I feel middle starters are underrated. Everyone loves the base starters for being cute and the final evolutions for being cool, but the middle evolutions typically get glossed over despite spending the most time with you in game. They typically evolve around the 2nd gym and don't evolve again until around the climax of the story. The bulk of your adventure are spent with these guys. Rate them and critique other's tasteshttps://tiermaker.com/create/middle-stage-starter-evolutions-gen-1-9-15333979

>>56457059>don't evolve again until around the climax of the storyUsually my starter is fully evolved before the climax of the story.
Idc if it's a middle evo or whatever. Pokemon is Pokemon.
>>56457097>Ivy and Wartortle at the topBasedased
>>56457074Wartortle is ugly af
ivy next to braixen just because

>>56457059>despite spending the most time with you in game. They typically evolve around the 2nd gym and don't evolve again until around the climax of the story. The bulk of your adventure are spent with these guys.None of that is true, you spend most of the game with the final evolution. Middle starters are just poorly designed overall. They have too much compromise. They should just throw out the design guidelines and design unique middle stages like Pupitar or something. It's such a waste to make a design solely to bridge the gap between two superior designs.
>>56457059I like them, I refuse to ever evolve Dewott or Torracat
>>56457059This list is pretty perfect. Though I'd bump Quaxly 2 up to B just because it's a less goofy version of stage 3
>>56457059retarded furnigger award goes to you
>>56457097It IS that good and you literally like Braixen, fuck off. You are infinitely more generic than any Bayleef fans.
Feel like I was a little too generous, but I like most of them.
he has samefagged 3 times so far lmao
>>56457404I mean I kinda figured a topic about middle stage starters would bring the guy obsessed with a single stage starter over. I count 4 that could be him as Wartortle and Quilava are also consistently rated quite high, only one where they don't make the top 3
>>56457467Who, OP or Wartortleanon?
>>56457467yeah I guess I see the 4th one as well>>56457493don't play retarded
Most of these guys are good for what they are
>>56457059>don't evolve again until around the climax of the storyWut? They usually evolve around the fourth gym.
>>56457059>most time with you in the gameI can't think of a single game where I don't spend the most time with the final evo unless I box the middle for looking stupid(like the spic croc), in which case it becomes the first I spent the most time with
>>56457493>>56457097, >>56457329, >>56457302, and >>56457153
>>56457748>Ivy at top so it's one personTake your meds
>>56457774thanks for outing yourself.Welp, there we have it.
I want a starter that is anti-fairy type, that no one uses in the adventure, that no one uses in the competitive and a starter that no one likes.
>>56457819only one of them is mefeel free to be delusional though
crazy how this one particular pokemon almost always appears at the top in this thread yet when we look at the board in general for the past few years no one seems to give a shit about that particular pokemon apart one autist. It's like if a town has a poll for which footwear they love the most to wear during the day and the results show that 9 out of 10 people love wearing sandals, but when you look outside, no one is wearing sandals but that one weirdo that always does who everyone make fun of for wearing sandals and is known for being manipulative and deceitful. Surely something must be wrong with that poll.

>>564579961- real people post in this thread2- porn bots spamming coom threads are not real people (https://arch.b4k.co/vp/thread/56088259/#56088259)3- see dead internet theory
>>56458102thanks for continuing to prove all the suspicions right, dumbass
>ivycuck was samefagging and finally came out of hiding when called outjust like everyone suspected
>>56458228well this shows that this thread is worthless
>>56457404>>56457467they called it and were right
>>56457823doesn't exist
>>56457996why did ivytrans feel so attacked by this post? Enough to even come out of hiding and randomly post one of his troll threads about braixen
Insisting on pushing a fanfic doesn't change realityI only made one Tierlist. Deal with it
>>56458275it's easy to bait that mong. he has zero impulse control

>>56457059Monferno is my favorite
Middle starters generally suckActually middle stages generally suck (except in gen 9 which had some of the best in the series)
>>56459493>except in gen 9>puts the gen 9 middle stages in low tiers
>>56457059Floragato is the best middle stage starter, no contest.
>>56457823Delphox is your choice pal
good tastes ITT
>>56457059Now that I am looking at them all in one place, I can see why no one cares about them. That top tier is agonizingly uninteresting.
>>56460594>can see why no one cares about themJapan is currenly trending a hashtrag for mid-evos#見た人も好きな中間進化ポケモンをあげるWestern Pokemon fans are soulless and just care about shillmons + porn
>>56460597Not saying the west is better, but Japan has notoriously bad taste.
>>56460601true.
>>56460597Japanese fans don't really care about middle stages compared to the rest of their lines either, looking at their polls.
>>56460622I stopped caring about Pokemon polls after I realized it's always bullshit because porn addicts would vote shit like Lucario without ever playing a pokemon game.Check pokemon center sales rankings, it's totally different from pokemon polls
>>56460626Looking at the current center sales rankings, I see recency bias, shillmon... and Chandelure
>>56457059>>56457074this, among other absurditiesshit taste
Based only on design.
