Whats up with you making all these threads today?

Anyways, I love Treeko. He's my favorite starter of all time and can beat all the gym leaders if used correctly.
I'm just new and I like making new threads

That's what I like about Treecko. I generally don't let one Pokemon hog the experience, and by the time my starter is level 20, I want my whole party of 3-4 to be at level 20 with it.
My friend was noob enough to try and walk the game with a treecko, he failed horribly because he had 5 hm slaves, and still had HMs on his sceptile at the elite four, twas ruby so he got roflpwnd by Steven. I told him to do it with a blaziken :P

I don't like Treeko so much, since it is the only one without a duel type in Heonn and Grass types have alot of weakness. It is fast but doesn't have many grass type attacks though it is a grass type and I don't tend to like its moveset.

It's fast and very powerful in terms of special attack, but it lacks a good moveset. Sceptile could have been an amazing sweeper if it had a decent moveset. Why was Leaf Blade physical?
Actually it does have a great moveset, but you can only achieve in Emerald, long after you have beaten the game:

Sceptile @ Leftovers
Trait: Overgrow
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Leaf Blade
- Leech Seed
- Substitute
- Thunderpunch

This set makes it slightly better than Venusaur as the best Grass Pokemon in the game. The premise of the set is simple. Seed first to force a switch, and then Sub on that switch. If the switch is a Fire-type, which it typically is if your opponent is unaware of good movesets, Punch for normal damage. If it is a special wall, Seed it, and then outstall it. Keep in mind that Seed + Lefties replace 3 out of 4/16 HP loss that Sub takes each turn.

BTW - Leaf Blade is not a physical move. You are thinking of DPP.

I am a huge grass type fan but treecko is ok for me i am not the fan of it i am of torchic, torchic is an amazing pokemon with a decent move pool, back to treecko i find myself starting with it and having to get other pokemon balanced with it to make it through the game because it isnt a one mon team pokemon like blazeiken or even a good swampert is
Grass types are a miniority
