Well i liked Chikorita
I liked Bayleef aswell but Meganium
is just not good looking i think they should reedit it

I'm going to go with Piplup's evolutionary line. They're all ugly :<

viccuh April 16th, 2012 12:23 PM

A chick evolving into a weird looking chicken and eventually becomes the Bruce Lee of chickens. Even Blaziken can't give this evolution line enough coolness to be anywhere near the other starters. Although Chimchar's line is a good second.

While I don't particularly like Grass Pokemon - and assumed I'd pick a Grass line to answer this poll - it's actually the Totodile line that I really dislike most of all. Partly because they're all so ugly, partly because their movesets are so crappy, but mainly - MAINLY - because of Feraligatr's terrible, horrible name. It joins Conkeldurr in the 'Worst Pokemon names ever!' category, and drags the whole line down.

I hate the Chikorita line. Hate it. I never found them useful for just about anything, and the one time I did use it, I boxed it after the second gym. I also hate the Tepig line. Emboar looks weird, and I thought it was the freakiest looking starter Pokemon.

Plasmette May 12th, 2012 3:28 PM

I was never a big fan of the Unova Starters. Snivy and Oshowatt grew on me...but Tepig. Hes ugly, his evolutions suck, and A THIRD FireFighter in a row? WHY?

blue May 12th, 2012 3:55 PM

It's definitely non of the Hoenn line considering all 3 are great, if I had to chose 1 it would he the Chimchar line. As cool as they may look they just don't really appeal to me and are least favourites out of the lot.

Squirrel May 12th, 2012 6:21 PM

The Totodile line. I've always hated this line. They look ugly and ruin Water types imo. D: There's nothing really interesting about them and they just get uglier and uglier. Totodile is cute, but that's where the positives of the family ends. Other than that, I don't really hate any of the starter lines. I'm indifferent about Mudkip and Torchic, but the rest are all awesome c:

Wow... I didn't even need to type out my thoughts, you appear to have conveniently transcribed them for me.

Totodile's line is the only line that I never really liked any form in it.

Cherrim May 21st, 2012 10:20 AM

Chimchar. ._. It's the only line where I don't like a single Pokemon in it. Every other starter group at least has something I like and would use. This one? Nope. I dislike every single member.

Atomic Pirate June 15th, 2012 3:37 PM

The Piplup line is crap. It looks like crap, and it fights like crap. I would have said the Mudkip line, but I liked that line until a certain internet meme killed it for me. And seriously, what's up with all the Totodile hate? I like that line quite a bit.

Ninjagon June 15th, 2012 4:26 PM

I Hate Chikorita's line. Their base stats aren't of much use, they can't hold their own against anything unless they are of a higher level. But seriously who thought of the names? They were made to make fun of. Look;
- Chikorita = Chikoretard
- Bayleef = Gayleef
- Meganium = Megaynium

Also Piplup's line doesn't appeal to me either, despite that i have used it on several runs.

Oryx June 16th, 2012 9:45 PM

I always found Treecko's line so much more boring than every other line in that generation. :( And since I like all the others that leaves poor Treecko alone!

Ultimate Uchiha June 19th, 2012 5:45 AM

Chikorita's line is definitely the one I can't stand. I don't mind defensive minded Pokemon but, a defensive Pokemon with a terrible movepool is something completely different and that's exactly what you get with Chikorita.

Palkia June 21st, 2012 1:39 PM

Charmander line easily.

"Yeah, I'm totally going to use the one which has half HP with stealth rocks. It would be like I only had 5 Pokemon, and I just chucked in this wannabe Dragonite thing into the mix just because. And who cares if it was useful in mystery dungeon because of heat wave. Can't hit anything to save it's life."

Ok, I kid, but Charziard is horribly underpowered for one of the most iconic Pokemon in the entirety of the games.

Renegade1 June 21st, 2012 3:07 PM

Disliked/dislike the Mudkip line

Obrusnine June 21st, 2012 3:12 PM

Tepig, ugh.

Originally I hated all of the Gen 5 starters. But Snivy's really cool and Oshawotts just so adorable, they kinda just grow on you.

Chimcharguy June 21st, 2012 3:16 PM

What's with all the Chimchar haters? You criticize chimchars evolutions, have you seen any if the Gen V starters - fat, ugly pig beast; queerest snake I've ever seen and whatever samurott is (that ain't No otter...)

Lt. Col. Fantastic June 21st, 2012 3:24 PM

I didn't like Oshawott. It looks bad. But samurott is okay.

In terms of final forms, Pignite looks ridiculous. So, I dislike it.

Aureol June 27th, 2012 7:22 PM

Emboar's line BY FAR.

Which I was really disappointed with. I am one of those earlier-Gen players, but while I wasn't looking forward to the other 2 for this generation, I was really stoked for Tepig's line. But, it failed.

Rivvon June 27th, 2012 8:19 PM

It was a close call between Bulbasaur's line and Tepig's line. While I love Bulbasaur and Tepig, I'm not as fond about their evolutions as I am of them.
In the end I chose Bulbasaur's line because I feel that Ivysaur and Venusaur are just all too similar in design for my tastes. I'm not a big fan of the looks of Pignite and Emboar, but at least they have more variation between them.

Childish_Gavino June 27th, 2012 8:55 PM

Snivy's evolution line gets on my nerves...not because of looks, I think they look the coolest out of all of Unova's starters. It's because they're so terribly weak...I'm not sure about it's base stats...but I think all it has going for it is speed and defense. I quit and started a new file because I couldn't take using it anymore.

katiedawn121 June 30th, 2012 10:09 AM

I'm sorry ... I've never been able to like Treecko :( With all of the other starters, even if I don't like the starter itself, I like one of its evolved forms. Not Treecko-Grovyle-Sceptile though.

Olli July 2nd, 2012 3:43 PM

Probably a suprise to many, as so many find it adorable, but I never actually liked Piplup nor its evolutionary line. I just never really liked the designs of the three Pokémon, though it's mainly Prinplup that I don't like. The same goes for their typing. The Water/Steel thing just never cut it for me, especially because it doesn't leave you with that many moves compared to other dual typings, and I just generally didn't like the match-up either.

So yeah, Piplup line is probably my least favourite of them all.

Tamaska July 8th, 2012 12:30 AM

Tepig family. Love the design of Tepig, But they majorly ****ed up with Pignite and Emboar. I just dont understand how they could give such a bad design for such a good typing...
