Gold and Silver are re releasing in a few weeks.
If you're getting it, who's your starter?
I'm going for Chikorita. I imported the game from America (Britfag) months before it came out here and picked it, assuming that grass would be the dominant starter again.
>tfw it's hard mode for the first few gyms and generally pretty useless

I got it x number years ago. Fuck off Nintendo I'm not buying that shit again.
>the fire one

but you can send them on the pokemon bank (only 5$/year) :(
Totodile. I'm about to grab Blue on VC and hope I don't get too burned out on Pokemon before GS release, but if I do I guess I'll just wait for Crystal.
I like Squirtle most of the gen 1 starters, but my autism prevents me from selecting two water starters in a row and I like Totodile more than Squirtle. Also frees up an opportunity to get Poliwrath on the team in Blue.

>buying fucking codes to a 16 year old game
why? you can emoulate it on pc or your iphon.

I want to keep the 0s and 1s that make up my pokemon
I thought this was one of those "it's 1999" threads, but I forgot they were coming out for VC.
Everytime I've played Gen 2, I've traded to get all 3 starters. I restarted my game like 9 times when HGSS came out so me and my friends could have a complete set.
Didn't care enough to replay Red and Blue when those were released on VC, but Gold and Silver have enough of a place in my heart that I'm considering it.
As a kid I chose Cyndaquil just because I was a firefag, this time I think I'll go with Totodile. I've always thought Chikorita and its evos were pretty shit, at least design-wise
cause I emulated them over 10 years ago and played HGSS on release I don't think I have to replay the games what with my big ass backlog and all

There have been major changes to how the games work from gen 3 onwards. How do Gen1 pokemon work if transferred to the pokemon bank, any different than, say, the same pokemon from fire red? What's stopping me from just playing heartgold and transfering my pokemon from there?
Chickorita is one of the worst starters of all time. Please don't do that to yourself.

Why would I buy one of them when I still have my copy of Crystal which is superior to both?
This was the worst generation of starters.

They're pretty bad, but Totodile's okay.
