Your starter by region?

We may shuffle around and try all kinds of different starters as we revisit a region. Do you remember which pokemon you reached for the very first time?

Me?

Kanto= Charmander
Johto= Cyndaquil
Hoenn= Treecko (That was hard, I so love all of em!)
Sinnoh= Turtwig
Unova= Snivy
Kalos= Froakie (Really tough decision too)
Alola= Popplio
 
Kanto: Squirtle
Johto: Totodile
Hoenn: Treeko
Sinnoh: Piplup
Unova: Oshawott
Kallos: Froakie
Alola: Popplio

I'm always going to choose the water starter, besides in Hoenn
 
Kanto - Charmader/Squirtle
Johto - Totodile
Hoenn - Mudkip
Sinnoh - Piplup
Unova - Snivy
Kalos - Froakie
Alola - Popplio

I'm always indecisive when it comes to the Kanto starter.
 
Kanto: Bulbasaur
Johto: Chikorita
Hoenn: Torchic
Sinnoh: Turtwig (Though I am not crazy about any of them)
Unova: Snivy
Kalos: Fennekin
Alola: Popplio
 
Kanto: Charmander
Johto: Cyndaquil
Hoenn: Treecko
Sinnoh: no one
Unova: Snivy
Kalos: Fennekin
Alola: Rowlet
 
Kanto= Squirtle
Johto= Chikorita
Hoenn= Mudkipz
Sinnoh= Turtwig
Unova= Oshawott
Kalos= Chespin
Alola= Rowlet

Just realized my first run of a region was never with a fire starter...
 
Kanto: Squirtle
Johto: Cyndaquil
Hoenn: Mudkip
Sinnoh: Piplup
Unova: Snivy
Kalos: I never played X or Y, but I would have chosen Fennekin
Alola: Rowlet
 
Kanto: Bulbasaur
Johto: All of them
Hoenn: Treecko
Orre: Espeon
Sinnoh: Chimchar or Turtwig
Unova: Oshawott or Snivy
Kalos: Fennekin
Alola: Popplio
 
Kanto : Charmander but I was a kid and didn't finish, Squirtle (Finished the game)
Johto : Totodile (then I did a nuzlocke with Cyndaquil)
Hoenn : Treeko (did a nuzlocke with Torchic)
Sinnoh : Chimchar (nuzlocke with Turtwig)
Unova : Oshawott
Kalos : Haven't played it but would choose Froakie
Alola : Haven't played but would choose Rowlett

Note: I did nuzlockes after playing through the games. I played through Silver with Totodile, then Cyndaquil, Then SoulSilver with Totodile then nuzlocke with Cyndaquil.(I know I've played Johto too many times)
 
Kanto-Squirtle
Johto-Cyndaquil
Hoenn-really like Torchic but I'm gonna go with my first ever starter, Mudkip
Sinnoh-Piplup
Unova-Oshawott
Kalos-Fennekin
Alola-Rowlet

If I really like a grass type starter then you know it's good lol
 
Kanto - charmander
Johto - cyndaquil
Hoenn - torchic
Sinnoh - turtwig
Unova - oshawott
Kalos - fennekin
Alola - popplio

when i first played gold for some reason i thought i could only select the first pokeball on the table which was cyndaquil, otherwise i would have picked chikorita. loooooool

We all do stuff like that on our first game teehee. In yellow I didn't know you could change the order of your party. I thought Pikachu had to always be first so mine participated in every single battle in the game. I never figured it out. Lol!
 
Kanto: Squirtle/Pikachu(Yellow Version)

Johto: N/A

Hoenn: Mudkip

Sinnoh: Piplup

Unova: Teipig

Kalos: Froakie

Alola: Popplio/Rowlet
 
Kanto: Charmander
Johto: Cyndaquil
Hoenn: Torchic
Sinnoh: Chimchar
Unova: Tepig
Kalos: Fennekin
Alola: Litten

I always go with the Fire starter on my first playthrough of a Pokemon game. And with the exception of Unova (Oshawott's my favorite of the 3, but Tepig is still a solid #2), the Fire starter is always my favorite starter. I wonder if gen 8 will change this.
 
Kanto: Charmander (though I prefer Squirtle these days)
Johto: Chikorita (my first Starter ever)
Hoenn: Treecko
Sinnoh: Piplup
Unova: Oshawott
Kalos: Chespin (I was tempted to go for Fennekin, but I'm not a fan of Delphox)
Alola: Rowelt (my least-favorite of the Basics, but Decidueye is cool)
