Do you prefer Fire, Water, or Grass starters?
>>58823041It’s crazy to think that in the first two Gen I picked the water starters and back then I saw myself as a water starter person.Then never picked another in 23 years.
water has the moment consistent in quality from the start, even if it does have the most horrific drop with the last two

>>58823061Impressive, very nice. Let's see Paul Allen's shit taste
>>58823041In terms of my favorites for each set, it's like this>Grass: 2>Snivy>Chespin>Fire: 3>Cyndaquil>Litten>Fuecoco>Water: 4>Squirtle>Mudkip>Piplup>SobbleOnly 7 more weeks until I get to see if the balance in my preference shifts somewhat. Hoo-ray.
>>58823041Mostly water, except on gen 4 because I hate the stupid penguin and Torterra is the coolest thing ever.Haven't played gen 8 and 9 but I wouldn't pick the water starters there either, the duck looks awful and the gecko is lame as hell, the other two starters are way better in both gens.
Taking into account the whole lines.>bulbasaur: objectively perfect monster design but not my personal fav 9/10>chikorita: don't hate it but quite boring 4/10>treecko: cool and awesome 10/10>turtwig: badass turtle with a tree on its back, what's not to love? 10/10>snivy: don't like the smug look but serperior is not bad 6/10>chespin: chespin and chesnaught are good designs 8/10>rowlet: don't like first two but decidueye is fine despite being humanoid 6/10>grookey: i like grookey but fuck the others 2/10>grass cat forgot name: no 0/10Grass total: 55>charmander: great design but never felt anything for it 7/10>cyndaquil: love them 10/10>torchic: too humanoid for me but saves it by being cool and not gay like nu-gen starters 7/10>chimchar: always found it and monferno annoying but infernape is ok 6/10>tepig: emboar is overhated but don't like the first two 5/10>fennekin: don't care about them and braixen is too much 2/10>litten: fuck incineroar 1/10>scorbunny: no 0/10>fuecoco: best switch era starter but that's not saying much 3/10Fire total: 41>squirtle: a turtle with cannons, fuck yeah 10/10>totodile: an alligator brute, fuck yeah 10/10>mudkip: a mud fish monster, fuck yeah 10/10>piplup: an emperor penguin inspired by napoleon, fuck yeah: 10/10>oshawott: first water dud, oshawott is the only good one: 2/10>froakie: i secretly like frogadier more, but a ninja frog, fuck yeah 10/10>gen 7 seal thing: no 0/10>sobble: whoever designed this line should be thrown off a cliff 0/10>quaxly: same as above but also skinned alive beforehand 0/10Water total: 52Water has more of my favourites, but I guess Grass is more consistent overall.
>>58823041Gonna go for Grass on this one
>>58823041I go with whatever starter has the best design then I look for my regional pikachu
>>58823041Not always absolutes here, some gens I like all starters (like gens 1, 2, and 4), some gens I pretty much hate all three (like gens 8 and 9)
Grass>Water>Fire, but it varies wildly from gen to gen
Water was consistently the best until the duck broke our streak...
>>58823881Blasturd and feraligayturd will never be good
>>58823041>Gen 1Charmander>Gen 2Totodile>Gen 3Treecko>Gen 4Chimchar>Gen 5Oshawott>Gen 6Froakie>Gen 7RowletGen 8Scorbunny>Gen 9FuecocoFire starters
>>58823178as long as you have sobble and quaxly in last you have good taste
>>58823041water
>>58823881*seal
>>58824498*Turtle
>>58824498the only bad thing about Primarina is the 87.5% male ratio
>>58824635>Barafaggot calling other people's taste shit How ironic
grass almost every time ('cept squirtle and tepig)
>>58823178an almost even distribution. Technically grass wins by being picked 2nd more than any other type.
