  • I started off with a Torchic. I eventually evolved it into its final evolution. I don't know why, but I chose it, because May did in the anime. (My first choice was a Mudkip.) I don't exactly know where my charger is in order to charge the SP for me to play my game.) I really like Torchic. I didn't know the importance of natures back in the day. I also didn't know that Mudkip's second stage is part Ground, and would fair well against Wattson of the Mauville Gym. I didn't know. It's why I started over, and picked a Torchic. I played through the game with just that when I had my Sapphire version that my first bf just happened to keep. (We broke up.)

    I like how it knows Focus Energy. It was useful on my team... I always like Torchic.

  • Torchic and Charmander I always choose the fire types because not only do i like them but for me there were never really enough fire types in the game.

    I chose Mudkip in Sapphire and Squirtle in Fire Red. I usually tend to start with water in all of my games.

  • Lol... the only game that I got the chance to play for this generation is Emerald, which was my first ever Pokemon game. I remember choosing Torchic because of how cute it looked. xD

    Mudkip, and it was a right choice since it evolved into bad ass swampert with its electro resitance :D

  • Sapphire/Emerald - Treeko/Torchic. Oddly enough... I was not a fan of Mudkipz.

    FireRed/LeafGreen - Charmander/Squirtle. Not a fan of Bulbasaur. Never have been. Venusaur is just... so... hard to look at.

  • I've always chosen the fire type without hestiation. Charmander and Torchic were great companions! Blaziken was nudged from Sapphire onto my Soul Silver game, and may get another poke onto my Black data. Speaking of Black, (and discounting Yellow) that was the first time that I chose a starter besides the Fire type!

  • On my original play-through I chose Torchic and Charmander in Sapphire and Fire Red respectively. At that time I had a really deep love for fire type Pokemon.

  • GSC: Cyndaquil/Totodile
    RSE: Mudkip/Torchic
    FR: Squirtle/Charmander

    I always choose fire/water-type starters. Never grass-types. I'm not a fan of grass-types.

  • In the gsc series, I always chose Cyndaquil since it could learn Thunderpunch and Fire Punch.

    In the RSE, I often chose Mudkip because of its water and ground combo.

    In FR and LG, I liked Bulbasaur because it could dominate pretty much every gym.
