It's objectively retarded since you won't be seeing gangs of fully evolved starters in the game anyway.

Not sure why one would only apply this to starters. Some Pokémon feeling more like characters than species has been the case since Gen I. Not just obvious examples like Cubone but things likeHitmonchan are also very rarely shown in the wild and with more than one present at a time.

If I didn't know better, I'd say you live in one those shitholes that eat cats. But I do so I KNOW there's cats in your shithole favela right this minute. If you went outside, you'd be able to see them.

>>59001835
That's never been true though, from day one in lore, starters were bred and raised in hidden nurseries and handed out only to specific trainers in specific circumstances. And by very NATURE of being a starter, they CANNOT be "regular monsters", because the whole point of them is to be the introduction to the series for children and most important set of creatures they'll meet (which is why decidueye got re-tooled so quickly after failing so hard with them). The world has changed form you first picked up pogeymans and the tropes that you ADORED as a little spastci shitwipe are disregarded utterly by the modern generation of kids. they don't make starters like "regular monsters" any more, because there's 1025 + 3+ fuckers all told now and more than enough ignored quadrupeds to waste starters on the trope any longer.
>>
>>59001876
>seething retard
>seethes ever fucking harder
Problem is I CAN imagine a clowder of Meow. Shit, with how pernicious they can be, I wouldn't be surprised if there were colonies of them teaching their Sprigs to be cute to help distract the humans with a magic act, so the Floragato can whip food with their yo-yo's. Sounds like you missed mine, get out the house, stop being a shut-in and look at the same inspiration Game Freak took for their series and you might have a hope of following what they're doing.
Or you can sit inside and shit yourself in autistric anger people like a grass starter that isn't a retarded frog from an era most of them didn't even exist for, your choice.
>>
>>59001646
Both of these don't quite do it. chestnaught wouldn't have the wheezing tail, and would be more chestnut-like (More spikes, maybe a leaf or stem)
Meganium isn't enough - it would have to have a crown or a scepter or something to show that it's a jobmon.
>>
>>59001898
Weren't they random pokemon the professor had laying around? He tasks you with completing the pokedex for him and can't be assed to catalog the ones in the grass outside his lab but is randomly handing out special hidden pokemon to neighborhood kids
>>
>>59001481
ah yes because all wild animals operate in herds / packs
>>
>>59001930
They don't but they look like they could
>>
>>59001940
Do you think you could see a pack of Eagles together?
>>
>>59001481
Kinda but also no, many animals have a solitary life
And Meowscarada is easy to imagine protecting a litter of Sprigatito born from the love between me and her (male), before the fuck off who knows where when they become Floragato
>>
>>59001646
I would fuck that Meganium ngl.

>>59001971
Gengar I can see it as a bunch of them living in a graveyard but a pack of Hypno, Sawk or Incineroar feel stupid.
Jynx is the same but at least this one got showcased in the anime as a pokemon that live in group so it feel more possible
>>
>>59001515
In nature, cats tend to not hang out together in large groups. Lions do it, but its mostly females plus 1 male or 2-3 brothers. A big ole group of male lions is unheard of though.
>>
>>59001948
Yes, because I have.
>>
>>59002018
That doesn't mean they look ridiculous if you put them together
>>
>>59001504
Venusaur is a toad.
What you posted is for Meganium, Tropius, and Aurorus.
>>
This is a retarded classification method because Pokemon are monsters. They're not all animals. "A flock of Cofagrigus" makes zero fucking sense, but a haunted sarcophagus is a perfectly acceptable monster to encounter in a tomb.
>>
>>59001505
While I agree with most the assertions;
I could definitely see Infernape passing, like I'd imagine them as a troop swinging through a snowy forest with maybe some Monferno among them and any Chimchar's would be holding onto the Infernape's like a baby chimp irl. I could see them predating on like Piloswine and Snover, shooting Flamethrowers to both weaken the prey and force it to travel in a specific direction.

I can imagine a group of Greninjas just chilling around a pond, but if an opposing frog Pokemon like Seismitoad rocked up they'd gang up on it and attack its flanks until its driven off hurling Water Shurikens and striking it when its distracted with stuff like Feint Attack. It's more so the defensive cooperation rather than working together to find food as I'd imagine Greninja's could hunt down insects on their own.

I don't disagree with the assertion that Incineroar wouldn't pass although to be fair Tigers are solitary creatures in nature which kinda defeats OP's argument. I could definitely see Incineroar's being territorial but the main thing that breaks them for me is I can't imagine Incineroar caring for Littens and Torracats the way a tigress does.

Rillaboom I pretty see the same as Infernape, they'd definitely live in a troop with the smaller Thwackeys and Grookeys. Admittedly I wish Rillaboom had gender differences as I'd imagine the equivalent of the silverback of the group would play a much larger root drums. That's the main thing though is that I can see Rillabooms basically just chilling out in the jungle creating a cacophony of noise for social cohesion (think like how monkeys groom one another).

As another anon pointed out, I think Skeledirge would pass, just bunch of them chilling out at the water's edge, under mangroves and sunbaking. Admittedly I wouldn't imagine a Skeledirge doing a death roll to another member, but more so that they'd sort of vocalize their rivalry and slam against one another like elephant seals do.

Just imagine the pokemon breeding with a Venusaur
If it seems weird or creepy, then it's bad starter evo design

A flock of Meowscarada makes no sense, but a magician cat is a perfectly acceptable monster to bridal carry to your bedroom.
>>
>>59001481
You morons, this makes no sense whatsoever. People are a social species. Seeing a bunch of people living together is 100% natural. Why would it be different for humanoid Pokemon?
>>
>>59001481
Not all animals are pack animals. You've never seen a pack of tigers, either.
>>
>>59001505
This is just stupid. You have an easier time imagining a herd of Mr. Mime's than a flock of Flamigos? Grow up.

>>59001481
No. Venusaur is one of the ugliest final starter evos ever made, and one of the worst pokemon in gen 1.

No because some animals are solitary

Retarded rule. The starters are so rare that they don't even appear in the wild. Why would there be a whole pack of them anywhere? Of course the pictures are from the anime where they pretend there's just whole packs of Venusaurs anywhere.

That's just a gameplay abstraction, and you've been able to find them in the wild in some of the more recent games.
It's like believing there is only ever 1 of each legendary just because you only catch 1 per game.

You are cringe, weak and pathetic

>>59002145
All of them (except for Incineroar) also happen to be the best-looking final starter evo of their generation so you're 100% correct
>>
>>59001505
All of Infernape, Decidueye, Rillaboom and Skeledirge pass, since they're heavily monkey/owl/gorilla/crocodile-like.
>>
>>59001507
Because starters are more important and representative.

despite getting regional form and regional evolution, mr mime is just a meme that slaves its life away in ash's house
now, the franchise is all about turning animal looking monsters into humanoid characters that interact with the actual human characters like it's some kind of a gachaslop visual novel
