I like water starters the most and think fire starters are weakest design-wisely. Grass starters have good designs but are mostly shit in battles.
My favourite starter is still Totodile line.

I like playing monotype runs, though. Monobug, Monoflying, Monorock, and Monodark are the most fun.

Scorbunny is cute but will likely be bad, Grookey is cool and seems like the safest bet

Thanks.
I'm hoping we get a nice early-game mon this time. Corviknight looks promising if the rumors of it being the Pidgey-equivalent are true.

Out of the three fire is my favorite type but I pick my starter based on looks and nothing else so that doesn't matter. I like cute first evos and tough final evos. Bonus points for something I can use in pvp (fucking whiped the floor with Empoleon and aqua jet + its decent steal defense in my college league a few times).

Grass = 2/7
Fire = 2/7
Water = 3/7

All the Gen 8 starters look bad so far

I usually gravitate to the fire starter, but grass sometimes pulls me over.

Doing this I realized I have never picked a fire starter. So I guess for Shield I will roll with Scorbunny just to change things up. And as for favorite it’s still Bulbasaur as it’s still the only poison starter we’ve got.

I’d say I like grass and water equally. Mudkip and bulbasaur are my favorite boys.

No, to me it just feels almost wrong in a sense to do so. For a first run at least.

Why? Starters don't mean anything in particular. I find it more meaningful to start your journey with something you caught yourself near your home.

Turtwig, Torchic, and Bulbasaur were the best experiences.
>Which one is your favorite type?
Grass.
>Are you a monotype kinda person?
Primarily Grass but not intentionally, they typically are objectively the best option. Secondary Fire. I've done playthroughs with Water but only one ever clicked, and I still put it in second-rate.

First gen, as a kid, I always picked Squirtle.
Second gen, as a kid, I alternated between Totodile and Cyndaquil.
Third gen I picked Mudkip every time.

At this point I began to play Pokémon more seriously. I gradually shifted through many replays to mainly choose Bulbasaur and Cyndaquil.

Fourth gen I picked Piplup, always have always will
Fifth gen I picked Tepig and I LOVED him. So much so, in fact, that I went and got the fire symbol tatted and swore to myself that I would pick the Fire starter from there on out.

Then they made Fennekin and Tony the Tiger and I fucking hate myself for it. I chose them but boxed them before long. Now Scorbunny is lining up to be the lamest of the three for the third fucking gen in a row. I am doomed to never enjoy a starter Pokémon again, I’ve made a fool’s deal with the devil.
