I've played the game twice, with Snivy and Oshowatt. They have their ups and downs, but they are far easier to use than Tepig, who my friend has and says (an exact quote:) "It's impossible to beat some of these gyms and it's so SLOW!"
So, Snivy or Oshowatt. If you have a friend who has played the game already and has the opposite starter you want of the two, ask them to go Giant Chasm and find a Ditto. Then, they can breed the opposite starter you got. (Picked Snivy, get Oshowatt. Picked Oshowatt, get Snivy.) Try to evenly level them up. With the two of them on your side, nothing is impossible.
Yes, you do get to choose a starter Pokemon in Pokemon Black and White Versions.
Black and White are the games. Best Wishes is the anime series that Ash is in Unova. He doesn't pick a starter, since he already got his starter (Pikachu) from Proffesor Oak. He catches all the starters though.
Never go Oshawoot!
First,you get your first White starter.After that,you trade with someone else who has a different starter and plays Black or White.
Yes
No

You have to trade a starter to another Pokemon white or black game then trade the Pokemon back.
Snivy, the grass starter. Tepig, the fire starter. Oshawatt, the water starter.
