Pokémon Help me pick my starter

[pokedude729]

I'm starting a black 2 randomized Nuzlocke, and my options for my starter are Slakoth, Magby, and Pipilup.
Which do you guys think I should go with?

 

[LambdaDelta]

magby because slaking's ability is garbage and the other is a standard starter

hey, do you know how to edit a poll, as I set it to close after 2 days, when I meant to only close it after 1?

You can't but it isn't a problem really, just check the voted after a day.

Piplup all the way.

I fixed it for you.

Magby. Not that fond of Piplup and idk Slakoth have too many weaknesses for my taste

 

[Nay]

Slakoth for the challenge

 

[JamesParker]

Why is Magby losing. Magmortar is just the best!

 

[Shimmer]

Piplup! Water types are always fun to play around with.

I think it's because, since to randomizer it's on an emulator, so I can't trade the Magmar.

Just do what a lot of people (me included) do in nuzlockes:
-Look at the last number of your Trainer ID card
-If that number is 1, 2, or 3, you pick the first pokemon (in your case, Slakoth)
-If that number is 4, 5, or 6, you pick the second/middle pokemon (Magby)
-If that number is 7, 8, or 9, you pick the third pokemon (Piplup)
-If that number is a 0, either pick whichever you want, or use the next number in your Trainer ID card

Personally, I'd go with Piplup, but only cause I've never trained one before out of that list, and it's fun to use pokemon you've never trained before.

This. It keeps it more random and gives you less control over your team which to me is the entire point of a Nuzlocke.

I also tend to restart the game if my trainer card ends with a '0' so that I have no choice in it at all.

When it comes to a gift Pokemon where they give you a choice of two, I pick it based on whether the number is odd or even. If like in X/Y it gives you a choice of 3 I just pick it the same way as my starter.

Slakoth is what I'd pick. Despite the ability, Slaking is an amazing Pok?mon. You should get some good damage out of that slacker.
