What starter did you choose?

[snivy trainer]

In D/P Fire types were rare! Infernape or Rapidash... no thoughts there. I take my gameplays in turns, so I use all the starters equally. Currently I've been using Infernape.

[Elysian]

For me, Empoleon is the only choice

[Mangoes]

Piplup is the best! It's certainly the cutest.

[diamondpearl876]

I only choose Chimchar or Piplup. Not a fan of Turtwig or its evolutions at all.

[Lucina Archaelis]

I chose Turtwig when I first played Diamond. It's so cute :3

[HoennDreamer]

Chimchar for Plat

[TheEliteEmpoleon]

I chose chimchar, my first ever pokemon now a lv100 infernape.

Same here, exept with piplup.

[BurningSociety12345543210]

Turtwig. Chimchar is ok, and Piplup? *shivers*

[ThousandDragon]

Chimchar... so Dawn had Piplup like she has in the anime.
AND because Monferno is BEAST!

[~Darkfire~]

I chose Chimchar. He was the coolest looking, to me, and he was a fire type, which is the type I usually start with. (Excluding the fifth gen)

[Torpoleon]

I'm a huge fan of all them, but I mainly used Piplup. Actually, they were all used an even amount.

Diamond: Torterra & Infernape (obviously Infernape was traded)
Pearl: Empoleon
Platinum: Empoleon, Infernape & Torterra

Easily my favorite group of starters.

[John Wallrein]

I picked Turtwig :P

Torrterra is a beast, but I dumped it after I caught my Gible because I liked having Garchomp more than Torterra.

[PopPrincess_Lyra]

Piplup coz I always start with water types. Theyre easy to raise, nya~

[Pkmn Breeder Jack]

Chimchar and Piplup. I'm actually a fan of both of their final evos, and didn't really want to have to choose between them. Though I think I favor Infernape a little more.

[POEtoxx]

I started with Piplup but I ended up getting all of them. Not really a big fan of these starters.

[Loco4Treecko]

Chimchar/Infernape. You know, the one that doesn't take hits very well. Kinda wish I went for Piplup

[iPokemon]

I chose Chimchar

[SuperPichu]

I chose Piplup.

[Arlo]

First time through, on Diamond, I chose Piplup. I tend to like waters anyway, and water/steel is a great typing. I was sort of disappointed though when I found that that meant that Dawn ended up with Chimchar, since... you know... Dawn has a Piplup. So when I later played Platinum, I went with Turtwig so that Dawn would have her Piplup. And Torterra is pretty awesome too. Then, finally, I recently picked up a copy of Pearl, so I'm playing that through with a Chimchar, who's now an Infernape and just demolished the Snowpoint gym.

Turtwig cause his evolution is a Beast!
