

That said, if Sprigatito ended up as Puss in Boots, he'd be the Hero, and Quaxly would be the Princess archetype.

If so, this dual type setup could be very unique.

Interesting. If they do do the princess/hero/dragon approach I feel like that would lend credence to Sprigatito being grass/fairy

 

[PinkIceFox]

Princess fairy cat would be amazing. Yes.

 

[blitzle stan]

Sprigatito for sure is the most likely to go “Princess” if any of the three do, since it already has the pinkish eyes while Quaxly is already stated to be the “cool” one and Fuecoco just does not give me a Princess vibe.

A frilly mane and pink nose was enough to show that Popplio becomes a mermaid, so it’s for sure possible.

Princess-Dragon-Hero would make a really cool trio actually, yeah.

Please don't ruin my glorious death cat by turning it into some Hello Kitty reject by lumping it into a princess stereotype.
She needs to grow up to be a strong, lithe, fearless destroyer. Not some useless prima donna.

If you need to have a female stereotype, dump it on the duck. Doesn't even stop it from turning into a Pirate(Anne Bonny and Mary Read were a thing).

 

[BackSet]

What, Sprigatito isn't allowed to turn into Xena?

 

[UltraDoyle64924]

I highly hope the final evolutions types will be, Fire/Poison, Grass/Fairy and Water/Steel if this ends up being true, I called it.

That would make Quaxly's evolutions too similar to Piplup.

Tbf that didn’t stop them from doing three fire fighting starters in a row

They're all separate animals. You must be missing something.

you can do a lot with water/steel birds. quaxly isnt a penguin.

 

[KerfishSea]

Quaxly's a duck-

And here i thought it was a tiger.

Like some people, i want Sprigatito to remain quadrupedal on their last stage. Obviously i can still end up not liking the design because it can still be bad even if i want them to be a certain way, but it can make me go at least a little more lenient on their design if they stay quadrupedal.

 

[KerfishSea]

Idrc if sprigatito stands on two legs (if it ends up looking like puss in boots or one of those flamenco dancers)

 

[JohtonianZoroark]

I haven’t selected a Grass starter since Chikorita…that may well change this next generation

 

[Deleted member 72389]

I like Sprigatito so much! She looks like a very cute, adorable kitty! The other two are also cute, but this is definitely my favorite starter! I hope it gets a great evolution!

 

[PinkIceFox]

I just realized the grass starters that I like enough to equal or surpass my like of the fire starter look pretty similar.

Chikorita and Sprigatito both have the same colors. Light green with darker green and pink-red eyes. Treecko has the same, but with added yellow in the eyes.

 

[Deadman]

My tradition is to always choose the Grass starter and I LOVE cats so it's perfect. I just hope it's final evolution is more like a Persian than a Machoke. I do avoid anything remotely spoilers so I wouldn't know if it was already revealed thus I'll have myself surprised as much as possible (though honestly, I don't expect that good of a game but no point complaining because it will still sell like hotcakes anyway, which means the quality won't ever rise with there being no need to deliver a good, completed game so I just try my best to enjoy what I get with all it's flaws).

 

[PinkIceFox]

^Hey look its the grass type variant of me. This is exactly how I felt when Litten was revealed since I always choose the fire stater traditionally. Only exceptions I've made in my whole life are Alpha Sapphire when I picked Treecko and now Sprigatito. Of course I tend to pick Bulbasaur and Chikorita for Nuzlockes when I play Leaf Green and Soul Silver but that's an entirely different scenario.

Now we sit and wait for the water cat to complete the trio and the crazy cat ladies and gentlemen of the world will ascend to their final forms.

How do I put up those "fan of sprigatito" badges?
