Which johto starter should i choose

I can't decide which Johto starter to choose. I almost have different pokemon in my Emerald pokedex so now I'm wondering which should I choose. Chikorita, Cyndaquil, or Totodile? Cyndaquil is the one I always used in Crystal and is one of my favorites. Totodile and Feraligatr are some of my favorites and I could use another strong water type other then Pelipper.

Or should I choose Chikorita and gain a strong grass type besides my Sceptile who is in training? I'm not sure, so I'm asking for suggestions. If this has already been asked Im pretty sure it has but don't know for sure or where or is in the wrong forum area then sorry.

Thanks for the help - Brit. Pokemanyak Little VoltTackler. I would choose Cyndaquil. He is the strongest Johto Starter. He might be helpful in Frontier.

I'm guessing you don't have Colosseum or XD? If so, then just choose which one you like the most. Without those, you can't get more Johto starters unless you restart your Emerald, so it won't hurt or help you dex-wise to pick a certain one. Either Cyndaquil or Totodile. In fact, Bayleef looks more menacing than its final evolution, though we don't know if that's a point in Bayleef's favor or a knock against Meganium.

The first stage starters in this generation really are iconic. We love its little chompy mouth and the bright red spikes on its back are a great accent to the otherwise cool colors of its design. Also, the markings on its chest kind of make it look like it's wearing a life jacket, which is adorable for a Water-type. We want to be Totodile's friend, and we think it would want to be friends too.

Far and away the coolest and most terrifying evolution of the bunch is Totodile's final form, Feraligatr. The threat of its huge mouth and sharp teeth have been turned up to eleven, not to mention its sharp claws, bright red spines, and armored scales. But something about its design also allows it to maintain some of the mischievous cheer of its prevolutions in the right light. Just be careful your Feraligatr knows its own strength.

And here we are with the cream of the crop. Cyndaquil really hits the nail on the head, straddling a line between absolutely adorable and prickly playing-hard-to-get. It's clearly based on an echidna, and so the fire that bursts from its base function like an echidna's spines; Cyndaquil uses them for protection if it's startled or angry.

That can make getting to know a reluctant Cyndaquil quite a challenge, but it's worth it. Here you can see how much of Cyndaquil's great look is lost when it evolves —it's top-heavy body, its long nose, and its perpetually squinted eyes.

But we can still appreciate how cute it is. Forza Horizon 5 addresses you by the name on your Microsoft account, but for some trans players, that has unexpected consequences.

I prefer water type starters and Totodile in my opinion is really good because mostly of it's defense and attack. Made Heartgold early in the game a lot easier since the gym leaders didn't have an advantage over Totodile at first. Centipede Chan. United States. When I used to be a major genwunner I always picked the fire starter. Oh god, this is such a hard choice.

I am never usually one for the fire starter but I love cyndaquil to bits. Chikorita is, well, grass and grass types have always been my favorite starters. Totodile was the first one of the three I had ever chosen when I had first started playing Gold.

This is my favorite trio of starters hands down, but I went for Totodile I had to bring Chomper back. If only I could choose all three I just ended up asking my friend for the other two so I could breed them. Currently Hunting:. United Kingdom. I chose Totodile iirc.
