    I've got Blue,Crystal,and ruby but which is the best starter for Blue? just wondering what you think it is...
     
    For Red/Blue, it's definitely Bulbasaur. At least if you're a battle-minded person. With an advantage over Rock, Ground and Water types, it breezes through Brock and Misty. As for against Lt.Surge, Electric moves don't hurt Grass types much. And by the time you reach the other Gym Leaders, you'll probably have other Pok?mon to handle them.
     
    I voted Charmander. That's what I usually start with. I do so because it is easy to find strong poke'mon of other types. Cause there aren't too many strong fire poke'mon out there (in R/B/Y anyway)
     
    I choose Charmander, cos i love chars XD and charizard is strong yay lol....
     
    The first time I chose Charmander and it was a heck of a fight to try and take down Brock when I first had my first version (Blue). Then I got my next version which was red I think and chose Squirtle and everything went by way faster. Er, I was never really a big fan of Bulbasaur simply because it looked ugly and had this big flower lookin thing on it's back (yeah, what I thought a long time ago lol). So yeah, I think Squirtle would be the best one to start out with in the R/B games simply because I guess you'd just have an easier start. Just uh, hope Gary doesn't rip ur pokemon's head off.
     
    Charmander! It evolves inta Charizard!! It's got more stats points than any other starter, Fire/Flying combo = pwnage unless faced against Rock, Fire Blast accuracy > Hydro Pump accuracy, burns, whatever, ya name it! XD
     
    I agree with Charizard Fire God. Charizard is awesome. It has higher speed, attack, and SA than the other two, and it can learn better moves (ex. Wing Attack/Fly vs Venusaur's (I don't really know a Psn type attack move for Venusaur... That is if it learns one that exists in R/B/Y (Sludge Bomb does not). EQ kills enemy Pikachu/Raichu. They come out for an easy OHKO and get OHKO'd themselves.

    Bulbersuar because he helps you beat the first two gyms.
    I'd agree with that
    but i personally like charmander cuz of its awesome attack moves like slash (good crit. hits) and seismic toss
     
    bulbasaur is supposed to be the best choice, but i chose squirtle on my red and i did fine. i've had the fire starter pokemon before on other games and it grows into a very poweful pokemon! but squirtle's definately my favourite
     
    Bulba helps you early in the game, but Charmander is a powerhouse later. It's your choice whether you want to train other Pokemon (like Butterfree/Beedrill/Pidgey(otto)). Squirtle's in the middle.
     
    For some reason, I always have picked Squirtle... ever since i first got my blue. I've restarted a lot too.
     
    Well, since I'm a fan of Fire Pok?mons, you could guess my starter...
    But in batteling thinking, I think Bulbasaur, because of the effextivity against the 2 first gym.
     
    Thre is no ''best starter'' all of the starters are good in their own ways, what pokemon you think is the best depends on what sort of pokemon you like ex. Tank, Sweeper or staller. I prefer bulbasaur/ivysaur/venusaur though they are very good tanks.
     
    squirtle ALL THE WAY, WATER IS MY FAV. TYPE, next to phychic of course
