Mudkip is the best starter Pokemon. This isn't up for debate. Squirtle, Cyndaquil, Popplio, are great Pokemon as well. And don't even get me started on Rowlet. But none of them are Mudkip. Mudkip isn't just the best starter Pokemon, but one of the best Pokemon across the board, right at the top with Lugia, Hitmonlee, and Flygon. Or so I thought. Over on Reddit, this belief has been shattered.

Taking to Reddit one insidious individual, using the "Change My Mind" meme format, pointed out that Mudkip just looks like Terrence and Phillip, aka Canadians, in South Park. As you would expect, this shocking discovery shot straight to the top of the popular Pokemon Reddit page, with fellow Pokemon fans noting they will never be able to unsee the similarities. In other words, with one Reddit post, Mudkip has been ruined and is now the second-worst starter, behind only that sleezeball Chespin.

If you don't want your image and pure admiration of Mudkip ruined, we recommend not looking at the Reddit post below:

For those that don't know: Mudkip is a water-type Pokemon introduced in Generation III that evolves into Marshtomp at level 16 and into Swampert at level 36. It's one of the three starter Pokemon of Hoenn available at the beginning of Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire.
