Pokémon Poll: Best Starter?

Key · 07-28-2018, 07:10 PM

Who would you consider to be the best starter or starters in the entirety of the Pokemon games? I know there's a lot, but I would personally put my vote toward any of the 3rd gen starters. Specifically I would go with Torchic since I had a lot of fun building up my Blaziken on my first playthrough of Pokemon Ruby. So much fun to play and such a good game as well. I love the 3rd gen over any of the others so yeah.

Please wait about 5 minutes for a poll. I'll be working on it when this thread goes up.

I gotta say anything right of the first column is straight garbo. What even are those things?

I voted bulbasaur btw because I like plants and he's the only starter I ever used.

nah im not talking about who is cool. im talking about being a good pokemon. psychic typing was broke as **** in gen 1 because sp att and sp defense was one stat and alakazam had the highest in the game with no real weaknesses. go play back the original games with a team of psychic pokemon and you'll see.

i really like him too, not just in gen 1, but overall as a pokemon. i really like how abra is a totally **** pokemon that's difficult to catch because of teleport, but becomes totally worth it once you get him fully evolved and just becomes a damage dealing monster.

Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle? They have pretty clear designs. Unless you meant "row" and not "column".

I'm well aware that Psychic was broken but Arcanine mauls. It was supposed to be a legendary at first and still has sick stats because of it.

No, I meant column. I said anything to the right of the first column (bulb, squirt, & char) idk and they suck.

How does one go right of the first row?
