>he fell for the "choose fire starter" meme

You firefags should just admit that it's been 10 years since last time Gamefreak made a cool fire starter.

Grass / Water = Glorious Patrician Taste

fire = plebs

I think fire-type starters have always been the objective worst choice to go with

I was about to say "what are you talking about, Infernape was great." Then I realized that was already 10 years ago. Damn.

(Also, I actually liked the Tepig line's designs.)

Nah. Chimchar is sort of ugly, but the other two in that family are great.

Grass is really hit-or-miss in terms of design.

I know it's heresy to speak ill of the Gen I starters, but objectively speaking, Venusaur is ugly. (Bulbasaur and Ivysaur are great, however.) Meganium is probably the lamest starter design in the series. And while I used Torterra in D/P and liked it, it's just sort of forgettable.

Sceptile, Chesnaught, and Decidueye are great designs, on the other hand, and their lines are really good all the way through (give or take a Quilladin).

And then there's Serperior. Really top-tier fantastic design, wasted on a useless Pokemon. Only starter I've ever boxed. It just didn't seem to be able to do anything. Shame, because it really is a great design.

I'm talking in-game, which means only the ability it has available in that context. I know that it can do well in the right circumstances, and that even with its standard ability it has some good setup options, but as a starter for in-game play, it just isn't good.

Hey man I admit they keep botching the final stage, but at the beginning of every fucking generation the fire starter first stage looks like it's gonna be bomb

Where have all the good fires gone
and where are all the zards
where's the streetwise infernape
to fight the furry odds
isn't there a cool snake
just the fire type I need
late at night
I toss and I turn
and I post about what should be

I NEED A HERO
I'M HOLDING OUT FOR A HERO TILL THE END OF THE ZODIAC RIDE
AND HE'S GOTTA BE STRONG
AND HE'S GOTTA BE FAST
AND HE'S GOTTA BE IN UBERS-LITE (ou)
I NEED A HERO
I'M HOLDING OUT FOR A HERO TO SAVE US FROM THE FIRE TYPE PLIGHT
AND HE'S GOTTA LACK LEGS
HE'S GOTTA BE A SNAKE
AND HE'S GOTTA COME OUT IN GEN EIGHT
COME OUT IN GEN EEEIIIGHT

SOMEWHERE AFTER SM
IN MY WILDEST FANTASY
SOME REGION JUST BEYOND MY REACH
A FIRE SNAKE'S REACHING FOR ME

NOT UGLY LIKE EMBOAR
NOT RISING UP ON TWO FEET
GONNA TAKE A SUPER SNAKE
TO SWEEP ME OFF MY FEET

WHERE THE OU TITANS TOUCH THE UBERS ABOVE
AND WHERE THE STEALTH ROCKS KILL VIABILITY
I COULD SWEAR THERE'S A FIRE SNAKE SOMEWHERE WATCHING ME
THROUGH THE CATS AND THE PIGS AND THE BIRDS
AND THE UGLY BADGER
I CAN FEEL ITS APPROACH LIKE A FIRE IN MY BLOOD

I NEED A HERO
I'M HOLDING OUT FOR A HERO FOR THE UPCOMING YEARS
AND HE'S GOTTA BE CUTE
AND EVOLVE INTO A BADASS BRUTE
AND HE'S GOTTA BRING TIGERS TO TEARS

I don't remember having serperior as my starter hurting me too much when I first played through BW

but yeah, it's good as a screen seeder or a coil user with recovery and two attacks with the standard ability, but not much else

Without counting Mega Evolutions, Serperior is right now the best Grass-type starter, and counting Megas, it is the best after Mega Venusaur. It also helps that it is the best user of the Contrary ability, unlike Malamar and its gimmick Superpower with bad stats overall.
