Description
''Which Pokemon Starter should You Choose? Charmander vs Squirtle. Austin vs MatPat. The SCIENCE! vs Game Theory! This one is going to be epic... and perhaps a little personal. In this episode, two Game Theorists face off as we debate a seemingly simple question: Is Charmander or Squirtle the better Pokemon? It is one of history’s Great Debates, and we will settle it here or reach a Deadlock! ''

''Also note that all sides of the debate are RANDOMLY decided, so the debater may be arguing for a side he or she doesn't agree with. We wanted to keep this as neutral and unbiased as possible. NO HATE!''
