There's more than just type matchups my guy!

It also has to do with Squirtle not being the only Starter in Sword and Shield without DLC or Home. Squirtle doesn’t make me angry.

Charmander

Guys. Water beats Fire. Why is Charcoal Salamander getting more votes than Squirrel Turtle

This isn’t a who would win thing though? Pretty sure it’s just asking for an opinion.

Exactly what ShadowKitsune said

I can vividly remember my first time seeing Pokemon content. Charmander just spoke to me. How can I forsake it?

Squirtle's good, but Charmander is great....

I like both, but charmanders gonna have more votes.

So i'll go for the turtle.

I love my water turtle. Idk just a turtle that shoots cannons appeals to me more than a flying fire lizard
