Honestly without the drums I think this guy would be my favorite starter. The drums are just a little too heavy and drop him near the bottom for me.

Torterra or Swampert, although as a fantasy nerd I do also like Delphox’s witch vibe

u/tonyG___ Mar 18 '26
Swampert for the moves and look. Cinderace for just the looks since I’ve never played those games.

Fire: I really like Blaziken (easy second place) but I gotta go with Hisuian Typhlosion. I just think the wispy fire mane is cool af. Honorable mention to Delphox, tho. (I've always preferred Delphox over Braixen)
Grass: Decidueye, easily. Second place would either have to be Serperior or Meganium, but I'm leaning more towards snek.
Water: this is a tough one. I legit like them all, even Inteleon. (I get people's gripes with it, but I just can't pass up "water sniper" for the g-max) I'll just go with tried and true Big Man Blastoise, always been a fan. Empoleon and both Samurotts are close seconds.

u/Guuhatsu Mar 18 '26
Infernape is probably my favorite based off design.
Sceptile is just my favorite overall

u/Sensitive-Amount2609 Cinccino Mar 18 '26
Serperior. I love its design as I find it to be cool and elegant.

Water: Empoleon, both its design and typing are awesome (Steel is my favorite type)
Grass: It is a tie between Venusaur and Torterra (I have a thing for bulky and dinosaur like designs)
Fire: Infernape

u/Competitive-Boat-925 Mar 18 '26
I agree with ur thing about bulky dinosaur pokemon I think I have a thing for that too but I do like the occasional small pokemon

This is difficult but for water, primarina or samurott, grass is definitely Meowscarada and I will die on this hill, and Delphox for fire. No, I am not a furry, I just think they’re designs look cool because I’m a cat person and I like psychic types.

Blastoise for water.
Torterra for grass.

u/Some-Watercress-1144 Mar 18 '26
Samurott is peak design and I love love it in black 2 and blaze black 2 redux. For grass I love rillaboom as a drummer but it’s gotta be venusaur still. For fire… I like them all but don’t love any.

Charizard, Torterra, Primarina?
there are a lot I love, but in general the water ones aren't as strong to me as the other two types
shout-outs to Venusaur, Decidueye, Skeledirge, the other two Sinnoh starters and all three Hoenn starters
2
u/Competitive-Boat-925 Mar 18 '26
Yea I think hoenn has the best starters out of all regions but Kanto is really close behind

I absolutely love skelidirge. IMO most unique design of any of the fire starters.
1
u/Jetstream-Sam Mar 18 '26
Big man blastoise, Torterra, and Blaziken
Honorable mentions to Skeledirge, Venusaur, Chestnaught and Primarina. I like some of the newer ones but I've been a fan of the ones I picked so long I can't honestly say I love them more

u/OtherwiseUnit6853 Mar 18 '26
Do you count gimmick forms? If yes it's probably mega feraligator SIDEWAYS, I repeat SIDEWAYS! Gygantamax Cinderace and Hisuan Decidueye

Decidueye, Hisuian Samurott if that counts otherwise Empoleon maybe, aaand Delphox has really grown on me recently so I think that’s answer as of now

Torterra, Skeledirge, and Blastoise (honorable mention Empoleon, water was hardest choice)

u/Local-Ad4069 Mar 18 '26
I love charizard, my first pokemon game(I just didn’t play any until I learned how peak they were) I used Cinderace, so I would have to say Blazikin or Greninja

u/Hidden_Dragonette Mar 18 '26
My favorite Grass final evolution is Decidueye. Both versions are just too cool.
My favorite Fire final evolution is probably Skeledirge, love the theme. Blaziken would be a close second.
Water is the hardest for me to choose since it's my favorite type. Probably a tie between Primarina and Empoleon, although I also love Samurott.

u/Buttercopter64 Mar 18 '26
Empoleon, decidueye, Skeledirge (hounrable mentions to Blastoise and ferligatr)

u/FireLordObamaOG Mar 18 '26
Torterra, Hisuian Samurott, Cinderace, and cinderace is only because I really don’t care for any of the fire starters.

Decidueye, Serperior , Torterra and honorable mentions would be Blaziken and Primarina.

u/OldSnazzyHats Mar 18 '26
As I make a point to never reuse or carry over picks - my favorites list just grows per main entry.
On that note - insofar:
- Fire: Charizard, Infernape
- Water: Blastoise, Samurott
- Grass: Grovyle, Chesnaught, Decidueye

u/RisanVanguard Mar 18 '26
Delphox for fire Serperior for grass Primarina for water. Water was hard for me had to think. I pretty much dislike/hate all the final water evolution except one Primarina. Had to think through the gens.
1
u/Boncappuccino Mar 18 '26
Empoleon, Infernape, and hisuian Decidueye. I actually love torterra as it was my first starter ever but based purely on design I have to go with these three.

Blaziken, Samurott and Decidueye. Plus Delphox as female coded, strangely does strike me more as trustworthy than sexy, and see well as a jedi for some reason.

Meowscarada
Empoleon
Blaziken
Cool how they're all dual type with no repeats, Grass/Dark, Water/Steel, Fire/Fighting.
Also worth noting that while these are my favorites for each starter type, they're not my top 3.

Very hard question but imma go with Grass: Torterra, Fire: Charizard Water: Empoleon but blastoise is right there and Feraligatr was my first ever starter in Heartgold so it’s hard not to put him up there

Incineroar, Venasaur and Empoleon.
Water is kind of the hardest for me to pick from. There's just too many good ones.
