Why did everyone consensually agree that Tepig is the canon starter of Hilda? When did that happen? And what's the canon starter of all the other protags?
>>
>>59209771
There is no canon starter. Just headcanon.
>>
>>59209771
Corkscrew penis
>>
>>59209771
That one doujin.
>>
>>59209771
It just makes more sense for the tomboyish "American" girl to have the fighter pig than the fancy snake or the samurai
>>
>>59209771
some protags get a certain starter strongly associated with them via the anime or some other source like May with Torchic. people try to make them all match up the same way with their headcanons. usually the pokemon company just creates associations themselves. Rosa and Snivy is their own doing.

16 years ago, the internet was populated solely by people who'd bought PC's and had hardline internet connections. And they decided it would be funny to pair the girl with a pig, due to the amount of bestiality porn that was accessible in the earlynet, including a slew of "pig fucks farmgirl" type vids. Faithful Tepig was the nail in the coffin, after that the internet accepted hilda was a pigfucker.
>>
>>59209771
You know why.
A fanfic manga where Tepig is her Faithful companion.

I think only in the manga she had a Snivy as a starter but still they also gave her a Tepig there too
>>
>>59209771
Hilda - Tepig
Cheren - Oshawott
Bianca - Snivy

They're all color coded.
>>
>>59209817
Actually she had a female tepig but N stole it
>>
>>59209771
Its not considering pretty much all media agrees that its the canon starter emboar for hilbert this is just a meme pushed by masters that does retarded pairings like kris/feraligatr, dawn/torterra, barry/empoleon, elio/primarina and much more.
>>
>>59209882
Kris/Feraligatr was established by the anime long before Masters.

Because Oshawott goes Hilbert's jacket and Smugleaf was too smug

You just reminded me that Hilda's little twin hair tuffs are like Tepig's ears.

bros... help me... my Tepig is starving... the Pokedex told me that it roasts berries before it eats them.... but I can't find any...

Its funny because no real womans actually like the tepig line, only gay barafags

you can find out the canon starters by looking at their kotobukiya figure

>incomplete figure line that also has two versions of May and Dawn with different starters because they don't want to repeat Pokemon besides Pikachu who has Mascot Privileges
Uh-huh

>>59209771
Tepig is the most Faithful starter.

>>59209873
This
Bianca Tepig and Cheren Snivy isn't the worst, but it's obvious the way they're supposed to go

There is, though. It's just kept to GameFreak's internal prime timeline bible, which they use as the foundation of all Pokemon games they write, because in the mainline games they don't want to hurt the player-specific experience by bringing up a character or decision from a prior game that the player might not have made when they were playing as that particular role in the past.
Pokopia, a spinoff written by GameFreak, revealed snippets of this bible to us on an official level beyond "Kanto's second champion when mentioned or appearing as an NPC is ALWAYS Red" by mentioning that Gold/Ethan was the champion from New Bark Town, so Red isn't just a special exception case.
>>
>>59209882
Chimchar is the canon starter for the Sinnoh protagonist, so Dawn and Barry's canon starters have to be Torterra and Empoleon respectively.
>>
>>59209798
>Brown boy got the monkey
What's Gamefreak is thinking
>>
>>59209771
>And what's the canon starter of all the other protags?
Red bulbasaur retconed to shillzard
Leaf bulbasaur because leaf (kek)
Ethan typhlision (gold and jimmy both have one)
Kris feraligator (marina)
Lyra meganium (the one left)
Brendan Swanpert (ruby/ashnime cameos)
May Braziken (saphire ashnime)
Lucas torterra i guess
Dawn empoleon (ashnime/platinum)
Hilbert Sammutot
Hilda Emboar
Nate emboar
Rosa serperior
Calem greninja
Serena delphox
Elio inceroar
Selene primarina
Victor cinderance
Gloria inteleon
Florian Skerledige
Juliana Mewscarada

>toys that aren't reflected in canon
Red is the only canon protagonist and will forever be the only canon protagonist. Also, Sugimori always drew Ethan with Totodile and not Cyndaquil, making the toyline = canon cope even more obsolete.
>>
>>59212036
>Red is the only canon protagonist and will forever be the only canon protagonist.
Untrue. Pokopia canonized Gold as the champion from New Bark Town, from the New Bark Bulletin (February) human record you can find on Dream Islands.
>>
>>59212042
>spin-off game that's not a mainline
As I said, Red is the only one that matters.

Written by GameFreak, and made by them in every regard except gameplay. See you when Stereo Rotom and Yellow Shellos make their mainline debuts in Winds & Waves!
