Ranking Every Starter Trio from Worst to Best

From Bulbasaur, Squirtle, and Charmander all the way to Sprigatito, Quaxly, and Fuecoco every starer Pokemon is essential. But here in this video I went by and ranked every single starter Pokemon from the worst to the best.
My criteria for this ranking includes: design, stats, usage, nostalgia, competitive viability, and anime roles.

[@sammydroubi6022]

@@MeowthGames I do admit oshawott has much better attacks and evolutions, but I prefer to choose totodile as my water type starter.

I think you should've have included Hisuian starters, as a trio, how good they are? They're pretty good imo

[@max-eb2wc]

Easily top 3

[@piobenjaminsolis9696]

Yes, I agree! Primarina is so underrated! Imo Primarina deserved more interest in the anime. It got decent attention but it deserves more! And Ngl Primarina's design is EPIC! Before you say, *Primarina is too feminine* yes i know, but its design is way too good... I believe its the only mermaid pokemon there is... (Walrein is a seal 🦭) And in battle... Its just Amazing!!! In the Anime, Lana's Primarina won against Melow's Tsareena... Grass is super effective against water but Primarina still managed to win.... I like the signature move sparkling aria and i LOVE that primarina sings when it uses the OP z-move ocianic operetta And sparking aria... primarina is my fav starter 100% i know a lot of people like Greninja more but ye! Last thing, primarina's type combo is amazing..! Thats all!❤ Thx for reading! ❤ #supportprimarina*

[@princesspikachu3915]

Primarina gets plenty of love from Pokémon Go Battle League players. I don’t personally run it but I’ve had to counter that thing so many times. It’s probably one of the most common water types used along with Swampert and Kyogre in Pokémon Go Battle League.

[@tomfooIeryz]

My opinions: 9: Johto Chikorita is actually terrible and Totodile is alright. However, I love Cyndaquil. 8: Paldea Quaxly has terrible later evolutions, Fuecoco is alright and Sprigatito is amazing. 7. Unova Snivy line is one of my favourites and Oshawott is great (besides Samurott) but Tepig is hot garbage. 6. Sinnoh No complaints with Piplup and Turtwig, but not the biggest Chimchar fan. 5. Kanto They all have good designs but none of them stand out. 4. Galar Sobble and Scorbunny line are pretty good, Grookey line is alright. 3. Kalos Froakie is one of the most iconic designs and Fennekin is great. Chespin had potential but was ruined by the later two evolutions. 2. Alola Every evolution looks great, the middle evolutions aren't awkward at all and have a lot of personality. They have unique types and I love all 3. 1. Hoenn This slightly edges out Alola because Swampert, Blaziken, and Sceptile are all iconic and the only "bad" design here is Marshtomp

[@DazedMemories]

I believe that Chespin line is based on a hedgehog, not a chipmunk. I personally think that Greninja is overrated. I don't really care for its base forms and the boils on its body gross me out a little. As for my favorite, I have to say it's Meowscarada. I love cats and I think it's concept of a stage magician is really cool. All in all, I think my favorite trio is probably Blaziken, Sceptile, and Swampert, since they are all really solid in all stages design wise and still are great in battle.

[@Gilbert_Dice_Gottfried]

Oof. Putting the unova starters dead last hurts but I understand your point. I never liked emboar and samurott until I used emboar in a playthrough because I heard it was good and it was. Design-wise I wished they made it look like more of a warrior and less like a pig. Kind of similar to what they did with greninja because greninja’s appearance diverges from it’s previous two forms, looking less frog and more ninja. Snivy on the other hand, was the first unova starter I used and I love snivy’s whole evolution line so much. The snide attitude that snivy has is so adorable. I disagree with the video about servine because it’s one of my favorite middle stage starters. I like it just about as much as I like serperior. Speaking of which, I have always loved dragons and despite being a snake and not a dragon, it kinda reminded me of the dragons from spirited away or dragon ball. I loved having a green serpentine dragon as a starter. Samurott I just thought didn’t look that good, partly because I didn’t really like the idea of it being a samurai because it felt gimmicky. I think Dewott was by far the best in that whole line. It’s the perfect mixture of cute and awesome, especially the unique shade of blue that it has.

[@bigd8199]

Hoenn is my favorite region!! Thank you for putting them at #1!! 😄

[@PopplioSplash]

My personal opinion: 9. Johto (I’m sorry but the generic “get bigger” design philosophy does not appeal to me for a starter line. Thankfully Typhlosion got fixed for me in PLA.) 8. Kanto (They are iconic and I respect that but none of them are top favorite tier for me) 7. Kalos (The Fennekin line is the only one I really love these days. Froakie is cool, although overrated and I hate Ash Greninja, and Chespin just kind of… exists) 6. Sinnoh (Really solid trio all around, what can I say?) 5. Unova (I really love the Snivy and Oshawott lines, Tepig line is okay) 4. Galar (Kinda similar to the Unova starters, I love the Scorbunny and Sobble lines, not too huge on the Grookey line personally, but it is good in battle so…) 3. Hoenn starters (Just a really great trio all around from beginning to end) 2. Paldea (One of the two goated starter trios, all three starters start off adorable, have cool themes to their lines and are utilized really well in their final stages. Though both the Fuecoco and Quaxly lines are great, the Sprigatito line is the shining star here. Also Sprigatito had far more potential with a cool biped evo than the bland ass quadruped evos people kept on asking for, just sayin’.) 1. Alola (This starter trio is the shining star of perfectly designed starters for me. Three great first stages, middle stages that are either cool or tolerable, and awesome final stages with cool themes. Though the Popplio line is easily my favorite out of the three, I think both Rowlet and Litten are top tier as well. Also same thing I said about Sprigatito being biped applies to Litten too.)

[@Blanka767]

Paldean starters are my favorite, i actually like their design and that they're on latin america (and i'm brazillian). They're very fun in battle too

[@eclipsome5981]

my personal ranking. 9th place: JOHTO starters. (the middle stages look better than the final forms, excluding the alligator) 8th place. kanto starters: (nostalgia the only thing saving these mons and charizard ig) 7th place: KALOS starters( greninja carrying this trio on its back , lets be for real) 6th place GALAR starters ( i hated cinderaces arms, its lost its coolness from its middle stage, rilaboom is fine, the drum is kinda distracting tho. intelleon is fine as well, it proportions seem kinda odd tho) 5th place UNOVA starters( honestly the most overhated starters). 4th place PALDEA starters. ( i wish they crocodiles fire look different, the ducks feet looks, like sausage, meowscarada is cool , wish the mask was smaller tho). 3rd place ALOLA 2nd SINNOH 1st HOENN

[@shivammishra2141]

Man it's like I'm telling my favourites and non-favourites...just so accurate

[@simonenyota5382]

I really love Skeledirge's design and that it's a step in a different direction from anthropomorphic final forms and the fire/fighting dual type (Also I'm low-key biased with Ghost pokemon)

[@akilcharles3473]

Emboar is not my favorite but it helo me alot in my playthorugh of BW & BW2. And the design of his is that of something from dynasty warriors like a Chinese warlord. And sure fire/fighting has been drawn out after 3 regions but is still effective even as to now in Scarlet & Violet where it is much better in later games. I still like it but overly thrill as it is my favorite fire starter, that goes to Infernape.

[@superflameking03]

I honestly think the Sinnoh starters are the best. In terms of theming they are what every starter pair after them were trying to achieve and in terms of animals, penguins and monkeys are animals that are exotic and can easily be portrayed as either cute or cool and they nailed both, and I’m just biased towards turtles in general and I’m not the only one. When I first saw these guys it was the hardest choice of any of the starters I had ever made and that still holds true to this day because they’re all just so wonderful and perfect, and that’s not nostalgia talking from me as my favorite (and first ever) Pokémon is Squirtle and I’m a loser who owns Platinum but still hasn’t beat it. You pointed out Prinplup as the weak link among them and while I can agree I don’t think it drags them down as muchas you seem to. An overall amazing trio. I can’t wait for a starter trio who can rival them in the future! (A king can dream, can’t he?)

[@MahamedFarah-go1rt]

My fav is litten THIS MY OPINION BUT LITTEN IS WAY BETTER THAN HIS OTHER 2 forms and greninja idk litten kinda reminded me of killing from hunter hunter do you agree

[@Magikarp_shiny]

[@PeteFredrickson]

Kanto is easily number 1 for me, it doesn't get any more iconic than the original 3. Charmander is my personal favorite of the Kanto starters, but I genuinely feel like you can't go wrong with any of them. Even my least favorite, Bulbasaur, is really cool, and would probably be my favorite if he were the grass starter in other gens. And I agree with putting Unova last and Galar next to last. Those starter trios just didn't really do it for me.

[@RatedRMario21]

I'd personally swap Kanto with Alola. You have to give Bulbasaur/Charmander/Squirtle props for being Kings of Merch alongside their buddy Pikachu. Also no trio as a whole had the same impact the Kanto boys did on the anime. From the brave but sometimes stubborn Bulbasaur, to the craven turned moody and aloof (upon evolution) Charmander to (my all-time favorite) the adorable and irresistibly lovable (despite being a huge a--hole) Squirtle

Sinnoh (Torterra is my 4th favorite starter, behind Greninja, Cinderace & Incineroar and the other lines have great pokémon) 2. Kalos (Greninja is my favorite pokémon of all time and the other 2 starter trios aren't bad, Fennekin line grew on me) 1. Alola (Both Rowlet & Litten lines are really great, Litten line is my favorite starter line overall.

Rillaboom is only any good because of grassy terrain, Cinderace is only good because it can court change on Gholdengo, and in all my hours on nat dex over never seen a inteleon. Hell even in battles on SwSh I never saw one. Their biggest upsides which are their hidden abilities, which you won’t even get until late game so you can’t even use them on a normal playthrough. Court change is negligible on a normal run anyway since none of the people you face off against in the actual games use any kind of hazards. 85% of people who play Pokemon games don’t really play for any competitive reason.

[@princelife7730]

Unova is my favorite! Just based on personal preference….unova was my first game so the unova starters hold a special place in my heart…especially the Snivy line . Yall don’t want Unova.. I’ll take Snivy ANYDAY over any other starters in a heartbeat.

To me Chesnaught is a bear with porcupine quills.

[@thatboyminus]

[@chandlerduke_4026]

unova doesn’t need all that hate

[@princelife7730]

My point exactly

[@er9624]

1 Charizard Sceptile Sammurott 2 Blazekin Blastoise Servine 3 Decidueye Inteleon Infernape

[@joopvanhedel1372]

starter pokemon are made in a lab to be your favorite all starters are someone's favorite even Chikorita speaking of Chikorita I don't understand the hate Chikorita is super cute even for a starter

[@nicodiangelo7051]

Why does everyone disrespect alola? Incineroar, unlike emboar pulls off the standing up in a very cool way imo and I don’t see a problem with primarina being feminine

[@user-cb9tj8gn3b]

Lets be honest here,charlizard losing to blazekin was just for the promotion of gen 3 at the time

Too bad Blaziken still better

@@WallOfGamingnah Charizard >>>> he’s gonna keep getting more forms and love, and I’ll keep loving all of them and encouraging it.

[@WallOfGaming]

@@AnonDudeBro I don't think Charizard is getting any new forms now, since it was confirmed that pokemon takes ideas from the community and no one wants more Charizard forms

[@AnonDudeBro]

@@WallOfGaming we will see, Charizard is still coming up absurdly high in popularity polls.

@@WallOfGaming there are op charizard out there ash charizard since jotho became more op, there is leon charizard, there is alain charizard

[@ghastyfox5049]

in the anime (ash based), its infernape, greninja, and sceptile (honorable mention to charizard and rillaboom) . If red is included, it's close between infernape and charizard (but charizard DUB). Greninja and Torterra were fire in detective pikachu. If the games are included, its Incineroar, charizard and sceptile (with swampers coming in a close fourth). Overall: sceptile, Charizard and greninja wins.
