Mostly Treeko and Charmander, their final forms are cool

For what ever reason I always start with the grass type.

Blue: Bulbasaur

Gold: Chikarita

Sapphire: Treeko

Pearl: (however I didn't have it very long, I just lost interest) Turtwig

RSE: I started with Treecko!
FRLG: Bulbasaur

I chose Bulba because that was my starter in my original blue game, and Treecko because I wanted to be different from my friends who mostly picked Torchic

I normally pick Squirtle for LG/FR but sometimes I'll pick Charmander. I rarely pick Bulbasaur though. For R/S/E I didn't really like the starters but I usually pick Mudkip/Torchic lol

In Emerald, I chose Treecko, but in accordance, I discarded it to choose another pokemon to act a my 'starter' pokemon.

Always Mudkip. Always. Swampert is my favorite Pokemon of all time, so you can see why. I don't think I've ever picked Torchic or Treecko.

As for FR/LG, I usually pick Charmander. I think I picked Squirtle once, though.

The first time I played FireRed, I chose Charmander, well, because he was the only starter I ever chose back in the old games. I never choose, NEVER, Bulbasaur; I dislike grass Pokemon. The second time, which was in LeafGreen, I chose Squirtle.

As for the RSE versions, I tend to mix them up; although I dislike grass Pokemon, however, Treeko is too cool to miss out.

Bulbasaur and torchic. I've always had a place in my heart for bulbasaur since my dad gave me a bulba plushie when I was younger. And I just thought torchic looked cute.

Most of the times I picked Charmander and Torchic. Blaziken is one of the good Fire Pokémon in RSE, and he's got good attacks (Blaze Kick & Sky Uppercut) that give him an advantage over a quite some types. : >
But, now and then I pick Mudkip or Squirtle. |3 I love those two as well, but Fire Pokémon have a special place in my heart. <3

Torchic and Bulbasaur. I played both games with all three starters, but for me those were the best. :) Also i love their look.

For R/S/E, I used to choose Torchic. Now I'm leaning more towards Treecko, because I got rather sick of using Blaziken XD

For FR/LG I chose either Charmander or Bulbasaur, since it's sometimes hard to choose between them.
