Planning on playing B/W and its sequels, what starter do you recommend me in any game?

Not a fan of Tepig because Darmanitan wrecks him but i'll accept Tepig suggestions too.

Also good 3ds emulators to play it?

I always go for Tepig in BW because it's pretty fun to use since it has access to a pretty varied movepool and Oshawott in BW2 because there aren't many water types I like in that game

Oshawott is the most consistent. Snivy is kind of weak until it gets Coil extremely late. Also Water types are less common in the Unova games, so Oshawott has less competition.

Oshawott in one, Tepig in the other. You don't want to use Serperior in game, it's awful

It´s just grass and has many weaknesses, but I used it more than once in generation 5.

Oshawott because its Razor Shell

...or whatever, I usually don't use starters

For emulator, use Desmume on PC or Drastic on Android

Oshawott is dependable. I love the Snivy line but Serperior's move pool in game is just awful and it'll be mostly dead weight on your team.

Oshawott for BW. Out of all, the only other Water-type I like are Swanna, so not picking Oshawott really limits the options.
Tepig in BW2. Now I have better Water-type options, so I pick Tepig for Fire/Fighting are fun to use in-game.

Oshawott and Jellicent are the only good Waters in the game. Seismitoad is okay. I'd go with Oshawott really

I think i'm going to stick with your idea since people say Snivy in game is trash.

It's not trash because anything can be okay in game but it's definitely hard mode

They're not wrong. It is trash. It was the first starter I boxed since Meganium.

Seems like someone needs to learn a strategy other than just spamming super effective hits

Box your starter and get either Sawsbuck, Darmanitan or Jellicent.

>during main game
You're quite literally going to have thousands of battles. With nothing at stake. And you WILL win all of them. There's no chance of losing. So all you're getting by using Serperior just means that eventual victory, in those thousands of battles, will take longer. And that's boring.

>>32587821
Yes, yes, exactly.

You'll still be oneshotting the random encounters and the ordinary trainers. It's just in gym battles and the like where the lack of offensive stats puts you at a "disadvantage"

In other words you're a bitch nigga and you need to git gud
