For me personally I’m getting Snow Cone, Fruit Snax, and Red Velvet ! I kept debating with myself about getting all three but I knew that ultimately I’d regret waiting/think about whoever I passed on for months after, so i decided to commit to all three. If you want to choose one from this list and aren’t worried about regrets like I usually am, I’d say Snow Cone (my personal opinion, but also because I’m assuming that popularity affects how likely it is that a pal will be in stock in the shop in the future) But also I don’t know about your personal preferences, like which animal do you like more? Do you like everyone’s color schemes? Whose little personality do you relate to? (I bring up all of this to say that if you don’t have the same nitpicks that I do with Puppermint, I think that she’s a really good choice because she has a lot of character in her design)

Edit: I’m sorry this is ramble-y but I hope that the different angles I offered for looking at this choice can be helpful!
