>>17700066It's not even about smogon, it's the undeniable fact that gen 3 is the only generation so far that has had all of it's starters be competitively viable.
Gen 4 was close but fucking Empoleon
Gen 1 was close but had Charizard
Gen 5 has nothing
Gen 6 was close but fucking Delphox
Gen 2 has nothing
I don't even like Hoenn you faggot, but when it comes to winning and playing competitively there's a hell of a lot of better reasons to go with Hoenn's starters than Johto.
And Gen 2's starters are nothing better, nor are Gen 5's. Unless you actually did some research I doubt you'd be able to tell what the fuck Typlohsion and Meganium were supposed to be, and we all know how much EVERYONE hated the designs for Gen 5.
Saying Gen 3's starters are objectively the worst is pure and utter bullshit and you need to get that dick out of your asshole so you can think like the intelligent being that I'm sure you are.
