>>55826227>>shitmon galore>>seriously it has nothing but shitmonsOf all the complaints GSC gets, this is the one I don't understand.
>you can pick up Teddiursa and/or Phanpy before the first gym, both of whom evolve into very solid pokemon>the Bug-type got a massive glow-up with Forretress, Heracross, Shuckle and Scizor>Ampharos, Granbull, Quagsire, Xatu and Lanturn can all be obtained after Morty at the latest>even the single-stage mons like Stantler, Miltank, Quilfish and Sudowoodo are good>kanto shitmons like Onix, Golbat and Porygon got evos that made them viableEven Togetic, which I had low expectations for, turned out to be surprisingly good if you're willing to put up with training it. Yeah, they're are a few shitters like Ledian, Sneasel and Delibird, but like
>>55826254 said most of the Johto pokemon are on par with the Kanto ones. Not really their fault for getting powercrept into oblivion by newer gens.
