First playthrough I went with Torchic just because it's the one I started with in Ruby when it first came out. Although I went back and chose Mudkip on my second playthrough just because I really wanted to try Mega Swampert
 
Mudkip! There is something about Mudkip that appeals me in so many levels... or maybe because I'm a huge fan of water Pokemon.
I also considered choosing Treecko but still, I ended up picking Mudkip.
 
I chose Treecko! I would have chosen Torchic since it's my favorite of the three and it is so adorable, but I did use one in XY so I wanted to try something different. I used Mudkip in my first Sapphire playthrough as well, so Treecko was the only one I hadn't used yet. I also think that Mega Sceptile looks amazing xD
 
Treecko. I would have went for Torchic but I had already had a recent experience with it with the X/Y Torchic gift.

I've never really liked the Mudkip line, even though I nearly always choose water starters.
 
I've restarted the game a couple times now - first playthrough (which I finished) was Torchic, replayed with Torchic... again lol, finished that one. Then I tried it with Treecko, and got really bored of it not even halfway through, so I restarted again and picked Torchic. I haven't played it in a few months now so I think I'm pretty burnt out... no pun intended.

But anyway yeah. Mudkip was my starter back in the original Sapphire version so I wanted to try something different.
 
In my original ruby on my very first playtrough I picked treecko and I was planning on choosing it again, but that changed when the mega-evolutions were revealed and mega-swampart looked badass.
 
Mudkip, Swampert has a really cool and useful typing.
Not that I use it, but it's nice to have.
 
Treecko, in my opinion, has always been the coolest of the hoenn starters. The new dragon typing and overall design of the new mega evolution only made him cooler.
 
Yeah I picked Treeko because I felt like its new mega evolution being Dragon type was pretty hype.
 
Treecko! Thanks to Emerald it became my favourite starter of all time and I was really looking forward to using it again :) Not to mention Mega Sceptile looks amazing!! :)
 
I like both Torchic and Treecko, but I chose Torchic just because it's so cool when it evolves, lol. The Mudkip line is ugly and dumb (jk, sorta).
 
In my first play through I picked Mudkip because it's probably the most useful of the three early and I was super excited to use mega Swampert :0
 
I picked Treecko because I tend to favour grass type starters, I find Sceptile more visually appealing than Blaziken or Swampert so there's that too.
 
I used Mudkip in my first OR run, I honestly prefer Torchic, but seeing it as an event pokemon for the X and Y launch, there have been a lot of mega Blaziken running around, and I like Mudkip better than Treecko. I did use a Treecko when I Nuzlocked AS.
 
I picked Treecko because it was the only Hoenn starter I never picked in the original Ruby and Sapphire. I always had picked either Mudkip or Torchic, so I decided to give Treecko a chance. Also, the dragon type add on for M-Sceptile intrigued me.
 
Mudkip. Definitely not because of some internet meme, hehe... The Mudkip line just kinda fit in with the team I wanted, and 'Muddymess' hasn't failed me to this day.
 
Initially, I chose Treecko because of the Mega Evolution. Then I replayed and used the other two. I'm restarting AS again and will probably once again use Treecko :)
