Pokémon Favourite Starter Type? 🍃🔥💧

[S.J.]

I always think I want to try something different, and I always end up picking grass regardless. ️

 

[Holla]

I’ve chosen at least one of each type but fire has been my choice more often than not.

Fire: Gen 1,2,3,4,6,8
Water: Gen 7
Grass: Gen 5 & 9

 

[Hatori]

I normally pick water types over the other, but Fire types have been a close second!

i always pick the starter depending on the version i play (unfortunately that means like 99% of the games im either picking fire or water and in emerald i get treecko, that is if i decide to play emerald or give it to a family member) but other than that there are some good picks i like:
Kanto: Charmander, he looks cool
Johto: Totodile, I don't want to hurt my plushies feelings
Hoenn: ok actually i dont know here, probably torchic because it evolves into blaziken, it looks cool it looks like ssj3 goku if he combed his hair
Sinnoh: piplup, i love penguins
Unova: tepig, big fire pig go brrr
Kalos: Mainly froakie, because greninja looks so cool, but fennekin is adorable so im torn between the two
Alola: fire cat
Galar: gonna be honest either sobble or scorbunny
Paldea: sprigatito

This is a chart that I filled out showing all the starters that I've picked! I do have the same amount of grass and water types (4 each) but I generally have a preference for grass and only pick water if I don't like the grass option and I get suuuuper attached to my grass type starters! The only fire type I've picked was Scorbunny and that's just because I thought Scorbunny was way too cute to not choose but I did love all of the starters of that gen!

I picked the grass starter in most of the games I've played, so I'd say thats my favorite. I've chosen water and fire starters before too though.

 

[CovisGod]

I've played every single Pokemon game since Red & Blue and have ALWAYS for some reason gone for the grass starter. I think years ago I read that one Pokemon games first gym was easier if you picked the Grass starter and thats always stuck with me!

Surprised to see that Fire is losing! I definitely tend to prefer the Fire starter, though I've chosen all three at different times depending on the generation. My rankings are:


KANTO: Bulbasaur > Charmander > Squirtle

JOHTO: Cyndaquil > Chikorita > Totodile

HOENN: Torchic > Treecko > Mudkip (I LOVE Mudkip but Swampert is my least favorite final evo)

SINNOH: Piplup > Chimchar > Turtwig. (Gen 4 is by far the most equal to me--I could see myself choosing any of these three, really)

UNOVA: Snivy > Oshawott > Tepig (Forever heartbroken that my beloved boar got turned into a Pokemon and it was a horrible flat egg)

KALOS: Fennekin > Chespin > Froakie

ALOLA: Rowlet > Popplio > Litten (My least favorite Gen . . . I'm not attached to any of these guys sadly)

GALAR: Sobble > Grookey > Scorbunny

PALDEA: Fuecoco > Sprigitito > Quaxley. (I adore Fuecoco and don't much care for the other two)

That's 4 first choices for Fire, 3 first choices for Grass, and 2 first choices for Water. Interestingly, Grass type is the least likely to be my least favorite, so I guess I find the Grass starter designs to be the most consistent.

Of all the starters, my all-time favorites are Cyndaquil, Snivy, Sobble, and Fuecoco, with Cyndaquil and Snivy being two of my top 10 Pokemon ever.

 

[RoxiePico]

Fire is my least picked type, and I pick water types more than grass types. I mostly just go off how cute/cool the starter looks :3

 

[BakaRina]

If I have to pick a favorite typing between Fire, Grass or Water for the three starters, I'll go Fire then Water then Grass unless I happen to like the Water Starters design more than the Grass one.

Kanto: Charizard > Blastoise > Venusaur.

I always had a preference on Charizard than the others for being the first starter I choose a lot over the others when I was a kid. But I do like the others whenever I get bored and wanna do a playthrough with them.

Johto: Feraligatr = Typhlosion > Meganium

Honestly, I like both Feraligatr and Typhlosion more than Meganium as the Pokemon does not learn good moves to beat the other two. I like Meganium's design but the moveset just sucks for me in the Johto games.

Hoenn: Blaziken = Swampert = Sceptile

I like their designs and the first type I'll say I picked all three starters a lot back then. All good movesets and I enjoy using each equally. though Blaziken will always be my favorite first starter for hitting level 100.

Sinnoh: Infernape > Torterra > Empoleon

Unova: Emboar > Samurott > Serperior

Kalos: Greninja > Chesnaught > Delphox

Alola: Incineroar > Decidueye > Primarina

Galar: Rillaboom = Inteleon = Cinderace

Hisui: H-Decidueye = H-Typhlosion = H-Samurott

Paldea: Meowscarada = Skeledirge =Quaquaval

Not much to mention as I got lazy but some I have a preference over the others for being starters I like using more or just equally.
