So in each starter set, Kanto to Unova, what is your least favourite in that set? Here are mine:
Kanto: Charmander line. Game only they are all equal in my eyes, the Squirtle line maybe taking 1st. However, this may sound cliché, but the way some (only a minority) fans harp on about Charizard, just gets to me. I did a Diamond playthrough with all three Kanto starters and you know who did the best? Venusaur (named Maryjuana), followed by Blastoise. Charizard was actually somewhat underwhelming.
Johto: Totodile line. Again a fairly close one. However I like Chikorita the most and Cyndaquil just edges out so sorry my little Croc.
Hoenn: Mudkip line. I no liekz mudkipz? Yeah, some of the starter designs irk me in this gen. Sceptile is awkward, Combusken is ugly as sin and I don't like the Marshtomp's or Swampert's cheek things. So it came down to (in game) performance. Swampert felt the most awkward.
Sinnoh: Chimchar line. God I hate Chimchar. It has a poop on its head for Pete's sake. Monferno looks fairly cool, but Infernape just returns to the ugly with its stupid armour stuff.
Unova: Tepig line. Another Fire-Fighting, awkward design, unappealing stats. The Tepig line pale in comparison to both Oshawott and Snivy.
Funny. I never disliked the Grass types.
I majorly disagree with people that hate the fourth generation strarter Chimchar line. Infernape is able to make it into the OU, as well as being able to pown both Empoleon and Torterra in a battle. (Close Combat on Empoleon and Overheat on Torterra).
My least favorite starter for all generations are water starters. Water is one of the weakest types, no matter how many advantages you give it. Fire is my favorite. I agree, Fire and Fighting gets a bit annoying, but it has many advantages. And grass is just...... meh.....
