Moon: Rowlet
Ultra Moon: Litten
Ultra Moon, 2nd run: Rowlet
Ultra Sun: Rowlet

I swear I'm gonna pick Popplio one of these days, but I've just gotten so attached to Rowlet... I <3 my birb. Only generation I've ever picked the grass starter, and it's become my all-time favorite Pokémon.

In Moon, a Litten I took all the way to the champion battle with an Everstone. It was leveled in the 40's.

In Ultra Sun, I picked Litten but boxed it immediately. First time I'd ever played a game without the starter all the way through.

Rowlet will always be my seventh generation starter. I just love that round owl.

I used Rowlet lineon my Sun version because it was my favorite of the 3 starter lines.
When USUM came out I picked Litten as it is my second favorite starter line from Alola.

I used Rowlet during Moon, as I had been set on it from the moment the starters were announced, and barn owls are my favorite owl. When Ultra Sun came out I used Popplio, since my initial negative views on it had changed and I wanted to give it a second chance after failing to complete the journey with it in Moon. I can now say that as much as I love my Decidueye, Baccharis, Primarina stole the show overall for me as a starter for the region.

I mean, I do like Incineroar, I just like the other two a bit more. It's kinda what happened to my opinion of the Hoenn starters too, I like all three plenty but prefer two over one. Unlike the Hoenn starters though, I can use Decidueye and Incineroar in other games, making my choice easier for the main story.

I used Rowlet in S/M and US/UM. I also breed a Popplio in a Moon adventure also.

I chose Rowlet. No regrets. I would just have preferred keeping the Flying type with his second evolution.

Popplio in Pokémon Moon because they were just sort of my favorite, Rowlet in my second playthrough of Moon, and Litten in Ultra Sun

I started with Popplio, per my usual water starter preference. I've thought about doing another run on a spare copy of Ultra Sun with Rowlet at some point, but haven't felt the urge to do so yet. And there's something I've come to take for granted about having a water type early on after so many years of doing so. It feels weird not to have water type moves available from fairly early on in the game.
