Seriously, Meganium is literally less useful than Pidgeot in every way.

The Johto and Unova starters are all worthless

Kanto and Hoenn have megas
Shinnoh has Infernape with Iron fist
Kalos has Ash-Greninja
Alola has Intimidate Incidenroar

other than those, the starters are either too weak, have shit movepools or have shit stat distribution.

Randomize your game, get unknown starters. :P

When is the grass starter not the worst? I mean I only choose it if I like how it looks (like the gen seven grass starter)

I always choose fire starters. My strategy of burn everything to the ground has always worked well.

In-game, definitely
Dies to first two gyms, lacks bulk to survive milftank, can't hit poison/ ghost types for neutral, okay against fighting gym but mostly just poliwrath, neutral against steelix and was before the phys/ special attack rework, can harm some of the ice/ water types and isn't fast to begin with so the signature move of the gym isn't a death sentence, can only hit kingdra for neutral, rival has a really balanced team and nothing weak to you, e4 has several trainers with resistance advantages and super effective moves so only really useful against Bruno. Basically, ass.

In competitive... Yeah probably still trash.

No leech seed means it can't even try and stall a win.

Chikorita is a cute dinosaur that doesn't suck

EVERY scrub complains about miltank but Chikorita can just poisonpoweder GG her

Meganium isn't THAT bad and can just run dual screens with support moves and he's good with that

Blue/Red, perfect advantage through the first 2 gyms to get going through the game fast i guess?

Imagine thinking Feraligatr is bad in either Gen 2 or Gen 4.

Even if you're talking specifically about competitive play, Feraligatr is decent there too.

Chesnaught is good as well, but it's no surprise that he got overshadowed in the generation with Greninja.

First Pokemon game I ever played was Gold, and I picked Chikorita for whatever reason.

No wonder I had a hard time.

Meganium is a defensive pokemon with a poor defensive-typing and without native access to the "typical" Grass-type utility(sleep powder and leech seed). And, of course, the typings of GSC gyms are ridiculously over-tuned against Grass in general.
It's a poorly-realized pokemon.
