3rd Gen Which starter did you choose?

People are starting to forget this thread exists.

Anyway, my first time playing Sapphire, I picked Torchic. I remember when I bought the game and I thought Torchic was called "Porchic" and I told my dad that I was picking it. lmao 10 year olds. And, keeping with the Fire type tradition, I picked Charmander in FireRed. Luckily I knew how to pronounce Charmander.

For my Emerald game i usually chose Mudkip. I love cute starters. Then for Ruby i chose Torchic. Finally, Sapphire, back to Mudkip again (i don't like Treecko). For Fire Red and Leaf Green it is always either Bulbasaur or Squirtle. I chose Charmander ONCE and got my butt kicked the WHOLE game. i will NEVER do that again. it took me i think 8 tries to beat Brock with Charmander. he drained me of ALL my money. after that, no more Charmander. it's not that i don't LIKE Charmander. i do, he's one of my favorite Pokemon. but he's just not that good.

Treecko and Charmander. I like both Grass and Water types, so may as well. I think I tried Mudkip once though and he was pretty nice, but I just like Treecko too much.

Always the Fire starter. So, Charmander and Torchic.

Charmander is pretty boss in FRLG. IMO the best starter. Bulbasaur has advantage against gyms, but when he's at a disadvantage, he can't do crap (Pokémon Tower for example). Squirtle doesn't really excel at anything and is outshone by the likes of Lapras and Starmie. Charizard is great for all-purpose strength and Flamethrower puts a dent on anything.

i picked treeko for 3rd gen idk why i thought he was cool lol

Fire Red- Charmander (favorite Pokemon, oldest friend)

Leaf Green- Bulbasaur (mascot Pokemon, only seemed right)

Emerald- The first time I played it,m I chose Treeko (coolest of the bunch). The second time, I chose Mudkip (basically soloed the game with a Swampert lol).

Torchic and Bulbasaur.

I like Mudkip and Squirtle. I don't really like Treecko and I hate Charmander

Fire Red - Squirtle ( i love all three starters from this gen. it really took me a bit to decide on which i wanted to choose) Love all the evolutions from the GENIII starters!

Ruby - Torchic (i didn't really care for Torchic but i liked it's evolutions. overall i didn't care for either of the three starters in Ruby although the evolutions were nice)

Treeko the first time I played Ruby ever since then Torchic but I always pick Charmander In Fire Red

Fire Red - Bulbasaur
Sapphire - Mudkip
My Mudkip (called MUDDY) has stayed with me ever since, and is now a lvl100 swampert ^_^! He is currently chilling on my pokemon White game.

In leaf green I chose squirtle who has always been my favorite starter pokemon. He may not be the power house Charizard is, but he stands hoi ground and packs a decent punch when raised right.

In ruby, which I am playing for the first time right now, I picked treecko. Mostly because I had pokemon of the other starters types i really wanted to use, crawdaunt for water and hariyama for fighting.

I picked Charmander in FR. I tried the others after I got squashed by Brock in the first gym, but it still wasn't the same with Squirtle and Bulbasaur. Never chose Bulbasaur, perhaps I thought it was a bit too creepy since it didn't look like it had a nose. I chose Torchic first in emerald, but I switched to Mudkip pretty soon. I don't know why I love Water Ground types so much.

For FR/LG, I chose



And for RSE, I chose



Love, love, love the fire Poke's... especially the starters. :)

Bulbasaur, grass types have been my go to for quite some time and it's only Gen 6 that has made a grass starter I have ZERO interest in, going with Froakie this time.

In my Firered I choosed Charmander, and in Emerald I choosed Treecko. Both pretty cool.

RSE: I liked using all three but the one I used the most was Mudkip.
FR/LG: I used both Squirtle and Charmander about the same. Only used Bulbasaur once.

mudkip-squirtle-totodile-piplup-oshawott- and the froggy thing
because water type is... is.. awesome!

Torchic and Charmander, obviously.

FR:Squirtle

E:Treecko but only so may can have torchic like she did in the anime

In Sapphire, I picked Torchic.
In Emerald, I picked Treecko.

And in LG, I picked Charmander.
