Not sure honestlyDid we not just have the same thread but worded differently? I’m sure that this was all being discussed in the grass starter thread..
Well this one specifically discusses Fire Starters in particular.Did we not just have the same thread but worded differently? I’m sure that this was all being discussed in the grass starter thread..
Simple it would've taken away all the limelight away from infernape given its popularity hence wasting 4 years of storyline that was built.I still can't believe Charizard didn't appear for the entirety of the Sinnoh saga. It feels like a different era, especially now when you think about it
Not to mention I'm pretty sure the Rowlet line obliterated the Litten line in popularity
People also seem to be jumping to the conclusion that the anime evolving a Pokemon means it's popular and "getting favoritism" and whatever, when the actual truth is that it'll evolve Pokemon if the EVOLVED FORMS are popular. Evolving a cute and popular little critter into an ugly thing way less people like is just hurting your own merch sales. Hence why Pochama and Mokuroh never evolved in the anime despite being the most popular starters in their respective gens.
i've never considered their evo's to be ugly, yes Dartrix needs to have it's face bashed in for it's smug look but it's not the worst i've seen in terms of design.
I don't think Pochama's evolutions are all that DISLIKED really, they're just liked less than Pochama, so evolving it means cannibalizing the sales of Pochama merch. And TPC doesn't want that to happen.
Wdym?They don’t get enough favoritism tbh
I’m joking (mostly). Besides Gen 2 & maybe 3, the Fire starter is always my favorite of the three so their “favoritism” doesn’t bother me too much.Wdym?
Aren't Charizard, Infernape, Incineroar, Cinderace, and somewhat Blaziken favored enough by both the Anime Gamefreak already as is?
What other Starters are even coming close to them besides Greninja
