The launch of the new games does nothing for me since I stopped playing the popular handheld RGP back when Sliver and Gold were released in 2000. But, it has re-opened a nostalgic debate amongst older and past pokemon masters.
"Who is the BEST starting pokemon?"
This question has present on the Pokemon debate table since the launch of the original Pokemon games Red and Blue in 1998. Back in the day when only 150 Pocket Monsters exitsed solely in the Kanto region, the biggest decision made in the game was deciding your starting Pokemon. Three options were given:
Squirtle, Charmander, and Bulbasaur
The best starting Pokemon IS and forever Shall Be Charmander
Why?
Charmander is the starting Pokemon of true Pokemon masters because it forces you to train harder. The first two gyms in the game are Rock followed Water/Ice. Fire types, like Charmander, are weak in Attacking and Defense against both types. Therefore, in order to get by this point in the game, you have to train harder.
Those of you Squirtle and Bulbasaur lovers can brag all you want about how you destroyed Misty and Brock, how fast you got them to evolve, and how quick you defeated the elite four. So what. At level 36 I'll have a Charizard.
- A rare Fire/Dragon type
- Can learn both Fire Blast and Dragon Beam
- Dominates in both Attack and Special Attack
- As the ability to Fly
- Is the rarest Pokemon trading card available
- Is the most powerful form of Pokemon Trainer on SSBB
- Is a beast
