Incineroar LOOKS like a Fire/Fighting-type, even if it’s a Fire/Dark type, and it does shift from quadrupedal to bipedal. Gen 7: Litten, Torracat, and Incineroar – Litten walks the line between good and bad in terms of design. Fennekin is so close to A-tier that it can taste it. Still, it’s not a bad design, and its unique typing goes a long way-this is especially true with its excellent stats. It’s further undermined by making a quadrupedal Pokemon into a bipedal one, a trend many hope dies. His stats are well rounded and make him a solid starter, despite many weaknesses (6). Venusaur has an average move set to go along with typical starter base stats (525). Gen 6: Fennekin, Braixen, and Delphox – Fennekin gets points for breaking the Fire/Fighting trend, but its Fire/Fox design has been seen before. Maybe its just me, but I find the grass type to be the weakest overall in Pokemon Fire Red. But more than anything, the repeat of Fire/Fighting hurts here. If Chimchar and Infernape had a little more going for them than Fire/Monkey, then it would certainly be an A-Tier, but it’s also certainly understandable if Chimchar/Infernape is someone’s personal S/A-Tier.

Gen 4: Chimchar, Monferno, Infernape – Chimchar and Infernape’s mixed attack/glass cannon stats do a lot of work for it. Design of the first and final form is where the most attention is paid, and then these Pokemon were sorted into tier lists and then sorted numerically based on the starter’s generation. RELATED: Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Fan Creates Their Own Version of Sprigatito's Final Evolutionįor this Fire Starter tier list, design is king, typing is nearly as important, and stats come in last. Stats, at least here, will serve a tertiary role. It’s hard to say that any one of them is definitively the best, but their design and typing often play a major role. There was one major issue for a few generations, but otherwise, several Fire Starters have a special place in many trainers’ hearts. Yet, in just about every generation like Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, the Fire Starter does prove to be pretty popular. F uecoco’s popularity hinges on its design almost entirely, though, and Sprigatito’s popularity is based on what the grass cat starter can be associated with. One could argue that Fuecoco and Sprigatito are the most popular starters coming out of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, at least based on the one trailer it has had thus far.
