Which starter should you pick in Pokemon black and white?

Answer 1

In FR/LG you should get charmander.

In G/S/C you should get totodile.

In R/S/E you should get swampert.

In D/P you piplup or chimchar. When piplup becomes empoleon it will be better, but chimchar is good all the time. (mostly!)

heres mine

In FR/LG you should get Squirtle or Charmander charizrd is really strong but blastoise with hydro pump is also stong plus you can use hm's like surf or waterfall. but all the starters in kanto are awesome even bulbasaur hes really cool

In G/S/C you should get cyndaquil positive that's the best starter its 3rd evoulution is super awesome its the best out of all starters.

In R/S/E you should get mudkip with turns into swampert and is awesome seriously but a treeko is also cool, i feel bad that both of use arent telling you about grass types much.

In D/P you sould get chimchar. chimchar is strong as infernape the best choice for this columm.

Another Wikianswerers opinion:

squirtle

totadile or cyndaquil

treeko

turtwig

Answer 2

you can choose anyone they are all balanced between them

Turtwig is a good choice for beginners, though you may have trouble later on in the game with the Pokemon league. Chimchar is a better choice for experienced players, while Piplup on the other hand is good for intermediate trainers! Whatever you pick catch a starly! They are the key to a strong steam. - PokeFan97

It really depends on your preference and what other Pokemon you've planned for your team. The first gym leader you face is based off which starter you pick anyway with it being strong against yours additionally Snivy is a grass type, its final evolved form is Serperior and it has high speed, Tepig is a fire type, its final evolved form is Emboar (it becomes Fire-Fighting when it evolves) and it has high attack and Oshawott is a water type, its final evolved form is Samurott and it has high special attack.

The Striation City Gym Leader's main Pokemon will have a type advantage. If you choose Snivy, you'll battle the fire monkey Pansear, if you choose Tepig you'll battle the water monkey Panpour and if you choose Oshawott you'll battle the grass monkey Pansage, you can get a monkey of your own by talking to the old lady in the Dreamyard, she will give you the one that is weak to your Starter Pokemon's type but has the advantage against the Gym Leader's Pokemon, you can get your monkey before your Gym battle so it will be very useful and in the case of the monkey that you will get; if you chose Snivy you will get the water monkey Panpour, if you choose Tepig then you will get the grass monkey Pansage and if you choose Oshawott then you will get the fire monkey Pansage.

One recommendation in regards to the choice of Starter is Oshawott since it can learn all of the water HMs and it has balanced stats on Attack and Defense.

Another opinion

This depends on what kind of battler you are. All 3 have a combined base stat of 550 (true with all Starter Pokemon of all Generations). The grass types are good for regular Attack and really good for Speed, the fire types are good for HP and Speed but are really good for regular Attack and the water types' stats are pretty much evenly divided with the exception of Special Attack which is very high. The cons of each include the following. The grass types have low Defense and Special Defense as well as very low HP, the fire types have low Defense and very low Special Attacks and the water types stats are not very special with the exception of the Special Attack so if you want regular Attack stats with very high Speed then you should go for the grass type, if you want HP and Speed with very high regular Attack stats then you should go with fire types and if you want very high Special Attacks and the other stats not very high then you should go with water types.

Here are the exact base stats for each Starter in regards to their types

Grass Type

HP=70, Attack=100, Defense=85, Special Attack=90, Special Defense=85, Speed=120

Fire Type

HP=100, Attack=120, Defense=85,Special Attack=60, Special Defense=90, Speed=95

Water Type

HP=85, Attack=80, Defense=85, Special Attack=130, Special Defense=80, Speed=90

and the exact base stats for the Starters in Black and White are as follows:

Snivy

HP=45, Attack=45, Defense=55, Special Attack=45, Special Defense=55 and Speed=63

Tepig

HP=65, Attack=63, Defense=45, Special Attack=45, Special Defense=45 and Speed=45

Oshawott

HP=55, Attack=55, Defense=45, Special Attack=63, Special Defense=45 and Speed=45.

Answer 4

Its basically up to you.

If you like gameboy, get Firered, or Emerald.

If you like DS, get platinum.
