>>54284802>BlastoiseNever liked the cannons. It just feels too mechanical/artificial/weaponized. It’s kinda cool, but overrated
>FeraligatrBland like the other Johto final starter evos. Just a blue bipedal crocodile.
>SwampertMy personal favorite. Though it wasn’t ever shown off enough, and it’s not the most conventionally visually appealing design. I love it largely because it was my first.
>EmpoleonSolid concept, decent execution. It kinda looks weirdly stiff and stuffy. Objectively, it’s one of the best, but personally I’ve never loved it.
>SamurottBoring monotype, looks too far removed from its first two stages, weirdly proportioned, hard to imagine it wielding its shell swords without looking ridiculous or off-kilter
>GreninjaI far prefer Frogadier’s bubble scarf over Greninja’s tongue scarf, but otherwise it’s very cool.
>PrimarinaIf it wasn’t a starter, I’d probably love it. It just doesn’t feel or look like a starter at all to me. It’s far too feminine for its gender ratio, too.
>InteleonI go back and forth on it. Cool concept, I like the finger water gun. But also I don’t love the body style or its humanish hands. Not as bad as people say it is though. It might be the least offensive starter of Gen 8.
>QuaquavalBotched execution, the feet and legs just look awful. Should’ve been more like
