Cool Starter Pokemon

[yeshi160]

What would be some cool Pokemon Starters in R/S.

I couldn't think of any cool ones besides the real ones. ANYONE?!

 

[Alxprit]

Are you saying you don't want to play through R/S with your starter?

 

[Meririn]

Just an Eevee, and the rival gets a Pikachu.

 

[Mewtwo]

POOCHYENA!
But yeah. I think he just means what would be cool to have as a starter, instead of the three you have to get.
Also, Tailow would be cool ^^

 

[Notoriously Unknown]

POOCHYENA!

Also, Tailow would be cool ^^

I agree with both of those. Poochyena is just awesome and Tailow holds some nostalgic signifigance for me. :)

Other than those two I'd ask for Zigzagoon and Skitty... And maaaaybe Meouth too. His payday would help a lot in the beggining.

 

[Kali the Flygon]

Trapinch! :D

Hmm, what else to start with? Ummm... Spheal I guess would be good.. and there should be an Electric type choice... but R/S has very few electrics, and no complete 3-pokémon lines. Electrike's the closest, I guess.

 

[Charizard Morph]

I was gonna say trapinch............

How about Bagon? Or Seedot?

 

[Alxprit]

I say go for Shroomish. Breloom is way cool to me.

 

[Invader Palkia]

Hmm, I think...
Koffing and Grimer! :D
They're some of my favorite pokemon. :D
Them, or... Wailmer and Numel?
... And Spoink! :D
I'd like a Spoink as a starter.

 

[Evolutionary]

Fire: I could see Vulpix as a starter, it seems to make much sense and it learns Ember right off the bat. Growlithe is possible but doesn't seem to fit as well.

Water: Hmm, Spheal seems a good choice, surprisingly I can't seem to think of many water starters.

Grass: I would say Budew but this is RS :( Uh...Oddish?

Other: Skitty, Eevee, Riolu and really any of the PMD starters make sense.

 

[VelvetEspeon]

Just an Eevee, and the rival gets a Pikachu.

That would be nice. :evil:

 

[Dannichu]

Once on Sapphire I actually dumped my starter in a PC the first chance I got and traded over two completely random eggs from my Ruby game. They turned out to be a Growlithe and Spinarak, and I finished the game with an Arcanine and Ariados as my two strongest Pokemon :)

 

[Kali the Flygon]

Last time I played Sapphire, I traded a Trapinch egg from Ruby. Then I spent half the game EV-training the trapinch and the other half beating the game with him. I ended up beating the E4 with a Flygon and 5 weaklings for HMs;)

 

[Aisling]

I "started" Platinum with a Kangaskhan, but I hatched her in Pearl so I could make her forget, uh... I think she hatched with Earthquake and Avalanche from her daddy? She was uber enough starting with Comet Punch. Earthquake and Avalanche would just be game-breaking. :B
Since she wasn't "mine" I had a spot of trouble with her until the Eterna gym, though.

 

[Shiny Grimer]

That is genius, and I am so doing that if I ever get Platinum.

Of course, knowing me, I'd probably trade over an egg of my starter, but eh. :x I might end up with an awesome Azumaril or Magneton.

I suggest the trio of awesome:
Bedlum
Bagon
Trapinch

At least the fully evolved Pokemon will be useful. :o

 

[Slartibartfast]

Ralts, Poochyena, and Makuhita. Let's get the almost-type triangle a spot in the starters. Not that any of these are particularly cool, but...

 

[Invader Palkia]

I suggest the trio of awesome:
Beldum
Bagon
Trapinch

At least the fully evolved Pokemon will be useful. :o

yah, but would you really want to train a Beldum? I always pop mine in the daycare 'cause you have to take them to the Pokemon center every 10 battles or so. Even if you beat everything in one hit. :/

 

[Autumn]

You could always do double battles and Skill Swap the Beldum Rock Head...

 

[Invader Palkia]

I suppose, but it would still be hard to train early in the game.

 

[Erika]

Oddish.
