Plot twist, plantboi is actually the best gen 1 starter.


That was bad and you should feel bad, you bad person.


While I am a mildly bad person on occasion, and I do feel bad also on occasion, My statement from a competitive standpoint was not bad :D

Unless youre poking fun at me saying plantboi, in which case that's fair.
Quick, think of some pithy cliche and toss it here

Razor leaf will actually always critical hit with Venusaur because of the way crit probabilities are calculated in gen 1. Probability is based on base speed, and Venusaur's base 80 is high enough that high crit moves like razor leaf has a crit chance of 1.

I have to agree, post-Gen II games become progressively weaker even though several welcome mechanics have been introduced and system tweaks made types like Bug viable during the later stages. The secondary plotlines slowly become more and more outrageous with each new game, reinventing the wheel in terms of species leads to more misses than hits (many concepts after Gen 4 are outlandishly ridiculous even for Pokemon archetypes), and some mechanics manage to be both superfluous and disruptive to the experience.

I wish modders would create a hybrid that incorporated the good stuff into the older games as part of an integrated experience e.g. how A Tale of Two Wastelands combines FO3 and New Vegas.

As mentioned above, they are worth a look. I think this is what you are looking for. I plan to eventually give it a try as well!

thank you for making me aware of this
