Oh.
Alright.
Tells you how good my sense of humor is :lol

Or how bad mine is...

Why does everyone hate the Fire/Fighting Starters?
Sure they have four weaknesses, but they all have 6 resistances.
Is it general move sets?

I've been playing Pokemon for like all my life and I still don't really understand the technical side to it all. However recently I met a big fan at University and he goes on at length about this stat here and this figure here and I'm just thinking like, isn't turning Pokemon into a numbers game both missing the point and making it less fun?

All I see is that I am fighting a bin bag with an icecream and that is awesome.

No, it's because we have three of them.

After just two, the novelty of it being a starter's type combination wore off. It's a desire for something different that leads to the hate.

Its not just three either, its three in a row.

What ZeoRangerV said.
It's not the mons, it's not the type specifically, it's that they've given us them 3 times in a row.

To put it in perspective, Meganium and Sceptile are the only other two starters who shared a typing two generations in a row.*

*Not counting base forms.
