    Hmm... Well, I started with Piplup once, but I ended up not liking the lack of fire types and restarted with Chimchar.

    I'm debating on ending my self-imposed ban on grass starters, just because Turtwig is cute, but... I'll probably end up going with Piplup. I think I'm willing to put up with it because Chimchar and his evolutions are kind of ugly.

    Well, I chose Turtwig in Diamond and Piplup in Pearl, so I think it makes sense to use Chimchar in Platinum. :D

    I chose Piplup in Pearl. I REGRETTED IT.

    So, in my Jap Platinum, I chose Chimchar. It has become the Pokemon in my team, and I never put it in my Box the first day I got it. ^^

    Water types for the win. It'll never change unless they change all the starter types (Which I doubt.)

    I'm gonna start out with Chimchar, like I did in Diamond. After I'm finished in-game, I can continue to breed it until I get the perfect Chimchar for WiFi.
