My arguments for why Mudkip and Bulba should fall out of the running:

 

Mudkip: That meme died a long time ago. it's time to let other starters hold the spotlight.

 

Bulbasaur: Genwunners. It'd serve those guys right if the ones they like would go away.

So, you dislike Bulbasaur cause of Genwunners? That's not a legit reason imo. You also dislike Mudkip cause of a meme? That also doesn't sound like a real reason. I think that the only legit reasons to dislike a 'mon have to do with typing/design and/or playstyle/competitive viability...

I agree that it's his decision making, but it is quite poor in my opinion. Deciding that you don't like a Pokemon because of what other people think/say about this.

Genwunners means Gen I hardcore fans that consider everything that isn't Gen I to be inferior (mostly moving via nostalgia).

That's actually legit. I love its design, but it's subjective.

they are ignorant silly people who ignore all generations of Pokémon but the first one. Dubbing them all to be inferior. Usually, Gen 5 is their prime target. My favorite one they pick on is Garbodor. Garbodor is not a well designed Pokémon but comparing it to Muk makes Garbodor an amazing designed mon.

Since you mentioned it, whoever badmouths Garbodor and Trubbish are asking for it.

How can anyone hate this adorable lil thing?

@Wolfox Jeah but Gen 5 is the Generation with a lot of worse designed Pokemons imo. I know there are expections that have amazing designs, but it also has a lot of bad designed ones.

 

@Jess Trubbish is cool, but the Evolution just sucks.

it has a number of bad gen 5 mons, but it does have the most number of introduced mons in general. So it's only natural. Granted genwunners tend just ignore the good ones and only focus on the worse ones. Example's being garbodor, the monkey's and Chandelure (because a haunted chandelier is bad? since when?)

@Wolfox but the design from Chandelure is pretty cool. At least i love it :)

And jeah Garbodor and the Elemental Monkeys just suck so hard.

Expand  

the example I gave are mostly the only ones genwunners focus on, ignoring things like Hydreigon and Bisharp that generally are better than the best gen one mon

but the best gen I mon is electabuzz and that one is the best of all pokemon ever created

 

joking aside, every generation has their good and less good designs. im usually more willing to overlook less creative designs from gen I and to a lesser extent II, because mons was still new back then. especially in gen I, even the creators themselves werent aware that what they were creating would be something that would stick for years and years. honestly, if you compare gen I mons design to, say, battle mechanics in gen I, the mons are really well made.

Perhaps, yet it doesn't excuse it in the slightest. Even if you're only making something without expecting it to blow up like Pokémon did, you always have to give it your all. Not saying they didn't in gen 1, but saying gen one is "excused", of only slightly, for the bad designs because it was the first and they didn't know it would get this big is plain wrong. you can't expect the beginning to be perfect but excusing it of its flaws because it's the first is probably as bad

Gen 5 introduced a lot of pokemon I like: reuniclus, bisharp, excadrill, lilligant, serperior, chandelure, volcarona, scolipede, leavanny, sigilyph, eelektross, mienshao, haxorus, durant... 

The only other generation that can compete with that is gen 3.

Gen 4 introduced this perfect motherfucker:

  Reveal hidden contents

Objective superiority, competing with it is futile.

 

Also Gallade, Gliscor, Honchkrow, Weavile, Glaceon, The Starters, Staraptor, Magmortar, Rhyperior, Giratina, Gastrodon, Toxicroak, Yanmega, Magnezone, Porygon-Z, Floatzel, Abomasnow. The list is huge. Only gen 2 and 5 can compare there.
