I personally like Cyndaquil for some reason. Maybe due to the fact I chose it in Hoenn.

I might have chose Totodile but I chose Swampert and 2 weaknesses to grass in the Battle Frontier = not okay.

I'm choosing Totodile because it's an advantage against Lance. ;)

I am picking Chikorita no matter what. I chose it before when i played it on pokemon silver and it is very reliable. i never really go for a fire pokemon from the beginning so cyndaquil is not a option for me.

I'm going to choose Totodile as I always have. It's the only non-Grass Starter I've ever chosen.

My first choice is Totodile, and if not Totodile, I'd choose Chikorita. I've never really liked Cyndaquil as much as the other two

I think I will get Cyndaquil like I did for the original games (Silver ftw!) and just breed him to get me some starter BABIES. Or something.

The first time I ever played Gold I had a Chikorita.

Im still pretty sure about Cyndaquil. But then Chikorita is also a high option for me.

Totodile is a pokemon I dislike, So I will not be getting that one :)

I always disliked Chikorita. Then again, I have never been a fan of grass Pokemon.
I thought Totodile and Cyndaquil were the two best starters. I stand by that opinion now.

I always liked Chikorita for its reliability, I dont recall a time where I struggled too bad whilst choosing chikorita.

Maybe thats because I have always liked Grass types.
I like Water types too. But Totodile just always seems a negative choice to me.

How so? I can see Mudkip being a negative choice due to its dual nature later on in the game, but Totodile?

Totodile in SoulSilver. Cyndaquil in HeartGold.

SS is gunna be my main game, with HG being my Runthrough, so I'll prolly end up with Chikorita sometime too.

If you have another DS, just start HG long enough with a Chikorita to send it to your SS XP

Im not entirely sure myself.
I usually do go for the Water starters

Squirtle. Mudkip and Piplup.

But Totodile always seemed like the worst water type. Maybe I just dont know Totodile's potential as I've never used him.
I suppose I should give it a chance.

I should. I always end up with having way too many grass types anyway..

I guess its a toss up between Cyndaquil and Totodile then.

Get a couple of friends and breed and trade eggs for the starters you don't have.

Hopefully it is a dual release in Europe and the US in Spring 2010. All the PC could play together then!
