For Leafgreen: Charizard, and for Firered: Venusaur
........I just lol'd because I just noticed it xD

And as for Sapphire and Emerald; it varies on my mood, I have a really, really hard time choosing. Its usually between torchic and treecko.

I essentially choose the fire type starter for every game since there are less fire types than water and grass types, and you don't tend to meet them until later in the game.

ive always used Torchic in my Sapphire game.. except for the.. second time. i used mudkip then. XD;
but i tend to restart pokémon games quite often, and picked Torchic again always.

for Leafgreen i pick Squirtle. but thats cause its my all-time favourite kanto starter, and i just love Wartortle. XD;

I picked Bulbasaur, Not because I love grass types because when the first time I saw this Poke, I've fallen in love with it, there's something special in it that makes me really want it so I chose it. ^-^;

I picked Treecko first in Sapphire. He just looked the coolset to me. I totally sucked with him, restarted the game, and choose Torchic. I ended up liking Torchic a lot better. I never did pick Mudkip, now that I think about it...

I've always picked mudkip in Sapphire. I haven't picked the other 2 at all when i start new games, but i eventually get myself the other 2 once trading became available (transfered a torchic and a treeko to my brother's ruby then traded them to my sapphire when i started another new game in it)

Same thing with Leaf Green, though here i picked bulbasaur.

One day out of boredom I decided to pick up my old GBA games and spend a little bit of time playing them. Turns out after I would believe 2 years, I still have my full teams in Sapphire, Emerald and LeafGreen.

For Sapphire I had chosen my favorite starter out of the Hoenn region which would be Torchic. :3 As for Emerald I chose Mudkip and iirc, I picked him for the main reason of taking on the Battle Frontier. As for LeafGreen I chose Charmander, since he's my favorite Kanto starter out of the three.

It felt so good picking up those games after a long while haha, but those are the starters I had chose in the three games long before.

Whichever colour the game was - LeafGreen and Emerald = Grass ; FireRed and Ruby = Fire ; Sapphire = Water. Sadly, I did not acquire a Squirtle :(... Until SoulSilver.

Ever since day one, I've always chosen the water starter Pokemon first.

Except in Diamond, I chose Chimchar :3
