Which starter are you going to choose in HG/SS?

Hello everyone.
Choose the starter you are going to pick up in HeartGold/SouldSilver from the poll and say why you chose him

I am still thinking about choosing either Totodile or Cyndaquil... Any help or suggestion?

[FreezeWarp]

I'm going with Totadile myself, mostly because its bite attack has proven useful in previous games. That is the same reason I generally choose Squirtle in FR/LG.

I'll most likely be picking Chikorita, as I had a lot of fun with it back in the days that I was playing the old Silver version. However, Cyndaquil is a possibility as well. I'll be basing that decision and which game I get on the version exclusives. And I probably won't even be getting this game immediately since I'll most likely be a broke college student who won't be able to afford it.

Cyndaquil for sure! Hes been my buddy since those days of G/S/C (though my crystal still works ive been trying to lv my current team up or teach most of my pokemon moves so i can bring certin moves they can learn on pokmeon red, so i can bring those pokemon stadium that my cousin has)

Fire to the end. I've never once picked a water or grass starter to start a game, and I never will. ;)

When I think about it, I'm not sure I ever use anything but water starters anymore. Originally, in FR/LG, I had picked Bulbasaur and later Charmander, but the last few times I have choosen Squirtle. Likewise, in G/S/C, I had originally tried Cyndaquil, then later Chikorita, but now only use Todatile. In Hoenn, I choose to only use Mudkip, though once (and only once) choose Treeko so I could trade it to Emerald later on. And, the five times I have played through Sinnou (thrice on Diamond, once on Pearl, and once on Platinum) I have only used Piplup. I should try Chimchar sometime, though.

Haha, nice pattern there. You should definitely try Chimchar because of the Fire/Fighting combination. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a TM for Brick Break in Platinum, so the best Fighting type attack I can teach him besides Close Combat is Mach Punch. :(

I'm going to be choosing Cyndiquil as I have done in the past. My favorite Johto Starter and it doesn't mess up with my future Pokemon I want to be in my team.

You must admit, Typhlosion looks very pwnish. :D

Well, that is true. However, I am a fair man. I don't judge how awesome a Pokemon is by their looks. For example, Pikachu...

[SK]

Pikachu is hawt. Lol. All of the final evolutions of the Fire type starters look pretty cool, though. Infernape is borderline.
