| Topic | Best starter Pokemon out of all of the starter Pokemon last poll of round three |

However, the pokemon into which it evolves is not a part of that base form pokemon (i.e. the fact that Charmander can evolve is important to Charmander, but Charmeleon is not important to Charmander). Again, you're trying to arbitrarily separate these things for no good reason. When you pick a starter Pokemon in the games, it's BECAUSE you know what it evolves into. If Piplup had a different evo, I would have picked Piplup in the games. If we're being asked to choose a starter here, it has the same considerations as the game. Muffinz0rz posted... Sorry, but by that logic, you're voting for Swampert, not Mudkip. I'll direct you to the poll I posted above. When I tell people to vote without considering evolutions, Pikachu won/is winning. But in Michaelecole's topic, where evolutions are being considered, Charmander won. Technically you're voting for the entire family, although the final form is a major consideration. Muffinz0rz posted... That's like people who voted for Hillary because they supported Bernie but knew he had no shot without the nomination. Just as Charmander has no shot when you don't consider Charizard. Except no, because Charmander still has a decent shot regardless since people like his inherent cuteness. And your one-off poll doesn't prove anything because it's not reaching the same crowd. It's apples-oranges. --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ... Copied to Clipboard! |
