I never understood the supposed Blastoise/Charizard rivalry anyway. Is it just because they're on the boxes of red/blue?

They are the rivals' Pokémon, so by extension they are rivals.

Yeah, they never actually did anything resembling rivalry in the games. Dunno about the anime, but this is a contest for games anyways.

They fought each other at the beginning of the anime, too. But really, Red/Blue is the Pokemon rivalry, and I expect it to go far.

Pokemon Red / Pokemon Blue is a 1 seed, tho, so vicariously they're in. Even though I think the explicit Pokemon make for a stronger match-up -- hell, the ZARD by himself does -- they will give their strength to their trainers.

I can't believe Charizard/Blastoise didn't even make the vote-ins, while Red/Blue got a friggin' 1-seed! SMH.

Probably because that "rivalry" only has a 33.3% chance of actually happening. Do you see where I'm going with this? It's not even a legit rivalry. >_>

And you could choose to immediately box/abandon your starter Pokemon once you've caught something else anyway, so there's no guarantee it even happens in the game at all

Given how unimpressive Charmander was in-game in the original that may not be a bad move necessarily! I think I did ultimately drop him on the RBY playthrough I used him on, although I did keep him until the end in FRLG (where the much higher special attack and superior movepool such as 60-power Wing Attack make him... you know what, I'll just stop <.<). -- The RPG Duelling League: www.rpgdl.com An unparalleled source for RPG information and discussion ...

Am I not explaining it right? I know it's not a goddamn random choice. If you pick Charmander your rival uses a Blastoise. If you pick something else, your rival uses something a Charizard or Venusaur. The point is, Charizard/Blastoise is not a sure thing unlike say Squall/Seifer or Tidus/Jecht. These are legit rivalries because- zomg- they actually rival each other throughout the game and have a 100% chance of occuring instead of 33%. What other people pick has absolutely no bearing on what you, as the player picks. The game doesn't give a flying Rattata's ass if Charmander is more popular than Squirtle or whatever.

From: GenesisSaga | #025 and do you understand that it's still a rivalry because it occurred in the game! So what if there's not a 100% chance of it occuring...it happened a lot more than a bunch of other rivalries in the contest listen: r and b sold 8.6 million copies...so let's say that 33% of those people chose charizard, not even counting that people can reset their game and chose another or that he was the most popular starter or from the sales in japan or from fire red and leaf green..... so that's at least about 2.86~ million people that had that rivalry now compare that to a rivalry like the one in conker's bad fur day that didn't even sell a million copies my point is that it's a decent rivalry and many people experienced just as much as the other ones...why the f*** exactly do you have such a grudge against it...it's seems kind of odd that you would go to this much trouble to disagree with me... -- "Different tempo ha ha ha, dearly beloved we are all gathered here now..." - Mike Love ...

Lol, I refuse to believe someone that has enough technical knowledge to create a GFAQs account could actually be this dense, so I'm going to chalk this up to a troll attempt. Whatever. Your favorite "rivalry" isn't legit. I'm sorry you can't see that. Toodles!

I'll bite.
and do you understand that it's still a rivalry because it occurred in the game! So what if there's not a 100% chance of it occuring...it happened a lot more than a bunch of other rivalries in the contest There are 600+ Pokemon. Yes Charmander vs Squritle happened. So did Caterpie vs Weedle, Pidgey vs Spearow, Rattata vs Rattata, and a whole lot of other combinations. That doesn't make a rivalry. r and b sold 8.6 million copies...so let's say that 33% of those people chose charizard, not even counting that people can reset their game and chose another or that he was the most popular starter or from the sales in japan or from fire red and leaf green..... so that's at least about 2.86~ million people that had that rivalry That's Red vs Blue, not Charizard vs Blastoise. Not to mention not everyone fights their starter with another starter. Not to mention copies don't really come into play. my point is that it's a decent rivalry and many people experienced just as much as the other ones...why the f*** exactly do you have such a grudge against it...it's seems kind of odd that you would go to this much trouble to disagree with me... Because you're being rather foolish. Zangoose vs Serviper is the superior pokemon rival team because it is canon that they are rivals. Blastoise and Charizard are only "rivals" because two other people choose it to be. That's like me saying Wario's rival is Yoshi because I go after Wario all the time when I'm Yoshi in Mario Party games. Pokemon Trainer Red vs Pokemon Trainer Blue is the superior rival team because that's in canon. Chariazard vs Blastoise is not. Or at least, it's a far smaller rivalry. -- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] Nominate Mario/Sonic for the Greatest Game Rivalry contest! ... Copied to Clipboard!
