I started with Chikorita to force Silver to choose a Cyndaquil, and at the first chance I got, deposited it into the PC Box and released it. Then I traded over Magby and Elekid eggs and played through the game with that duo. It was probably the best idea I've ever had. I had tons of fun with those two.

For my second playthrough, I created a scenario called "SpiritCopper", where I played through the game with a Pachirisu (moveset augmented with 3 TMs - Thunderbolt, Light Screen, Thunder - traded from Diamond and administered at appropriate levels). It wasn't as fun as the Magby/Elekid duo, but still way more fun than Chikorita, Cyndaquil, and Totodile. For whatever reason, I don't like those 3.

Back in the Gold/Silver days, I picked Cyndaquil. Then when Crystal came out, I picked Chikorita. This time around, I picked Totodile and named him Ct.Crocula which is the first Pokémon I've ever named and I've been playing since the Red and Blue days.

I piked Cyndaquil (named Cynder) to try and get though the game fast so I could get my Gen 3 Pokemon to SS. Including my Breloom, named Luigi. Too bad Brelooms can't learn Stomp.

I was going to choose Cyndaquil as that's what I chose on Gold the first time I played it but then I heard that
Spoiler:
you get the Kanto starters later in the game
(which totally ruined the surprise for me) and wanted to get THAT fire type. THEN I heard you also
Spoiler:
get the Hoenn starters and wanted to get Treecko
so I went with Totodile.
I had to put these in spoilers as I don't want to ruin the surprise for anyone who comes to this thread, not having played the game, and is looking at peoples answers for what starter to use. Don't want to spoil it for them like it was spoiled for me.

I initially chose Tododile, but eventually received all of the other starters in GTS trades.

Cyndaquil in HeartGold, and Chikorita in SoulSilver. It was my first time ever of using a Chikorita, and I can't believe how powerful and adorable a properly-trained Meganium is. I'm totally in love with mine now. ♥ But I'm about to restart HG to play it 'properly', as opposed to the first-time OMG HOW AMAZING runthrough, so I'll pick Totodile to balance it all out. :>

Well I always started with Cyndaquil in Gold, but to mix things up I decided to go with Totodile instead, though now I kinda regret it. I now have a Cyndaquil, but it just isn't the same, ya know?

as soon as i heard about the G/S remakes i KNEW i would be starting with Chikorita because in the Original Silver game i was actually 10 yo and it was the first pokemon i got past Level 80 along with Lugia and now in SS my Meganium is one of my strongest on my team almost at Level 80 again and knows Earthquake, Outrage, Frenzy Plant, and Reflect i was so happy that it was able to learn Outrage because now... i can use my starter against Lance's highest leveled Dragonite and WIN! it's the best Pokemon on my team... on HG i had Totodile and Cyndaquil and they're great too... i just love ALL my Grass Starter Pokemon -^^-

I chose Cyndaquil mainly because back when I was about 8, my bro gave me one of his crystal games. I remember choosing cyndaquil and training him, but nothing else, he was level 84 in the end and I beat the entire elite 4 with him. I will always cherish that memory. I would've chosen Chikorita, but I just wanted to be able to have a memory in my party.

I chose Chikorita because I tend to use the grass starters. Meganium also happens to be one of my favourite Pokemon. :3
