Three words, Onix uses (softly weeps) bind. First gym in red, blue, yellow, is brutaful unless you have squirtle. But I stopped playing at those one's so maybe i'm totally wrong...
Edit- 151 for life.

I was one of those guys who had my Squirtle, and tanked through everyone just with him. My other party members were pretty much HM Slaves, until I actually did serious collecting post-game. Id rather have had my Blastoise, who was like 10 or 15 levels higher than my enemies, just from being in every battle, then have to train a whole team over and over...So he's always gonna have a special place in my heart for that reason

I've seen a mlot of love for the elemental advantage against gym leader 1 and two with bulbusaur and leader 1 with squirtle But IMO Having an elementally weaker main forced me to develop my team more If I ever really get a powerhouse monster I put everything on him rest of my team be damned charmander made me a better player. that and early game his slash kicks ass and he turns into a mother loving FIRE BREATHING DRAGON and not a total pansy dragon like that cutesy stuffed toy dragonite

Squirtle! Its cute, badass and awesome. Charmander is none of them yet everyone loves him. Nobody cares about poor old Bulbasaur.

In Gen 1 it's all about Bulbasaur, he gets you to Kadabra/Alakazam and once you have them game's over. Generally I favour Charizard because he is one of the only decent fire types you can easily get.

I chose Squirtle because he was the first pokemon I had as a kid. Partly because I had pokemon blue and his evolution was on the cover, but mostly because he was cute. Plus surf. But anyway, after seeing the results of the poll, I kinda wish I had chosen Bulbasaur. I didn't realise Bulbasaur wasn't liked.

Out of the original 3... I'd say Squirtle mostly because Blastoise has the best stats.

Out of all the starters... I'd say Cyndaquil. His 2nd form can learn thunderpunch making him super-effective against water-types, basically neutralizing a weakness, plus his Special Attack scales really well.

Objectively that's like asking which is better? Rock paper or scissors?

Subjectively. Charmander-Charmeleon-Charizard. Great design, great look and feel. Dragons.

Charizard, he's a bloody Dragon (even though he is never the dragon type, despite looking more like a dragon than most other dragon type pokemon).

Charmander all the way... because he leads to Charizard, the coolest pokemon of all time!

Bulbasaur. He's not a turtle or a salamander but a unigue fantasy creature. beside fucking toxic.

It's hard to pick one, but I feel a certain kinship with Bulbasaur. No real reason, I have nothing against Charmander or Squirtle.

Charmander.

Why?

Because he turns into a fucking DRAGON. A proper, firebreathing, flying motherfucking dragon.



Even the awesome Blastoise can't beat that shit.

Charmander - HE'S SO FREAKING CUTE! =D Look at him! D'awww!! But he doesnt take any crap - and evolves into friggin Charizard! Squirtle and Bulbasaur are certainly cool and all, but if you're making me choose, definitely Charmander X)

I prefer Charmander. I was always able to easily mow through the elite 4 and the rival without selecting anyone else. Fire Blast and Slash had more than enough variation to deal with anything the game threw at you
