You don't call it a ripoff since its from the same game that created both of the pokemon. Also they are of different animal species( Oshawott(Otter) vs Poppolio(Sea Lion) - Fennekin(Fennec fox) vs Litten (Native species of Cat in hawaii?)  so i don't think the creators were lazy about the design. 

 

Read somewhere that the pokemon company people always took special attention to the design of a new gen's starters. They had the reflect what the new region is like yet had to appeal to both a new player as a trusted partner and an experienced player as a valuable team member.

 

Of course certain designs work more than others hence new gens always had the same archetype (a bird-like type, a cute electric mouse type). Hence I think for Sun and Moon where the design of the game has changed so radically, they really wanted something familiar yet representative of the new Hawaii inspired region.

Super excited to see how their evolutions look like though. I'm in love with Litten. Wonder if they'd stick to the Chinese zodiac theme and turn Litten into a fire tiger.

 

Then again, Fennekin is a fennec fox, despite foxes being more related to dogs than they are to cats, kinda seemed like they broke the chain there

Although, it would be nice to see it evolve to a cool black tiger with flame stripes

Pokemon Champion tells Psychic/Fairy type Pokemon to use a Ghost-type move on Water/Dark Pokemon, repeatedly. Champions these days, tsk tsk

Hoping to go early and queue on the 27th the probably make it a weekly affair haha. Looking forward to the merch and pikachu serial codes. Apparently collectors over the world are seeking for the these event pikachus already. Helping a Japanese friend to get some, and i saw people from US looking to trade.

 

Speaking of collectors, anyone still collecting the TCG? Recent expansion like the radiant collection has pretty nice artwork. ( ☆∀☆)

I have confirmed this with the organisers as i am using a JPN region console myself. Japanese 3ds can redeem the code.

i just went today. waited around 5 hours+ so i just stood and talked cock with my friends.. the presentation was the main part of the thing I went for. presentation wise wasnt very disappointed. had the pancake and omelette rice.. well obviously since me and my friends all wanted the pokeball cup. the rice nothing special. not much egg either. i thought it was the rice wrapped in egg.. turns out the omelette was only the ears. nothing special. the pancakes were... dry and hard. mine wasnt hot when i got it. but its quite thick. the serving was 2 pieces and i was very full after eating it. overall was ok i guess? nothing special. but its just the hype.

 

im just wondering whats so special about the pikachu code..

Haha yeah when it was my turn the volt tackle soda was already sold out. The codes are special because there are collectors who collect event exclusive event pokemons. This pikachu has OT p-cafe and moves usually unable to learn within game. Local event pokemon are rare and sought after as they are exclusive only to the event attendees. Its like those sg gengar codes some back, many overseas were desperately asking for trades. The thirst is real lol. 

 

Btw they were out of codes today i heard, people had to leave their contact details behind as the organisers try to obtain more for distribution.

I used to battle but now I'm lazy to start breeding and shit haha

I might have extras if you need something. I always breed a lot for shinies so theres always few with perfect IVs and appropriate nature/ability. 

 

As for the pokemon cafe, maybe instead of queues it should be something like this... hahah
