Chikorita is a cute, but which of its evo lines is better, Bayleef or Meganium?
>Be honest
>Feel free to use facts to back up your point
Clearly Tropius is.
>>25044610
They are all shit I would rather pick "literally a yellow human " over those pieces of shit.
What criteria? Bayleef is obviously cuter but meganium has the best stats of all of them.
>>25044633
Literally a yellow human
>>25044636
>What criteria
Any and every criteria you can think of.
>>25044610
I always thought Bayleef was overrated. The "leaf necklace" doesn't look great, and it's the ugliest color of the three. Meganium is a cool dinosaur with a flower around its neck, and that's fine by me.
>>25044633
Typhlosion had the worst design of the three fully evolved starters, which is a shame because of the three starters Cyndaquil was the best looking.
>>25044610
But OP, Bayleef has a better design than Meganium (Thanks Nicobay for making shit art of it)
>>25044610
All are cute, but Meganium has the best stats.
>Absolute favorite starter
>>25044610
I don't understand how a lot of people say they like Chikorita and Bayleef but hate Meganium
Is the flower too girly for you people?
>>25044816
Maybe is because Meganium loses her forehead leaf and the flower alone makes her to look like a dinosaur with a flower on its neck. (Replacing the leaf with an antennae was a bad decision)
>>25044767
Also the best ASS!
>>25044610
Bayleef by a mile.
>>25044610
Do you guys think Ash has ever thought about fugging his Bayleef?
>>25044610
I played a Dual Screen Evolite Bayleef in NU. It was not bad.
>>25044610
*evo stages
Chikorita only has one evo line.
>>25044610
chikorita = chick + señorita?
>>25045484
It's chicory + señorita
Maganium
>>25044610
Meganium is literally a discount Venusaur. Worst Grass starter by far. In fact, all of Johto's starters paled in comparison to others.
>>25044610
going for the classic chikorita
just cute

Drop dead.
>>25046392
'The fuck?
>>25046776
Literally a generic alligator with a coat of blue. Even Samurott has a better design.
>>25044610
I really tried using Chikorita line, I really did it's probably my most under leveled starter, as I liked everyone else on my teams and they were usable.... Terrible stats and Movepool, wants to be a wall, but doesn't have sleep powder or leech seed or good stab moves outside of razor leaf in gen 2
>>25046783
Samurott does not have a better design. With absolutely no hyperbole Samurott is THE worst designed pokemon of all 721 including formes.
>>25046783
>Even Samurott has a better design
That alone tells me that you're a complete idiot but also you failed to notice that they were talking about strength in battle.
>>25046795
>>25046802
Face it. This blue crocodile shitmon is only notable due to nostalgia. If it was introduced any later than Gen 4, it would be absolutely forgettable.
>>25046795
>Emboar
Found one
>>25046783
>alligator with a coat of blue
What more do you want? It's a fucking ALLIGATOR. And it's BLUE!
>generic
Show me another biped alligator with spikes on its back.
>>25046817
Are you literally retarded?
>>25046828
>What more do you want?
A design that isn't lazy for one
>spikes
>Ugh we can't come up with a way to make this Pokémon appealing. Let's just tack spikes on it to make it look more edgy and menacing! That definitely requires a lot of effort!
>>25046836
>Show me another biped alligator with spikes on its back
ok
>>25046838
So Feraligatr is lazy because it has spikes when your dear Samurott not only has spikes but has nothing indicating it's a biped swordmaster except for flavor text?
>>25046843
Point taken though to be fair Gen V makes an awful lot of "callbacks" to earlier designs.
>>25046776
Feraligatr has got to be one of the most overrated piece of shit Pokémon ever. What can people possibly see in this thing?
>>25046892
If people are allowed to like Greninja there shouldn't be a problem with Feraligatr.
>>25046783
>implying Alligators aren't already radical
>>25046838
A good "lazy" design design beats a bad overdesigned piece of shit any day.
Bayleef is cute, while Meganium feels like it's past its prime.
>>25046783
>samurrott being better than anything
Fuck you. Don't diss my gator.

Totodile is my favorite starter line, but what's so shit about samuwott?
>not liking a samurai sea lion with giant ass swords
>>25047073
I'm not who you're arguing with, but the shift from Dewott to Samurott is pretty extreme. It abandons its thin bipedal dual wielding warrior appearance and becomes a slow looking, heavy quadripedal animal that could probably be Torterra's lost cousin.
>>25047073
>>not liking a samurai sea lion with giant ass swords
That's actually my problem; why isn't it standing on two legs and holding swords like a badass?
Doesn't even look like it can with its body being based on something that can only move effectively by swimming.
>>25047091
It's still capable of moving around bipedally, just because it's official art shows it on all fours doesn't mean it can't be bipedal.
>>25047134
see
>>25047135
It sounds like you guys are just mad at the in game sprites and the art, not the design itself.
>>25047141
Except the 'design itself' looks awful standing up and it doesn't look like its meant to do that.
Putting an obviously quadruped design on two legs doesn't magically fix it.
>>25047135
It really wouldn't be possible. You can try to force it to, but it'd be incredibly unsteady and stumbling around constantly.
>>25044695
>Typhlosion had the worst design of the three fully evolved starters
This
>>25047149
Not even quadruped, it looks like a sea lion/seal/manatee that had its fins clumsily turned into "legs". It's bizarre.
>>25047156
>It really wouldn't be possible.
And Gothitelle's legs are long and totally not stubby.Y'all know what I'm talkin' bout.
>>25047180
The ashnime? Specifically the BW season which is infamously known as one of the worst if not THE worst?
>>25047156
>>25047149
there's a whole episode of the anime where it's standing up and it looks fine.
>>25047191
>>25047195
Exactly. The same series that had shown Gothitelle with stubby legs had also shown Samurott standing on two legs just fine and using the things on its forelegs as weapons.
>>25047203
Made me curious and watched it.
This is terrible. How does this look fine to you? Also she mostly -landed- on her legs (and only for a split second) instead of battling standing up.
>>25044755
He didn't make it, only commisioned it.
