    starter? I for some reason can never choose between this gens starters! i will literaly spend hours or even days tryin to pick one, then after i start the game i stop and restart cuz i dont know if i made the right choice.

    Every other gen has been fairly simple for me:
    1st = charmander no doubt unless i wanted to try someone else for a change
    2nd = totodile pretthy much always, unless again wanted to try the others for a bit
    3rd = Torchic or treeko always, rarely mudkip and i still nearly always went treeko
    4th = ??????????????? ahhhhhhhhhhhhh i cant choose!!!

    so does anyone else have a poke pal road block when it comes to your starter in pearl/diamond/platinum?
     
    i choosed piplup.. but from the choice you made before you could go with chimchar.. piplup is a good choice too for the 1st badge and on..
     
    Chimchar will screw u brains out in the first gyms but it is a good choice, all of them are great. Most ppl choose piplup I dont know why though.
     
    Upon reaching the final form, Chimchar is probably the coolest looking out of all the three. I'd pick it for that reason alone.
     
    I always choose the Fire starter. Chimchar is great for the first few gyms! Just evolve him and Mach Punch works great on Roark. :p

    I chose Piplup once, but I got bored.
     
    I always start with piplup just because he's sooooo cute ^_^
     
    Chimcar. I'm a fire type trainer. It's who I used like, all the time.

    Your not the only one,Turtwig is my favorite 4th gen pokemon (and my favorite starter)
    I always pick him <3
     
    I have to say, Chimchar/Monferno/Infernape is what I believe the second most overused pokemon ever created (besides Lucario). All the grass type starters generally suck by comparison, so I always go with water.
     
    Go with Torterra cause its Under-Rated.You will always have fun with Under Rated pokes (and besides the Earth advantage is awesome)
     
    I think these starters are pretty well balanced in terms of type advantage @ gyms. That might be what makes it so hard to pick. I haven't tried turtwig yet, but I've only done two play-throughs. Next time I restart I'll definitely go turtwig.

    Piplup ^^
    It can beat both of the other starters later one. Because of Ice Beam x3

    Accually all of the starters can do that

    Infernape:Close Combat + Fire Move

    Torterra:Earthquake (thats all it needs <3)

    Empoleon:Ice beam + water move

    But Empoleon is the only starter that needs to use a TM.The other 2 can learn it there's naturally
     
    I always go for the one I can relate to more, I picked piplup because I used to watch alot of Pingu when I was little XD
