Ranking Every Pokémon Starter: The Ultimate Guide for Fans!

Ranking Every Pokémon Starter: The Ultimate Guide for Fans! Pokémon starters hold a special place in every trainer's heart. These trusty companions are with us from the moment we take our first step into the tall grass. But let's face it—not all starters are created equal. Some are absolute beasts, while others... well, they’re just kinda there. So, buckle up as we rank every Pokémon starter from best to, uh, "needs improvement." The S-Tier Legends: The Cream of the Crop 1. Charizard (Charmander)How could we not start with the OG fire dragon (yes, we know it’s technically not a dragon-type)? Charizard is so iconic it got TWO Mega Evolutions and a Gigantamax form. Talk about being the teacher's pet. Charmander’s journey from cute lizard to fire-breathing powerhouse is the stuff of legends. 2. Greninja (Froakie)A ninja frog with a tongue scarf. Need we say more? Greninja is sleek, powerful, and even made it into Super Smash Bros. Plus, its Ash-Greninja form made anime fans lose their minds. Froakie to Greninja is a glow-up we all aspire to. 3. Infernape (Chimchar)Part monkey, part martial artist, and all awesome. Infernape’s Fire/Fighting typing makes it a dual-threat, and its speed ensures it’ll usually strike first. It’s like Jackie Chan... but with more flames. The A-Tier Stars: Almost Perfect 4. Blaziken (Torchic)Blaziken walked so Infernape could run. With its Mega Evolution, it’s a certified powerhouse. But let’s be real—did anyone take Torchic seriously when they first saw it? Little fire chicken, we’re sorry for doubting you. 5. Decidueye (Rowlet)A ghostly archer owl? Decidueye’s design screams "cool," and its Grass/Ghost typing is unique. Rowlet’s adorable bow-tie vibe is just a bonus. Plus, it’s the only starter that looks like it’s ready to shoot a bullseye at the Olympics. 6. Swampert (Mudkip)Remember the “Do you like Mudkips?” meme? Swampert took that energy and turned it into pure strength. This Water/Ground tank is here to handle both electric shocks and internet jokes like a champ.
