Mm a true man of culture. This list is immaculate, usually I end up disagreeing with lists towards the end but you started off strong calling out the humanoid mons then finished strong as well by placing gen 3 in the #1 slot. Great video and editing! lol
You earned yourself a new subscriber! I'm personally a gen five stan myself (it's my equivalent of your R/S/E), but I do mostly agree with the list. (I'd personally switch S/G/C and S/M) (I honestly feel like all three gen 2 starters felt... incomplete. Each starter felt more like they were growing and less so evolving. They add a few touches here and there every stage (which is what gen 1 did except atleast it felt more... epic [i.e: Blastoise gets cannons, Venusaur gets a flower, and Charizard goes from cute fluffy lizard to straight up high fantasy dragon.]) The S/M stater trio at least felt like a thoroughly designed lineup in comparison and felt like they go from level to level smoothly. [I also actually really love Primarina, it's lit and it reminds me of the magypsies of Mother 3- all androgynous and dressed up so lavishly]). I hope nothing but the best for your channel man! I hope it gains traction!
In my opinion, none of the starter trios are bad, I don't think any pokemon is bad in terms of design, there are definitely some I like more than others, but I don't dislike any pokemon's design. Hoenn trio definitely deserves the number 1 spot though.
Wow that's low standards. There just are some real stinkers. I wish everything ever started out in the flowy watercolor style Used for some gen 1 illustrations. Many Pokemon got too simplistic. Basic shapes. Some look more like digimon.
I think the problem with the later designs is that the people working on designs now grew up with the older Pokemon games and anime, which awakened their inner furry. This is also why we have Pokemon like Tsareena
Aye man you don't have to defend shit. I am not the biggest Delphox fan design wise (I do like playing with her in game because she's fun but the design comes across too seductive for my taste) but if it's your opinion then who cares. Shii, I'm glad someone like the Pokemon I don't tbh
Delphox is an almost great design, they should’ve embraced its black mage roots more. It’s too humanoid, it should’ve stayed a gremlin or gotten a big hat or something.
Have no qualms wirh any of the list honestly. I'm just glad my boy decidueye got a good shout. I didnt get a chance to play the pokemon games until i was older, with sun and moon bekng my first. Already loved owls and that line just spoke to me. Was always a great anchor for the team as well as we progressed
I really dislike the Gen 8/9 furry/scaly (or whatever) - bait designs. There are actually some anthropomorphic pokemon that i really like. Guardevoir, Conkeldurr and even Lucario. Even tho Lucario is very popular in the furry community, it atleast looks like a companion to be and not some seductive looking guy in a fursuit. Also nowadays they clearly know what they are doing with those designs. Back then, they couldn't have known that people would "enjoy" Pokemon like Guardevoir. Even Lucario i would say could be more accidental. But now, they are clearly aware of this part in this community. Thats why in Gen 8 and 9, we have got 4 furry bait starter pokemon in total! Like what? Whats for the next gen, only furry bait starters?
"My first battle with May's Blaziken" In Gen 3? You mean where... the rival NEVER fully evolves their starter? So you could never have fought May's Blaziken? Because it never existed.
To be fair I was only 6 so my memory isn't great. She didn't even have a torchic for me since I picked mudkip haha I was thinking of her having the fire type in the anime
If I'm going to be honest, and this is coming from the guy who's favorite Pokémon of ALL TIME is the Squirtle line, I don't think the Kanto trio deserves S Rank. Their overall designs are kinda basic, the middle stages are literally just middle stages, and, let's be real here, Dragonite is basically just if Charizard was actually a dragon. While all three are beloved for a reason, and a very good reason at that, the reason they are typically high on tier lists is for nostalgia purposes alone (after all, that is purely why Squirtle is my favorite 'mon)
Hoenn Starters are the best and i’ve always said so HG/SS are my favorite games but ironically Hoenn Pokémon are my favorite and so is the Region design
As a biased gen 4 fan, I gotta say the gen 3 starters are still the best. (Gen 4 still at my biased #2 spot, screw the OG, Charizard overhyped as hell 😂😂)
I'm Gen 5 starter's biggest hater, I feel like they got so close to being the best starter set but each starter just falls short of being incredible, so I feel like there's a lot of wasted potential there. Also I just hate the Snivy, smug little shits with tiny frail leaf arms.
My man, the Alola trio is easily the best, Incineroar is arguably the strongest starter ever, and Decidueye got a second form to boot, yeah Primarina is kinda sucky sucky no good but the 2 others more than outweigh the faults
I think torterra is cooler than venusaur andnj was the perfect age for pokemone when the originals came out. I do not like the gen that you picked for number 1 but, thats ok. Clarity, i really mean thoae starters. That said i have full respect for the young you that gets final say. Torchick is pretty cute. Good vid
I've just started the video but i'm SOOOOOOOOOOOO happy that galar is in bottom where it deserves kinda a nostalgic top, gen 6 and 7 are cool like maybe not S but B at least. 1st gen are soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo mid
I'm angry that your opinion is different from mine so my comment, instead of being thought out and providing a different point of view, will consist entirely of two words. Ok Boomer. But yeah gen 3 is the best, hands down
My personal rankings; from worst to best: 7; 8 [And I'm English!]; 6; 5; 9 [this is largely carried by Skeledirge but I also like the sort of reference to Brazil/Mexico and Spain itself; all connected to Iberia; they do REALLY rep the region well; perhaps the best starter trio in terms of connection to the region itself.]; 2; 1; 4; 3

The video is fucking awesome. I thought you had thousand of subs just because of how good the editing is. The BRI'ISH and "london" memes made me cry 😂
God damn bro the justification of your top pick was so beautiful. I really didn't expect to tear up watching a stupid pokemon tier list.

Only thing I would swap is gen 8 and gen 9, but I agree with everything else right down to that gen 3 #1 spot. Awesome list 😁
I DONT CARE YOU PUT GEN 9 8TH PLACE THIS IS A SKELEDIRGE W AND I WILL ALWAYS STAND FOR IT
You like pokemon sus
personally i just love how with training and the bond between you and your trainer you can achieve anything

Your list was spot on. The earlier generation 2D starters minus Johto are very iconic.
still brutally underrated
What is this video, hiw's this so good with so little viewers, hope it changes
Criminally underrated
Amazing editing for a channel with only 3k subs. Wishing you and your channel well
I think the problem with the later designs is that the people working on designs now grew up with the older Pokemon games and anime, which awakened their inner furry. This is also why we have Pokemon like Tsareena
Joined before 1k
I respect the placement of the Unova mons
Hey, I will defend Delphox till the day I die! Certainly my favorite of that generation no doubt.
Aye man you don't have to defend shit. I am not the biggest Delphox fan design wise (I do like playing with her in game because she's fun but the design comes across too seductive for my taste) but if it's your opinion then who cares. Shii, I'm glad someone like the Pokemon I don't tbh

Feraligatr alone deserves S tier, atleast the Gen 3 version because of the backsprite
You did my cinderace dirty bruh😭
Sapphire was my first pokemon game, Gen3 will always be my favorite too all 3 are dope
The reason you are so attached to the Hoenn trio is why I always venture back to Johto.
underrated channel
Have no qualms wirh any of the list honestly. I'm just glad my boy decidueye got a good shout. I didnt get a chance to play the pokemon games until i was older, with sun and moon bekng my first. Already loved owls and that line just spoke to me. Was always a great anchor for the team as well as we progressed
Just curious how would you rate the Hisuian starters?
I feel like they're pretty much just cooler versions of the regular versions of those starters. So somewhere in A tier probably
@@bignstuffnormal Decidueye outclasses hisuian any day
Ur Endeavor joke made me hate Emboar less XD gj
🔥🔥🔥
I really dislike the Gen 8/9 furry/scaly (or whatever) - bait designs.
There are actually some anthropomorphic pokemon that i really like. Guardevoir, Conkeldurr and even Lucario.
Even tho Lucario is very popular in the furry community, it atleast looks like a companion to be and not some seductive looking guy in a fursuit.
Also nowadays they clearly know what they are doing with those designs.
Back then, they couldn't have known that people would "enjoy" Pokemon like Guardevoir. Even Lucario i would say could be more accidental.
But now, they are clearly aware of this part in this community.
Thats why in Gen 8 and 9, we have got 4 furry bait starter pokemon in total!
Like what?
Whats for the next gen, only furry bait starters?
"My first battle with May's Blaziken"
In Gen 3? You mean where... the rival NEVER fully evolves their starter? So you could never have fought May's Blaziken? Because it never existed.
To be fair I was only 6 so my memory isn't great. She didn't even have a torchic for me since I picked mudkip haha I was thinking of her having the fire type in the anime
Hoenn starters are top tier for everybody! 💪🏾
ok hear me out though, grass monkey that funkey monkey
I appreciate you doubling down at the start lmao
W List, W Video, W’s all around
If I'm going to be honest, and this is coming from the guy who's favorite Pokémon of ALL TIME is the Squirtle line, I don't think the Kanto trio deserves S Rank.

Gen 3 changed my life fasho 🙏🏾🙏🏾
I like all the starters equally OK this may not be good but my first game was sword and shield so I still have a bit of a buzz towards those starters
the audio at the end, what game is that from? I forget
The song is aquatic ambience by scizzie
I also picked mudkip. Great video man🥹
Hoenn Starters are the best and i’ve always said so
HG/SS are my favorite games but ironically Hoenn Pokémon are my favorite and so is the Region design
As a biased gen 4 fan, I gotta say the gen 3 starters are still the best. (Gen 4 still at my biased #2 spot, screw the OG, Charizard overhyped as hell 😂😂)

I agree with this list 100%
Thank you for not under rating my favorite region. If you’re wondering it’s number four because I really samurott
My man, the Alola trio is easily the best, Incineroar is arguably the strongest starter ever, and Decidueye got a second form to boot, yeah Primarina is kinda sucky sucky no good but the 2 others more than outweigh the faults
Most American thing I’ve ever seen in my life
The only thing I agree on is that furry sucks
I think torterra is cooler than venusaur andnj was the perfect age for pokemone when the originals came out.
I do not like the gen that you picked for number 1 but, thats ok. Clarity, i really mean thoae starters. That said i have full respect for the young you that gets final say.
Torchick is pretty cute.
Good vid
I've just started the video but i'm SOOOOOOOOOOOO happy that galar is in bottom where it deserves
kinda a nostalgic top, gen 6 and 7 are cool like maybe not S but B at least. 1st gen are soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo mid
I'm angry that your opinion is different from mine so my comment, instead of being thought out and providing a different point of view, will consist entirely of two words.
Ok Boomer.
But yeah gen 3 is the best, hands down
Your attack was super effective 😭
i mean putting the gen 9 starters in F tier because of their designs, seriously? i can tolerate it
HAHAHA YESS GEN 3 STARTERS ARE PERFECT, GEN 3 IS PERFECT, GEN 3 GEN 3 GEN 3
now rank individually
That stuff they play in the US is the boring kind of football. You couldn't win at real football so you invented your own.
My personal rankings; from worst to best:
7; 8 [And I'm English!]; 6; 5; 9 [this is largely carried by Skeledirge but I also like the sort of reference to Brazil/Mexico and Spain itself; all connected to Iberia; they do REALLY rep the region well; perhaps the best starter trio in terms of connection to the region itself.]; 2; 1; 4; 3
Braixen🔛🔝 > delphox 😕
A furry fan
The Hoenn Starter Trio is GARBAGE 🤮
L take
Say you’re joking RIGHT now.
Thank you for letting know this video isn’t about how actually good the mons are and I can just skip it 🤌
