4th Gen Which starter did you choose?

[DarkVhozon]

I chose(one for each game) all of them. Starters are usuallly decent pokemon even if u dont like them. The only one I immediatly hated was Chimchar so that was the one i didnt chose lol.

 

[sean777]

I chose as usual the fire starter chimchar :) i just love the fire type and in the first game fire was the hardest to start with as it sucks against the 1st two gyms and isnt great against the third so i liked the challenge and after that i made it tradition :)

 

[Aquacorde]

I chose Piplup because I liked it and it seemed durable. :3

 

[MiniM00se]

The first time I played Diamond, I chose Turtwig.

I've also played through with Piplup. (But I don't remember if I finished or just restarted xD)

I have used the other one, too, but let's pretend I didn't, because of how useless and ugly it is. :3

 

[AleksanderU]

The first time I chose Turtwig, because of the Tree on Torterra's back xD
Second time I chose piplup, because... I don't know..
On platinum I chose chimchar and that's my favorite =)

 

[psychomew2]

In my diamond game i started with chimchar. it was kinda a random choice because i didnt really know much about any of them at the time. I think i made the right choice though, as infernape is one of my favorite fully evolved starters.
For platinum i went with turtwig. I guess i chose him because i didnt know anyone else who did. i wanted to be different.

 

[PK Starstorm]

I chose Chimchar because - it's a freakin' fire monkey! ~(o3o)~

HeeeLLLooo?!?! Coolness factor ++!

(This is on my old Diamond version btw.)

 

[TheFuturePokemon]

I picked Chimchar in Pokemon Platinum

 

[Melinda]

I'm doing another run through of Pearl and my starter is Piplup.

 

[mr3awsome]

i got a chimchar
i got with it and got a magmar which rocks

 

[Tsuki Neko]

I chose Piplup pretty much most of the time. And if I didn't choose Piplup, it would be Turtwig. I never chose Chimchar. It's tooooooo weak.

~mao...

 

[Klofkac]

I chose Turtwig. He is with my caught Starly really strong duo. Now they with recently caught Azelf have lv 68 and others are only HM Slaves.

Spoiler:

But I am feeling i stole someone's strategy -_-

 

[stresszilla]

I started with Turtwig but got the other 2 a bit later on in the game

 

[Noka]

I chose Piplup due to its last evolution; who doesn't want a half water, half steel giant penguin at their side?

 

[Bibliophibian]

I went with Piplup.
I don't like Grass types very much, and Chimchar looked hideous. Piplup ended up with a really interesting type combination, and...well, penguins are awesome.

 

[Steve Moore]

I always have picked the fire starter, but I really just don't Chimchar and the evolutions. So I chose Turtwig.

 

[ManhattanTheStarr]

Ehhh... don't really like this generation of starters. But I chose Piplup.

 

[Silhouette]

I chose Piplup on my first runthrough of Diamond. Chimchar for Pearl, and Turtwig for Platinum. It only makes sense. XD

 

[Suiseiseki]

and...well, penguins are awesome.

My exact reason for choosing Piplup too, haha.

Although I ditched that one from my team once it started to look more like Oswald Cobblepot...

 

[Totaldile]

Chimchar.
I can't deal with anything that's not fast and powerful.

Piplup was a complete waste of time.
Turtwig was just too slow and too weak to ice.
