    Which starter are you going to choose in Black & White?



    Personally, I'm going to go for the Grass-type Starter, Snivy. I always like to choose the Grass-type starter. I started with Bulbasaur in Red, Blue, FireRed, and LeafGreen, Chikorita in Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver, Treecko in Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, and Turtwig in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. How about you?

    What do you mean when you say "the other one?"

    I was originally planning on getting Tsutarja, but I've been having second thoughts lately. I'll have to wait until all is revealed about the starters and their evolutions before I completely make up my mind.

    I have to get Tsutaja or else the grass water combo I have for picking them will be broken. Silver (I got started with Pokemon in the GSC era so I never had any of the first games): Totodile Crystal: Chikorita Saphire: Treecko Emerald: Mudkip FireRed: Bulbasaur Pearl: Piplup Platinum: Turtwig HeartGold: Totodile and the next one shall be Tsutaja.

    Mijumaru for me. If I get both versions then I will get Tsutarja on that version. Pokabu would be the third version then or I will trade to get Pokabu.

    I'm probably getting Mijumaru. Though I'm a big fan of fire-type starters, I'm deciding to mix up my roster a bit for the newer generations. Also, it looks frickin adorable.

    Well usually I pick the starter with the coolest looking last evolution. I went for Charmander, Chimchar, and Torchic mostly.

    Also due to all except the Johto first Gyms being Rock-types, Fire-types have most often been considered the most difficult of the Starters to start out with. Hopefully Isshu will break this Rock-type Gym being the first gym habit...

    Pics of Dento's gym shpw is has a lot of rocks in it. Also, I really hoe Ash gets Mijumaru cin Isshu, I mean, none of the Water Pokemon starters have been getting any love from Ash in the recent generations.

    Or they started to hate the Mijumaru haters once hating Mijumari was too mainstream in the pokemon community, even if they did hate that fugly thing lol. Anyway, Pokabu for me, fire ftw.
