Outside of Charizard and Greninja who would you say is the favored starter by game freak for each generation?
>>56105114>Gen 2Game Freak despises them all but they forgot to complete gimp Feraligatr so I guess that>Gen 3 Blaziken>Gen 4Infernape but all are fairly close >Gen 5 Serperior but not by much, Unova is Game Freak's second most hated starters>Gen 7 Incineroar>Gen 8 Cinderace>Gen 9 can''t tell

>>56105114>2probably Cyndaquil but they’re all treated about the same, Gen 2’s starters rarely get shilled in general>3Blaziken>4Piplup, they don’t give a fuck about any of the last stages>5All terrible, they don’t give a fuck about any of these>7Incineroar>8Cinderace>9Meowscarada

People who don't pick Oshawott for Gen 5 are fucking retarded.
>>56105114Something like this I guess
Looking at it know I didn't realize just how much they favored the fire starters. Maybe I'm overthinking but I feel like they're might be some correlation between that and fire types normally being really limited.
>>56105473Fire starters were the designated cool type in the classic series (i.e. first 4 gens)
>>56105502Nothing classic about 4 but otherwise, yeah.
>>56105437If Samurott was liked by GameFreak it wouldn't have gotten a regional form designed to replace it.
>>56105114>JOHTOTyphlosion, the only one that got a new form and when G/S were new everyone picked Cyndaquil.>HOENNBlaziken because it is the first one that got a Mega, it was one of the first gen 3 Pokemon to be shown before the release of RS and Masuda love Torchic.>SINNOHPiplup is extremely popular in Japan.>UNOVAOshawott, similar energy as Piplup and Samurott got a new form.>ALOLAIncineroar, the fact that it got added into Smash is enough to consider it the most popular gen 7 starter.>GALARCinderace, it is Incineroar 2.>PALDEAMeowscarada
>>56105517So, what does that say about Typhlosion?
>>56105437They do love their Mijumaru
>>56105517So, in other words, Oshawott got a new evo?
>>56105517I agree Game Freak doesn't care about Samurott but they love Oshawott. Same with Piplup and Empoleon
>>56105541That Game Freak hates it, it’s a well known fact that Game Freak didn’t want it to be popular. they literally made it wingless CHARIZARD, banned it from the anime for some reason, gave it nothing for 20 years. If typhlosion (or any Johto starter) has any fans it’s a fluke,
