>>37685218If they are making a game for hardcore gamers, they might as well ditch starter pokémon altogether. Fire-Grass-Water works as a perfect way to teach new players about the typer dynamics, since it's very intuitive to know which is strong against which. The three typings also teach about some of the fighting techniques you'll be meeting later:
>Grass is the strategist, teaching you to poison, paralyze and put enemies to sleep>Water is the deffensive type with a lot of HP >Fire is the agressive type, with powerful attacksI'm not against taking out the starters, but then they have to put a whole other mechanic just for new players. Just switching types is NEVER going to happen.
