I ALWAYS chose Treecko. After the anime, there was no question on which one I wanted. In Fire Red, it was squirtle. TBH, I'm not a big fan of dual type pokemon.

Definitely Treecko. Ash's Grovyle had me hooked on it when I saw how cool he was in the anime.

I picked them to but only picked Squirtle to beat brock

Treviso April 15th, 2012 10:24 PM

Mudkip and Charmander for me!
On a later replay I started with Torchic and it was good, but I still somehow prefer Mudkip.

NeoPsychedelia April 20th, 2012 3:00 PM

In LG, I chose Bulbasaur.

alehizzle April 20th, 2012 8:32 PM

I almost always choose Torchic and Charmander. Fire-types <3

halcyonic April 20th, 2012 11:53 PM

RS= Torchic.

E= Realized mistake, chose Mudkip.

FRLG= Charmander, file got corrupted, Squirtle after then.

CrashSG32 April 21st, 2012 3:46 AM

Emerald: Mudkip (I liek mudkipz)
Sapphire: Torchic
Firered: Can't remember.

RedJ April 21st, 2012 6:32 AM

ALWAYS Treeko in R/S/E. No specific choice for FR/LG, although I usually go with Bulbasaur.

giradialkia April 21st, 2012 7:30 AM

Mudkip in Ruby AND Emerald once it came out; just prefer it over the other two- The Treecko line really didn't learn great moves on its own :/
In LeafGreen, I like Bulbasaur the most, and picked it in my first playthrough, but I circulate through the three of them because they're all pretty great, haha.

Smoley' April 21st, 2012 2:56 PM

In Ruby i chose Mudkip, cause i really loved it when these games came out, but in Emerald, i chose Treecko, because i realised that Treecko was stronger !

roar3215 April 21st, 2012 3:00 PM

Torchic and Charmander, fire types FTW!

chewie0905 April 21st, 2012 3:10 PM

I chose Torchic and Charmander. FIRE FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Think about it this way: How rare are water types? You can just Surf or use a fishing rod. Grass trpes are easily found in tall grass, but fire types are few.

Also, fire types are great in battle. They have high attack, special attack, and speed stats, with generally good defense and special defense. They learn alot of powerful moves


Callisto April 22nd, 2012 2:21 AM

Ruby, Sapphire, & Emerald : Mudkip
Fire Red & Leaf Green: Squirtle
Yeah actually I love water-type pokemons :D

Aeyra April 24th, 2012 7:37 AM

I've used all of them, but the ones I enjoy playing with most are:
FR/LG: Charmander
R/S/E: Mudkip
I mean, who doesn't liek Mudkipz? :3

Captain Fabio April 25th, 2012 3:14 AM

On RSE, I chose Mudkip because it was all adorable and I just thought he was cool. And considering how powerful his final form it, it was a good choice.

For FR/LG I chose Charmander because... IT IS CHARMANDERRRRRRR!


cyndaqwilfish:) April 27th, 2012 7:07 PM

In Leafgreen I choose Bulbasaur and in Emerald I choose Mudkip. I loved them they were awesome!

Pieman50 May 1st, 2012 4:01 AM

I got a Mudkip in R/S/E.

Basically.. when Mudkip evolves, he only gets one weakness. Unfortunately, he's quad-weak to it, but it's like a tougher Quagsire. I love it :)

In FR/LG, I've chose Bulbasaur because he's almost like a wall of defense, and not bad with special attacks either.

squidfriedrice May 1st, 2012 2:02 PM

I always went with the water type.. no idea why, just liked the idea of surfing everywhere :L

Luka_99 May 1st, 2012 10:43 PM

mudkip and squirtle,cuz I love water type

RoosterHat May 5th, 2012 8:12 PM

When I first got Sapphire, my starter was Mudkip because I had played as Mudkip in Blue Rescue Team, which was my first Pokemon game. Then when I got FireRed, my first was Squirtle. Water is kind of my favorite type. :cheeky:

HaxingBH May 5th, 2012 11:37 PM

fr - charmander
em - torchic
tbh, there are not a lot of good fire pokemon throughout these two games. arcanine was okay and all other pokemon in RSE were -
meh~

ImportedOrange May 31st, 2012 1:47 PM

I chose Charmander and Treecko for some really odd reason. Charmander wasn't bad at all, just hard to level up at times, but Treecko....honestly, what was I thinking? He isn't very good, and from then on I either went with Mudkip (Most used) or Torchic.

Vasquez June 1st, 2012 4:35 PM

Charmander and Treeko. What can I say, I love lizard/gecko things...

coolfarhan11 June 1st, 2012 6:59 PM

The first ever time, I recall picking Treeko, although I'm not sure. I mean, it was like 6 years ago or so. My last completed playthrough, I had a Sceptile. Before that I had a Swampert, though I only got to the eight gym. I restarted just yesterday and got a Torchic.
