hitmonlee because there's just something about getting kicked in the face by a giant thumb
I remember having arguments all the time anout hitmonlee vs hitmonchan

I always went for lee, only because hitmonchan looks like he is wearinga dress, although as my m8 pointes out lee looks like he's wearing a paper bag

Lee is better as the physical attacker, Chan is better as the special attacker

However, given that they're fighting types with high attack (and STAB), Lee is the better choice IMO

Shuckle surprisingly got used fairly often in competitive battle because of its insane defense.
DEFENSE
"The Defense stat determines how much damage a Pokémon receives when it is hit with a physical move. Shuckle currently holds the highest Defense stat among all the Pokémon in the game with 230. The average Defense stat is 70 for all Pokémon, and the average for all fully evolved Pokémon is 83."

SPECIAL DEFENSE
"The Special Defense stat determines how much damage a Pokémon receives when it is hit with a special move. Shuckle also holds the highest Special Defense stat among all the Pokémon with 230. The average Special Defense Stat is 69 for all Pokémon, and the average for all fully evolved Pokémon is 83."

Yep, that looks about right

ow really? Even though its attacks are pretty useless?
It was a status killer. So Toxic, Rest, and some other moves, possible bind and encore if memory serves correct.

Also, just saying, the best starter pokemon is ALWAYS the water type, reason being:
1. If you pick fire type, you're only good against: Bug, Grass, Ice, Steel (4)
2. If you pick grass type , you're only good against: Water, Ground, Rock (3)
3. If you pick water type, you can learn an ice type move, making you good against: Fire, Ground, Rock, Grass, Flying (5)

Water type is also weak against 2 types, while fire is weak against 3, while grass is weak against 5.

So, yeah, Water>fire>>>>>>>>grass

Venasaur however, is the best starter for competitive battling in r/b/y. Namely because it's the best opener (apart from Jynx), with Sleep Powder, Sword Dance, Body Slam, Razor Leaf.

I took my level 80 feraligator to solo the elite 4. I pretty much finished my first playthrough solely through totodile and his evolved states, so yeah I agree water type is the best
