But this? This fucker is minimalist slop with a bad color palette and ripoff design.
He is instantly, 100% the worst first stage starter I have ever seen. The other two have flaws imo but no more than any other gen. (Alright, Gecqua is kinda just Sobble again, but it at least looks interesting).
Even Chespin beats him by a country mile. I saw the leaked post last night and legitimately was 100% convinced he was fake, designed by a free online AI.
Also, Kanto starters suck. And Kanto was my first game. It's not just new = bad. It's just bad.
