D/P Starter Information

First off is the pretty much confirmed stuff is that we have three new Pokémon names from some official merchandise being released in Japan later this year. These names are Naetoru, Hikozaru & Bocchama. Now these names are speculated to be for the starters with Naetoru meaning Sprout Beetle and Hikozaru meaning Fire Child Ape. However this association is yet to be confirmed. If it is confirmed it puts to question the previously revealed information from the official site regarding the starter triangle.

However, in a Japanese Blog, a person claimed to get an Exclusive Tour of Nintendo HQ and saw the three starting Pokémon. He states that the starters follow the previous type triangle and claims that the Fire Type had the name Hikozaru. He described the Grass Starter as having a body similar to Chikorita and a face like Trapinch. The Fire Type he also confirmed to be a Fire Ape similar to how the name obtained on official merchandise states. Finally he states that the water type seems to be similar to a Penguin in appearance.

However since this information has come from a Blog, chances are it's fake...but if not and if the writer is sincere, this could be the first information we have for the starters. Chances are we will not know for sure until next week at the earliest, maybe mid-September. Remember, the above information is NOT 100% confirmed so take it with a grain of salt. Thanks to Coronis for the translations. Rest assured, we will keep you aprised on these as soon as possible.
