Assuming any pokemon is available at its first stage, no legendaries.
Who would you pick and why?
Pick related for me, it'd be low maintenance, psychic powers would be handy for day to day utility, and it'd just be great to have my chill sunpal floating along beside me as I travel the land.
>>27440859
That's actually a really good pick.
Audino
>Native to Unova which is like America
>Easy to catch and you would have to be a retard not to find one
>Can help train my other mons since it can heal others and gives a lot of exp
>It can nurse other pokemon to health
>It helps with breeding pokemon since it can tell when eggs are about to hatch
>It naturally learns secret power for secret bases
>It mega evolves
>It's cute
>>27440946
Not a huge fan of Audino's design (I think it could have benefited from a smaller body, it just looks awkward) but it's still somewhat cute, and from a tactical perspective as you illustrated, it would be a great travel companion.
Best Starter.
>Fire type, makes it easier to start campfires
>Cute and Cuddly
>Small size means it requires small anounts of food
>Evolutions are Psychic-types, so useful for utility
No ulterior motives at all.
>>27440973

Furfags/underage GTFO.
Shit choice regardless.
>>27440859
Magikarp with only splash. Yall some filthy casuals if you choose anything different.

Good job faggot.
When're we getting the book spinoff?
>>27440859
>>27440888
>>27440973
I can dig it
I'd have to go with pic related. Snuggly portable qt campfire.
>>27441065
I love Rhyhorn, but I feel the evolutions get steadily worse
>>27441090
Nothing to do with not liking the word, it has to do with you misusing it horribly.
Do you refer to butterflies as scary?
>>27441098
This, but Rhydon is still good, and I honestly don't absolutely despise Rhyperior. It's definitely not good, but I like it in an ironic sorta way.
>>27441098
Rhydon was top tier, Rhyperior's appearance was a mistake.
>>27440859
Victini because it's my favorite mon
Gardevoir because we would be inseparable because of our bond. She'd protect me from danger and vice versa
>>27441106
>>27441112
Rhyhorn was great, Rhydon was good, Rhyperior was just a questionable design choice altogether. That in mind I'm not optimistic for how a Mega-Rhyperior would come out looking.
Rhyperior actually looks like a mega design itself, come to think of it.
>>27441115
No legendaries, snowflake
>>27441124
Ralts
>>27441115

>>27441106

I'd say that's pretty edgy.
Also:
>fennekin
>more underage than shark
Aipom
>>27441154
Why wouldn't a dragon have claws? What the fuck are you reaching for here? You could say literally any Pokemon with claws is "edgy"
Tyranintar is edgier than Garchomp and it's not edgy at all.
No Pokemon is really that edgy. Maybe Yveltal and not even because of its design, but the lore surrounding it.
And Fennekin is underage in that it panders to girls, but I almost have to agree with you in that it's not underage because its primary fanbase is disgusting, 20-somethings who are sexually attracted to animals.
>>27440859
>light up dark areas
>charge your things
>shock things
>eventual mega evolution
>cute
>>27441112
Your taste is a mistake
Machop.
Timburr, Tepig, Bulbasaur or Turtwig would be nice close seconds
Bronzor as it has psychic powers (which are very useful), learns flash to light up dark places, is able to shield me from attacks, highly portable, requires no food nor water, great for playing frisbee and doubles as a dinner plate.
>>27440888
A respectable if uninspired choice. Nothing wrong with old favourites though.
>>27440946
Good thinking anon, like your reasoning
>>27440973
I want to trust you anon, I really do
>>27440990
Are you okay with your cute little insect pal having its will consumed by the mushroom?
>>27441065
Good choice. Strikes me as something that would require care living with on a daily basis though, I'd imagine you'd spend some time making repairs/paying damages for things it broke.
>>27441097
Good for the reasons you mentioned, also you're probably not a furry
>>27441213
Also probably super cuddly even if it comes with chance of temporary paralysis
>>27441299
Would you train with it?
>>27441325
>A respectable if uninspired choice.
Charizard is easily my favorite Pokemon, but if you wanted me to reveal more of my taste, my second pick would probably be Scraggy. The perfect shouldermon that evolves into a cool and powerful bro.
>>27441213
Nice pick
>>27441333
>Charizard
>Scrafty
lizardliker
Of course, as always.
>>27441349
Fuck off with your fucking reddit memes. One day of one faggot spamming Heliolisk hentai and a cancerous new buzzword is born.
Thanks mods.
>>27441333
Nah, nothing wrong with Charmander. Like I said, its just a common pick, but thats okay.
Mudkip. Would be awesome to travel through seas with Swampert swimming next to your boat, or fish with Swampert, or do anything else with Swampert.
>>27440973
>>27440990
>>27441213
>>27441352
Great choices.
>>27441051
>the "edgy" meme
Enjoy your teletubbies.
Sentret because furret is one of my favourites and big movepool
Minccino for simiar reasons
Growlithe because i could eventually ride my arcanine
Larvitar for the power
>>27441289
You and I are now enemies. See you in the pit.
>>27441460
I'll be sure to bring my Rhyperior ;^)
The digimon version one, that could transform into the first 3 evolutions and then go back.
>he doesn't have an illusion bro to help him play pranks on retarded youngsters
>his mom and dad can't afford the latest in virtual Pokemon software
Must feel bad to be poor, faggots.
Always been my bro and we'd probably get along.
Being able to charge my electronic stuff would be pretty neat too.
>>27441511
>Wasting at least 5555 coins on computer program.
Whenever I went to the beach I'd always play and pick up the horseshoe crabs. So when I got red version and found out I could have a badass one I found one of my favorite mons.
Probably Zubat because it's my fave...
But, from a practicality standpoint - and as an art-maker - I'd maybe go with Elekid, Zorua or Ditto. Actually, definitely Ditto. All about that utility.
i like linoone because it's a simple yet neat design, they have pick-up which is a very useful ability in game, and they can learn a wide variety of useful moves. Also belly drum + extremespeed is a fun meme.
>>27441485
that sounds nice
>>27441908
tfw no horseshoe crabs on the beach to play with
>>27441485
Not confirmed to be first stage although I doubt it won't be
>>27441325
Furries commission 4 times the amount of art for the Charmander line than the Cyndaquil line.
>>27440859
Aron, because he's so cute and I could cuddle him all day
>>27442234
I must admit, Aron is one of the pokemon that looks great as a 3d model
>>27441908
>tfw years ago I found a 1ft diameter horsehoe crab shell (empty) on the beach
>ask my parents if I could bring it home to boil it clean and keep it.
>go back to see a kid smashing it to pieces with an iron shovel because he thought it was stupid
>>27440859
A Gastly, the Gengar line is my second most favorite line in the franchise and a Gastly is a lot more reasonbale a starter than a Zubat, my actual favorite.
Suprised no ones posted him yet, cute little yellow thing who then evolves into my favourite mon, where does it go bad
>>27440859
Solid choice
I'd have to go with Mareep
>early access to status for catching new poke
>great source of light
>comfy as fuck
>>27441213
great taste, my guy
>evolves into my favorite pokemon
>>27442341
too bad t needs trading to evolve, as loner it was impossible as a kid. GTS today helps a lot.
>>27442289
Jesus, that sucks man. That being said I may make the day long drive just to find some dead ones to decorate with thanks for the idea mate
In the 90's when KFC had the pokemon plushes, my cousin gave me his vulpix one. Been my favorite ever since.
Also, cute cuddly first stage shouldermon, amazing fluffy second stage. Can set shit on fire.
>>27441511
>not pirating Porygon
>>27440859
Cutest fluffball right here. I adore Flying types, and something about having a cute eaglet just sounds great to me.
Gen 1: Bulbasaur
Gen 2: Mareep
Gen 3: Wingull
Gen 4: Croagunk
Gen 5: Darumaka
Gen 6: Tyrunt
Darumaka would be my overall pick.
Yanma
>>27441325
>>27441213
>Also probably super cuddly even if it comes with chance of temporary paralysis
Relevant.
>>27440859
Poliwag, has been a bro since gen 1.
>>27440859
Love this little guy and its evolutions plus it would be easier to train than a lot of more rowdy Pokémon. Runner up would be a litwick, but it would probably try to steal my soul.
>>27440859
Probably wooper.
>cute
>playful
>evolves early
>great swimming buddy
>the whole line is perfect
>when it evolves it can finally hug you back
only thing holding it back is that 4x grass weakness but assuming that ill be catching atleast a team of 6 that wont be a problem.
>>27442977
Great taste!
>>27443438
>when it evolves it can finally hug you back
;__________;
we don't deserve wooper
Fav and awesome all-around
>>27443528
the world doesnt deserve wooper.
>>27442289
I recognize those eyes
Joltik. Galvantula is one of my favorite mons and it can charge my phone whenever its needed.
Houndour,be just like having a little pup and can provide fire for all its purposes.
Psyduck would be a close second,even with its headaches and clumsiness
Zangoose, he's my favorite.
Grumpy fluff ball who's a fucking asshole like me. Probably go from town to town beating kids and taking all their cash.
Nincada because it's cute, low maintenance, and would eventually evolve into not one, but two cool pokémon, one of which is my second favorite overall.
>>27440888
I'm with you!
>>27444625
dumb bully.
>>27440859
Probably Oddish. It has surprisingly good stats for a first stage Pokemon and Vileplume is one of my favourites.
>>27444625
Weavile's my favorite and Sneasel a cute
>>27440859
Shouldn't a starter be able to evolve? Picking a single stage fully evolved mon feels like cheating.
Probably pic related for me, I love the design and tanky playstyle. Shame that the final evo doesn't really do much for it and lack of decent physical STAB.Bulbasaur, Totodile, and growlithe as close contenders
>>27440859
>>27440859
We're of a pretty like mind, friendo
Bagon.
>Intimidating, so nobody would want to fuck with me
>Can mega evolve to become Fug levels of powerful
>Can be ridden for transportation and will look majestic as fuck while doing it
Salamence is literal bae.
>>27445295
salamence is 1,50m small....
Snorunt. A bunch of reasons I can think of like I live in literally snowy mountains, but honestly, it's mainly because I like Glalie and Froslass.
I need some figures of them honestly.
>>27440859
Assuming the game lets it evolve when it is time
>>27445085
>Shouldn't a starter be able to evolve?
Why? Its just the pokemon you start your journey with, no reason it should or shouldn't evolve.
>>27440859
I just really like Porygon and its evolutions.
>>27440859
Other than pic related, something like Shuppet would be cool
>Best smile.
>Best laugh.
>Squatter on par with the most cheeki breeki of slavs.
>>27440859
I would go with Yanma. Just how high maintenance can a dragonfly be? That, and how can you go wrong with a prehistoric dragonfly as well?
Spritzee or Feebas so I can evolve them into my ideal Pokemon
>>27445825
>Just how high maintenance can a dragonfly be?
>It prefers to battle by biting apart foes' heads instantly while flying by at high speed.
I'd say that has the potential to be high maintenance if it gets hungry.
Absol would be a pretty great starter Pokemon. It starts off strong so it can protect you better, it's floofy and good for cuddling, it can warn you of danger when traveling the world, and it has a very good Mega evolution for when you've strengthened your bond with it to the utmost.
>>27446216
muh nigga
>>27445752
Good taste.
I'd just evolve it once though; 2 is better than Z at what it does
Rotom has always been my pokebro, so it is obvious that i'd choose it.
Rufflet would be a good second choice.
>>27440859
Wingull
Cute, dependable and versatile. Bird shit would be an issue although you could probably train it.
Yamask is cute as well.
