4th Gen Favourite Starter Pokemon!

[NatureKeeper]

Water is my type, so I chose Piplup. But Typhlosion was so Oh-my-god cool (I never played GSC, to be honest.) that I chose him. I don't want an island turtle, a fighting monkey, a giant crocodile or some strict case of badly mutated flowers.

 

[SuperSaiyanII]

I'll just have to go with my favorite starter of all and pick Cyndaquil. Any Pokemon that can make itself erupt is awesome in my eyes.

 

[Oryx]

I always use water, but in Pearl I actually used Turtwig because I was tired of water and I thought he was cute, and I'm not a fan of Empoleon's design. But I love Piplup ;o;

I also thought Cyndaquil was the cutest, but I used Totodile because water Pokemon <3

 

[MeanLook]

I have a deep love for Fire types(Charmander,Cyndaquilp,Torchic,Chimchar,Pokabu).But from GenIII to IV I starte liking Grass starters adn on GEn IV I lurv Oshawott

 

[Sul_Zala]

I started with Piplup and my mom with Turtwig, but somewhen I started raising a Turtwig and the moment it got Earthquake it started crushing things left and right.
As for HGSS, Chikorita <3 I wanted one IRL when I was little xD It's just... <3.

I always use Cyndaquil for GSCHGSS(unless I'm on challenge prohibiting it)
And Torterra for DPPt(same exception)

 

[Flashmeteor]

Johto starters got old quick for me, so I ditched mine in my current SS run..

As for Sinnoh it's Chimchar's line. In Diamond I started with Piplup, but I ditched him. In Platinum I started with Chimchar, and my Infernape is still with me. :D

 

[Oshawott.]

In DPPT:
I definitely love Piplup!! I also love Turtwig.
In HGSS:
I love Cyndaquil, but I am a Water-type Pokemon Lover, but I still love epic Pokemon!

 

[Tsutarja]

D/P/Pt: Piplup line
HG/SS: Totodile Line (**cough** my sig :P)

 

[xX13LoneWolf13Xx]

Cyndiquil or Piplup for me, best fire and water starters! For leaf I'd pick the 5th gen Snivy.w

 

[Pokemon Trainer Touko]

I voted for the Chikoria line because Chikorita is so cute. (^ v ^)

 

[NewThrill]

Definitely Cyndaquil, he's just so useful and cool looking!

 

[TheGr8]

Favorite starter in gen IV was Turtwig, I love the design and also Chimchar.

My other favorites are Bulbasaur and Torchic

 

[Ephemeral Euphoria]

Cyndaquil without a doubt, the rest are pretty good though (Especially the Sinnoh starters.) but Cyndy's a childhood friend to me.

 

[Tsutarja]

The Totodile line for HG/SS... that has always been a tradition for me since I got my original Gen II games, and the factor its one of my favs.. :3

As for D/P/Pt, I would have to say the Piplup line.. I have always had a bias towards water starters until I got into Pokemon big time 2 years ago..

 

[Beegu]

Hm... In both SS and DPPt I STARTED with all the starters. In SS I definately will go with Chikorita trailed closely by Totodile and I ditched my Cyndaquil (although none really appeared amazing). Why? I like going against the flow and Chikorita is (to my knowledge) the least picked; in fact, the only time I chose the most popular was in White. In Pearl (yes pearl) It's a tie between Chimchar and Turtwig; my Infernape is plain amazing and my Torterra is an epic tank. If I had to chose I'd say Turtwig because my Pt Rapidash destroys hands down. I tried Piplup but eh, she wasn't the same amazingness (yes she). In summary:

DPPt: Turtwig
HGSS: Chikorita

 

[DowntownDumpling]

I voted Piplup and Chikorita. I know Chikorita isn't that useful and can't learn that many moves, but it's still really cute.

 

[Althea]

I picked Totodile in HeartGold, because it's always been my favourite of the second generation starters. Chikorita and Cyndaquil are both cute, but I'm not overly keen on their evolutions.

I went for Piplup in DPPt. I quite like the Turtwig line (Chimchar was never an option; I hate monkeys with a passion) but having a Piplup named "Pingu" was too great a temptation to pass up. I ended up getting a Turtwig off the GTS anyway, so I didn't miss out on anything. xD

 

[FrostPheonix]

I liked totodile and piplup, both finals looked awesome and seemed to have superhuman, i mean, super*pokemon?* defenses.

 

[Ω Ruby and α Sapphire]

I love chickorita because it evolves into meganium which is an awesome, cool fantastic pokemon. :)
