>>46497287Flash Fire-Eruption is an great niche, especially as the fastest Eruption user, the only problem is that its literally the only thing that it can do.
4th most popular Pokemon in the entire Johto region. It only lost to a legendary, a psuedo-legendary, and an eeveeolution, Pokémon that Game Freak goes out of their way to shill. This is even more impressive since Typhlosion was given no moves and appears in the anime less the fucking Jynx). Imagine how popular Typhlosion would be if Game Freak wasn't intentionally sabotaging it.
Also, the Cynada-family was one of the few starter families wear ALL members made the top 30 of their region (not even the Shillzard line accomplished this).
Cyndaquil got chosen to be the fire starter for Legends instead of CHARMANDERINO FROM KANTO and made Kantofags seethe for a week.
