More "back-stage" info: (it is recommended you take a look at the other two starters before reading this, as it could qualify as spoilers.)
We wanted to have an earth, sea, and sky theme with our starters. We also wanted to make the starters represent different classes of animals. We ended up with the grass starter being avians, the fire starter being mammals, and the water starter being both fish and reptiles. We are very satisfied with the result, as their types end up trumping each other perfectly:
Grass-Flying [Sky, Avians, Omnivores. (herbivore as young, carnivore as adult.)] Trumps Water-fighting [Ocean, Reptiles/fish, carnivores.] Trumps Fire-Rock [Earth, mammalians, herbivores.] Trumps (back to top)
Even the relationship between the genders in each species worked out interestingly. It's like a cycle: (compare the last thing mentioned in one description, to the first thing mentioned in the description of the pokemon below it.)
Mammal: same size, patriarchal Fish-Reptile: Male bigger, matriarchal Bird: female bigger, both are leader
Oh yeah, the typing triad makes sense. I found it quite tough to make a water/fighting that actually looks like a water/fighting, it's a hard design to get around.
Yeah thats true. the only real reason its got the gold colouring on the full evolved form is because the secondary colours on them are based off the olympic medals. bronze (third place and the basic form), Silver (second place and the first evolved form), and gold (first place and the final evolution)
