Outside of the Indigo run he had Infernape, Greninja, and Krookodile. Bulbasaur's win rate as a NFE not named Pikachu is impressive.
>>57413277"Journalism" is incredibly lazy blogging now. This is junk information to hit a quota, a bullshit article with a false premise about nothing anyone has ever said. It's been Snorlax, Charizard, and Kingler since the 90s, anyone who watched the show knew Pikachu lost to dumb bullshit as much as he won with dumb bullshit. He was exactly as strong as the plot required at that moment in time.
