Just pick whatever starter is your favorite that's what everyone else does. In my mystery dungeon they forgot to put a limit on how much stat boosting items you can give a pokemon so you can max out all the stats.

It doesn't really matter, but grass (specially something that can learn bullet seed) + water are the best imo.

Grass has really bad type matchups against most of the major fights in the story, but it can easily learn a multi-hit move (which are profoundly overpowered in this game) in the form of bullet seed, so it more or less balances out. Grass is a decent pick as a starter.
Skitty is op but female only
Cubone is like Grass in that it gets a lot of really strong multi-hit moves
Water types can walk on water, which are common in a lot of dungeons but not that big of a deal and something other types can deal with later
Fire types can walk on lava but that's not as common, so they're kind of whatever, but Ch*r*z*rd can learn heat wave which is one of the best room clearing moves in the game.

In general it's best to make sure your partner is something that can learn quick attack, since 99% of the time they'll just be standing behind you picking their ass, but quick attack lets them attack around you.

There isn't really a bad pick for a starter and partner in Rescue Team honestly (unlike Sky where Phanpy is fucking worthless)

Any are fine, starters overall are cool in this game and you'll blaze through just fine. Access to Absorb is extremely useful in the long run as it can pretty much overheal depending on how much damage you deal. Also multi-hit moves are nasty OP, so Bullet Seed (which is multi-hit + line-of-sight) is absurdly broken.
Also, might as well just use the Magnemite that joins you early on with a linked Metal Sound + Thundershock, that's all you'll ever need.
Enjoy your playthrough, OP!

imo Western Cave. Floors beyond 60 have some serious EXP sources in the fully-evolved starters + Skarmory, Absol (and iirc Ttar too). You can easily get 5-10 levels if you're above the 50s. Make sure you bring linked moves to maximize the gains.

short-term, as in a few levels at most? wiping team hydro with linked moves. check kecleon after each run for joy seeds, too. definitely the best option if you're just getting into postgame.
long-term, grinding up something like dratini that needs 25 levels to evolve? take that fucker to the second half of western cave. bring a tight belt, a bunch of elixirs, and just farm.

Razor Leaf is an extremely good ranged move available through level-up
Stun Spore is fantastic for monster houses and bosses
Bullet Seed might as well be a nuclear bomb

Bulbasaur trivializes the game by lv 15 when it gets sleep powder and Treeko gets bullet seed, the only bad grass starter is chikorita and even then it can learn bullet seed from a TM.

Skitty. Doubleslap is one of the best moves in the game. If you're lucky, keep a Doom Seed on you after you learn it, then use it to lower your Level and then you can have a second Doubleslap. Combine this with a Link Box or Gulpin's shop, and you have a near-unstoppable killing machine when you have double Doubleslap.

Yep. PMD1 is the only Pokémon game where you can have more than one of the same move in your moveset. This video explains move duplication in more detail.

If you need to grind EXP just use a generator and wonder mail some joy seeds if you're not playing DX. Grinding in PMD just isn't very fun since it feels like it takes ages for mons to level up compared to the main game. I did it for Trapinch in Explorers which was a massive pain. I wouldn't use it to overlevel (levels kind of peter off in usefulness compared to gummis past a certain point in RT anyway IIRC), but if you want a team member to catch up it's probably the best option. The way I see it, it just opens up your options more by saving time, and it also has the benefit of not making any of your other Pokemon level up, and not picking up tons of more resources.

The later games make it so run away also prevents you from being trapped, SMD and DX remove the stupid fleeing shit also.

In the original Rescue Team Run Away is just a complete nuisance though. It does nothing for the team leader but partners go full retard.
