Since I don't have much to say regarding the Legends other then I think it'll be a Ground/Flying war or something, Imma just post my thoughts on the starters, if you don't mind.

Take a look at this:

From left to right, the Pokemon using the moves are Chespin, Froakie, and Fennekin. Let's take a look at Chespin first.

By the color scheme of this move, it appears to be a Dark move. However, if you noticed, it also looks similar to Aerial Ace, as seen on the following:

Although Aerial Ace is a move commonly used by many types, it DOES have a significant hint toward a Grass/Flying. Again, it may be some sort of Dark move. If anyone can find a Dark move similar to that, do tell.

Next, let us take a look at Froakie. Whatever move it's using is clearly a physical move. There aren't many flashy effects, so it could possibly be a fighting move. It has blue sparks popping out from the impact and motion-lines. It looks similar to Circle Throw and/or Counter, as you can see here, respectively:

It could be electric, since it's rather speedy-looking.

Lastly, Fennekin. It's using a move coming from it's mouth, and the magenta/purple as well as it's swirling pattern makes it look psychic. Very similar to Psywave, may I add... It's rather self-explanatory.

Just my two cents. (Or two Poké.) IT'd be extremely interesting if they were secondary Dark/Fighting/Psychic, as it would add an odd match up.
A Grass/Dark VS a Fire/Psychic VS a Water/Fighting? What do ya'll think?
