I was so-so on Popplio when you was first revealed. The main reason I didn't want to like it too much at first was out of a fear of it evolving into some goofy clown-themed Pokemon. When that chinese leak came out and later became essentially confirmed, my hype went full 100%. I was just hoping for some real confirmation from TPC to show that Siren would be the real deal - and it would cement Popplio's line being my favourite starter all-time. Ohhh it makes me SO HAPPY <3
