>Charizard gets two mega evolutions, entire anime spin-off is made to advertise one of those megas, only Kanto starter to appear and get a gigantamax form in the base game of SwSh, is Ash's strongest Pokemon
>Typhlosion is the canon starter for Gold in Pokemon Chronicles
>Blaziken gets a mega evolution before the other Hoenn starters, is one of the first Hoenn Pokemon revealed in the anime when it makes an appearance against Ash in the Johto Silver Conference
>Infernape is Ash's strongest Pokemon in Sinnoh
>no-one likes any of the gen 5 starters because they're all shit
>gen 6 is the only exception where Greninja was the shillmon rather than Delphox
>Incineroar makes it into Smash Bros, Ash gets an Incineroar
>bit too early to call any gen 8 starter a shillmon, although Cinderace did get a brand new exclusive ability based on the same strong ability that Greninja had
