>Chikorita was the worst starter ever.
Treecko is worse in Ruby.
>Second to totodile at true 2nd gen since all water attacks were specials and his special was shit. Other than slashing, it didn't do that well either... he was also super replaceable by red gyarados.
Totodile is the strongest mon for Gen 2 in-game runs, and Feraligatr's Surf is as strong as Typh's Fire Punch, which will be Typh's best move until really late.
>Cyndaquil only had arcanine as a rival. every other fire types sucked and you needed him for the steel gym.
Growlithe can't even evolve until Kanto in GS, it is worse than all other Johto Fire-types. Magmar is the best non-typh one.
Ampharos despite being Electric covers everything Typh does, and so does any other mon with Fire Punch+Thunder Punch
Typh is only better than Feraligatr in HGSS. That's thanks to more accessible Fire Blast and early Choice Specs.
