Plus we don't even know what the evolution for fuecoco will look like. So it's still up in the air if you want to give it weight or not.
As for the whole thing. If cyndaquil was the beta bear. Then we would not be here. If any of the 9 generations of fire starter was something like...
An octopus, a frog, flamingo, candle, fireball, turtle, rock golem, magmar, heatran, numel, rotom etc etc etc. Then we wouldn't be having any arguments at all.
But since they all fit loosely, and now you got this fuecoco that we don't know what it will be yet, it's fun.
It's like all grass types fitting into dinosaurs or a prehistoric/extinct theme.
You remember how many people got mad over the whole thing with rowlet being a stilt owl
