I wonder what the decision was to allow Ash's Charmander to evolve. Did it evolve due to Charizard's popularity or did Charizard become the break out mon because it was the only fully evolved starter from Ash's team? Basically did the anime make Charizard popular or did Charizard's popularity make it so the anime felt force to feature it? Would Blastoise have been the Wolverine of Pokemon if Squirtle had evolved instead and Charmander remained...Charmander?
I do think Bulbasaur and Squirtle should have been allowed to evolve too. At least to their mid-evolutions
