Today we will be looking at the objectively the most famous starter trio(in Japan at least): Froakie Frogadier and Greninja.
Three years ago when XY was announced I'm not going to lie froakie was my least favourite out of the bunch it looked silly and still kinda cute I really liked it too and knew it had a lot of potential and it got the respect it deserved(hopefully Popplio will turn out pretty good too).
Frogadier is by far the best designed out of the bunch and still works wonders with eviolite protean in lower tiers.
And finally Greninja. At first the weird origami face kinda turned me off a llittle. Don't get me wrong I still liked it I did like the tongue scarf idea but was kinda sad the bubbles disappeared. After a while I got used to the face I warmed up to it and I still believe its in-game model really makes it shine not to mention its great shiny version. In terms of competitive play its no secret that its amazing ability made him rise above average and gives him stab to every single move it uses. At the beginning of XY it was at the top of OU but thanks to ORAS its movepool expanded immensely giving it access to things like gunk shot and low kick thus being a fearsome mixed attacker which was really tough to counter because before knowing its move set it would already tear a hole through your team
All in all its a pretty great line I really love and appreciate their design and its amazing especially in competitive play being one of Kalos's top mons.
