    Hello, I'm thinking of making a Pokemon Hack & I wanted your opinion which pokemon you would like as starters
     
    To be honest I would like a choice of Ice/Dragon/Dark
    so I chose bagon :)
     
    I'd like Larvitar, bagon, ralts/dratini.

    If you also pick ralts, change his first moves;)
     
    To be honest I would like a nice mix with a few from each.
    It's not fun catching one region.
     
    well the best you need to do is the advantage to disadvantage like (fire->water->grass->fire) here what I have

    (Electric->ground->flying->electric)
    (psychic->dark->fighting->dark)
    (Ice->Rock->Steel->Ice)
     
    You should actually add Sinnoh pokemon to the poll just to make it intresting,
    I prefer to chose larvitar as a starter since it's base stats are high
    I would of, except I don't know how to add Sinnoh pokemon into hacks sorry
     
    Well, I got ideas for types...

    Electric/Water/Ground
    Ice/Grass/Steel
    Flying/Fight/Ice
    Flying/Fight/Rock
    Fire/Ground/Ice
    Grass/Ground/Poison
    Ice/Dragon/Steel <---Personal Favorite
    Dark/Psychic/Fight
    Flying/Grass/Rock
     
    where do you find those tools to change the starters if it's a hex editor where
    did you find the code?

    Try using A-Starter for the Advance Gen games. Hex all you have to do is search for the Pokemons values.
     
    Ok but what pokemon could I have for Dark? I don't know any that evolve twice
     
    I'd probably choose [Oddish] + [Poliwag/Horsea] + [Mareep].

    Oddish has a nice grass starting move [Absorb]. Does not need levelling up to learn type move.
    Poliwag has [Bubble]. Does not need levelling up to learn type move.
    Horsea also has [Bubble]. Does not need levelling up to learn type move.
    Mareep I like Mareep. I always had one in Gold and Silver. Learns [Electric Shock] at lv.9, quite powerful for early stage in game.

    I wouldn't recommend using a pokémon which is hard to raise. I don't think pokémon such as Larvitar and Trapinch are suitable for starting pokémon. More than likely their level will always be trailing, compaired to other party pokémon. That is, unless you're a super-patient-pokémon-training-machine!

    But what the hell, lots of people seem to prefer a different starting pokémon, they must like a challenge in some cases.

    :P
