For the third of our speculation contests, we'd like for you all to guess what the types will be of the fully evolved forms of our 3 newly released starters.
At this stage, while we know we have a standard rotation of grass/water/fire for our starters again, their secondary types (if any) and the secondary types of their evolutions (again, if any), are unknown.
Assuming that there are no new types, then there are over 4900 possible combinations of types possible for the final evos. That should be more than enough to satisfy you all. While not strictly required for your guesses, we'd like it if you would all explain exactly how you arrived at your particular guesses as well. One "guess" for the purposes of this contest is 1 set of type combinations for each of the 3 Pokémon.
In the event of a tiebreak where we've only got people with 1/3 or 2/3 correct, then the first person to have gotten the highest number of correct guesses wins it.
Remember also, while you can discuss things and make as many guesses as you like, only your final guess counts. So if you're the 10th person to suggest the same thing, but the first 9 people changed their minds, and you didn't, then if that ended up being the right answer, you'd win.
To clarify that further, since so many people have been doing it...
You can not make multiple guesses in one post. If you're starting to say things like this OR this, YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG. If you're offering multiple possibilities for the same Pokémon in the same post, YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG.
I hope that's clear enough.
This thread will be closed in a weeks time for our 4th speculation contest. In the event that the information is leaked or announced before the end of that period, the thread will be closed immediately, and the closest guess before that will win. Otherwise, the winner will be decided when we actually find out what will be in the games.
