These three seem perfect to me. Munchlax was a starter in Time & Darkness, but for some reason he's only available as a partner in Sky which sucked. (Although he's the best partner, mind you.)

Eh. Again, arguments about Pikachu (despite its status as an obligatory icon, because Pichu can be worth a shot, but I assume this is not the case fpr whatever reason) not being a baby Pokemon can be made too, so I know exceptions can most definitely be made for Floette and other Pokemon, also (which was intentional, by the way. I'd rather at least start with a second-stage unevolved Pokemon than something too weak like Flabébé).

Stats from levels are based entirely on a deterministic list for each Pokemon. There is no formula such as those from the mainstream games. No EVs, no IVs, no natures, no base stats. It is impossible to control the level up stats. Furthermore, stat-boosting items may be used infinitely until stats reach 255 and HP hits 999, on any Pokemon, if you have the patience to keep finding such items.

Evolution is a flat +5 to stats and +10 to HP. Nothing more, nothing less, in terms of stats, other than possibly a different list of stat-ups from the following levels. There's still other things, like what new moves are available and so forth.

I wouldn't call Flabébé weak by Mystery Dungeon standards. As I said from my earlier posts, it works completely different than the core games.

Even Pachirisu can be a tough cookie in PMD; Their stats shouldn't be judged by the standards from core games, it's completely unfair. I take back what I said about the baby Pokémon though, as Riolu is a baby Pokémon. I guess it has something to do with their learnset, Riolu and Munchlax are among those few babies with numbers of level up moveset. While Pichu on the other hand is a bit limited, it has only 6 moves. Poor Togepi who has potential to be a starter is forgotten.

I'd like to see the pseudo-legends, Togepi, Trapinch, Ralts, Zorua, Pancham, Espurr, Helioptile, Growlithe, Rhyhorn, Tangela, Gligar, Sneasel, Smoochum, Elekid, Magby, and Tyrogue as starters in future PMD games. Maybe Gastly, Misdreavus, Drifloon, Litwick, and Honedge too.

For previous starters, I'd like to see Vulpix, Meowth, Machop, Cubone, Eevee, Shinx, Munchlax, and Axew return.
