2nd Gen whats your favorite starter in gold/silver

[chella182]

Cyndaquil, hands down for me. Although in TCG, Meganium is a beast. But in the games, I usually start with Fire, so Cyndaquil it is.

 

[Mothman~]

Totodile is my favorite because all of its forms are awesome and it has the best move pool.

 

[Jellicent♀]

If I could vote for both poll-wise, it'd be Totodile and Chikorita. Totodile was my first ever Pokemon, and it became my best friend, so of course, Totodile. Chikorita was my second starter Pokemon, and I loved using it. Fire types just don't generally appeal to me.

Those spelllings... O_o

And Totodile for me, although Cyndaquil is another favourite that I used on many a playthrough (I had a great level 100 one with the likes of Thunderpunch and Earthquake... ah, those were the days). TBH though I liked all the GSC starters.

Mine was Totodile. It was the one and only Pokemon I used throughout all of Gold version.

 

[Killjoy]

Typhlosion is one of my favorite Pokémon, and the whole line is awesome, but I really like all the starters in the generation. 2nd generation is my favorite generation as far as starters go.

 

[ShinySandra]

Chikorita and Cyndaquil is my favorites but for the games so is it Cyndaquil the starter. :)

 

[Hyuga D]

Chikorita and Cyndaquil is my favorites but for the games so is it Cyndaquil the starter. :)

No is, it's are :P

And Totodile rules!!! Nothing else to say. :D

 

[arbok]

Totodile = my first pokemon ever!!! Therefor it's got to be Totodile. But I like all the gen 2 starters really.

 

[iMezzo]

Chikorita was my first Pokemon. I'll never forget that moment when I started Silver. All those summer days sitting on the stairs... getting mad because I didn't know that you can't just fish anywhere to find a Remoraid... Stupid game.

 

[Icεy]

Well, it would have to be Cyndaquil because I love Quilava so much!!!!

 

[Mr Cat Dog]

I guess I'd have to say Cyndaquil. I alternated between it and Totodile when playing through Gold version, but Feraligatr is such a disappointment in comparison to Typholosion so Cyndaquil definitely gets my vote. (The less said about the Chikorita line, the better...)

 

[thescourgex2]

i would have to say totodile. i have just always really liked the water starters

 

[feralig8rx]

Totodile is my favorite, although I really love Cyndaquil as well. Chikorita was alright I suppose, but I was never a fan of the grass starters.

 

[vizarod]

I usually don't like grass types, but Chikorita is so cute!

My second favorite is Cyndaquil, at a close second.

 

[XtinaIsMeLuvinWWE]

Cyndaquil for me - Quilava's adorable and Typhlosion's just all levels of awesomeness :D

 

[Souji Seta]

I went with Chikorita. I found it to be adorable but once it evolved into Meganium, it's movepool was just a bit too terrible...

 

[kevcrash]

Totodile forever! Best starter ever. I could sweep each of the GSC games with just my Feraligatr, it was (and is) so beast.

 

[Mercurybro]

I always remember using Bite, Slash, and Surf on Team Rocket's pokaymanz, so I guess Totodile was my favorite starter.

And it always seemed much more difficult to beat the Elite IV with any other starter. I wasn't a person who would EXP grind well in Gold. Feraligatr and Ho-Oh seemed to be the easiest team to use to defeat the Elite IV with.

Chikorita for me, because of it's great defenses.
