Traditionally, I always pick the Fire starter, but the Flaming Poop attack didn't seem appealing to me, so I picked Piplup.

Piplup first, cause it looks awesome. And I beat the game with it, and got bored of the game after I beat it, then a couple months later I started with chimchar and play it for around 2 weeks and had 4 hours on the game and forgot about it. then a week ago I restarted and chose turtwug and have a little over 4 hours on it.

I started with Turtwig. And I'm glad I did! ^_^

Hadim Sinan Pasha April 2nd, 2008 2:50 AM

zooyorskater:wow, 4 hours in 1 week. that's a lot. i only played 42 hours, and that's with a 3 day camp.

backontopic(back on topic, not a user):i want to start off with Chimchar instead of Turtwig now because the speed of Torterra disappointed me a little but then again, he has so much power. I thought Chimchar looked a little weird, but now I've realised they all do. Ah well, I'm happy with Torterra and for those who aren't sure who to start off with, I can advise you not to chose Piplup as Water/Steel(Prinplup/Empoleon) don't go too well together.

Omg so many votes-i havent been in this forum in a long time.

Heather April 4th, 2008 3:50 PM

I started with Chimchar because my freind told me to get it and that he would just trade me a Piplup. So I listened to him.

Shuriken236 April 4th, 2008 5:11 PM

Chimchar just cause I like fire pokemon the best.

Flan April 4th, 2008 6:15 PM

I chose Turtwig first, on my Japanese Diamond.
And then once my English Diamond arrived, I chose Piplup.
I bought English Pearl a month later, and chose Chimchar.

CrystalFlow April 4th, 2008 9:45 PM

Diamond: Piplup

Pearl: Chimchar

I originally started with piplup coz I thought it would evolve into the fast one of the three but hated the last evolution so much so then I started with Chimchar and thought it was okay. I have yet to try it with turtwig but it's my favourite of the three ATM. I thought the newest 107 pokemon weren't very traditional pokemon and started to get less original. The older games didn't have the pokemon of time or the Pokemon of nightmares, they just had legendaries that were just there for no reason.

Well, discluding my first Blue version (which lost all it's data thanks to me being a little kid who let the big kids mess with my game via a game shark) where I started with Charmander, I always start with the water type on my first time around, and Diamond was no exception. If a third game in the D/P set ever comes out, I'm planning on going for Turtwig.

As for what I think of the starters, I love everything about the Turtwig line. Absolutely nothing wrong with it in my book. As far as Chimchar's line goes, it's okay... but also a Torchip ripoff. A good starter, but I would have liked something... new. :D;;; The Piplup line is alright, though Prinplup has gotta be one of the ugliest things I've ever seen. Still, I love it.

Uh er sorry if that offends anyone, just telling it like it is :(

Watch out for that jet Metang! April 5th, 2008 10:12 PM

Daboys121 April 5th, 2008 10:46 PM

I picked Piplup for some reason, I'm not sure why, maybe penguins are just cool.

Hyperz April 5th, 2008 11:21 PM

I started with a Piplup, and I didn't fail!

Cyberboy April 6th, 2008 2:25 AM

I started off with Piplup because I saw his final evolution and it looked amazing, but then once I got my swampert from diamond I forgot about him.

Felice April 6th, 2008 4:09 PM

Piplup I think water is the best out of fire and grass

Typhlosion50 April 7th, 2008 6:33 AM

I started with a CHimchar with a brave nature

Divine~Deoxys April 7th, 2008 6:42 AM

I started with Chimchar but i think that Torterra and Empoleon are mint. Each starter can take out the other coz fight good on Empoleon, Empoleon learn Drill Peck an Torterra learn EQ
