23. Froakie
Froakie is easily overshadowed by its final form Greninja, but I don’t think this is just an example of it getting cooler as it evolves, Froakie is a little bland. Obviously, the frog throughline is there, but when I look at Froakie I don’t see something that directly leads into the boss which is Greninja. The same can be said about Sobble, but at least Sobble has a concept that I vibe with on a molecular level. Froakie is fine. But it will be great at a later stage.
