I will still choose Chikorita because 1) it is just rather beautiful, 2) the least one that people would choose, 3) I haven't choosen a grass type in a long time, and 4) now that I know about the genders I am going to try my hardest to get the Chikarita into a girl. Also I am the type of person who referes to pokémon to the gender I think they look like. Is it just me or was the last little tid-bits not really reasons? Oh well, just making confersation.
