  • I don't remember which starter I chose while playing R/S. I've completed Emerald with all the three starters, I chose Treeko first, then Mudkip and finally Torchic.
    I don't remember my starters on FR/LG either. o.o'

  • When I first started Ruby, I chose Treecko. She was my first level 100, and she's now a Sceptile and in my Diamond. On FireRed, I chose Charmander. I evolved him into Charizard raised him to about level 80-90, but being a curious kid, I used action replay on my game to see what I could do. All my Pokemon turned into bad eggs, hahaha, I was so stupid. Oh well.

    I wasn't a big fan of the Gen III starters. I usually pick Treecko though, if only because I like Grass types over Fire and Water types.

    In FR/LG I went with Bulbasaur at first. I figured I'd run my first run of the remake with a remake of my original team and see how it varied. Bulbasaur still stands as the best starter in my book.

  • Bulbasaur and sceptile. I've never reseted my emerald or ruby, but my save got corrupted twice on fire red... weird.

    I choose Bulbasaur and Treecko, It's not that I love Grass types, I find them unique.

  • I went with:

    Ruby: Chichic (Torchic, now Blaziken)
    Leaf Green: 1st run - SQUIRT (Squirtle, now Blastoise); 2nd run - Bulbasaur (traded for a Pikachu early on for a "Yellowesque" feel.
    Sapphire: OCEAN (Mudkip, now Swampert)

    Also, Water types rule. :)

  • i choose squirtle and torchic as my starter. :) squirtle is just awesome, and i have been selecting it as a starter ever since. Torchic on the other hand, i simply find it powerful.

  • In Sapphire Version, I chose Torchic because I found it unbelievably cuteeeee ;D

    In Leafgreen Version, I chose Bulbasaur because too many people choose Charmander, but I didn't really like Squirtle. =/

    LeafGreen Bulbasaur mostly because thats who I used in Red when I was younger.

    Emerald... I am not real familiar with the Hoenn Pokes so I did a little research first and found out Mudkip had the highest stats in their final evolution so for the first time EVER I went with a Water Pokemon.

  • I chose Torchic in Ruby because it's adorable little face captured my heart. c:
    In FR I chose Charmander because I thought having a Charizard would be awesome, but the second time around I chose Squirtle and ended up liking it better.

  • I tried Torchic and Treecko in Sapphire but I didn't like them. I chose Mudkip this time but I'm not using it because I'm doing a random Pokémon challenge but I might Pal Park it over to HG :D

    My only playthrough of LeafGreen [borrowed it from a friend] I chose Charmander :)

    Bulbasaur for fire red(might have been leaf green) and I still haven't played through the entire game yet.
    I'm almost positive that I choose mudkip for sapphire. He's adorable:)
