Hi There! I feel like there's another review of a pokemon is coming, and its from... the one and only D'Zed.
I'm thinking of reviewing three well known pokemon. I think all of you know these guys. You wanna know who they are? They are none other than "The 3 Starters Of Pallet Town". You know, Bulbasaur, Squirte, and Charmander. These three are the first pokemons of the Pokedex [Bulbasaur #1, Charmander #4, Squirtle #7]. I wanted to review these guys because they are the one who made life to my childhood, and this also maybe the hardest question that I answered. "Who would you like to pick?" I had a very hard time choosing my starter pokemon on my first time of playing pokemon and I had to choose from these guys.. Well, lets start the review.

Staring with their Moves Learned by Leveling Up
Note: This attacks are from 5th Generation
Bulbasaur:
Start- Tackle & Leer [Pretty much the same with the other starters, one is a daming dealing attack and the other can lower the foe's stats] [But I don't even use the attacks that lower the enemy's stats, I only use damage dealing attacks like this bulbasaur's tackle, and I know most of you guys also do]
Lv3- Growl [Same with Leer but this time lowers the foe's attack stats, I also don't use this one]
Lv7- Leech Seed [This one can can your life at some point of the game, you deal damage to the foe while also sapping some of its health]
Lv9- Vine Whip [Finally! This is the first grass type attack that you can do to your enemy. I know that this is not that strong, but it's better than tackle, right? And I always end up using this attack for every fight I do]
Lv13- Poison & Sleep Powders [Two useful status changing attacks. This is really useful if you ask me. I don't have much comment to this one]
Lv15- Take Down [Meh, really strong attack but really strong recoil too. I don't like risks, so I don't use this. I like headbutt better]
Lv19- Razor Leaf [Slightly better than vine whip and has more critical hit chance, so don't be surprised if you often get critical hits from a Razor Leaf. I didn't knew that leaves would be painful]
Lv21- Sweet Scent [It's sweet!] [Lowers Evasiveness]
Lv25- Growth [I like this one, raises 2 stats at once, Attack and Sp.Attack]

Charmander :
Start- Scratch & Growl [Already said]
Lv7- Ember [Your first fire type attack. This attack is pretty strong for his level I guess, and this attack also burns up most of the pokemon on viridian forest (Not Literally)]
Lv10- Smoke Screen [Lowers Accuracy. Nothing else]
Lv16- Dragon Rage [You wont get this attack I guess, because at this point, your charmander would likely be evolved already]
Lv19- Scary Face [Who thought that a cute little charmander can do a scary face?]
Lv25- Fire Fang [*Bites Neck*]
Lv28- Flame Burst [Kinda Over Powered, you think?]
Lv34- Slash [Meh, nothing too much with this]
Lv37- Flamethrower [Keep away from reach of children]
Lv43- Fire Spin [No comment]
Lv46- Inferno [Bwahaha.. I wan to see this one]

Squirtle:
Start- Tackle & Tail Whip [Already Said]
Lv7 Bubble [In pokemon TGC, this could cause confusion. I don't know about other pokemon games]
Lv10 Withdraw [This is a good defensive move. Increases user's defense by one. Plus its water type]
Lv13 Water Gun [Now we're talkin'! This is also a great move by squirtle. I use this attack in battling Brock. Then I defeated his onix in 2 turns, who would've thought of? that]
Lv16 Bite [Ouch! Wait, Squirtle has teeth?]
Lv19 Rapid Spin [Be careful, you might get dizzy. Good move for freeing yourself from a wrap, constrict, leech seed and other move like that. And I think this has no other purpose]
Lv22 Protect [Holly Cow]
Lv25 Water Pulse [Slightly Over Powered, I think]
Lv28 Aqua Tail [Is this the water version of Iron Tail?]
Lv31 Skull Bash [Hard Headed, LOL]
Lv34 Iron Defense [You said it! Turtles are tough]
Lv37 Rain Dance [You want rain? Call Squirtle!]
Lv40 Hydro Pump [Fire? That's why there's the Squirtle Squad!]

Moves Learned by HM's
Strength (Charmander & Squirtle) [Can be used to push away rocks that are blocking the road] [Who would've thought that these two cuties know how to use strength]
Surf (Squirtle) [Lets try riding him]
Cut (Bulbasaur & Charmander) [To cut of specific trees and short grasses]

I think Zigzagoon is more helpful than these 3. Zigzagoon can learn all of these. Anyway, they are still helpful.

Moves Learned by TM's
I'll give my top 4 TM's for each pokemon.. Because I don't feel like typing long posts.
Bulbasaur:
Body Slam [Has decent attack damage and can cause paralysis]
Solar Beam [*Charges* A very strong attack that can cause massive damage.. *Fires*]
Mega Drain [Another draining machine.. Really helpful if used on the right opponent]
Rest [This Again, this is a really good move for long battles. You can regain health for free and without using any potions.]

Charmander :
Sunny Day [Who hates a good sunny day? Anyway, this also increases Bulbasaur's solar beam]
Fire Blast [Has 10% of burning the target.. There would be no more effect except this]
Rest [Again, Again, And Again... Read above. LOL]
Aerial Ace [Zooms through the skies and attacks the opponent (At least thats what I think)]

Squirtle:
Blizzard [*Chills* A really strong attack.. And can freeze opponent]
Dig [Come on..]
Rest [And Another]
Bubble Beam [Good Old attacks.. Nothing can beat them.]

Graphic Designs:
Simple yet awesome! Even with few details, these pokemon still is powerful and cool. The color scheme is plain, and you understandable. They drawn this with love, so I think its awesome. All simple art are good.. "SIMPLICITY IS BEAUTY"

Stats:
Bulbasaur:
HP- Average [Average, but needs more upgrading]
Attack- Average [Meh]
Defense- Average [^Look Up^] <-- It means Meh.
Sp. Atk- Good [Also perfect for its current level]
Sp. Def- Good [Perfect For it's level and evolution state]
Speed- Average [Isn't really that important for Bulbasaur. But you can increase this by letting him himding a quick claw]

Good In Sp. Attack and Sp. Defense

Charmander :
High in speed and Sp. Attack stats
Others are some where close to Bulbasaur's

Squirtle:
High Sp. Defense and Defense
Same goes for this one's stats

Tactics:
If you want a team consisting of these three.. You should use above moves I said in the TM's section. These 3 are good fighters, so you won't have too much trouble with them. But good luck in your HM's cause they can't learn much HM's

Wrap Up:
This 3 starters from the town of Pallet is really fascinating. With different professions (I mean stat difference), they still work perfectly together. And if you can be able to evolve them all to their final form, you could be some where close to being unbeatable.

Here is a cool pic: Enjoy!!
Sorry if this was too short.. I would try increasing my word count next time.



Did I forgot some sections? Please remind me by giving me feedback.. Thanks Guy!

The review was great and somewhat helpful, but you have to consider the fact that most of it looks as though it is copied off sites such as serebii. There were also times where you wrote the unnecessary. For instance when you were talking about stats you were abusing the brackets. Going for the yellow jersey?
As I said this is a good review but I wanted to just point out a few things!

MechaMento : I'm not going for any of the jerseys today. And I would try removing the brackets next time I make another post like this. Anyway, I didn't use serebii.. To be honest to all of you, I really did used a site to get some information, but most of the parts of this review came from me. Thanks for your response Mecha Mento, you're helping me to make my posts better..

D'Zed: I do not mind the brackets, it was just annoying when you did all of the "Meh" and the "Look up here" and also the "it means meh", that is just not needed.
So did you copy and paste the info? You could get Disqualified from the Tour de Vizzed or possibly a ban but you were not abusing copying if you were, it was only minor so you should be fine.
What are you going to review next? Be sure to let me know

MechaMento : Just to make it clear, I didn't really "copy-pasted" this review. I just used the wiki site to know the complete TM lists that each pokemon can learn.

Anyway, I already finished reviewing Abra https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=66943 a few hours ago, so I still don't know who to review next. Do you have any requests or suggestions?
