Worst starter ever. The only redeeming factor about it is that it's not Fire/Fighting.
>>25628937
>They had a chance to show us what it looks like in motion with good graphics moving around and doing all sorts of awesome shit in Pokken
>They very purposely chose not to
Hilarious. They had a chance to sell us on Delphox and just said fuck it.
>>25628937
I just noticed how retarded it looks with that stick.
>>25628937
Shitnaught is objectively worse though.
>>25629078
This. Chesnaught is one of most awkward looking Pokemon in existance and is probably my least favorite starter. I'm played through X probably half a dozen times and not once have I chosen Chespin without boxing it immediately.
All the gen VI starters are pretty fucking ugly, only Frogadier is good looking in any way.
>>25628937
That's not Meganium, Typhlosion, or Chesnaught.
>>25629078
>crusader chipmunk
>worse
No one should have this level of shit taste.
>>25629250
Literally the vast majority of the entire world agrees that Chesnaught is the worst starter ever. It's not even a contest. It's not even an opinion. It's facts.
>>25629269
You spelled Meganium wrong.
>>25629269
>Not Meganium
Hurry up and kill yourself already.
>>25629269
>Vast majority agrees
anon that isn't what a fact is
>>25629269
Yeah you don't speak for the rest of the world buddy. Many people like Chesnaught. The Shiny is one of the best Kalos designs.
>>25629304
>tfw my chespin in x on release day was shiny and wanted to shitpost about it on /vp/ but 4chan was crashing
>>25629250
>>25629304
found the barafags
>>25629304
>Many people like Chesnaught
Incorrect. Chesnaught is an extremely unpopular pokemon.
>>25629412
Incorrect. Chesnaught is not an extremely unpopular Pokemon.
>>25628937
nah it's tough to beat out Meganium on just sheer uselessness, both during the in-game adventure and in competitive.
even as far as fire starters go I'd put it one rank above emboar, who was only made to do one thing, flare blitz.
>>25629269
You are probably vastly retarded but I guess I can still try: Chestnaught is not Samurott or Serperior. Also your opinion isn't worth shit so don't act like you speak for the fucking world population.
>>25629356
>found the barafags
Found the insecure manlet
>>25629459
>Manlets
>The only people who hate bara
Before you even shittalk me I'm 6'
>worse than thphlelsion and emboar
no senpai
>>25629482
wait you're 6yo?
>>25629459
How is being an isecure manlet correlate to finding barafags. Lol reach for the stars anon
And im 6'1"
>>25628937
Except Meganium is the worst starter. Literally no redeeming qualities other than a dual screener.
>>25629482
Yeah that's nice and all but you sure do have some complexes, otherwise you wouldn't hang yourself up on Pokemon that look slightly bigger and more intimidating than others.
>tfw know a guy who really likes Delphox
>he was assblasted when it got cucked by its own prevo in Pokken
>not even gamefreak likes Delphox
>>25629506
Not even the original guy you're talking to, nig. Just pointing out the holes in that logic
Objectively:
>Venusaur > Charizard = Blastoise
>MegaZards > Megasaur > Megastoise
>Feraligatr (Post Gen IV) > Typhlosion > Syphilis > Meganium
>Blaziken > Sceptile > Swampert
>Megatile = Megaken = Megapert
>Torterra = Infernape = Empoleon
>Cancer > Emboar > Serperior > Samurott
>Greninja > Braixen > Delphox = Chesnaught
>>25629269
>Meganium, Samurott, Serperior, Thyplosion, Delphox
Before you shittalk something about the world agreeing to stuff you should realise that these Pokemon are all by far more unpopular than fucking Chestnaught, at least on this board for fucking sure.
>>25629524
>implying the thought of liking Chestnaught equals to being a barafag wasn't flawed to begin with
Just fighting fire with fire here
>>25629571
Most chesnaughtfags are barafags. On an objective viewpoint, it's not flawed logic.
>>25629532
>Bland basic boring yellow human with recycled charizard stats typhlosion being higher than any fire starter or any other dual typed starter for that matter
>>25629571
The original point was liking a big, burly, hairy, masculine creature = barafag. Not all true, but within reason
The rebuttal was calling somebody who says that a manlet, which is a very specific and completely out of left field insult for a strawman against bara. It's similar in how wrong it could be, but makes you look like a dipshit because neither are mutually exclusive
>>25629532
>objectively
lmfao
>>25629591
It was generation by generation, if you didn't notice
>>25628959
They didn't do it cause everyone was busy fapping over Braixen and didn't give 2 shits about Delphox.
>>25628937
i don't mind delphox
it's 3d model is so shit though i don't like using it just because of that
Its sad that Greninja wasn't even that great of a starter, but has become one of the "modern day mascots of Pokémon" purely by default because the other 2 X and Y starters were total shite to such an extreme degree
Guide to good starters:
1) have the last stage be the expected (not natural) progression of both the previous stages.
>get froakie
>evolved into edgier froakie
>expect even edgier froakie as final
>not dissapointed
>get fennekin
>evolved into pedo furbait
>expect tits
>don't get tits
do the math folks.
>>25630163
Froakie was the only Water starter I ever wanted to pick. So make of that what you will
Not even the worst fire starter.
Infernape>Charizard>Delphox=Typhlosion=>Blaziken>Emboar
As far as looks go.
>>25630192
This is correct.
>tfw my favorite starter is Chikorita/Bayleef/Meganium
>>25629482
>6'
>not a manlet
>>25630220
Wailord, stop posting on 4chan
Meganium and Torterra are definitely worse from a competitive standpoint. Maybe Samurott as well.
>>25630174
It's alright anon, I don't feel I can judge taste when Typhlosion is my fav fire starter and Sceptile is the only grass starter I ever had reason to pick
>>25629482
the cut off for not being a manlet is 6'1"
so close
maybe next time
>>25630220
>Toxicroak and Scrafty
>not manlets
>>25630216
It's aight bruh.
We still have the cutest line.
>>25628937
>awesome Fire/Psychic typing
>awesome fire mage design
>awesome 104 base speed
>highest special attack of all non-mega starters
>rare ability which will be great when we finally have the elemental gems back
I know Gamefreak mainly hates Delphox OP, but not all is bad.
>>25630311
>the highest special attack stat of all non-mega starters is 114
That's kind of sad
>>25629591
>yellow human
Let's try to stick with arguments that aren't literal memes, okay?
And typing isn't everything, it's the only thing that can make decent use of Eruptionbut nothing else
>Braixen's Burst isn't evolving into Delphox
Why do they hate this thing so much and how do we fix it?
>>25630348
Take the meme part out and everything is still true
Also a case of just gets bigger
>>25630292
Source for this?
>>25630429
So you think echidnas, weasels, and honey badgers are all the same animal then?
>>25630481
>still being in denial about the fire zodiac being real
They're all mice.

>who was only made to do one thing, flare blitz.
You mean Darmanitan? Emboar has 100 special attack learns coverage like Grass Knot and Scald. It isn't one dimensional at all.
>>25629591
>yellow human
what is this, the simpsons?
It almost makes me proud that Chespin grew into this sasquatch monster.
>>25630640
>100 special attack
oh wow!!!
>>25630387
There's a very simple reason for that and you know exactly what it is.
Evolution in Pokémon is permanent. Unlike Mega-Evolution. Of fucking course Braixen doesn't evolve in Burst.
>>25631270
Seriously? You are seriously proud of that aborted mess?
I really like Delphox, it just suffers like a lot of Pokémon from a bad idle animation and a lot of bad attack animations.
>Typhlosion
>Haxorus
>Skarmory
>Swellow
>Lucario
>Excadrill
>>25631438
I'm disappointed in Magneton. I loved all the rapid movements it used to pull in Stadium.
I guess the idle turned out alright, but it doesn't fly about and spin when attacking, or wig out when it faints.
I bet Slowpoke actually recoils when you hit him in XY.
>>25631438
I disagree with Lucario, they must have spent half the development time just making his and his mega's animations, but I agree with everyone else.
Tropius also gets fucked with his idle animation, also Swellow. I understand GF was trying to make it clear that Flying/Levitate Mons wouldn't be affected by the new terrain moves, but come on.
Also, the proportions are way off for some of the 3D renders. Swampert for instance. Also Nidoking's eyes are way too small compared to his past sprites/official art. And the washed out color palette. Oh my god.
>>25629269
think ur funny m8?
I like all of the starters! :D
>>25631299
Emboar also has Head Smash which is baller. I've also tricked a few psychic types with Sucker Punch OHKOing Espeon and the likes
