I might choose Naetel just so Yuuki has Hikozaru x3 (come on, Hikozaruu is the perfect match for that crazy guy x3)
But I won't acctually use Naetel. I'll trade it for an egg of... either Achamo, Hikozaruu, Pochama, Hitokage, Kamigame, Kimori, Chikorita, or Hinoarashii.
No way. I've played through most of diamond with piplup, then restarted it and chose chimchar and i didnt like him much either.
Im sticking with my turtwig! :P
Hes great..... But anything in-game is great
Depends on if I ever find my pearl game or not, but considering I just realized it was lost today (even if I have looked EVERYWHERE for it), I'm still optimistic. Either way, I'm probably gonna pick Piplup, who I did pick in pearl, however, if I find pearl I'm gonna actually trade it away for an egg containing another pokémon that I feel fits as a good "starter" and go through the game as if I had picked this new pokémon at the beginning (which, really, actually matters to me, as they always stay in my party from that point on)
I haven't decided which pokémon I'm gonna use yet, I'll probably make a bunch of different eggs from ones I like, and pick one randomly.
I started with Piplup, and I may stay with Piplup or get Chimchar or Turtwig. I'll probably stay with Piplup though. Never really like Chimchar and Turtwig much. Infernape's cry is too annoying to me. >.<
When I first got Pearl imported from Japan, I went with Piplup. When it arrived in the States, I knew I was getting the Manaphy egg from Pokemon Ranger on the same day, so I went with Chimchar instead.
When my copy of Platinum arrives, I'll probably have went with Turtwig for a change. Except I already have a Shaymin to transfer over, so I'll probably go with my beloved Piplup again.
I chose Turtwig in my Diamond version, but I'm planning on picking Piplup in Platinum. Normally, I try to have completely different Pokemon on my teams between versions.
I picked Chimchar in my pearl(Japanese) and English version, and I picked Chimchar for my Platinum version. I don't know why, but I used to hate chimchar, now it's one of my favorite pokemon.
Yes. Turtwig sucked. I hated having him in my party. I've always been partial to fire starters (I've used Charmander as long as I can remember) and I think I'll continue that trend in Platinum. Grass sucks.
In Diamond I started with Piplup (both times I started), but I usually start with a Grass type in the beginning. I think, though, for a change, when Platinum (eventually) comes to the UK, I'll start with Turtwig to force me to rethink my team - I get kinda set in my 'formula' and sometimes have to shake things up to get out of it.
I started with Piplup on my Pearl game, and loved it, but I'm thinking of picking something different if I do end up getting Platinum. Chimchar would get through the gyms easily, but I've picked the fire starters in all the past games. I'll have to decide whether to get the game and give it some thought then.
