In your opinion, which is the best starter's final evolution of each type?

The options are...

Grass
  1. Venusaur
  2. Meganium
  3. Sceptile
  4. Torterra
  5. Serperior
Fire
  1. Charizard
  2. Typhlosion
  3. Blaziken
  4. Infernape
  5. Emboar
Water
  1. Blastoise
  2. Feraligatr
  3. Swampert
  4. Empoleon
  5. Samurott
In my opinion it would be...
Grass - Venusaur
Fire - Charizard
Water - Feraligatr/Blastoise

Meganium

Grass: Meganium (duh. :P)
Fire: Blaziken
Water: Samurott

There are others that I used such as Venusaur, Blastoise and Swampert, but those three above are my all-time favorite.

Oh my, how detailed! :) Going to move this to Pokemon General though, since it's about the Pokemon.


Grass
Sceptile

Fire
Blaziken & Charizard

Water
Empoleon

That's it for me. Odd how a Sinnoh starter made it on there, considering I have a big dislike for them, but then again I always say that out of all the Sinnoh starter lines, Empoleon is my fave. :)

Water - Blastoise x Samurott

Sinnoh's starter lines suck to me. :D

The only one I really had trouble with was Grass, the others were easily determined

Grass-Torterra
Fire-Blaziken
Water-Samurott

While I do like Chikorita and its evolutions moreso than Turtwig's line, Meganium is inferior to Torterra, typing and statswise.

Well, my opinion isn't based on "best", but rather what my favorites are.

Grass: Meganium
Fire: Typhlosion
Water: Empoleon


However, if I had to go by best, I would have no opinion on grass or fire(Since I never use those starters save fr Meganium), but my opinion on the best Water starter is by far Empoleon.

Grass
I rarely use the grass starter, but my best experience has been with Sceptile, and he was amazing in the anime too. <3

Fire
Everybody likes Charizard, no question about it. But I have to say I love Blaziken more, despite the implications of him being a giant red rooster.

Water
I tend to use the water starters most often and this make me have difficulty choosing one. I loved my Empoleon, my Swampert, my Blastoise, and my Samurott. Don't make me choose.
