Pokemon hot takes

I don't think this would be considered a hot take, especially here, but since everyone else is discussing which starters they think are the worst:
Charmander is the worst starter. Not just because of how much attention it gets compared to other starters, but also I personally think it and its evoltions designs are really boring in a bad way.
Not HORRIBLE, just really, really boring in a way I don't think looks nice.
I dislike the Froakie line but at least the Froakie line looks pretty good. Charmander is just really plain.

Bipedal pokemon (especially starters) are not that bad. It's just really good anime fuel and we get masterpieces like the Armorouge Ceruledge poketoon, Breathe out episode 2 of paldean winds, and floragato in horizons search for laqua. (I haven't seen the newer one past the time skip yet.) If they are not Bipedal, then there is less hand-to-hand combat and it's just disappointing. Unless they levitate, or stand on two legs, the battles are underwhelming.

You know……… this reminds me of an old conversation on this forum…….. anyone hungry? I hear Applin pie is very good.

Greninja is a lame design that everyone hyped up because of the anime.
