I'd have to disagree with Blastoise being a worse fighter. It's got a pretty good range of attacks, being able to learn the most powerful water-type moves, and then back it up with some good fighting/normal moves.

Blastoise is definitely destructive.

Blastoise is my favorite Gen 1 starter, Charizard is my second, but he's my least favorite design. Venusaur is my favorite design for any starter.

Or for those not acquainted with weaponry(though everybody knows what a sword and shield is,I'm referring to a dirk) another good example would be a Panther and a Galapagos Giant Tortoise. Those that's preposterous,as those two would never meet naturally as they quite obiously live in seperate environments.
But on the topic of First Gen Starters,I like:
1.Charizard
2.Blastoise
3.Something that isn't Venusaur
No offense,but Venusaur is possibly one of my least-favorite pokemon. Of course,it was in Pokemon's early days, so if they completely re-designed the First Gen I would possibly change my lineup.

Since when has Virusaur been a pokemon. :rolleyes:

Personally, Venusaur sits on the line between like and dislike. On one hand I think it has an interesting design, although at the same time it also can appear somewhat ugly at times. Luckily for it at the moment its newest/current sprite falls on the awesome side of things. Of course though, there's also the fact that it's a victim of "the curse of the grass types" leaving it with a limited movepool. So as I said before, it's sitting on the line.

Victreebel doesn't only suffer from that. It also suffers from it's lack of good moves. As a Physical attacker, it kinda sucks to learn barely any good STAB Physical moves. Venusaur, begin a Special attacker, doesn't have that problem.

Hmm, I haven't seen this mentioned here yet, so I'll assume that nobody knows this.

So, you all know Tornadus, Thundurus and Landorus, right? Those three goofy-looking legendary weather genies that have almost identical sprites? Well, they've got new forms. Yes.

http://serebii.net/black2white2/forms.shtml

Tornadus is some kind of quetzalcoatl/amphithere thing, Thundurus is like a sky serpent and Landorus is a manticore.
