I just realized Scorbunny is a soccer/football bunny. That is amazing.

Soccer? I thought it looked more like a kickboxer given it has tape at the bottom of its feet

I mean, they use tape in football as well.

Here's a question for y'all.

Which starter do you think Ash will get in Galar?

[PichuAuraGuardian19]

Either just Grookey, or all three.

Yes, it does. I’ve seen pictures of footballers (and yes, I mean soccer or futbol) that wear them on the nose. I’ve played soccer, too, and I had teammates who had to wear it on the nose as well.

Just a rough sketch I was working on earlier, but it’s pretty clear which Galar starter I’m going with. Anyway, here’s Monty the Scorbunny. And if anyone can catch the reference, you’re incredible.

Thought I’d post this here as well.

So basically a Grass-type Chimchar?

Sounds legit.

I mean, I also Googled it and found professional soccer/football players with that tape on their noses.

Same here. Only found one. A neymar from like 2012 or 13

So looking closer at the map of the Galar region (I keep on almost typing Galah when typing that. XD) I come to the conclusion that it's not just based off of the UK. It's the UK but upside down.

Yeah, that’s what I heard. Plus, it looks like a Sword.
