Literally FoTM that's only "popular" because the other 2 starters were so bad. No other gen was this skewed in favor of another starter.

If it's about the first stages then Fuecoco is getting some spotlight too and seems to be pretty popular, like in that latest jp poll. In last years jp poll Fuecoco got really close too.

maybe he meant when samurott was the one chosen to get a hisuian form and it was a damn good form
but originally the closest to "shill" tier was Serperior with Contrary

Gen IV shill starter was Piplup, anime gave it a thousand more attention because of Dawn, with the TCG and games following close after, even with ash's infernape being the superior character and actually evolving
