>>20937535>1st gen - all were equal until 6th genNah, before megas, Charizard was NU crap because Stealth Rock shot on his best strategy (belly drum). Venusaur ruled before Amoongus stole his role and Blastoise, while not spectacular, filled a niche as a rapid spin guy who could special attack.
>2nd gen - all equalTrue, mostly. All three are underwhelming.
>3rd gen - swampert proved a great tank and still is. Blazkein was decent but speed boost in 5th gen sealed its place in ubers. cant remember the grass oneSceptile always sucked.
4th gen - empoleon and infernape were pretty good and still are viable in UU. also cant remember the grass one
It was Torterra. He was better than Sceptile, but quadruple weakness to ice (he was part ground) and crappy speed meant he couldn't excel.
>5th gen - all equalYeah, like Gen 2, these starters were sort of crappy. Emboar being part fighting was unnecessary, Samurott had terrible stat distribution, and Servine.... well, at least he learns coil? I've never seen anyone effectively use him, honestly. I don't even know what he's supposed to do.
>6th gen - greninja pretty good, others not soGreninja is stupidly good, and Delphox is garbage. I think if all of them had crappy abilities like Delphox, Chestnaught would be the strongest though. Still not OU as long as Talonflame is running around, but better than the other two.
