Your Starter..... Well, Don't Wait to See Where I'm Going With This, Open the Thread
 
Nice title, hm?

Your starter, do you keep it with you throughout your journey or eventually put it in the computer?
I do the latter, usually :O

Euphoric Magikarp July 30th, 2008 4:30 PM

Just recently I decided to put it in the box, so I have another slot open for a Pokemon I like better :3.

BeachBoy July 30th, 2008 4:33 PM

I keep it with me, but... after the Elite Four, bye bye. :D

Sweet Candace July 30th, 2008 4:44 PM

I always start with the Water-type and it becomes my Surfer. When it reaches Lv. 100, I would exchange it for another Water-type

Depend on what I am doing.

Right now I put it away.

Guillermo July 30th, 2008 4:53 PM

I like too keep it with me. As it seems like the pokemon that helped me along my journey and was the first real companion i had in the game. Most of the time i usually pick a starter that can help me later on so i will keep it in there.

I have an obsession of making my starter an HM Slave. I use other Pokes that will be able to do what it does better.

Clark July 30th, 2008 6:31 PM

Depends on the Gen. In FireRed, I built a sturdy team of three Pokemon with Blastoise as a very important and necessary member. Jhoto, all I trained was my Typhlosion. Hoenn had a balanced team of six, with my starter included. And Sinnoh... I hate all three of the Sinnoh starters; Prinplup as in the PC as soon as I caught my Buizel. XP

Saryka July 30th, 2008 6:38 PM

Oh, my starter goes into the computer after the Elite Four 99.9% of the time. I don't want to say 100% of the time because sometimes I actually like to use it in battle... XD;;;

Blue Screen of Death July 30th, 2008 6:38 PM

I definitely keep it the whole time, no matter which version its in. the funny thing is the pattern of my starters. My order is Squirtle, Cyndaquil, Treecko, Piplup, or.. water, fire, grass, water. I bet in the next two generations (if they happen) I'll choose the fire starter, then the grass starter.

Poke_Vamp July 30th, 2008 6:41 PM

I usually keep it with me, but occasionally put it in the PC after the Elite Four ^^

Giblie July 30th, 2008 7:36 PM

I usually keep it with me but my Empoleon I put him into the computer sometime after the Elite4 because I just couldnt think of a good moveset. =)

Katnip July 30th, 2008 8:03 PM

Depends on whatever team I'm using, but mostly, I keep my starter in my team.

kissing. raindrops July 30th, 2008 9:12 PM

It's come to the point where I find all three Sinnoh starters are getting uberly boring, so I just ditch them.

World King July 30th, 2008 11:43 PM

A year ago, when I first got my Pearl, I traded it after 5 minutes for a... Guess what? *points at his Banner*

Lynnx July 31st, 2008 5:24 AM

I keep it with me, always. Occasionally I stick it in the PC to train some other Pokemon or hatch an egg, but it always comes back to my team.

Banjora Marxvile July 31st, 2008 6:24 AM

I only put my starter in the computer to leave room to train others. Only after the E4 though.

Percy Thrillington July 31st, 2008 2:12 PM

I normally store it in my computer once the storyline is completed and I feel like EV training a proper team.

Loved the thread title, by the way. Up there with Pokémon in the Bedroom and I need help killing people.

blossem577 July 31st, 2008 3:18 PM

i usually keep it in my team cuz... (im gonna sound sooooooo stupid) it makes me fell safe to have 2 pokkemon on my team... the rest are eggs... (eevee farm... but thats another story) my team is made of 4 eggs, fearow and empoleon

Aegis August 2nd, 2008 6:00 PM

I usually use it until I beat the Elite Four, but after that it gets stuck in the computer and only sees the light of day when I feel like breeding; and once it's done at the daycare, it's back to the PC :>

Shadowwalker August 2nd, 2008 6:04 PM

I usually keep my starter with me through my journey to help it grow since it is usuallly the strongest.

hothead August 2nd, 2008 7:31 PM

All of my starters are always with me in a game untill i get it to a certain level and then i get new pokemon to the level but then i get my starter right back and about 95% of the time my starter is with me

Phoenix_Mew August 2nd, 2008 7:58 PM

It depends on the starter for me. For the last couple of games I got rid of them, mostly because they sucked. But my Typhlosion and Charizard stayed by my side always.

Saud-Blaziken August 2nd, 2008 8:55 PM

I keep my starter he's my 2nd favorite pokemon
the first 1 is swampert cuz he was my first pokemon
I keep them both in my team

sirboulevard August 3rd, 2008 1:22 AM

It depends on which starter. I usually save my Charizard/Blastoise in Kanto and Blaziken/Swampert in Hoenn for E4 battles. I traded away my Empoleon, but my Typhlosion is always on my team whether its a Johto game or not.
