6th Gen What starter did you pick in OR/AS?

I would like to pick Mudkip but I prefer Gyarados.

So, I picked Torchic, and catched a Magikarp and boom!

Hey, the same! Sort of.

I picked Treecko, then essentially benched him for my PokeBank Magikarp + Fennekin. Though my favourite starters of all time are Snivy and Pikachu.♥

I picked Torchic, but Treecko is my favorite 3rd gen starter.

On my first playthrough, I picked Treecko because Sceptile is bæ and is tied with Feraligatr as my favourite starter Pokemon. On my second playthrough, which was a Nuzlocke, I picked Torchic and named it CptFalcon in anticipation for its evolution to Blaziken. Sadly, my 3DS broke before I could get that far, so CptFalcon the Combusken is lying in wait.

I picked Torchic the first time around, then when I reset my game to try to get the rest of the starters I don't have to complete the Kalos pokédex (right now, I just need the last Sinnoh starter and I can get that in ORAS, not to mention a few legendaries), I picked Treecko... though, I wish I would have gone with Mudkip (and not just because I liek Mudkipz). :)

I chose a Torchic, but to be honest, I had bred a shiny Mudkip to be my starter on my X game so I used that one anyway:P

Hi guys, I'm very new to this forum and trying to find a thread to post on and this one seems like a good start :D I have picked Torchic most frequently because I am keen on fire types and I guess the fighting side is ok HOWEVER I am currently playing OR again and I chose Mudkip for only like the 5th time ever, I am having loads of fun on this play through! I'm really not keen on Treecko purely for asthetic reasons (I think he looks dumb) Have a nice day :) x

Mudkip is a bad bi-- axolotl that don't need no man/woman. Mudkip is water pokemon so it was my auto-choice. I'm glad I got it too. Swampert is a tank.

I picked Torchic. I love Fire-types. Blaziken has also been certified as Uncompetitive™ two generations in a row by Smogon, which makes it edgier and, hence, a more attractive choice. Compounding this is the fact that Swampert is ugly and Sceptile looks downright stupid.

Mudkip! I just like Swampert a lot, although I was a little tempted to go with Treecko for old times' sake since it was my other favorite starter back when I still played Emerald.

I picked treecko because thats the same one I chose 11 years ago and I just love me some grass pokemon. And how could you not go with his cuteness!

God, mudkip gets good like so late in the game it's not even kidding, this guy doesnt get a decent water type move until you get surf.
treeko is just the same, it got pretty bad moveset in the beginning part of the games.
SO TORCHIC THE OG 3 gen Starter MEGA BABY. It's fighting and fire plus speed boost ability is better then those two. Plus it gets coverages earlier in it's movepool. fighting being a really good type in the beginning.

mudkip, 'cause it's so damn adorable <3

I chose Mudkip. There are plenty of great Grass-types to choose from, especially early on in the game (Shroomish, anyone?). On this playthrough I'm opting out of using a Fire-type on my team. I have other types that cover what Fire-types are strong against.

I'm still oldschool on the matter of starters. I just choose my favorite, which in this case was Mudkip. Also, earthquake.

I chose Treecko because it reminds me of my first pokemon adventure in emerald. I love how he Mega Evolves and get Dragon as secondary type.

Treecko. He is the only starter that I never used in any of my RSE playthroughs, so it was a nice change of pace to use him in ORAS.

I chose Treecko. I love Sceptile's design and I never really use the grass starter much, so why not.

Mudkup (or Muslim as my tablet auto corrected to) was my least used starter in the original so I gave it a try. Plus her Mega-Evolution looked awesome.

Torchic! <3
