But that's not the point of the theory. The theory has never been "the first forms of the Fire-type starters fit the Chinese Zodiac", it's always been about the entire evolutionary line. People call them starters because they count the entire line as starters. (Which, as I said before, is not unique to this theory) Arguing about the technicality of them being "starters" just because you don't like that Incineroar and Charizard really do fit the zodiac theory is just debating terminology, it's not actually a counterargument. If you really want to try to get the whole fandom to stop calling evolved Pokemon starters, go ahead and try to push that, but considering you only bring up this argument when the zodiac theory gets brought up, it seems to me that you're just splitting hairs.I know that, but they are technically NOT starters, else you can class every Pokemon as a starter since you can play Randomizers or you box the Pokemon you choose and start your journey with the one you catch, but does that make them starters, nope, despite you are using them as your starter.
You start your journey with the first forms and thus you start with them. Not with the fully evolved forms.
