Wrong, you shouldn't, you should actually choose Totodile because Feraligatr has very high attack and special attack, but if people say Cyndaquil, if I choose it, it would be because of Quilava.
The evolvence of cindaquil is quilava.
If you want to know what starter Pokemon in emerald you should pick, Treeko because if you pick Torchic it will be harder when you battle the elite4 because Blazikan is so good.If you pick Mudkip you will have a hard time when you battlle your rival. So I would want to pick Treeko.
celebrate, pick a jhoto starter, then go for the national.

you need to pick bulbasaur as your starter then find it randomly in the wild. to get raikou you need to pick squirtle as your starter and to get suicune you need to pick charmander as your starter. i will be getting suicune hence i picked charmander if you didnt pick bulbasaur your S.O.L. XD
inside starter.
cyndaquil p.s. Pikachu is NOT a starter. chikorita is.
Either pick Torchic as your starter and evolve it, or pick Treecko and your rival will have picked Torchic. In the last rival battle, they should have a Blaziken.
Pick him as your starter
You pick it as a starter.
T-R-A-D-E that spells trade (with someone) You need emerald , ruby/sapphire and a link cable. pick one of the three starters in emerald. then pick a starter that you didn't pick in emerald. then trade the starter over to emerald. then pick the starter that you didn't pick at all and trade it over to emerald. now you have all three starters in emerald! hope i helped!
