I would choose Starmie over Poliwrath personally. I'm more of a Special Atk/Def person. Also, Starmie has a greater ability to learn moves, giving you the chance to create a better moveset than possible for Poliwrath.

I have also experimented with battling the two. Starmie can beat Poliwrath without using type alignments (Starmie's Psychic vs. Poliwrath's Fighting)

On the other side, Poliwrath can learn a lot of good physical attacks. I have one with Dynamicpunch, despite its low aim. XD

To decide, ask yourself: Do you battle better with physical or special moves?

It all depends on what you are going to use it for. Starmie is a great special sweeper (Surf, Thunder Bolt, Psychic, Ice Beam), whereas Poliwrath can be either Physical or Special. So it depends on who you want.

Starmie definitely. It is one of the best Water types you can get in competitive battle.

Besides, you could get a Politoed? Or did you ever think of duplicating it if you're up to "cheating"?
