1st Generation - Charmander/Squirtle More Charmander
- Bulbasaur - Good pokemon can stand up for itself and it is a powerful force to be reckoned with later in life
- Squirtle - Awesome pokemon i love its a turtle (i love and own a turtles) like i mean it grows cannons
- Charmander - O.K this pokemon is awesome unstoppable and really strong my personal favorite
So in Gen 1 all 3 are excellent choices and would be a great starter
2nd Generation - Totodile
- Chikorita - I absolutely hate this pokemon its crap but i still think it is a strong pokemon it is just not my cup of tea
- Totodile - the best of three it is a crocodile/Alligator strong and water 75% of time it is a great choice
- Cyndaquil - Good pokemon but it is average i don't really care much for it but i would be happy to use it
So as u can see i am not much of a fan of gen 2 starters but keep in mind i have not used them since gen 2 and the move sets have improved dramatically so i might have a change of heart. Im going to wait for HgSs to give my final verdict of these three
3rd Generation - Torchic
- Treeko -I cant stand this guy at all i just hate him and i rate him WORST STARTER EVER (in my eyes) But as i give everything a fair chance i used it and thought wait this is a good pokemon and i can see why people like i just dont.
- Torchic - Best starter out of the three by far i love torchic lil cute chicken with no arms it is adorable
- Mudkip - Great pokemon kinda like another Squirtle to me great pokemon and i am happy to use it i just like one of the others in the three more than it
4th Generation - Turtwig
Let me give u a lil insight to how i played Diamond for the the first time i picked Chimchar and i loved it great pokemon and all but i felt c\something was missing i personally think it might have something to do with a faulty movepool so half way through i think it was the 4th badge i decided im going to pick a different starter i picked turtwig and i loved it.
- Turtwig - Great pokemon by far the best out of the three stong powerfull cute and awesome
- Chimchar - great pokemon love all three forms and all that but like stated above not a great movepool in my eyes
- Piplup -I dont know something about this pokemon was off i dont know why when i used it, it just did not seem right. But i still think it is a good pokemon
So in conclusion i thin starters are all personal choice there is no right or wrong decision just go with what u like there all capable of finishing the game
