I enjoy having one starter for my play through. My starter is the center attraction, it is the leader. Isn't that how it's supposed to be?
I can't stand those people who will start a game, get a starter, trade it over, start again, get the other, trade again, and start one last time and then use all three for a play through. It's a good way to obtain them for dex entries, but to actually use? Fucking plebs.
