I will say Brionne was my lowest ranked out of all the starter lines by a decently significant margin.


I think the closest comparison to Popplio/Brionne/Primarina would be the entire Chikorita starter line. Popplio is at least gender neutral, but Brionne/Primarina are feminine looking. The entire Chikorita starter line looks feminine, so that's one thing they have in common with Brionne/Primarina. However, it was much easier to ignore Chikorita since it was Grass type and it came after Gen I where the starter battle was mainly Charmander vs. Squirtle, so a lot of people developed a preference for choosing Fire or Water starters in later generations.

Chikorita and its evolutions also sucked in-game. Playing through GSC would have been quite rough with Chikorita, since the entire starter line has poor offensive stats. This is not even an issue with Popplio and its evolutions, and Primarina can absolutely wreck shit in-game (and Water/Fairy is much better than Grass).
