It might look something like blue fire or maybe something that is separated by two halves. Sort of a yin/yang creature, except with fire and water instead of light and dark.

or they can make a pokemon with 2 heads, 1 is Fire and the other one is Water =0 or no?

I always keep my starter and i always use him/her. I always make my starter the strongest in my team as well. I seem to like water type starters for some reason. Maybe because they learn ice moves(to beat grass of course) and some may learn ground type moves such as earthquake(to beat electric).

<1>Infernape. Fire/Fighting -Vs.- <2>Blaziken, Also Fire/Fighting

Both have their Strengths and weaknesses.

<1> Strengths
Can learn Grass Knot. (a very helpful move)
Close Combat
U-Turn
EarthQuake


<1> Weaknesses
Cannot use Fly-Type moves.
Is more susceptible after CC.

<2> Strengths
Brave Bird
Blaze Kick
Poison Jab (again, useful)


<2> Weaknesses
Cannot learn Grass Knot, harder to defeat Ground or Water types

They arent Copies. Hopefully, Neither will Pokabu.
By loving so many, I have touched their lives and helped them rebirth as well. To be strong is to instill strength in another.

also Blaziken learns Upper Cut so he/she will defend it self when a pokemon uses fly

Yes the movepools and stats are different. that's expected. however, it gets a little old after the third of one single type pops out.

Though honestly we're looking at the third pure water type starter. It's a little less boring, though, because Blastoise has tankish stats, while Feraligatr is a sweeper. Then we have different dual type starters before the next pure water sweeper starter.

Yes I do. The only exception was SS; where I use my Emerald starter. And its still technically my starter, so then it comes down to what your definition of a starter is. They usually have good movepools and growths, as well as it just gains sentimental value over time.
The thrill in playing a game does not come from our chances of winning. It is the weight and pressure of losing that fuels our fascination. It is why people challenge, why they gamble and why they compete. The adrenaline that comes from defying defeat is what motivates us.

Yeah, apparently the starters have average stats, though :/ I don't get that, because my grovyle could always beat fire-types 5+ levels ahead of him.

Well, being trained, it got enough EVs to surpass the in game pokemon...
No one can go back and change a bad beginning; but anyone can start now and create a successful ending.
If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If it cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?

Currently playing Pokemon XY/ORAS/Shuffle and Clash of Clans and testing out PokemonRevolutionOnline and Dragonmon Hunter....
Also, forum notification emails are not getting in my inbox... again...

I kind of like Grovyle better too, but that's just a nitpick. Much like how I'd rathe rthe final evolution of Totoile was Croconaw instead of Feraligatr because Crocodiles can grow bigger and be more aggressive.
