    I actually don't pick fire starters very often but if I had to choose I would have to choose Cyndaquil! Cute little fire mouse plus I have a gen II bias hahah.

    In order though:
    - Cyndaquil
    - Charmander
    - Tepig
    - Torchic
    - Chimchar
    - Fennekin

    Again I don't choose fire types very often so I actually had a tough time after Charmander. 8(

  • Tied with Torchic and Chimchar, but I went with Chimchar because of not only how useful Infernape is, but its character development with Ash in the show.

  • Cyndaquil mostly for its evolutions, I'm not the biggest fan of cyndaquil but I absolutely adore quilava and typhlosion, so by proxy I like cyndaquil as well. Although it is rather cute on its own.

    And then I thought that was it for the fire starters I really liked, torchic came close but not quite, but after playing X for a bit, I fell in love with fennekin also. So adorable. So cyndaquil and fennekin would be my favorites out of all the fire starters.

  • It's close between Charmander and Cyndaquil. Since Typhlosion is my favorite fully evolved fire starter, I'm going with Cyndaquil. Typhlosion is such an intimidating-looking pokemon. Very cool.

    I've only ever used 1 Fire type, and that's Tepig. The only time I've used Tepig as the others didn't appeal as much. Mainly I've gone for the grass type, so...

  • I absolutely love Cyndaquil for being so cute and my first fire starter pokemon.

    I love his family's design, and idk why I always go for it when I am playing G/S/C and HG/SS.

  • Definetly Torchic, although Chimchar and Cyndaquil are definetly close favorites of mine. Chimchar was actually my first "true" starter (really because I started with my brother's Yellow game, who had already had some progress).

  • I will definitely choose Charmander. It's so useful when its fully evolve and plus, the mega form of it looks cool. 8)

  • Cyndaquil and Charmander :) I went with Cyndaquil (pleasantly surprised to see it's winning in the poll) because I just have fantastic memories from using one on Pokémon Silver, it was the first fire starter I ever used and for that reason it remains my favourite :)

    Precious you are so cute. Cyndaquil was my first Johto starter in a region I've played through a hundred times by now and it has always been really reliable. Adorable, too. Fennekin is a close and I've enjoyed using one in my unevolved run in X/Y. Overall I'm not a big fan of the fire starters though... ;(

  • Torchic! is my favorite fire type starter, i like its evolution which made him a dual type Pokemon, i loved its appearance and attack stats it's also good looking Pokemon though that made me liking that Pokemon so much.

  • The Fire type starters have grown on me a lot recently. Cyndaquil was the first ever starter I chose (I got a pre-owned Blue, with the game already complete). Despite this though in every game since my starter has always been the Water-type. Blaziken, Infernape and Emboar were always so cool to me though and eventually I came around to loving (almost) all of the starters equally. Delphox appealed to me just for the nickname the one you receive post-game in X/Y (if you chose Froakie. 'Kinniekins.'

    Anyway enough of me rambling! My favourite Fire-type starter is Chimchar. I just love the line to death now, and is probably in my Top 3 along with the Mudkip and Squirtle lines. Their design for one is amazing, and the moveset, competitive viability, versatility etc. make this my favourite!

    That was really hard since I love them all but I went with Chimchar because Infernape is an extremely useful pokemon. :3
