    What Pokemon do you think that the Writers Liked and Disliked?

    ...You know, that's actually an interesting point about the birds: the ones that were treated well were always during eras when Ash didn't catch all that region's Starters, while the ones that had to compete with the entire trio were the ones who fared poorly. I think Staraptor is especially...
  2. Ghost Diplocaulus

    What Pokemon do you think that the Writers Liked and Disliked?

    Weirder still is the fact that the Electric Gym comes right after the Bug Gym in Unova, and Pikachu was obviously gonna be the star player of that one, since literally the only times the starring role was given to another Pokemon in an Electric Gym was in Sinnoh and Kalos, and even then Pikachu...
  3. Ghost Diplocaulus

    What Pokemon do you think that the Writers Liked and Disliked?

    I still feel like they regressed quite a bit with Unfezant, though. I dunno, kinda hard to see her as well treated as Swellow, Staraptor, Talonflame, or even Noctowl when she literally only got to perform well in one battle while in every single other time that didn't involve Team Rocket or...
  4. Ghost Diplocaulus

    What Pokemon do you think that the Writers Liked and Disliked?

    By this same argument Pikachu, Meowth, Wobbuffet, the Starters, or any of the miscellaneous mascots (Riolu/Lucario, Eevee line, etc.) can't count as being "loved" either, since the writers have an obligation to give them spotlight due to marketing or protagonist privileges rather than any...

    What Pokemon do you think that the Writers Liked and Disliked?

    Okay, this is probably going to be an extremely unpopular opinion, but... I actually don't have a problem with the idea (emphasis on "idea", let me make that clear) of a Rowlet defeating a Decidueye, and in fact I think that out of all the Starter Pokemon that we have so far, Rowlet is literally...

    What Pokemon do you think that the Writers Liked and Disliked?

    Of that list I think Torterra is the only one that we can actually decisively say was outright made worse than its own pre-evolution. Ash's Noibat literally never battled while in that stage (the closest he ever got to battling as a Noibat was dealing some minor chip damage to a Flare Admin's...
  7. Ghost Diplocaulus

    What Pokemon do you think that the Writers Liked and Disliked?

    Misty's Starmie in-game is also notable for being the first "difficult" boss fight in the Kanto games due to having an absurdly high BST for that point in the game, meaning even Bulbasaur players will take a while to KO it, so the fact that it was turned into arguably Misty's weakest Pokemon...
  8. Ghost Diplocaulus

    What Pokemon do you think that the Writers Liked and Disliked?

    I'd argue that the writers had something against literally every Regional Bird that Ash owned that wasn't Swellow, Staraptor, or Talonflame. Pidgeotto/Pidgeot is especially notable because it technically was a mainstay in Ash's party throughout Kanto, yet for some reason it never did anything...
