@omarkn7506 It's not available until post game in either Gen 5 (granted no Gen 4 mon is available until post game in BW), its only available in one area in Kalos where it's encounter rate is okay. It's only available through SoS encounter in Gen 7, which would generally mean you have to encounter another pokemon you haven't already caught before it would even show up. It's only available through the Crown Tundra in SwSh and then at a level where you're only going to be able to use it extremely late game with HC rules and its generally only going to be available through special means or not at all in remake games not called BDSP. That said, i would have picked Garchomp over Lucario. Yes, Lucario is a guaranteed egg in DPP, but his encounter rate is generally pretty low in other games, and he's not available until post game in Gen 7. You can potentially get him super early in B2W2 and Lucario woulf absolutely trivialize the first 3 gyms of that game but it's a 5% Riolu encounter and I generally find Cheren pretty consistent with a charm Marill into Growth Snivy combo anyways. Nor is Roxy or Burgh too bad as long as you pick up some counters to poison/bug along the way. There is, however, another pokemon who is available in every game from Gen 4 on including the remakes who usually have a decent to good encounter rate, an excellent typen, Excellent stats, a great ability and a useful second ability if you aren't lucky enough to get the first. It even pairs well with the common flying and water types. Can be encountered before the second gym in B2W2 and will generally have good match ups into most normal trainers, if not gym leaders. Magnezone. Magnezones isn't without its issues with its 4x ground weakness, speed that's too slow to be a fast sweeper and too fast to benefit much from trick room, and its not always the easiest to evolve. That said, the ground weakness can be played around with a strong flying/levitate mon, Magnet Rise, or an air balloon starting in Gen 5. I would also argue the advantages of steel typing more than make up for its weaknesses, dspecially in the Fairy heavy Gen 6 and 7 games. The evolution problem also isn't that much of a problem post Gen 5 as eviolite (usually available early) makes Magneton into a solid answer for a lot of fights. Magnemite itself is usually solid for early game.

I think Heracross deserves a little shoutout for johto. It loses points for being annoying to get, but has a good type matchup against gyms 3-7.

I just wish Heracross didn't suck in the first two games where it's available. In G/S/C it learns no offensive fighting moves, and only Megahorn in the 50s for bug moves. The situation in Gen 3 isn't as dire, with access to the Brick Break TM, but it's still not great... Only from Gen 4 on is it worth using, really.

For Generation 7, while I do think Golisopod is a strong runner up, I raise you a different insect: Ribombee. It has a similarly great typing, can be found in both Alola and Galar, hits decently hard, is blazing fast, and has access to both status conditions and Quiver Dance. It's essentially a Butterfree with a better typing and a worse ability, albeit it isn't nearly as common.

Not an angry comment, but more of a why comment. I feel like the list would do better if you did this by generation of games instead of generation of Pokemon. Take gen 1 for example. You say its gyarados and its not even close, but alakazam and kadabra are also pretty reliable encounters in gen 1 and curbstomp the games. As for honorable mentions, raticate is useless in gen 1 because abilties dont exist yet. I feel like the list doesnt make sense if you dont talk about the games themselves.

alakazam needs trade evo or a modded safefile and thus is pretty bad- gyarados before gen 4 is garbage since water is special and it doesnt get any good flying moves.

@rboss5919 Ай бұрын
Alakazam and Kadabra have fallen off a bit in more recent generations as Psychic is not the best typing when a lot of pokemon have dark type moves. Admittedly Gengar runs into the same issue of dark type moves but he's held up better because of the double immunity to fighting and normal which are both common and gets the triple immunity with ground in games where he still has levitate. Also now that steel no longer resists ghost, gengar doesn't have to worry about steel types holding him back. Plus Abra just teleports away any time you dont have a guaranteed way to prevent them from doing so and fail at your One Ball HG impression. So sometimes running into Abra isn't an advantage, so much as it's a missed encounter. This is actually another advantage for the Gengar line since they can learn Mean Look to prevent that cowardly Abra from getting away. Snorlax is also an insane member to find from Gen 1 and I'd argue its huge bulk and good move pool make it a better mon than Gyarados in non-set up runs. However while it is a guaranteed encounter in Kanto, Johto, Kalos and Galar games, it's otherwise very rare and you won't get the Johto encounter until well-after the main run of the game and by then you probably have a pretty solid team put together.

​@@thevioletbee5879I guess it depends what "best" actually means. If you are just looking at who is the strongest then that's pretty easily Feraligatr, but when you take in to consideration oportunity cost it's probably Typhlosion because fire types are rare. Overall water starters are probably the best, but the grass and fire starters are often the best pokemon of that type in each game while water straters are rarely the best.

@@thevioletbee5879 In Gold, Silver, and Crystal, it's pretty cut-and-dry Typhlosion, since Feraligatr is a physical-attacking pure water type, meaning his only STAB is always special, and the majority of his coverage is as well (shoutouts to Crunch being special). In HGSS, it's a bit closer, but still leaning towards Typhlosion - pure fire is actually a pretty solid defensive type, and the opportunity cost of getting a pure water type as your starter is kind of unfortunate, especially given that the first time you fight a major trainer with a water weakness is literally post-game.

I cannot stress how GOATed Excadrill is in Gen 5 nuzlockes. Easy to encounter as early as Route 4 (and able to be found in most every other cave afterwards) thanks to how Drilbur is encountered and can be searched for safe from Woobats and Roggenrola thanks to repels. Right before the N & Ghetsis fight I taught my Archeops Sandstorm and taught it U-Turn to let Excadrill wreak havoc. Poor Simon fell to Ghetsis' Hydreigon miraculously landing a Focus Blast, after which my Stoutland switched in and avenged my Excadrill with a theatrically appropriate Retaliate.

For Black and White, it's surprising no mention of Zoroark. A mon who break the AI, sweeping anything with a fighting type in the back and a lead with a psychic move it'll spam, it's incredible. And surprisingly not awfully hard to get, you can for sure get it in BW2 which it utterly destroys the E4 in that game except Marshal and doesn't do bad with the gyms and other fights like Colress, and with Ghetsis's lead. It's late in XY but can be got, you can get very early in USUM, overall just an utterly dominate BW pokemon. Sure Excadrill is more easily gotten and a bit better if you don't abuse illusion, though felt it should've gotten in a mention, great video though!

She completely swept the Elite 4 in Gen 5, took out the trash (Ghetsis) & completely swept leon in a Sword playthrough. Yes, including gigantimax Charizard. Lilligant is a monster

What if: a nuzlocke race in a game, with yourself or someone else. Each has to use a different starter and the starter has to survive until the end of the game. Then you can analyze the difference each starter made in gameplay and teambuilding

I'm surprised that Latias and Latios didn't get an honorable mention in Gen 3 solely from the guaranteed one in ORAS before Gym 6, due to their incredible stats and typing for that point in the game. Though I guess you can't find them anywhere else.

I think the second best gen 1 encounter has to be Bulbasaur. It solos the entire early game, and even though it gets less useful late game it means you don't have to sweat about what mons you get for Brock (who if you pick Charmander can be an issue), Misty (for whom you need fast and strong or a Bellsprout) and Surge (a much smaller issue because Diglett cave)

I think that has a lot to do with how you level up in their respective games dragapult was introduced in the generation that introduced xp candy which is a much more tolerable way of getting to high levels whereas for hydreion just had to level up naturally

Cuz Torterra is underrated as a starter, but lets focus on Infernape. Infernape is quite good aswell, but there are many flaws. Most gym and major trainer that you encounter, already have a great alternative. Roark can be dealt with any of the starters, Gardenia, you have Staraptor, or by that point Staravia, who is also really good. Let's also mention the fact that the Turtwig line learns a level-up move in gen 4 to deal with Fantina, something that not too many other Pokemon can do that early in the game, which at that point Monferno can't do anything about. Then, we skip to the 6th gym, where Infernape shines, but yet again, overlaps with the guaranteed encounter Lucario that you can get by that point, who is also REALLY good. Infernape shines with Candice, but yet again, Lucario is also there and REALLY good. Infernape then gets bodied by both Lucian and Bertha in the elite 4, who the demon Froslass can counter both by that point. Now, Infernape does have a lot of redeeming qualities, including being a great counter, especially in the early game, to the infamous Team Galactic's Mars and Jupiter, and their Purugly and Skuntank. Infernape is also great against Barry's Muchlax/Snorlax, in the early/mid game. Plus , he is really fast and he one of the few fires types in the Sinnoh dex and by far the most accessible one. While Infernape is great in theory, in practise he's wishi-washi during a playthrough, but that doesn't mean he can't be utilized well. (Also if you're mentioning Infernape's attack stat, bad news, Torterra has a higher attack stat) (Also, 100% accurate moves? what does that have to do with anything? Pretty much all Pokemon can have fully accurate moves, including Torterra. And accuracy doesn't mean everything if you have a good strategy.) I'm not a nuzlocking expert, this is just what I know from playing an UNGODLY amount of Platinum. Please be free to correct me if I'm wrong on anything I have said here. (From Torterra Fan, with love. (Only like 5 people might get this reference))

i think i agree with the picks for every generation (except maybe 7? but i dont know a ton about that gen) but one thing im a little confused/disappointed in is NO MENTION for skeledirge or lokix. Lokix should've been an honorable mention at least for its access to swarm first impression & decent attack + speed, and a movepool that allows it to sweep the champion fight, a long resume for a common pokemon that evolves early As for skeledirge, i think it should've been the gen 9 pick. It's guaranteed, has great stats, matches up well into the early game, and can sweep several bosses (including two of the elite four) with torch song especially once you get easy access to ev vitamins or the choice scarf to make up for its lackluster speed. its probably the most broken starter of all time. meowscarada is really good but i wouldve given it to big dirge
