Your interest of Pokemon doesn't even extend out to Lucario? Or what about Delphox? They have a pretty cute dress.

I lost interest in the series a long while ago.

 I played Red when it first came out, tried to get back into it with Black on the 3DS, but it was just too different, and that killed my interest with the games.

I stopped watching the anime series and movies shortly after Mewtwo, and like the games, any attempt to even try to get back into it was thwarted by a completely different cast (yet still the same constant Looney-Toons-esque plot to capture Pikachu, which always annoyed the hell out of me). 

With no interest in the games or the show, I have absolutely no basis upon which to build an interest in any of the characters. I could draw Lucario, or I could draw a fox. Lopunny, or a rabbit. Cows, sheep, bulls, wolves, anything worth drawing has a real world counterpart that I could use as a subject just as well.

What it boils down to is that Pokemon was a part of my childhood / early teens. Asking me how I feel about the new characters is like asking someone born in the early 80′s how the feel about the new Ghostbusters.
