Unlike other character articles I've read on this wiki, which don't specifically state that a character is a poor alternative to another character, this article compares Ivysaur to Olimar to a pretty negative extreme, stating that the former is a "poor version of Olimar." To my knowledge, there isn't supposed to be any bias anywhere on the mainspace, so I was wondering if anyone else thinks that the last two sentences in the attributes section should be removed?

:Bias largely applies to areas shaped heavily by opinion or personal ideology. For example, this wiki does not evaluate whether Brawl or Melee is a better game, as "better" is variable in terms of views by different players. However, certain things can be ranked objectively. For example, it would be absurd to treat Ganandorf and ROB's recoveries as being equal in comparison, under the guise of neutrality. As discussed on the [[tier list]] page, it is more than possible to extend these objective rankings to overall characters. There's room for discussion on the actual placement, but it makes sense to have the wiki content reflective of overwhelming consensus. In this case, the Olimar and Ivysaur comparison can be useful for evaluating each character's strengths and weaknesses, and there are objective reasons for considering Olimar to be a superior character in competitive play.
