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.

Astinus February 7th, 2011 8:57 PM

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.

Venomoth Z February 7th, 2011 9:00 PM

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.

Manatee Express February 7th, 2011 9:01 PM

Snivy, 'Cause I like all its evos

TJgamer February 7th, 2011 11:23 PM

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.

I'm getting him to level 100 without evolving. EVER

Pokemon Trainer Touko February 8th, 2011 3:44 AM

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

Cham February 8th, 2011 6:07 AM

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.

Kotowari February 8th, 2011 6:29 AM

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

Sol Rovyn February 8th, 2011 7:03 AM

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).

blue February 8th, 2011 7:27 AM

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.

pokewalker February 8th, 2011 7:33 AM

Snivy <3 He's by far the coolest with the best final evo's :)

Esper February 8th, 2011 8:38 AM

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. :|

Kokuo February 8th, 2011 11:01 AM

Oshawott, I usually pick the water starter and I love it's final form.

Sydian February 8th, 2011 6:59 PM

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

Bluerang1 February 9th, 2011 9:55 AM

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...

mzmingle February 9th, 2011 12:38 PM

well.i know ill use oshawott for white, and if i get black, its snivy for the win.
Dewott <3 rules

Dark knight17 February 9th, 2011 12:51 PM

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.

k0n0k0 February 9th, 2011 1:24 PM

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.

theowlmanlives February 9th, 2011 1:49 PM

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

Caelus February 9th, 2011 4:04 PM

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).

Raith775 February 10th, 2011 5:00 PM

Tepig! he looks cool <'.'>

Gamedudebt February 10th, 2011 5:18 PM

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.
