There is always gonna be Pokemon people don't like...and these just happen to be the starters. I personally like them now, because as I said before if I can look past bidoof and that godawful Lickylicky I can get past the new starters, which look like they will grow into some cool new Pokemon. You guys have to look past the "bad" and see the good of what these games are bringing. Look at the protagonists! They are teenagers! And the amazing 3-d thats being implemented shows that the people over at Gamefreak are listening to us. I have a feeling Black and White will bring Pokemon back to what it once was popularity wise, among older an younger gamers alike.
