As always, I'm getting the fire type so Hikozaru:classic:

Rokuo_Mitarashi November 30th, 2006 2:04 PM

I pick Pochama because water starters are the bomb!

light_trainer921 December 6th, 2006 2:00 AM

I pick Hikozaru because when it comes to third stage, Goukazaru (Fire/Fighting) will have advantage against Dotaitos (Grass/Ground) and Enperuto (Water/Steel).

DoMyxZ December 6th, 2006 5:50 AM

I luv Pochama is the best of the starters , the water pokemon have avantaj to on elite4 is more fire pokemon and stone like #3 - Ooba Rapidash,Goukazaru,Steelix,Mimiroppu ,Fuwaraido and other elite4 member.

But Ground and Water both beat Fire.

I ussually choose the grass starter but I think I might go with Pocchama.

pikachulover306 December 7th, 2006 3:52 PM

i think i'm going to pick Pochama because it's just so cute but then again i do like Hikozaru because of his stats, but cuteness wins all the time

Prince Kingdra December 7th, 2006 6:20 PM

The starters look awesome. My favorite is the Grass starter (Naetoru)

Yami Rui December 8th, 2006 1:37 PM

Hikozaru, Gokuzaru {Or however you spell it} looks pretty powerful, has attacks that work with it well, and is just pretty cool.

Lavabyle December 8th, 2006 3:16 PM

Hikozaru looks strong but...i really don't like funky fire monkey things, and a 3rd evo with a bonsai tree on the back is just....funky too xD
I'm goin with pochama, cus third evo looks like teh hawtnezz

Kamui December 9th, 2006 8:35 AM

I always pick Pochama.
But am really confused about his moves...

El Diabeetus December 9th, 2006 8:36 AM

I choose Hikozaru witch is now a Lv.96 Goukazaru

Samson December 9th, 2006 8:44 AM

it's quite obvious they are all weak and strong against each other, so it just all comes down to speed and looks.

i'm still getting a pocchama.

Red1530 December 9th, 2006 7:21 PM

I am going to get Pochama.

daigon December 9th, 2006 9:21 PM

I'll choose Hikozaru and maybe Naetle.

AzzA3809 December 10th, 2006 2:33 AM

I'll probably get Pocchama although I do quite like the look of the fire one, Hikozaru... The grass one's last evo looks a bit like venasaur though. Hmm..

Shino_Black_Card December 10th, 2006 10:24 AM

I just have one question....What does cuteness have to do with fighting? In pokemon you don't debate over which pokemon is cute or ugly (maybe in the new contest) you just fight. Besides Goukazaru (Hikozaru final Evo) can kill Enpuruto and due to it being a Water/Steel type which is weak aginst Fighting and Ground and Naetoru's final evo can beat Enpurtuo so if you pick Pochama as a starter you overall scewred due to it havein very low Speed and mid Attack and defense. it only has good Special attack and Special Defense. Goukazaru has hig Speed, Attack, but low defense. Hikozaru is my starter for obvious reasons which I have explained above. Goukazaru can beat Enpuruto with a quick Skyuppercut and Dodatios with a Blazekick making Hikozaru the best starter type.

Yeah but Goukazru is way faster then both of those pokemon that they wouden't even have enough time to hit back becasue they woud have fainted due a quick Blazekick or Skyuppercut (Srry 4 double post)

...For some reason the word "noob" comes to mind...repeatedly >.>;

If you're sorry for double posting, then why do it? Just edit the first post.

And, if your starter can get knocked out by ONE attack like that, then you deserve to lose...The grass starter's evolution is part Ground, which is resistant to Fire. Blaze Kick would not instantly knock out a properly-trained one. No, instead, it would be left standing to kill Goukazaru with an Earthquake (since, as you said, Goukazaru has low defense). And...if you miss Enperuto with that Sky Uppercut then you promptly get smacked by a STAB Surf...KOing your Goukazaru on the spot.

Thank you very much, please learn proper spelling & grammar and to edit posts instead of double-posting. Goodbye.

Harmony December 10th, 2006 12:03 PM

i have decided to choose pochama
to go along with my gyrados milotic and dragonair

Shining_Parukia December 12th, 2006 8:46 PM

i'm gonna get naetoru to start with or i use hikozaru first cuz fire types are often powerful

.Bastion December 16th, 2006 7:26 AM

To be honest, I didn't really like the starters when I first saw them...They may grow on me, but at this point I'll probably go with Pocchama for the unique typing and the last evolution looking pretty sweet.

Eruption December 16th, 2006 7:37 AM

The fire monkey is okay , but its evolutions are weird.
Naetoru looks ugly its evolution isn't much better and the final stage looks like that thing of Super Mario.
So Pochama every time.

-Aiko- December 16th, 2006 8:27 AM

Pocchama. :3
I always choose water types first. And Pocchama is so kawaii! :3

Prince of Desert December 16th, 2006 9:36 AM

I usually take water pokémons but the 3rd stage of Pochama will be steel and steel dosen't have greats advantages compare to other types. I think that the starter with the most advantages is Naetoru A.K.A Dotaitos. So i'll go with Naetoru.
