What Pokemon Did You Start With?
So did you start with piplup, chimchar or turtwig?
Also can you tell me what you think of the three starters Rate My Thread Please. Thank You! |
I got all three, but I chose Piplup on my own cartridge, so
it didn't get boosted EXP. I ended up falling in love with Monferno because it looks adorable. http://pokedream.com/pokerep/images/sugimori/391.jpg |
I Started with Piplup because its very strong and its very good in defence.
|
Ahh I chose Piplup in Pearl and Turtwig in Diamond
|
Plz may you put turtwig in the poll please. Thank You
|
I started with Chimchar, mainly because I like monkeys. But it turned out much better than I thought.
|
yeh on my pearl i started with chimchar. at start it looked nooby then it looked like a pokemon that u start to get attached to in the game
|
i started out with piplup (like almost everyone else). it was really strong in the beginning but i began to use it less and less.
|
Well I started with Turtwig & now have a level 100 Torterra ^^
|
Congratz on your level 100 torterra!
|
started with piplup but around the time it evolved i grew bored with it and traded for a level 1 UT lapras :)
which i don't regret and my lapras is level 40 now :D |
kool. dont forget to put it in the poll.
Also if u need a piplup, i have one for trade? |
Well due to me being a water guy....duh of course I got piplup, little sweet thang :P
As for pearl I got oh yeah piplup!, lol. |

i chosed turtwig because i usually choose grass type pokemon.

and i like the water types too, that's y i picked piplup i guess im old fashioned.. i tried gyarados before i settled on lapras not a fan of the newer pokes i guess |
kool i hate grass type. it is one of the weakest types in my opinion.

i disagree, you shud make a thread for debate on that :) |
No thanks. it will be closed by moderators or moved. i cant be bothered. u can if u want.
|
I started with Turtwig. Ever since red and blue, I've always gotten the grass starter on my first time through the game. But the grass starter has also usually been more balanced than Torterra. I like Torterra, don't get me wrong, but the dual type of grass and ground doesn't do it any favors, and it has more of a weakness on the special side, both defensively and offensively. Kinda makes me miss my Bulbasaur...
|
kool, So you have never chosen a water or fire type starter before?
|
Of course. I still go through multiple times, I just can't help but hold tradition with always starting my first one with a grass type. To be honest, I was disappointed with all three of the starters this time. Infernape had the weakest defenses of any starter to date, nothing about Empoleon stood out except its nifty type combination, and you've already heard my complaints about Torterra. If nothing else, I love how Torterra looks. Like a little walking planet.
|
lol @ walking planet
yea the starters this time around make it easy for people to give them up and move on to the better pokes.. unlike the originals where your starter was ur little tag-a-long throughout the entire duration of your playing experience |
I agree with that completely, but after getting used to my Bulbasaur, Ivysaur and Venusaur being my constant companion and being able to keep up no matter what I fought, I can't help but miss the comradery. Call me sentimental, I guess.
*Pets a Venusaur on its abnormally large head* "Good boy, Thorn..." |
"CHIMCHAR! I CHOOSE YOU!"
Yeah... for some reason I always choose the Fire-type the first time (and I'm a girl) then if I decide to restart (after, of course, putting all my GOOD/favorite pokes on another cart) I choose the Water one, then play as a boy o_O Third time, I dunno... on Emerald (same region, so... 3rd time I guess) I was a girl and got Treeko so... |
start
I all ways start with grass tapy sometimes water.

I picked chimchar but now I regret it and wish ide picked the grass starter, I never liked the new starters but ill admit they've grown on me..
I still dont understand how people can abandon the original kanto starters, they are like family to me because ive known them for so many years and i cant help but have atleast one in my team. Even while I was playing through sinnoh my team felt empty withought charizard or Brute root.. |
Turtwig, I named him Gamera.
|
Nice name lol. and i would have chosen it but cause of the weaknessess its got i chose not to.
|
Chimchar, I always go fire. ;)
|
kool and btw lucario dont no OWNZ as you say he is good but not that good
|
Ever since RBY I've chosen the water starters (Squirtle, Totodile, Mudkip and their evolutions are my favourites). However I chose Turtwig first of all on Pearl because 1) my cousin chose Piplup... and 2) it reminds me of the great space turtle which hosts the Diskworld on its back (A Tuin). :]
More often than not I abandon my starter to the pokémon storage box, my current re-start of Pearl is going all Bug. :D |
well i had a piplup cause dawn had one even though im a dude it look pretty cool but i mainly use my lucario
|
I picked Piplup on Pearl, Turtwig + Chimchar on different Diamond games, both of which I've deleted... restarting with Piplup, as I don't like the other two, which I now know ;)
|
i chose piplup probably because i thought it was the cutest and it was pretty strong too
|
As they say. dont judge a book by its cover! lol
|
kool thats alright. i got all 3 but its cool
|
W00t. i finished pokemon league with a level 1 mewtwo lol. (hacked)
|
I choose piplup, but i never use it anymore, i think its a level 13 stored in my box or something.
|
I started with a Chimchar who is now one of the back bones of my team.
|
I got a turtwig,But me and my brother did some tradeing and I got turtwig and chimchar, I have always been a fan off the grass pkmn, turtwig chimchar helped me alot during the game but the retired from my team, there not ev trained.
|
Originally, I started with Turtwig but I restarted my game and went with Chimchar the second time.
|
I started with a Chimchar. I've evolved It now and it's a great sweeper.
|
hah
I started with Piplup; usually always drawn to the water starters. It also had great defense. once in its third stage. so i liked that too;D
|
I started with Chimchar but I have no knowledge of where it is >< It must be in one of my boxes or maybe I traded it :S
|
Piplup. I like using the Water-type starters. They make it so much easier to me and I don't have to worry about catching a Water-type to teach Surf to later on
|
Yeh ive noticed most of people play pokemon choose piplup.
|
Well, all but Johto had a Rock-type Gym first (Johto had Flying first)
|
I started with Chimchar but if I had known what Piplup evolved into at that point I would have chosen Piplup (I love penguins).
|
lol. same i would prefere piplup than turtwig
|
i wouldnt. i would choose chimchar because hes stronger
|
I'm not a fan of a big challenge. I want to go the easy way. I haven't taken Chimchar. All three are strong, it just depends who you ask
|
The woot defense
Piplup is the best starter for the begining. Chimchar is the best for the end. Turtwig is best all around.
Piplup is good for the start because of its defense and special attack and its resistances are phenomenal. Chimchar is best in the end for it has many weaknesses but many strengths as well and its speed attack and special attack are good. It also learns many great varying attacks. Turtwig is ok for both start and finish, but it also has the least strengths and the most weaknesses. It has high attack HP and defence and decent special defense. I chose piplup becouse its a penguin!!! Oh, the stats and stuff are only when there fully evolved. |
I used Chimchar and Piplup from the start. My brother and I did some trading so we each had two starters. I felt Empoleon did the best in the E4, since he resists Bertha's Sandstorm, a lot of poison from Aaron, and is super effective against half of Flint's team. Infernape didn't last long and only was helpful against pokemon he could OHKO. He's still a beast though.
Torterra was only easy to use in my Pearl because of his massive HP that allows him to use Wood Hammer many times without dying. |
kool nice one. but whihc one did you choose?
|
I chose Chimchar, since he was the one with the same ID as my trainer. Piplup came from another trainer ID.
|
Chimchar. It's a flaming monkey! =D
|
i started with a pikachu once!
:D |
I choose Piplup because of it's def.
|
I chose Piplup, it has great defense, and it's final form is part steel! That's awesome!
|
I chose Turtwig...because I just chose him...I like the colour GREEN to. So yea...
|
i picked chimchar because i always start out with the fire types
|
Turtwig.. its sooo cuuuteeee ><
Actually I took him because of his final form.. Torterra pwns >< |
I started with Piplup...but I got the other 2 starters a few days later so it didn't really matter either way. ^.^
|
I always pick the grass starter (Except in Silver when I picked Totodile), so I went with Turtwig.
|
I started with a chimchar and now is a Infernape
i always choose fire starteer pokemon except in crystal I choose totodile |
On my first run I started with Turtwig and it was really enjoyable. On my second playthrough I chose Chimchar and had a friend trade me Piplup and Turtwig.
|
I started out with piplup. Now it is an empoleon. Now I barely use it but i wouldn't trade it cuz I never trade my starter pkmn away. I don't know why I chose a water type starter. In the past games I usually chose the fire type starter except the very first time I played pokemon. I chose squirtle in blue version.
|
Jeez, reading this all, I feel slightly inclined to stick up for Turtwig and Torterra... but I guess some people just don't like grass types all that much.
|
I chose Piplup, for no outstanding reason really, other than some video I watched showed him using Piplup + evolutions, and them looking good, so thought I'd pick it. Not a fan of any of the 3 really though. I don't have my Empoleon anymore.
|
lol i choose piplup then when i got to jubilife city i traded it over to my diamondand breeded it with a ditto then took all the piplups around the elite 4 intill i got them to lvl 40 then by that time i had got 5 badges on pearl so then i traded them back now i have a team of shiny empoleaons becouse my ditto was shiny :-)
|
only 18 peeps that posted here have chosen turtwig. lol
|
ONLY 18 lol. cant beleive it
|
Go away Darkroz-noob-go away
|
kk soz. cya guys i aint gonna be posting in this thread anymore.
|
Good. Plus Dont come back.
|
i started with turtwig in my diamond but i dont use it in my team anymore, and when i got pearl i started with piplup.
|
I technically have all three starters thanks to a trading session when we first started playing. But my original starter was a Chimchar.
|
Hey your sig is too big. a mod is gonna disable it.

Either you were very lucky or cheated. |
I usually always start with the water type seeing as their my favorite tyoe.So yeah,i chose piplup.
|
Piplup! X3 I was enchanted by it's cuteness ever since I saw the images before the game release. XD I love my Empoleon for lots of reasons and always starts first in my Battle Tower stable. XD
Turtwig and Chimchar are really cute too, tho'. |
Yeh, the strongest type for now is water, thats why many people chose it.
|
I chose Piplup becuase it was cute. XD
But if Piplup was ugly, I would have chosen Chimchar probably. |
i chose chimchar because chimchar is awesome and then got it up to lv 30(did not evolve it) and went onto GTS and traded it for a lv 100 garchomp. im looking to trade for a monferno or infernape soon on the GTS...just gotta find the right deal
|
I chose turtwig because Torterra looks cool
|
I choose pokemon not because of the looks, because of the strengths it has got.
|
piplup. i only took a look at turtwig, then i chose piplup. it took a while to get past some bumps in the road, but it was a good choice
|
I chose Turtwig because it seemed to be the best grass pokemon I could get before the E4 (other than Roserade, but I dont like her). I could also have chosen Chimchar because he is the only fire type before the E4 (apart from Ponyta), but I almost never choose the water starter in pokemon games because there is plenty of water pokemon to catch. IMO a Water/Steel type is not as good as a Water/Ground type (like Swampert in Emerald) so I didnt choose Piplup.
|
yeh kool. not alot of people chose turtwig
|
Turtiwg is my one because its a very strong pokemon when it evolves to torterra.
|
Kool. i heard that you were booted out 5had0w 1ug1a-welcome back
|
I'm so sick of this question -_-"
Anyways I picked Piplup because I liked how the final evolution looked like :t354:TG |
if your so sick of this question why are u answering it.
|
I chose Piplup because he was cute, and because he had the best skills out of the three starters. GO PENGUINZ!!!!
|
i chose piplup too :D
penguins rock |
What is a Chimchar? A monkey? I dunno. Turtwig is a turtle, Piplup is a penguin. What is Chimchar? I like Penguins too. ^.^
|
i awlays choose a water type, (save for silver, because i though cyndaquil looked awsome)
piplup however, wasn't a good choice made by me. it rots in my box now.. |
I started with Turtwig. :D
|
Both Turtwig and Piplup were my starters. :3 I find them both adorable! I chose Turtwig for Pearl (my main game), though and transferred over Piplup from my Diamond.
I was originally going to choose Piplup as my Pearl starter, but I couldn't resist Turtwig. x3 I enjoyed having them both on my team. |
