>>58013035 They made sure to fix that with Empoleon. Every starter from gen 4 through PLA had at least 100 special attack, and the one that didn't in gen 9, Quackwhatever, bombed.

>>58013096 Oh, ok, you meant every WATER starter. But in that case the point is nonsensical anyways because grass and fire are special types as well, water is not unique in that
>>58012941 (OP) Blaziken and Swampert had physical types(Fighting and Ground) so one of the starters had to focus on special.

>>58012941 (OP) Because gamefreak hates us that’s why. They’ve had so much time to fix it but never did.
