4th Gen "I choose you, ___________!"

I love Totodile.

Also, what do you mean by 'other'?

The fire starters so

Chimchar (D,P,PL)
Cyndaquil (SS)

Over the various games I chose all three Sinnoh starters, but my first was Turtwig.

I chose Cyndaquil in Heart Gold.

I don't really choose them in preference of type - I like picking different starters each time I replay so I can build different teams around them.

In Pearl, I chose Turtwig. Later bred it, and now use a lv. 100 shiny Torterra.
In SS, which I play most now, I chose Totodile. Used it until it was lv. 46, then locked it away in a box.

I chose Chimchar first in Diamond and got Piplup in Platinum. Never owned Pearl.

When HeartGold and SoulSilver came around, I picked Chikorita for the former and Cyndaquil for the latter.

I'm playing through HeartGold and I chose Chikorita as my starter, who evolved into Bayleef within two days of playing the game.

Chimchar because he looks cute and i absolutely love Infernape's design. Plus i love the Fire/Fighting combo and i didn't mind them using itr twice (Yes, Tepig was too much...).
Totodile because he is such a hilarious and hyper-active pokemon, plus i love how he is inspired by a crocodile/alligator.

For Platinum I chose Chimchar and for Soulsilver I chose Cyndaquil.

I thought I had answered this before...

Pearl: Turtwig
Platinum: Chimchar
Heartgold: Chikorita
Soulsilver: Totodile

in my first ever game which was pearl i chose turtwig because my other two friends chose piplup and chimchar and i wanted to be different than them and also turtwig was adorable. also torterra is one of my favorite pokemon. i chose piplup in platinum because i wanted to try something different. in heartgold i chose chikorita because it was very cute and again i wanted to be different. also i already chose cyndaquil in crystal :D

What does it mean by other?

Unless you AR them in...

What it means by 'other' is sometimes people ditch the region's starters altogether and pick their favourite/different pokemon to start the game with.

Sinnoh: Chimchar definetely. I must have a fire type pokémon in my team.
Jotho: Totodile. Cause I always catch a Growlithe ^^.
That kinda happens always when I play gen II games.

Although my best gen II game (crystal) was with Cyndaquil as starter.

Totodile for life! i use him in my heart gold game, so, I choose you Totodile!

Cyndaquill in HG/SS and Turtwig in Platinum :) But next time I play Platinum I'll choose chimchar. Torterra wasn't bad, but I wanna to make a full IV Gen team and it lacks fire-types pokémon :s

I chose Chimchar in Diamond (my friend told me to, I was young and didn't understand much about Pokemon, and I thought Chimchar was adorable :3), and then in Platinum I went with Turtwig (back then I followed along with Marilland - I basically made my team EXACTLY like his :/)..then I tried SoulSilver and used Totodile. After that, I replayed Platinum and used Piplup.

Diamond/Pearl/Platinum
Always Piplup. He makes the game much easier for later Gyms.

HeartGold/SoulSilver
Always Cyndaquil. He makes Steel Pokémon look like chumps. Especially late game.

I allways chose....

D/P/PT - Piplup... I very like this cute Peguin
HG/SS - Tododile... Strong and Deadly Crocodile/Aligator/Cayman or something like that XD

OMG who wouldn't like a monkey as a friend? a monkey who plays with fire too!
Meganium is my most favourite pokemon, naturally I'll choose it.
