You know, the nickname “Water Bowser” just makes it more badass.

My two cents: Kamex is a much cooler name than Lizardon.
And the "fire-breathing dragon" isn't exactly unique. Damn near every Dragon-type can learn Flamethrower/Fire Blast.

I mean... I think being popular is a pre-requisite in order for something to be overrated. Mewtwo is popular, but he isn't overrated because he's legitimately quite unique in design/concept/origin. Charizard, on the other hand, is a fire-breathing dragon. How many fire breathing dragons exist in fiction? Oh, his tail has a flame on it? Revolutionary.
If you want to compare to his starter counterparts, a turtle with water pumps on its shoulders is a lot more creative. A plant/dinosaur hybrid capable of photosynthesis is quite unique. I guess they don't possess the mass appeal of a fire breathing dragon, though, which kind of goes back to my point.
In any case, I'm in the JP region, and I voted Green. Red was my OG Pokemon game and the love of my life, but Venusaur will always be my baby.

It's my obligation and duty to ruin anyone's childhoods that are built around Charizard.

It amazes me how similar blastoise and bowser are
But you also made me realize that charizard and Donald Trump are twins, they are EXACTLY the same

If Yellow was an option, I would have just chosen it instead.

I'm thinking about going Blue (EU). Even if Red was my first one I also had Blue and Blue has Meowth, Vulpix, Sandshrew. As to the rest the games are even and I refuse to choose a side simply based on colour or cover.
And when you try using a yellowstone it's just like "Nah."

Remember how Naughty vs Nice was evenly split on Twitter and how it was in reality at the final results of the Splatfest? It would be nice to have another Art vs Science split but now that seems to be nothing but a legend.

I chose Team Blue because Mega Blastoise will always be cooler to me than either Mega Charizard. Mega Blastoise losesone of its shoulder cannons, but now it has wrist-cannons! With mini-shells on them! That's pretty handy. Also, I use Clawitzer in one of my online battling teams, and I know full well how useful Mega Launcher is as an ability if you know what goes with it.
That being said, my favorite version, I would say, is currently OmegaRuby. They remade Hoenn and tied it into Kalos. That's really neat. The post-credits quest involving Rayquaza is also one of the most memorable events in the entire series, and that's saying something considering I get harder to impress very quickly.

Charizard was popular for one sole reason: The TCG and his huge numbers. Charizard didn't hold a candle to Venusaur or Blastoise in the Base Set in battle, but people were attracted to its 120 HP and 100-damage attack. Power creep's made Charizard even more useless with each passing set, but it came first.

I'll look out for pokemon-themed usernames. Renamed myself to "MissIngno.", haha. :D
