4th Gen Do you still have your starter Pokémon in your party?

[Black Yoshi]

No, I have finished the league and my Empoleon is now in my boxes for a couple of months.
EV trained pokemon ^_^.

 

[dragonarche]

yup i keep it in my team as a reminder as
all the good time i and my pokemon had
i only wish there was a way to move my
lv100 venusaw from pokemon blue version to my
ds pokemon pearl

 

[KRAL]

I picked Turtwig, raised him to about level 70 Torterra.

then Ditched him for Blastoise from my leaf green. (pal park)

after i got all the pokemon i wanted from my leaf green, i reset the game a couple times to get charmander and bulbasaur too.

 

[Ray Maverick]

Yeah,i still have it.Its a torterra.

 

[Leyt]

I usually keep my starter, and have in all previous games, but I did not this time. I just didn't like any of the starters or what they evolve into, and I only use Pokemon I like, regardless of how good another's stats may be. So, once I got my second Pokemon, the starter went into the PC.

 

[ronaldcheuk]

Yes, I often use Empoleon in battles, but I prefer to use my Palkia >.<

 

[Vance09]

I did for a long time, but then decided there were better pokemon. I would never get rid of it though, I keep it as a support pokemon in case I need it.

 

[polkop]

I still use my Infernape.
Even after 200 hours of playing, he still my stronger pokemon.

 

[Joltz]

I only use my starter when I'm not on WiFi. Infernape rocks, but still wouldn't use on WiFi.

 

[.Eevee-Chan]

I'm keeping it until I finish the game,I mean sure there's better Pokemon than Torterra,but it was my Starter and all.
[Aha I got attached] I might not compete it in the Battle Frontier though since it's not fully Ev trained. D:

 

[SceptileX]

My Infernape is always with me too!

 

[Giraffe]

Yes I do! My Infernape is Lv. 50, we're just about to fight the Elite 4

 

[Johnny590]

My Lv. 64 Infernape....:) (Haven't played much Diamond & Pearl lately xD)...Ahhh....There is NO reason for me to take him away. Of all the pokemon that were part of my original party after I beat the Elite Four, 3 remain (Infernape, Floatzel & Luxray)...the other are imported and Legendary.

Seriously, I feel its a crime to put your Starter in a box and switch it for some Legendary pokemon or some super powerful pokemon you got through a trade. D:

 

[Black Ice]

I switch it out from time to time, but I've used it in all the gym battles, the E4, and most of my Battle Frontier challenges. MixApe just owns.

 

[Pokestick good times.]

I always have my starter the strongest (and in my team, DUH) until after E4, then I level up the others ahead of it. For example, in Diamond, I just use my lv100 Torterra occasionally, my power-house is an EV-trained, multi-type mover lv 100 Mewtwo (sorry, couldn't resist ^^)

 

[ReyRey-Pyon]

I always keep my starter :3
hes not always my strongest pokemon (in terms of level, and over all strength) but i always keep him on my team

 

[codymr14]

i do still have my infernape in my party but i only use him if i really need too cuz i found a liking to my electivire and lucario
