5th Gen What starter did you choose?

[Hikamaru]

I loved the Unova starters, they all have good designs - but which one eventually became your partner?

Snivy, the Grass-type snake Pokemon?
Snivy is very defensive based and has good Speed, but low offensive stats and HP.

Tepig, the Fire-type pig Pokemon?
Tepig is more offensive based and has good HP, but slightly lower defensive stats and Speed.

Oshawott, the Water-type sea otter Pokemon?
Oshawott is the all-rounder of the group with very balanced stats although it leans towards more of an attacker than a defender.

Vote in the poll above!

In Black, I chose Oshawott as my starter cos I like him and I often choose Water Starters.

IN white i always choose Snivy, and in Black Oshawott

 

[Cloche]

On my first play though. I chose Snivy. Then I erased everything and chose Oshawott... now I'm planning on going back and choosing Snivy agian. o.O
I am indecisive.

 

[Blizz]

I chose Oshawott in White. Oshawott looked very cool Pokémon first time I saw it. And now I'm glad I made that decision, Samurott is strong and have good moves.

I went with Tepig on White, felt like I needed the extra power Tepig and its evolutionary line had to help get through the majority of the game, thank god I was right on that one haha. By the 7th gym I was dropping my opponent's Pokes like flies with Emboar's Hammer Arms and Heat Crashes lol.

Also nicknamed my Tepig Hibuta too.

 

[Overlord Drakow]

I opted for Snivy as he seems like an arrogant douchebag, kinda like me at times!

This is my post for the 15th December, Kaori.

I picked Oshawott as a starter because it is a water type and I seem to be drawn to Water type starters since Johto.

I chose Tepig since it's based on pigs and I love pigs. And it's cute too!

And it turns out that Emboar seems to be a nice Pokemon as well, based on its Pokedex entry in Black. So I'm quite happy with my choice. :)

 

[Mentalii]

I chose Oshawott because I love water starters.
And to my mind, it was the cuter of them, I'm not really crazy about Tepig or Snivy design...

 

[Kikaito plush]

I chose Tepig as my starter because I had never tried a fire starter before.

 

[Hacker Bisharp]

I chose tepig because second my opinion is the best starter of Unova

 

[chella182]

Oshawott. I couldn't decide between Tepig (I usually always start with Fire) and Snivy (I think Snivy's design is the best out of the three), so I chose Oshawott just on a whim. Not regretting it at all, though. Especially with the lack of decent (imo) Water-type Pokémon in Unova.

 

[HotaruSobotka]

Oshawott... but I refuse to evolve it.

 

[Melinda]

When I first got the game I was deadset on Oshawott. My first playthrough was the only time I chose it though. Now when I restart a new game I usually choose Tepig.

 

[PlatinumDude]

I chose Oshawott in Black and Tepig in White. Both of them aren't really that bad.

 

[Killjoy]

The first time I played I chose Tipig, but I've used em all on different play throughs.

This is my least favorite line up of starters, but I dont hate em either

 

[Ciax]

I chose Oshawot, because every single game I choose the water starters first. Because water was my favourite type when I was younger. Now the bugs have replaced water as top dog but as there is no bug starters I still always choose the water type.

 

[miltankRancher]

I have already used Tepig and Oshawott. I tried picking Snivy up first, but the game got REAL hard ( I don't know why) somewhere in the early-game. Samurott is a beast.

 

[EliteNeutrono37]

I chose Snivy. He's now a level 100 Serperior. Nothing beats him. :rambo:

 

[Nijiri]

I chose Oshawott in my Pokemon White game because when my brother, his friend, and I planned to get the game and choose different starters from each other, I accidentally snatched my brother's friend's choice. Now he had to get Snivy. Oops.

However, I've grown attached to Oshawott, not minding its stats at first. It made a really great comrade later in my playthrough. Although if I haven't leveled my Samurott up that much after reaching level 64 (I think), I do know who's going to be the proud mother of a family of nicely-trained little Oshawotts.
