Chikorita, 100%. By far the most mediocre Starter family.

in Let's Go, the pikachu has higher base stats too. I think it's Attack/Sp Attack is in the 80s and its speed is like 120

Around the time I get all three, I don't even have my Pikachu anymore. Chikorita is 2nd worst and Chiko also has a terrible design.

What's so bad about Chikorita? You're the 4th person in this thread to say it sucks. I've been playing SacredGold recently and I picked Chikoria and I don't get what's so bad about it.

Chikorita is a shitty looking Pokemon, it doesn't look cool at all, the other grass starters actually look cool. It's also the weakest of the two others in gen 2.

Bad movepool, mediocre offensive stats (good luck being a defensive Pokemon while being a Grass-type), and unlike Snivy who at least has speed and its hidden Ability Contrary to make up for its similar shortcomings, Chikorita hidden Ability Leaf Guard is actually a liability.

Oh. Ok.
Literally the only starter you should keep on second form. At least the others are consistent.

Chikorita's the only starter I've ever overlooked completely when it comes to main game / meta game use.

Mediocre offensive stats, its offensive movepool beyond early Razor Leaf is barren, and it matches up super poorly with the game. The gyms are full of types that beat grass, Team Rocket uses primarily stuff that beats grass types, the elite 4 has a lot of stuff that beats grass types and I believe only a single Pokemon weak to it, almost the entire rival's team, etc.

I guess it's a good thing I'm not playing the vanilla version of HeartGold. SacredGold changes its ability to Natural Cure and it learns Nature Power, Earth Power, and Leaf Storm.

Litten. 100%.

I like Litten. I like its design and color scheme, and its first evolution is good too.

If it had kept all four paws on the ground, everything would have been fine.

But no.

No, it couldn't do that one simple thing.

Instead, it became Incineroar.

Ugh. Just... why?

Look on the bright side:

It could have very easily been our fourth Fire/Fighting Starter.

It is weird how Inceneroar just sort of comes out of nowhere.

Like at least Samurott carries on the samurai motif. Toracat to Incineroar is approaching Digimon levels of goofy. >_>

Think about who you're talking to.

Then think about what Incineroar is.

As ridiculous as Incineroar is as a concept, I must say that I did enjoy playing it more than I thought I would in Smash Ultimate.

Still would have preferred Decidueye, though.

The only design I didnt like in the Chespin line was Quilladin, which was pretty goofy looking. Chesnaught was okay though. I was more disappointed with Fennekins evolutions.
