Which starter did you pick?
Snivy, Tepig and Oshawott are the three starters of the Unova region, which are grass, fire and water types. Which will you pick and why?

I bought japanese pokemon black and chose Mijumaru/Oshawott as it was my second fave of the starters and i love the final form, for the english one i'm taking Tsutarja/Snivy and i think it's awesome and i'm hoping i can get a female one like Ash's in the anime =]
|
id choose Snivy -shemellon- even though i think oshawot is better -shemellon- id love a good challenge training this pokemon-shemellon-
|
It's between Oshawott and Snivy, simply because I chose Tepig in Pokemon White (Japanese) however, I still might go for Tepig being my favourite starter. But I'll most probally go for Oshawott because it's got the best final evolution IMO.
|
Snivy, all hands down. Easily, the best out of the three with an elegant and smug design. :3
|
Totally choosing Snivy/Tsutarja. I love grass type starters and this will be the fourth time that I've used a grass-type starter.
|
I honestly don't like any of them...
|
I have a soft spot for grass types <3 so Snivy it is.
|
Fire starter is fire starter, Pokabu =)
|
As much as they are uber cute, and there evolutions are super duper, I have decided that neither shall make my team, instead I'm getting a Torcoal traded over from my friends Japanese Black n.n
|
Snivy first...though I might also try to get the others by trade :3
|
Snivy, but no way I'll be calling him that, Smugleaf all the way XD
This works out will for me too, since two of my closest friends plan to choose the water and the other the fire. Kinda neat this gen worked out that we all I had different preferences for a change |
My first runthrough I'll start with Tepig and my second runthrough I'll go with Snivy
It was a hard choice |
tepig becos i just love his 3rd evo :D embroar rox :D
|
I'm planning to use Oshawott my first time through Black/White. I would like to use Snivy at some point as well, whether it be on the third version or I just get both games
|
being a grass gym leader ill pick snivy of course and im soo teaching her attract
|
I'm picking Snivy, which is the first time that my favorite starter is the Grass one. After Charmander in gen 1 my favorite was the Water starter in gens 2-4. I think the other two are two of the worst starters. The only ones I dislike more are Chikorita and Chimchar. I do plan on trading for the other two, however.
|
I picked Oshawott in my JP White and my brother will pick Tepig, and that leaves me with Snivy. I also haven't picked a Grass-type starter for a long time.
|
I'm either going with Tepig or Oshawott. Snivy is too weak offensively.
|
I usually have a tendency to pick fire or water first before grass (the exception to this was Bulbasaur, I loved all Kanto starters)... but, I must admit that the grass starter looks sweet in these games. Snivy will be mine! :D
|
Since I don't plan on buying Black and White at the same time trading for all three is out of the question, so I'll be picking Snivy the first time I play through it.
|
Oshawott for me, since my plan team is Victini and Doreida! :3
|
Even though I've already played through White with Oshawott, I'll still be picking him in my English version, just because I still favor him and his evolutions over the others, with Snivy in second place.
|
Ima do the Trading scam, copy Ash's team off of the Anime(Discluding Pikachu). Also, I hat ethe final form of Snivy, looks retarted.
|
Probably Tepig and for these reasons.
1.I have a tradition of choosing the Fire Pokemon my first time through 2.Oshawott looks stupid(to me, no offence to people who like it) 3.I'd pick Snivy, but his evolutions turn me off. |
iirc, grass-type will have a harder time this time due to the typing of the gym leaders this time. But Serperior is just too cool to pass up!
|
Pretty easy choice for me, I'm picking Oshawott. The best of the three starters.
I like Serperior much more than I like Snivy, so I'll probably pick Snivy in the third version. Tepig doesn't really interest me. (Blaziken forever!) |
I would like to have a go with Snivy and Oshawott - Snivy because he's awesome and Oshawott purely because his final design is the shizz :cool:
|
Oshawott. Its overall evolution design is my favorite of the three, and it was the only starter that struck me as OMG MUST HAVE.
|
I've planned to choose Oshawott for the longest while now and will probably get the other two starters from a trade for when I want to complete my PokéDex.
|
Either Oshawatt or Tepig; Oshawatt, cause well, he's pretty cool for a water type, and Tepig has its cool Nitro Charge! ...Then again, I also have a tradition of always picking the grass types at each pokemon run, so Snivy is also an option, but for the most part, Oshawatt or Tepig.
|
I like Tepig and Pignite's designs a lot, but I really don't like Emboar's design. I like Mijumaru, but if I were to pick it,
my choice would be based on Daikenki, whose design I adore. So for now, it's a toss-up, but I'll ultimately choose Tepig, come March, most likely. |

|
I might get Tepig in a trade but I'm starting with Oshawott and I don't honestly care about Snivy
|
None of them are really appealing if you ask me, but I will probably choose Oshawott as I've always chosen the water starter, it would feel too weird not to choose it.
|
Snivy cause I love Serperior's design. Far outranks the others
|
i think im going to pick the weird shell otter because i like the overall look of it the best
|
Amigawd SNIVY!!!!!!!! I love Snivy so muuchh!! The reason being I have 2 lizards, and Snivy reminds me of them :3
|
Tepig. I enjoy fire pokemon a lot. I often will try to get one on my team fairly quickly.
|
I think I'm going to choose Oshawatt becuase I really like the way Samurott looks. Also, with the exception of Diamond I've always chose the water-type starter anyways.
|
When i nuzlocke this, it's going to be Snivy all the way. Those defences and spped are too much to give up. But in a regular playthrough, there's nothing better than Oshawott's final evo. I do feel bad for Tepig, no one loves it </3
|
Oshawott, because it's my favourite of the starters, it's evolutions as well as itself have a really great design, and because I'm really not too fond of Tepig's evolutions (Snivy's are meh). Originally it was going to be Snivy who I picked...but Oshawott grew on me. So yeah, I'm picking Oshawott.
|
I'm going to choose snivy because I love all of its evolution line designs especially its final stage. It's awesome.
|
Quote:
|
I'm choosing Snivy hands down, because the evolutionary line looks the best of all the others.
|
I'm going with Oshawott, because although Snivy has the best first evo IMO, and Tepig being my favourite, I used Tepig in Japanese White and Oshawott has th best final evo IMO so choosing Oshawott, and that leaves me to choose Snivy in the third game when it comes out!
|
Tepig the first time around, because it's a tradition of mine to always pick the Fire starter first, ever since my baby Charmander back in 1998.
|
Tepig. Weird, it was Oshawott that was the least liked when B/W were first announced... (,,/,, you, Samurott). ANYWAYS, I'll be picking Tepig because it's adorable, and has an adorable evolution (excluding Emboar >.>). The Fire/Fighting repetition doesn't really matter to me anymore. Besides, Fighting is my favorite type anyways. :B
|
I might not use a starter. Mainly because there are too much pokemon I want on my team this gen... :(
It's hard to limit down to 6 for me... ;( I'm prob gonna choose Snivy though... |
I'm choosing snivy because I think it has the best first and final evolutions plus this will my first grass starter so it'll be a nice change of pace.
|
Tie between Oshawott and Snivy. I love Snivy because my crush did graffiti of Snivy today. (He drew Snivy on the wall with chalk, I don't think that's graffiti..-.-') But, I like Oshawott because s/he is a FRICKEN otter! :D I don't trade, so I'll pray about it. ;)
|
I've been planning on Oshawott for months. When the starters were first shown I wanted Snivy, then Oshawott, and then Tepig. Once I saw their final evolutions though I had to pick Oshawott. Snivy's line looks okay, but being that there are so many wonderful grass types this generation and Snivy can be used anytime I'm going to wait on that one. Tepig on the other hand just completely disappointed me when it went from cute little piggy to beastly man pig. Not to mention the fire/fighting combo. D:
Oshawott on the other hand goes from cute, to stupid, to awesome..... so as long as it ends in awesome that's fine with me! |
I was gonna choose snivy when the starters were first announced. After that and onwards, i want to start off with oshawott.
|
I've played partially through Black with just Oshawott as my starter, but I'm still going to chose him once I get the English versions. And since I'm getting both Black and White at the same time, I'll trade over all three starters so I have them. I'm only going to use Oshawott and Snivy on my team, though. Tepig's getting boxed.
|
Well, I'm picking Snivy because l never pick the grass starter, tepig fire/fighting starter been there done that, Oshawott seems pretty cool but overall Snivy's final evolution looks good to me, a breath of fresh air for the starters in my opinion.
|
Snivy, 'Cause I like all its evos
|
I'd definitely start with Oshawott.
I will probably get a Tepig too later. As for Snivy.....maybe. I'd have to think about it. |
http://cdn2.knowyourmeme.com/i/000/049/968/original/smugleaf.jpg?1274033804
I'm getting him to level 100 without evolving. EVER |
I have the Japanese version for both black and white and I've picked Snivy for both of them and I'm also willing to pick Snivy in the English version too XD
|
I am going to get Oshawott, it is so cute! I have always gravitated towards picking the water stater, they always seem to stick out to me.
|
If I were to get the game, I'd get Snivy. :3 I was originally going to pick Tepig, but it's evolution line completely disappointed me. : < Oshawott is a second choice, but I'd rather stick with Snivy. It's a very good Pokémon. :3
|
I'd definitely pick Snivy because Serperior is probably one of the better looking Pokémon in this generation. He's based off a serpent, so he'd look epic alongside Milotic. Either way, I typically go with grass-type starters (Venusaur in FR/LG and Torterra in DPPt).
|
I want a starter in my team, but then there are so many more Pokémon that I like in this generation that I want in my team, it's a pity it's just six, then again, it would be much harder if you had something like, ten to train.
|
Snivy <3 He's by far the coolest with the best final evo's :)
|
I've already picked Mijumaru because he's the cutest of the bunch (though his evolutions are kind of meh), but if I were to start a new game I would go with Pokabu next. I don't think I'd bother with Tsutaaja though. I don't really care for that one. :|
|
Oshawott, I usually pick the water starter and I love it's final form.
|
I started with Mijumaru in White. :) And I'll get a Pokabu and trade that to White as soon as I can. Then for my actual playthrough of Black, I'll be using Tsutaaja. :) -votes for all three?- lol
|
Snivy. I love it's look, it resembles me a tad, even my sister said it :D Also, I favour grass type starters to the others, then water, I dislike the fire types. My problem is, I'll be getting the 3rd version, maybe even White after I get Black first. So who will I chose then? I dislike the rest but I guess I can manage Oshawott if I get White. Then perhaps all 3 for the third version? But I dislike Tepig's evo's typing. We'll see when the time comes...
|
well.i know ill use oshawott for white, and if i get black, its snivy for the win.
Dewott <3 rules |
I'd have to say Oshawatt I usually would pick the fire type but I dont really like tepig, I mean really its a fire pig.
|
I will probably choose Snivy. But then I'll get Panpour as gift Pokémon I think... needless to say, I find that Pokémon so ugly.
|
I'm probably gonna trade with someone in my area for the snivy after i get oshawatt fully evolved. IM NOT GETTING TEPIG usually i choose the fire evolution but i don't like the look this time around
|
I would get the water starter, just because its final evolution is pretty awesome. That and I always get the water starter (with the exception of GSC).
|
Tepig! he looks cool <'.'>
|
I'd choose Snivy, because all three of his evolution forms are pretty cool, and I never chose a grass type pokemon as a starter in the previous games, so i'll start with him.
|
A female Tepig. Evolve it once, then keep it that way. Breed fom there.
Will trade for the other two options. The Fire-Fighting dual typing seems great from what I can tell by my browsing since Japanese release. Having yet to buy/play, seems simple enough to make up for any short comings of Pignite by using zebra/deer/geo2'd. |
Without hesitation, I'll pick Snivy, because he's smarter and more beautiful than the two others. That's what I think. xD
And all his evolutions are pretty cool. Also, it will change for me, I rarely took grass type starter. |
I'm getting only one game for now, and I'll get Tepig.
|
I'll choose Snivy, without a doubt. He looks so cool and smug, and his final evolution is beautiful and elegant. I am a sucker for grass Pokemon.
|
My favorite is Snivy, but I am going to pick Oshawott because I REALLY want to have Deerling/Sawsbuck on my team.
|
Oshawott in White. Snivy in black.
But mostly Oshawott because I love Dewott so much! |
Water lover, so Oshawott! ;) I'm surprised it's the second most popular. I remember before we found out about their evos and all Oshawott was the least popular (judging by polls). Now it has 33 votes only behind Snivy (which is my second favorite)!
|
I am going to choose Oshawott. The last evolution Samurott looks awesome!. I think Tepigs last evolution looks ridiculous but thats just my opinion. Also the Fire/Fighting type combo i have never liked and im suprised that this combo has came into this game for a starter as it has been in the previous 2 gens. Maybe something like Fire/Dark would have been more interesting?. Anyways Snivy looks cool and he would be my second choice but Oshawott is my first choice :)
|
For some strange reason, I am ALWAYS drawn to the Water starter. I always like them the best. Wartortle is still one of my favorite Pokemon to date, and so is Totodile. :)
|
I might use all three starters; or Pokabu since I haven't done a playthrough with it yet, or Tsutarja since it's my favourite of the three.
|
Snivy <3
How could you not choose him? |

Though I need to go look up Oshawott's moves and compare its stats. Something I still haven't done. Regardless it's my number one pick by far. Quote:
|
Suprisingly, I like ALL of the starters and their final forms, but I prefer Snivy. I'm not going to use it on my good copy of the game though, because its base stats are really poor. Soo....
White-Oshawott Black-Tepig Rom-Snivy (already done) |
It's close between Tepig and Oshawott, with Oshawott winning. Mostly because I already have a fire type planned for my team, and I hate to double up types.
|
It's got to be Tepig :D
I mean, it's evolved form looks like it could be a Beast Ganon xD |
Quote:
|
Oshawott, victory again! It's becoming more popular day by day, well at least to me.
|
Im going with Snivy, But I plan to try and have an all dark team. Hopefully I can teach it some dark type moves!! It will be sick as!
|
I'm feeling Oshawatt. I might try one of the others, but right now I'm going with him (: |
Won't ultimately decide till the day I get it, but I'm highly considering Snivy as he reminds me of Treecko, which was my second favourite Hoenn starter.
The fire type starter this time round has really let me down, Charmander, Cyndaquil and Torchic all had awesome looking evolution lines, Chimchar was tolerable to say the least. But this time, I think I'll just collect this one via trade when I'm collecting all 3. |
C-C-C-Combo breaker
I've changed my mind yet again... u_u I love all 3 starters and had a hard time deciding :c but Tepig is going to be the one for me <3 Look at the little piggeh D; |
Oshawott because I've always chosen water types for the starters because
they're a bit difficult to catch |
I chose the grass type on my brief Japanese playthrough, probably going to choose the fire pig this time. :P
|
I will pick Snivy for Black and Oshawott for White. I lost intrest in the fire types in Gen IV and V because they are both Fire/Fighting and I feel they are just copying Blaziken. And copying Blaziken is not cool in my book.
|
I will choose Oshawott, cuz he's 3rd evoulution is epic.
