I'm curious y'all. I've asked about your favorite Pokemon in general before, but what are your most preferred starters from each Pokemon generation?

For me personally...
Kanto: Squirtle
Johto: CHIKORITA :152:
Hoenn: Treecko, despite the moveset issues
Sinnoh: Piplup
Unova: Snivy
Kalos: Fennekin, but I've chosen them all a LOT. This is the best gen for starters IMO
Alola: Litten
Galar: SOBBLE BAYBEEEEE
Paldea: Fuecoco, but I have some love for Sprigatito cuz I think Meowscarada would be Gabby Disventure Camp's favorite Pokemon

Bulbasaur
Totodile
Mudkip
Chimchar
Oshawott
Froakie (all time fav)
Rowlet (second fav)
Grookey I guess
Fuecoco

My answers for Johto and Galar have changed over the years, mostly because I'm not crazy about any of the starters in those regions. The others are pretty much set in stone regardless of whether or not they have competition for my favor (they usually do)

Kanto: Charmander (yes I’m basic SHUT UP)
Johto: Cyndaquil (Typhlosion kicks ass)
Hoenn: Mudkip (Swampert also kicks ass)
Sinnoh: Turtwig (Big ass tree turtle is chill)
Unova: Oshawott (the first Pokémon I ever owned)
Kalos: Chespin (Yeah, I’m that guy)
Alola: Litten (It was a risky investment but it sure did pay off)
Galar: Scorbunny (I was team Sobble for a bit…until it evolved)
Paldea: Fuecoco (With Skeledirge, everyday is fat **** Friday!)

Fear not, I am also That Girl

I know I said Fennekin was my preference but honestly all of the Kalos starters are unbelievably peak, and this absolutely includes my boy Chespin

Honestly, Chesnaught is not only wicked cool in design, but it also might have my favorite name of any Pokemon. You can't call a brawling squirrel warrior anything cooler!

Also Charizard is overhated tbh

Also I totally forgot Hisui. Well, like I said Cyndaquil's my preference there, if only for Hisui's Chill-phlosion.

Sometimes you see someone say an opinion contrary to yours about a media franchise you like and you just wanna choose violence.

It’s not healthy. You shouldn’t do it. But it’s harder and harder to stop yourself. Like a friggin werewolf inside of you that just wants to cause carnage.

My brain is hell.

We now have confirmation that the Year of Eevee celebration isn't exclusive to Pokémon Center stores.

Will it mean what many think it could mean? Who knows?

It hopefully means new Eevee evolutions.

we are long overdue for one and given we are going back to the region that gave us the last one; it be nice to have them follow it up. Give us a dragon or maybe a steel or fighting one that helps with construction in the city.

Time for 2 Pinball FX updates:

The Jurassic Park tables are getting the iconic theme music! This update will cover all versions of the game.
For Nintendo Switch, all remaining Williams tables are coming to FX on February 27. Williams packs 4-6 and Indiana Jones are also on FX3. Buying that version will give you the FX version at no additional cost. Pack 7 will also be available individually.
Edit: On the topic of Pack 7, one table in it (Bride of Pinbot) has few bugs that will be fixed with this update.

If legends is in the past, I realized there’s a good opportunity to include a new eevee evolution.

Just put it in the Space Time Distortions. Therefore it comes from the future of the region which would make sense.

This would actually be a fun way to throw in a Gen 10 pokemon too, but I doubt they would do that.

If they ever make a Bug-type Eeveelution, I am BEGGING ON MY KNEES for it to have a cool, sharp design and not just a fuzzy moth fox (though an Eeveelution with Quiver Dance sounds tempting...)

50% of all the fan-made bug-type Eeveelutions are big fuzzy poodle moth-inspired things and while cute, it got stale as heck after a while. What I want is a Lokix-style Tokusatsu fox, or a fox with more than four legs or a scorpion tail or just SOMETHING other than 'fuzzy moth but with dog legs'.

Wouldn’t be too out there if it’s the first mega we see. We know they wanted to do it on ORAS and gave up. Now they have had like 10 years to think of a good design for it lol.

ORAS powercreep was kinda ridiculous.

Like Primal Reversion was cool from a lore standpoint but from a gameplay standpoint it also served as an excuse to make it so Primal Groudon/Kyogre didn't take mega slots. That was incredibly busted in its own right but just got overshadowed by Mega Ray-Ray.

Then you add that all three had broken abilities too and it's like, man, Mewtwo barely had a chance to enjoy its ugly new Megas before getting power crept in the same generation.

That's what he gets for looking lame unlike Cracked Groudon and Kyorge. And we established Rayquasa NEEDED to become Shenron.
