              Where’s Hisuian Piplup in the promo art?

              Shilling the base form is still shilling.

        wtf is a "legends arceus"

        >Meganium's treatment alone should prove that
        Game Freak really needs to be called out on this shit. Who gives a fricking shit if Meganium doesn't have a design that's "le badass" and doesn't appeal to alpha male wannabe morons like Andrew Tate, a starter Pokemon shouldn't be useless. Also the whole "first partner Pokemon" shit TPC is pushing implies that ALL starter Pokemon are equally valid, so hopefully those fricks realize that.

        excuse me sister but meganium got his time in gsc as being barely better than venusaur in comp

          Meganium has always been inferior to Venusaur, being pure grass and having a shallower movepool makes it straight inferior

    They are probably the most praised group of starters outside of Gen 1.
    They are objectively the best usable group of starters for it’s debut gen.

    I liked them, but this Gen is definitely the one that started the shit trend of themed starter evolutions.

    >Are they gamefreak's most hated starters?
    no that's objectively Johto's. Meganium's treatment alone should prove that but even the other two get fricking squat compared to every every other starter. Johto's were the only ones were specifically set up to fail and sabotaged so that Kanto's would look better. They get the least shilling, spotlight, and buffs out of any starter by a large margin. The only reason Gatr isn't rotting in FU teir is because its impossible to be a water type with a starter BST and be a shitmon, and even then outside of of getting Sheer Force it gots next to nothing from TPC (though it did recent be used for a fanart contest so maybe the person at TPC who hated Gatr specifically left or something).. Meanwhile Typhlosion was practically blacklisted from the franchise until PLA and considering how disproportionally popular Typhlosion is compared to the lack of shilling (it legit might have the highest popularity to shilling ratio of any Pokemon consider that it even has fans despite never being used appearing in nothing for almost 20 years). so Game Freak had to give it some sliver of attention and even then rather than give it a super saiyan form it just a regional.
    >Why did they get cucked in their own region?
    Because they'll get something broken shill mechanic in Gen x (though the CHARIZARD tax means CHARIZARD will get a more broken version of it)
    >Same for lucario, rotom, garchomp etc
    moron, those are among the most shilled Pokemon in the fricking franchise. You can;t go three sedconds without seeing those frickers shoved in our faces. They may as well be GenWun Pokemon with how much Game Freak/ TPC wienersucks them.

      That isn't true for the anime. Gatr hasn't made an appearance for a very long time. He was also the only Johto starter to not appear at all in Journeys. Even Meganium appeared, although it was only to lose to Ash's Pikachu in a battle.

      Greninja is one of the biggest shillmons in the franchise and Delphox line is shows up in spin offs.

      I’d dare say it’s Gen 5

      Gen5 started were allowed to be a game without KANTOOOOOOOO Pokémon hogging the spotlight and even got a VGC season to themselves.
