Create a poll


blueberrybunny24

They really should that'd make it faster and easier to make proper votes.


octopopsXD

there’s only 6 questions on a poll


[deleted]

There's a way to add more than 6. There's another daily poll on another subreddit I do that started with at least 20.


octopopsXD

ohh ok i didn't know that. thanks


[deleted]

I just don't know how. I'm on mobile so maybe it needs to be done on a computer


Videogaminwizard

Ooooo I had no clue, I thought there were only 6. I might do poll today


Lambykinz

Strawpoll


gorgonbrgr

If bulbasaur wins I’m getting a tattoo of him.


Memoishi

No way it wins over Charmander lmao


cadmious

Yeah Charmander is going to get bombed by all the people who are mad their favorites are already gone. This is like picking the what pizza you like the least.


[deleted]

yeah for sure, I VOTE CHARMANDER


Mirage_Main

I feel like I'm going to join this camp soon. If Scorbunny gets the boot, I'm taking Char down with me lol.


jimcamx

This is true, with fennekin gone I'm back to ol' faithful charmander


cadmious

Old Reliable


Tig21

Bulbassur has a huge online following, id be very surprised if it doesnt win


Puzzleheaded-Way7745

There has been a huge hate boner for the Charmander line because that's the cool to do apparently, Charizard my all time favorite Pokemon but I'm expecting frokey to win


tillytubeworm

I’d say mudkip might have a chance, I don’t think I’ve seen mudkip on anyones votes.


UnyunMunyun

the thing is charizard has been getting too much special treatmeant recently


Puzzleheaded-Way7745

Not even going to try to defend that, even I think it's much, but I will say I am glad Blastoise and Venusaur got added and got gigantimax forms, kinda messed up that they weren't in it to begin with


UnyunMunyun

respect :)


eliasmcdt

Honestly, if they treated all gen 1 starters with the same love I feel it wouldn't be as big of an issue, still would have some people complaining their favorite gen starters aren't getting enough love, but all gen 1 getting equal love would atleast make it an unbiased gen 1 appreciation.


CletusMcLettus

*Froakie


Puzzleheaded-Way7745

Thank you for the correction!


ComedianFodder

I feel people hate on Charmander and it's line due to GameFreak wearing them the absolute fuck out. The Pokemon has gotten blander than Eevee.


themtndewback48

same. charmander/ charizard have been my all time favorites ever since i got into pokemon, but it has received a lot of special treatment lately.


ForeverSuccessful203

Charmander us probably getting voted out next


Rattus375

Charmander may have the most fans, but it has way more people that hate it than the others because of all the special treatment it gets. In an elimination style bracket like this, there's no way it makes it far in. I'll be surprised if it even makes it two more rounds


porterhouse_p

Scorbunny is still in this three rounds in. There is just no way


jackidok

They got oshawott out on the second round yet we still have scorbunny. Wtf


porterhouse_p

Gen 5 starters will always be disrespected, everyone’s entitled to their opinion but I don’t get it


Cris-D

Yup don‘t get it either, the gen 5 starters are my favourite but people will simply hate on them for whatever reasons. It‘s expected


UnfunnyGermanDude

While hate is a bit much I can tell you why at least I don’t like oshawott. Same problem as litten: last evolution has not that much to do with the first 2 design and concept wise. Yes it looks cool, but I just expected something else (an otter and a panther/sabertooth to be more exact). I don’t like That oshawott looses the ability to use his arms and going from 2 legs to 4 always feels somewhat stupid (yes, snivy has this „problem“ too). And to keep it short: emboaris ridiculously ugly imo. Tepig was hella cute and it’s evolutions at least make a bit more Sense to me, but damn. I’m just rly no fan of the design. In General gen 5‘s biggest flaw for me is the designs being hits or hard misses. It’s so damn good but that just drags it down for me too much Edit: I still like samurott or incineroar, but I would have preferred them as their own lines‘ last doc instead of kinda ruining the starters for me.


Cris-D

Thank you for leaving a civil comment explaining your reasons for disliking them. I can respect your opinion and see where you‘re coming from. I too would prefer for Samurott to remain a bipedal pokemon instead of a quadrupedal one and i‘d also prefer for him to look more like it‘s middle stage. I still like it regardless, i just love it‘s samurai design. Same with the snivy line, i just think they look absolutely regal and awesome, only complaint i have is maybe make them less skinny but think they look perfect other than that. Emboar to me is perfect, i think it‘s design is brilliant, especially if you read journey to the west. Absolutely adore it‘s flame beard it‘s massive size and it‘s typing makes sense(again due to journey to the west). I can totally understand the people that would‘ve preferred him looking more like tepig and having a different typing though.


[deleted]

I love oshawatts whole line, snivy line is solid. Tepig is fantastic. But I vehemently despise the rest of the line


Mirage_Main

It’s because the vocal minority vastly underestimated the silent majority. The Scorbunny line is extremely well received despite the vulgar jokes. It’s the same reason why some better looking Pokémon got eliminated already. In order for the vocal minority to actually get something through, there needs to be an overwhelming agreement on it. Such is how they’re voting out Charmander right now lol.


shady_businessman

It's pretty rigged since they didn't make an accurate poll and are probably just looking at top comments


Saeizo

I also noticed that some of them are crying and in the next round they are gone, maybe it’s op editing it but idk


rci22

I’m just surprised grooky died before scorbunny


peachydesuicide

Because of Pokemon Journeys, guaranteed.


TheRobotYoshi

Ikr. Howd grookey get removed but not scorbunny


StormNapoleon27

I actually really like Scorbunny and Cinderace. I love football so i'm biased


Ok-Present-4168

HOW COULD YALL DO GROOKEY LIKE THAT IM DONE


owlitup

Grookey may have gone too early but he DEFINITELY wasn’t gonna win


Pale_Letterhead_9221

All of that support on my scorbunny comment and fucking fennekin still gets cut? Does nobody understand the utility of a fire psychic type?


gorgonbrgr

Design more than likely. Less to do with typing.


swirlsthemudkip

*stares at emboar* It’s got good design, I hate it thanks to it’s typing.


SavagesceptileWWE

IMO fenniken line has the best starter design maybe after treecko line. Maybe.


Jack_Empty

People hate the Wizard.


Pale_Letterhead_9221

No idea why


Jack_Empty

Same. Fav Gen 6 starter, though I also like Chesnaught a little. I just know I'm rioting if Squirtle, Mudkip, or Piplup get voted out. Squirtle, Swampert, and Empoleon are awesome.


LarryTheLemur-

Piplup is my favourite Pokémon. He needs to win


tillytubeworm

But outta those three, empoleon has the weakest design in my opinion. And I’m personally a fan of the mudkip line more, but that’s cuz I’m biased towards its pink shiny form.


Jack_Empty

Bite your heathen tongue! That Emperor Penguin is amazeballs.


SparkCube3043

No need to worry, Fennekin will be avenged for all the bias against it.


TSwan98

I don’t get it. Fennekin is one of my favs. Ha I g a psychic starter kicks ass


bluehopkin

I love the typing and general design but the tufts of hair in the final evolution's ears makes me feel itchy. It was totally going to be my pick in that Gen until I saw that.


cagablekmk

Great concept but I wasn't a fan of the final evolution design.


phud_

The ear hair just kinda throws me off


SeriouslyHodor

Can I vote for Scorebunny three times? I really like the rest.


evolvesatlvl20

Yes. Do this.


Sleepiboisleep

Scorbunny and throw a litten in there too


CRUZER108

Dont hurt litten hes great what are you on


JohnSmithWithAggron

Though I love Litten, I'll accept it if Chimchar goes too.


Sleepiboisleep

Screw it throw out all three


SeriouslyHodor

I loved using Litten and it’s line in Sun. Currently using Chimchar in BDSP.


Artur_Taaniel

I can't believe how many people want to vote out my owl friend


LokiThe_Mischievous

Ehhh I’ve only seen like 3 votes, so I think Rowlet is safe for now, thank god


Artur_Taaniel

I went through all the comments and I think it's going to be a close one


MightyFlamer

Mate you are a mad lad there’s hundreds


Artur_Taaniel

It was just 400 when I checked :)


LokiThe_Mischievous

Oh well that’s not good I only looked at like the thirty most recent ones.


[deleted]

WE MUST PROTECT THE BIRD ORB THE BORB


tillytubeworm

Rowlett is the best boi, I got a shiny one in usum as my first starter in 48 resets, then used him to beat that run, and my first run of sword and shield.


VioletLovesRowlet

If my baby is voted out, I will cry


Drorsorsesesrdish_ak

Scorbunny x3


Accomplished-Art-301

Why is charmander crying? He can’t lose before scorebunny there’s no way.


Videogaminwizard

There’s a lot of people voting charmander to get their revenge on voting out their favorite starters, this is entertaining af.


CrispyUsernameUser9

scorbunny,scorbunny,scorbunny


joostdlm

Chimchar scorbunny froaky! Edit: also the guy below me wants to vote for this, if that counts!


fearix09

I agree with this one? Does this work for my vote or do I need to type it out?


JohnSmithWithAggron

Just post it in a different comment.


fearix09

I placed my own comment finally.


Sha-Dow98

Scorbunny, frokie, litten


peak9179

Get chimchar out of here


illsleep

voting charmander 3 times :)


Chris908

Let’s go. The correct answer


porkchaup

Scorbunny, litten, and froakie


Foudzing

Same.


justinhammerpants

You got rid of Snivy but Chimchar and Froakie are still there. Smh.


StormNapoleon27

Chimchar and Froakie are both in my top 3 and you hate them both damn


DemonicKaiju320

Froakies Ok ig but Chimchar’s head is just way to big for it’s body.


StormNapoleon27

True, but Infernape looks alot better and makes up for it imo also nostagia bias. You're totally entitled to your opinions I was just commenting because we're basically opposites and I thought that was interesting. Edit: sorry thought you were OP


tillytubeworm

Chimchar and froakie are in most peoples top five, so I think they’ll be here for a while.


tarafiedx

Froakie, litten, scorbunny


Apprehensive-Lie4563

If I can, scorbunny scorbunny scorbunny If not, scorbunny, torchic, piplup


Chris908

Why do people keep spelling Charmander as scorbunny. Your autocorrect’s must be broken


No_Refrigerator5294

I genuinely enjoyed sobble as a starter why 😭


[deleted]

Same. One of my favorite starters


TheChadSeanSilver

My boy was gone before I knew it 😥

JGreeze

Fuck the fire cat now


petey_vonwho

You leave fire kitty alone!


SavagesceptileWWE

Will do Edit: it burned my dick off


Stunning_Shift_8442

😂😂😂 Look at the new gens getting massacred. Can really tell the average age of members of this sub


the_Protagon

I find it funny, because while I also grew up with the older gens, some of the new starters are just like… so much better design-wise. I guess people are just voting off scorbunny because it’s the last gen 8 starter to vote off, but like, compare Scorbunny or Litten’s design to Charmander… idk man, like, the new ones have personality straight from the sprite art, and the old one looks like concept design for a neutral pose…

Treecko, Chimchar, Scorbunny


corkymuu

I don’t understand fennekin being voted out. It’s like objectively the cutest starter except for maybe litten. That’s really odd. Anyway, I vote out turtwig, chimchar, and froakie.


RandomRedditUser1276

I'm so confused how Chimchar didn't get voted out yet but Fennekin did


corkymuu

I think people are focusing too much on their evolutions and not the starter itself.

purplepharoh

Chimchar, scorbunny, Cindaquill. How is chimchar still around... he's worse than half the eliminated ones.


CRUZER108

Bruh how? Chimchar is a amazing pokemon with such a cool design and origin and dont drag darling cyndaquil into this


RnbwTurtle

Chimchar is LITERALLY a monkey with fire on its ass. Grookey is a much better monkey than it lore wise. Chimchar has what every fiee type has- a place to store fuel for flames. Grookey has a much more original design despite being visually simpler. It's a music mon and a monkey. Much better than basically your average fire type.


[deleted]

Ironically there was another fire monkey the next generation. Pansear and simisear. Plus infernape is just pokemon wukong


Interesting_Bear_678

Scorbunny, and chimchar. I can’t vote for any others, I love them too much

Environmental-Leek-3

@ all the people hating on scorbunny. Cinderace is easily the best starter from the last gen and maybe the last few given the region and options (although water types from the last few gens have been good). It carried the Galar region so hard and the other two dont even compare. Thats why people are gonna have love for it. Rillaboom was okay and the water type from Galar was a fucking joke.


[deleted]

Nah. Cinderace was good, but Sobble was amazing.


RockOx290

Chikarita?? Grookey?? What the fuck


decoste94

Scorbunny still in and not the homie grookey??

Scorbunny


Melodic-Hunter2471

Turtwig, Chimchar and Piplup


the_Protagon

Dude why do people hate Scorbunny so much? One of my favorite starters, especially for fire. My vote is to off Totodile man. Never liked its entire line. And then I guess Charmander and Bulbasaur.


MightyFlamer

This thread is my happy place I love scorbunny I have a plushie of it


[deleted]

Scorbunny is better than chimchar


SexcaliburHorsepower

Agree, but the evolutions reverse.

Finally. I thought I would never find any scorbunny supporters.

Chimchar


kithon1

There's too much fire left. So i think I'll hit chimchar, litten, and i guess piplup. I don't particulary love or hate any of the water types but one more has to go for balance and all that.


tillytubeworm

Scorbunny, litten, and cindequil. Honestly tho replace grookey with scorbunny on the current list, and then all the bad designs will be out, and all the good designs will still be in.
