I don't have any problems with the starters as such, but I am deeply disappointed that we are stuck with the grass/fire/water triad for the sixth time in a row. Sure, it's a solid triangle and the formula seems to work, but I'm just really tired of it by now. There are several other triangles that could be used, or beyond that, the triangulation could be dispensed with altogether. Ah well. I'm really glad that Fennekin appears to break the awful fire/fighting mold that the previous three fire starters were stuck with, and that Pokemon has gone fully 3D at last.
