What starter will you choose?

[Jster786]

Post your favorite starter and why.

 

[Blivsey]

Chose Piplup in Diamond, so I suppose I'll use Turtwig this time, as it's definitely my next-favorite. Infernape just looks ugly.

 

[scurry13]

looking over the gyms, I think I'm going with turtwig, and transfer over eggs of chimchar and piplup (got those ready in my PC on diamond, thank you ditto!!!) one question. do special even pokemon (ie magmorter and electrivire) suffer from the badge restrictions like traded pokemon do? (where they don't listen to you)

 

[Meganium Ex]

On Diamond, I started with Turtwig, but prior to I restarted my game to get Chimchar and Piplup to trade them back over (my brother bought Pearl). This time, though, I think I'll simply start with Chimchar and catch new Pokemon like Roselia and Houndour.

 

[Dragon Rules]

Piplup,since I'd chose Chimchar in Pearl.

 

[Toastybob]

Piplup, because I chose turtwig in Pearl.

 

[mrglowy]

Chimcar because i love him because i love monkeys and he is cute yes i am a male and i said that

 

[Penguin888]

Probably Turtwig. Then transfer Lickitung over.

 

[leon25270]

I'm going for Turtwig. S/he is like Squirtle, except s/he is a Grass-type and s/he will become part Grass-type later on...

And I should try starting with a Grass starter for once.

 

[hello moto]

Choosing Chimchar, I like the mean backsprite of infernape. But i'm sending some pokes from diamond so i might not end up raising the chimchar.

 

[Hyper Chibi Absol]

Well... Chimchar's not my favorite but I already picked Piplup in my Diamond version. And of course I won't pick Turtwig. :/ Not cute enough.

So... Chimchar'll be my Platinum starter.

 

[NinjaBaker]

I have always chosen the water type in every single game so Piplup ;393;

 

[Visual]

Probably Turtwig because I chose Chimchar in Diamond. Since there are so many Water Pokemons in the game, I don't feel like choosing Piplup.

 

[Babey_blue]

piplup because he's so cute!
*hugs piplup!*

 

[~AussieWonder~]

Its simple:
Diamond: Turtwig
Pearl: Infernape
Platinum: Piplup

This is how I'v done it since RBY, and its worked out pretty well.

 

[Yarken]

Turtwig all the way. Bast typing when it evolves!

 

[skillwise]

i choose piplup in diamond and i regret it, ill go with chimchar (there aint enough fire types till after the elite four) and ill trade a turtwig and a piplup over to it

 

[JD]

Uhh Chimchar since I picked piplup in diamond and turtwig in pearl so and plus he is awesome!

 

[Zera]

i chose piplup, but thats just until i can trade stuff over.

 

[halloweenghost]

on thus,.this journey back through Sinnoh, I will choose Chimchar as i chose turtwig my last
