We can always look to starters, but I don't think we should rely too heavily on them as a model either because well, they are starters. One good starter to look at, however, would be the Cyndaquil line. Although it is a mono-type, I think their stat spreads and movepools (vaguely) have some similarities that can be noted. Otherwise, I am kind of at a loss for what to compare Embirch and Flarelm to; we really are charting into new territory with this one.

What about the Lotad line? It's also a 3 stage family consisting of mixed starter types.
