Unironically are those two the strongest starters that are actually designed with the intention of them working? There's no way Incineroar's usagge is intentional

Picking Mudkip for Gen 3 spoiled me and now every water starter afterwards has been a huge disappointment because they aren't Water/Ground with STAB Surf and STAB earthquake whose only one weakness is countered by learning Ice Beam.

Competitively? They gave Cinderace Not!Protean pretty intentionally, he was just outdone by others like the Priority Gorilla
Obviously they weren't bothering to push starters in competitive because they're already pushed a dozen other ways since they're starters, but they definitely started trying at some point after Gen 5 since they can have abilities besides Blaze/Torrent/Overgrow

starter should be the first thing you catch by yourself
all pkmns should have 3 evos and be viable end game so that the aforementioned can work with any starter

It's neat in romhacks, but it doesn't do too well as a starting trio. Fists being effective against darkness isn't as intuitive as water putting out fire.

It’s amazing how they did Fire/Fighting not once, not twice but thrice in a row.

At least Blaziken and Infernape look cool

While Emboar looks like it could’ve been Fire/Ground at first glance.

Water Starters have not been good since Piplup into Empoleon I’d argue. Even their final evolutions end up looking like shit while being uncool such as Sobble and Quaxly. Even I struggle to remember their names because they simply aren’t memorable.

Is there anyone else that dislikes the mons in the latest game specifically? I see a bunch of people with a bunch of points in which the games turned bad, but to me there's been a decent chunk of Pokemon up until SW/SH I liked, but in S/V there's like 5 mons in the whole Dex I don't dislike.
>>
>>737865292
SV dex was the first that was not primarily spearheaded by Ken Sugimori or James Turner and it shows.
WW looks promising so far, Pombon and Gecqua are both pretty good designs that scale back on the humanization factor.

>>737865363
Pombon is too cute for my tastes. I normally like cute mons, but there's nothing to pombon beyond being designed to be as cute as possible.
Gecqua's okay. Better than sobble at least .
Hate the angry bird though. Fuck that thing and everyone who likes it.
>>
Niggersby
>>
Why does it always have to be fire/water/grass for starters? Can they make one (1) Pokemon game where the starters are different types or would that alienate the cattle?
>>
>>737865607
I just like that Pombon is not overdesigned, just a cute fluffy dog, very gen 1-3 none of the pointless bells and whistles like Scorbunny or Fuecoco.
The angry bird does look like ass, Torchic, Piplup and even Rowlett look like a cohesive trio, this new bird just looks weird next to them.
>>
>>737865736
I don't know if this will make sense, but it's simplistic in a Gen6+ way, not a Gen 5- way.

And to be clear, I don't dislike pombon it's just okay.

We all love Sceptile but he's the only one that's monotype, Swampert is basically untouchable since there are no major grass types to fight in the 3rd gen and electric doesn't touch him, meanwhile, there are two gym leaders he can't even be used against

I wish they'd let you start with a ghost or bug type though.
Nincada or ghastly would be cool starters.

Torterra is fantastic

blaziken is probably the best final evolution to choose there

I like Empoleon and Primarina, but yeah, water starters peaked with Swampert, I really hope Gecqua is good because otherwise I'm just gonna go with Pombon.

>favorites as a kid were always grass

not sure what changed. either way it's a tie between squirtle for being the actual best, treeko for nostalgia or froakie just because I think he's neat (and honestly gen 6 is the only game outside of gen 1 where I think they actually nailed all three designs)
