Do you use your starter Pokemon?

I feel guilty trading away my Rowlet for a Popplio in Ultra Sun.

Their base stats are too high in vanilla runs.

I'm a serial starter boxer but that has a lot to do with most starters being buttfuck ugly.

You played every game? Have you no standards? What else do you do for fun??? I genuinely don’t understand how any self respecting adult can stomach pouring hours of their life into modern Pokémon.

I grew up with the series. I played them all as they came out, with the exceptions being gens 5 and 6. I did go back and play them later. We aren't all as young as you.

Every time I replay one of the games, my team MUST be entirely comprised of Pokemon I have never used before
So if I've already used all 3 starters, they're going in the box

>Yellow - Yes, he's my dude
>GSC - Yes, Chikorita always
>RSE- Yes, best set of starters
>DPPt - The pokemon selection is so bad you kind of need to
>BW/BW2 - Yes, Snivy always
>XY - No, first gen I ever skipped using my starter, plenty of Pokemon to replace it anyways
>SM/USUM - No, I really like Decidueye, but I like Tsareena more, so I boxed it. I felt bad though
>SWSH - Who the fuck played these games LMAO
>SV - Yes, love gato, though exp share made it so she was always overleveled, so she spent a lot of time in the box and I didn't really get to use her till the end of the game

I'm comfortable enough to drop my starter these days but I do feel bad about it.

I keep my starter until the HoF in nearly every game
I think the only one where I didn’t was in ultra firered xd where I picked rowlet, so I understand you. Shitmon line
It’s like gens regions other than Kanto and Sinnoh are incapable of not making the grass starter the hard mode

chikorita learns both reflect and light screen, so it can be a pretty fun team with lots of switching and gimmicky tactics.

No. My tradition is to keep the starter on my belt but never, ever send it into battle (if its the last mon on the team I let it die and white out). This helps increase difficulty a bit but more importantly it is a form of punishment for the audacity of being foist upon me against my will. I imagine the pathetic Pokémon creature huddled up in its ball. Lonely. Dark. Scared. I imagine it can hear all the laughter and excitement of me and all my other 'mons having wonderful adventures and making friends. The poor little starter has a different fate, to be raped by a ditto at its tender, vulnerable, naive starting level to provide an egg which I cruelly take from it, never allowing the poor widdle prinplup to lay eyes on its own child. Nine out of ten times I put that child on my team so that its pathetic parent can know that it isn't that I dislike its whole species but itself personally. I nickname all of my Pokémon except the starter. When I've finished my playthrough the starter gets left behind after all the others are transferred to await its lonely death at the inevitable new game reset months or long lonely years later. I have done this ever since Leaf Green.

He just saw that other anon list his behavior by gens and HAD to format it the same way just so he could post genwar shit kek
Honestly genwars don’t bring anything to the board because neither side ever concedes, they just move to another thread. Genwar shit should be forbidden
