What is your favorite starter type?

[John Flame]

Why no peace lol?
 
Both Torterra and Empoleon are great pokémon,though at start youl have a hard time with Piplup.

When they both evolve to their 2nd stage,they are......for me like brothers that are there to cover eachother.

And the same in my opinion happens on the final stage.This two pokémons are  team builders,they drastically affect your team choices and each of them have weaknesses and strengths.

fire is the best because the fire Pokemon is always the most powerful and grass is the weakest.

[PkMn Trainer Black]

that is something I have to disagree on. It's true that grass has more weaknesses than Fire and fire is the higher ranking than the other starters(with the exception of Swampert), but they have counters. Let's take Sceptile for example:

Staraptor? get Rock Slide

Heatran? Earthquake.

Weavile? Focus Blast/Drain Punch/ Brick Break

Drapion? EQ again.

Now torterra, which can take Physical hits well.

Stone Edge for Flying/Ice/Fire pokemon

EQ for Stab and Fire Fighting pokemon & Steel

Seperior:

Iron Tail for Ice Types

Glare for the Fire and flying pokemon

Poision isn't promoted enough.

Venasaur:

EQ for fire

When all is lost, Outrage and Frenzy plant

Meganium:

LS and Reflect for resistance

Iron Tail for Ice

though they (excluding sceptile) don't have acess to some moves, they can still find their ways around.

Good job of being the grass starter supporter.

It's my favoritetype. I've only seen one other person use a grass type, and that was Venusaur. His V-saur and my T-terra were pretty much archenemies. but I'm still playin Diamond so I won't be able to show my wrath until I obtain B/W and 3DS(for wifi).

[Struka]

Well, my favorite pokemon is Bulbasaur, but in all other games i choce some Fire pokemon

[aqua999amazing]

no matter what i always choose a water pokemon

[Gensamer1111]

well, i do like fire but it really depends on the game that im playing, but in silver/crystal/gold im going all in when i say typhlosion

[Juno]

I usually use the ones that are reptilian, but it really depends on animations.. 1st gen Charizard 2nd Feraligatr 3rd Sceptile 4th Torterra 5th Emboar.

[zumarukara]

fire type for me. hehe. Except for Pokemon White i choose leaf

[Flynt]

i choose fire type in most of games.

[BlazingNinetails]

i would always choose fire/fly or just fire pokemons unless the pokemon i want isnt there ill just get grass

[xhizor8201]

I normally always get the water starter cause they can learn an ice type move that helps it againts grass, and most grass types are somewhat slow. I dont usually do it, but they can also learn earthquake. But personally Empoleon is my favorite, plus the great stats.

[emilywake]

I normally go for water because you can easily beat the first gym leader. Unless you can get the seagull-like Pokemon (the one that evolves into Peleper), then I go for the fire type, because the ground and grass types are easy to catch at the beginning of the games.
