>>53943254Their whole gimmick is being lowest common denominator shitmons of their type that are available early on to guarantee that the player can cover their starter's weakness. Which is retarded in itself, because it undermines the difficulty of having to play around the rival's starter. Giving the player too many options early on makes the early game too easy. And that's their whole purpose, making the early game easy, because you'll drop them as soon as you get access to real grass/fire/water types. 6 dex slots wasted on this. The definition of dex filler.
