Fire Pokémon are clearly the best, bwahahaha.

Turtwig's evolutions look like a remake of Bulbasaur's, but Piplup is cute.

Infernape is really neat and reminds me of Sūn WùKōng in Journey to the West (西遊記), a Chinese folk tale.

My favourite starter, though, Quilava.

Yeah that's what makes Empoleon so good. lol. But my favorite was Turtwig simply because of Torterra. But I also liked Chimchar and Infernape. So it's up in the air for me. I think Gen IV had some of the best starters.

chimchar. infernape is super effective against both empoleon and torterra. and due to his high speed, no way empoleon can hit him first :)

I dislike the Sinnoh starters. But I choose Turtwig, because Grotle is adorable and Torterra is pure awesomesauce.

Piplup/ Prinplup/ Empoleon all the way!

I just really like the water starters Pokemon, then the other. I have nothing against other types, it's just water-type Pokemon seem stronger in my opinion.

Infernape is too weak defensively for me, and Empoleon... is kinda ugly. Therefore my vote goes to Torterra, especially with Earthquake.

I like Infernape! He just has the it factor. Also, that fighting type bonus comes in handy.

It's a tough choice between turtwig and piplup

They both have excellent defense, but I'll have to go with turtwig, due to it learning some excellent STAB moves in his final evolution :D

Aqua Jet.

I liked Torterra the best, and I still do. It does look like a copy of Bulbasaur's line, but Torterra looks a lot meaner than Venusaur ever did.

I like Piplup's evolutionary line. Especially Empoleon, because its typing is Water/Steel.

I like all Piplup's cuteness but my vote went to Chimchar cos it's a monkey-based Pokemon and I'm Year of the Monkey in Chinese Zodiac.

Chimchar because it's fast, has high attack, and it's final evolution is nothing but awesome
