THE BIG 3:

Venusaur vs Blastoise vs Charizard

But not only that but all three of their previous stages.

Here we go:

Basics

HitPoints

    B    |    C    |    S
---------------------------
    1    |    2    |    1

Attacks

    B    |    C    |    S
---------------------------
    1    |    2    |    1
---------------------------
    2    |    2    |    0

Retreat

    B    |    C    |    S
---------------------------
    0    |    1    |    0
---------------------------
    2    |    2    |    0
---------------------------
    1    |    1    |    1
---------------------------
T=  3    |    4    |    2

Total
Charmander Wins!!! They all have the 1 retreat cost and so they all get 1
point. In Hp Charmander has 10 more so he wins the single point. But attacks
win it. Charmander can do 40 damage by turn 2 but Charmander has the
discarding thing while Bulbasaur can self heal in the process. So they tie
in that category.

Now onto the stage 1 guys.

Hitpoints

    I    |    C    |    W
----------------------------
    0    |    2    |    1

Retreat

    I    |    C    |    W
----------------------------
    0    |    2    |    1
----------------------------
    1    |    1    |    1

Attacks

    I    |    C    |    W
----------------------------
    0    |    2    |    1
----------------------------
    1    |    1    |    1
----------------------------
    1    |  3!!!   |    1
----------------------------
T=  2    |    6    |    3

Wow CHARMELEON wins by a landslide!! His attacks are the bomb. He also wins
the HP by 10 and 20 damage. But again the retreat are all 1 so they each get
1 point.

And the final round Stage 2

HitPoints

    V    |    C    |    Bl
----------------------------
    1    |    2    |    1

Retreat

    V    |    C    |    Bl
----------------------------
    1    |    2    |    1
----------------------------
    2    |    0    |    0

Attacks

    V    |    C    |    Bl
----------------------------
    1    |    2    |    1
----------------------------
    2    |    0    |    0
----------------------------
    1    |    2    |    3
----------------------------
T=  4    |    4    |    4

A three way tie !!! Venusaur dominates the retreat with having one less.
That can make a major difference. Charizard wins the HP by having 20 more
but 100 hp is not shabby at all. But Blastoise wins the Attack though, with
the quickest, and probably the most dangerous one of all. Let me explain
why. Blastoise can do a possible 60!!! damage by turn 2. At that early level
of the game you most likely be playing a weak basic pokemon that will die.
Both the other two you need 4 turns to charge up. That is why he wins.

Family totals:

    vL  |    cL   |    bL
--------------------------
    9   |    14   |     9

So the Charizard line wins with the over all but I over rule that descion
and AWARD the new KING of the Starting 3 as .... BLASTOISE.

He is one of the top cards in the game and is the only single card to have
an entire deck revolve around him.
