This is Greninja, who's responsible for Starter Wars thanks to GameFreak being biased.
Say something nice about him!

You sound like a falseflagger trying to get people mad at Greninja. Not sure if you're a littenfag, poppliofag or rowletfag, but kys regardless.

I mean, we only get one shot at getting an exclusive ultra powerful form and thus special treatment for Decidueye. It's our only chance.

Greninja is a symptom of the starter wars, not a cause. The war began before it was even revealed.
The real cause? Charizard.

>Two mega evos while Blastoise and Venusaur only got one
>Everything about X in particular. There is a very good chance that Fire only resists Fairy because Zard X and Mega Blaziken would have looked bad otherwise.
>Generations basically being a Zard X commercial, along with retconning Red's intended starter

Although early signs of the war appeared even earlier. As far back as Gen 5 Sugimori was getting Blaziken favored and Swampert and Sceptile shafted.

But they've never had any real meaning up until Greninja, who was pampered like fuck while all five (six if Blaziken counts) other Starters in XY didn't get too much that compares to Protean and its absurd movepool. And then Greninja became the ideal Starter for SM with Battle Bond and a Water Shuriken Buff, especially when Alola is full of slowmons and their Starters aren't exactly that great.
Now every Starter War is everyone flinging shit at each other because they want their Starter to be Greninja 2.0, which also ties into Anime Shitposting because the anime's the entire fucking reason Greninja is in this position.

Putting aside that you might just be falseflagging, I can never understand why anyone would want their favorite starter to be another special snowflake.

What, does your starter's popularity to others matter that much? Is it worth it putting them through what Greninja faced once just for the sake of getting a "special treatment"? Do the current them not mean anything to you?

I really am curious.

I've met so many people who didn't even know that was its tongue. When I went ahead and told some of them, their responses were priceless.

I wonder how many Greninja fans go on loving the design, blissfully unaware of this little oddity.

I know about the tongue, and even I tend to forget it actually is one until I remind myself. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

Personally as someone who doesn't like Greninja the tongue scarf is my favorite part. I love it when Pokemon use actual aspects of the animal they're based off of to fit their theme. It's why gen 3 starters are so much better than gen 4 starters, for example.

Check out the dates on those articles and fuck off with that shitty meme. Feel free to go to the /vp/ archive, Serebii, Bulbapedo forums or any Pokefag website even before the Smash reveal and you'll see that Greninja was an instant favorite.

The Anime's directly related to Starter Wars because whoever Ash fully evolves is a possible candidate for getting the Snowflake Treatment.

But the point is that Ash having a Starter doesn't mean it will fully evolve.

See:
>Squirtle
>Bulbasaur
>Totodile
>Chikorita
>All Gen V Starters

There are some starters whose first forms are more popular than their final forms, like Squirtle, and there are some starters whose Final Forms are more popular than their base forms, like Greninja.
