  • I chose Piplup.

    Most of the time, Water types go well with completing the story with ease IMO.


    If that's not the case, I would've chose Chimchar for competitive battling but I can trade for 1 and breed/train 1 later in the game anyway.

    hmm the fire type chimchar is what i started off at the first, probably because knowing how torchic, which also evolves into fire/fighting is that strong. It would stand me in good stead with a such a gd pokemon early in the game, considering before i started playing i heard that there are few gd fire types readily available in the game.

    i started with piplup as he had the advantage always when he was leveled up a little bit cause when he hadlearn peck he could beat turtwig and when he had learn bubble he could beat monferno

    Piplup.

    Reason 1: Empoleon's really good.

    Reason 2: Cute little thing.

  • Piplup was my choice, simply because penguins are awesome.
    Plus his final evolution was Water and Steel, which is a good combination.
    I was going to go with Turtwig, but he seemed a little slow.

  • Me and my friends made a deal we would all get different starters. I was the last one to get the game so I was stuck with Turtwig. But I don't mind I love the good old turtle. :D

    I always chose turtwig whenever I start a new game on diamond/pearl but I use to always pick the water ones in past generations. I don't know why I changed my mind to grass.

  • My first play through I went with Piplup...really just flipping a coin between it and Chimchar. I personally dislike all the 4th gen starters and imo the 1st and 2nd gens had the best starters
