THE FUSE

Since Game Freak revealed Pokémon Winds and Waves’ starters, one of the funnier discussions surrounding the RPGs is the speculation from fans as to whether or not Pombon, the Pomeranian fire puppy, is going to evolve into a bipedal Weregarurumon-looking guy by the time it reaches its final form. These discussions are born from years of starter Pokémon debuting as cute little guys and evolving into something that looks like furry bait. As soon as everyone saw Pombon’s dopey little face, the memes started and did not stop.
