Chimchar's Worth
I think that Chimchar, the fire starter, is a lot more cool than people give it credit for. It's cute, powerful, and makes way for a lot of other unique Pokemon to add onto a Sinnoh team.
But with the popular Pokemon media, that isn't news that many people care about. In fact, the anime went so far as to portray Chimchar as a gluttonous jerk. This is mean and unaccurate. Sure, Turtwig and Piplup can handle the first gym, but Chimchar's evolution is the only one out of the 3 starters to get a second type first. |
don't forget that when all three are fully Evolved Infernape has the advantage over both Empoleon and Torterra. and Paul always keeps his Chimchar because he has faith in it and thinks that it hasn't reached its full potential. UGHHH! I can't believe I actually said THAT!

Infact, I beat Geodude and Onix with Hidden Power But yeah I think Chimchar is really cool, I started with him |

Yeah, Ember worked pretty well against his Pokemon, surprisingly.
As I said before, I taught my Bidoof Hidden Power and he mananged to beat Onix and Geodude so it wasn't too hard. |
Yeah great points everyone, but he looks stupid in many people's opinions, including mine. Plus he's not unique. Torterra and Empoleon are new types for stater Pokemon once fully evolved. We've had a Fire/Fighting starter already in R/S/E.
And Charizard, Typhlosion and Blaziken all look cooler I think. A CHICKEN LOOKS BETTER THAN A MONKEY. Fact. I think Empoleon look more dumb though. Stupid penguin, should have stayed a Piplup. |

Er, wha? I'm the only one that thinks Infernape looks cool and Blaziken looks ugly? Hm...
At any rate, Infernape is quite useful if used correctly. And when you consider Blaziken's lack of Close Combat and slower speed, Infernape fits better in the sweeper position. |

And it's all opinion, I have a preference for Dragon and dragon like pokemon, and I guess Blaziken looks slightly more like one then Infernape. I know netiher of them do at all, but meh. Plus that and the fact that I hate primates, may sway my decision. Plus Chimchar evolution line has annoying cries. |

At any rate, I don't like thinking about starters vs. starters, as such a scenario wouldn't come up often enough to matter. ~Wii |
I love the ape so much its made it on to my online team.
I egg moved Thunder and Fire punch on to him because Flame wheel wasn't very good. |
Chimchars are in my opinion the worst satarter in history. IF u can survive 1 hit from them (and most pokes can) they are dead in one hit w/ the exeption of focas sash.

Actually Infernape will be pretty much OU. It is one of the few Pokemon that can destroy the ever so common SkarmBliss.

OMG, dude I will not let Infernape be bashed like this. Infernape and Blaziken are the best no question. Not alot of pokemon can survive their Close combat.

YES. Infernape is wonderful :D
Seeing as how I was born in the year of the Monkey, this might sway my opinion LMAO About the only things it's weak against are flying, psycic and ground. |
i was born in the year of the chicken so i SHOULD be more into Blaziken but i'm more into monkeys for some reason. and whoever thinks Infernape is ugly is an idiot.

Infernape's my fave with Blaziken as 2nd, Charizard is 3rd.
