MissingNo Reviews: Squirtle line

Squirtle was always kind of ignored by my friends. But not me. I vowed to prove that the Water-type starter was not inferior to the others! So I always chose Squirtle when given the choice. I even did so for my XY playthrough!

Sadly, not everything works out the way you wanted. In light of recent reviews, I have realized something. Blastoise is mediocre. There! I said it! Are you happy?! But in all seriousness, Blastoise isn't what it used to be. He's always been a Rapid Spinner for your team to get rid of those pesky entry hazards. However, he is sadly outclassed by Pokemon like Forretress or Starmie. While the other starters have enjoyed their Mega Stone, Blastoise might actually be worse off with his Mega Stone (due to losing an item slot better suited for Leftovers). To be honest, the only things really going for it is its defenses and its design. I mean, c'mon. GIANT CANNON TURTLE.
