go for a modest piplup.

It's the year of the fire monkey. Go with chimchar.

You won't find any more fire types during the game anyway.

Gen IV was the first gen I had trouble picking 1 out of the 3 starters.

If you had gotten Diamond or Pearl instead I would have said to go with Infernape because the lack of good fire types. However since you are getting Platinum I think Torterra is the best option even though I like all three the same.

I'll definitely consider it, any particular reason?

Cute, I've been told that there are hardly any fire type pokemon, from a glance my other option is ponyta?

ez mode: infernape
normal mode: torterra
hard mode: empoleon

i went with turtwig my first time because i loved the concept of torterra.

modest nature will make piplup super awesome. plus piplup is just badass.

go for a jolly chimchar if you want that. he is wicked quick with speed so jolly helps it.

Is that so? I thought empoleon would do well looking at the gyms

Yeah me too, I'm a big fan of venusaur so torterra speaks to me in that way, but I like all of these designs which is making it difficult to choose!
>>25658805
Wow, looks like chimchar is a speedy little guy! I like that!

There are more fite types in Platinum.

You catch a Houndour and Magmar as well as a Ponyta if you decide not to get Infernape, I could be missing a few though.
