Starting pokemon in D/P - Page 3

SephirothKirby · 06-28-2007, 02:45 PM

They really did screw up the starters.

Wyborn should've had me with his Empoleon, seeing as all I had left was Infernape.

^^O rly?

Lady Bane · 07-02-2007, 08:38 PM

Eh... I started off with Piplup, only because it was the cutest pokemon!
I now have Empoleon at lvl 50+! I dont regret choosing piplup, only that I didnt have a chance to meet the other two.

Problem is Infernape is a sweeper like nobody's business, and the rest of my team is slower than him except for Staraptor and Gengar. Staraptor? Woulda worked wonders, but he's my starter so naturally he's dead.

I mean, Grass/Ground?

Metal Man · 07-03-2007, 01:36 AM

^Yeah Typhlame, you rock so much I'm gonna follow up all of your posts with a comment of my own.

Just kidding. Although you should follow Saeed around.

I picked ol' Chimchar, heh. Works good as a sweeper opposite my Porygon-Z. When I finally pick the game up again I may fight some of you.

JaredThaJAsWelch · 08-24-2007, 03:56 PM

I Choose Piplup and nicknamed it Cobblepot (If you don't know the meaning of that your not Nerdy enough) it's already an Empoleon.

I'm a spot thou I wound up teaching it 3 HMs and now I find I can't delete an HM when teaching a TM and I want to teach it Blizzard, and Waterfall once I get that HM.

Sarai and Samiel · 08-26-2007, 12:58 AM

That's what the Move Deleter is for, you know. Provided you can find the guy (it *is* still a guy in D/P, right?) and bother going to whatever city he's in.

MASALOBOTOMY · 08-26-2007, 02:21 AM

Started off with all Three (Due to my brother having diamond), now my main Pokemon is my Female Combee.

Sarai and Samiel · 08-26-2007, 02:34 AM

Once I get it, I think I'll probably go with Chimchar. While Piplup through Empoleon is nice, it's entirely too popular. Turtwig through Torterra is a concept I've wanted for a while, but hell. Grass/Ground? Dammit, it was supposed to be Grass/Rock.

Besides, if I get a female Infernape, I can name it Sonson.

JaredThaJAsWelch · 08-26-2007, 02:34 AM

YeahI just did that.

I'm right before the Elite Four but I'm not nearly leveled up enough to beat them.

So I'm just gonna spend a week or to messing around at the resturant and crap like that.

The Turntwig family annoys me, The Grass Starts should be trumped eaisly by Fire but their Not, my Rapidash couldn't even kill one with a Fire Blast in 1 move.

Sarai and Samiel · 08-26-2007, 03:07 AM

I'm sorry, your comprehensibility level is set too low. I can't parse that without spending more time than it's worth. Please rephrase if you wish to be understood.

REDJ · 10-16-2007, 09:14 PM

I started with Torterra. I think in the next set they should make a Fire/Psychic, Grass/Dark, Water/Fighting

X-3 · 10-17-2007, 11:46 AM

^^^That's because Torterra has sexy defense. And Rapidash isn't really that great.

^Agreed for the most part. I was thinking:

Fire/Psychic Weasel
Grass/Ghost Racoon
Water/Fighting Um...not sure on this one.

REDJ · 10-17-2007, 12:44 PM

I was thinking more like this-
Fire/Psychic- Some sort of bug thing
Grass/Dark- A snake like thing (more like an anaconda)
Water/Fighting- some sort of salamander type thing
I might sketch these ideas, ill post em on my deviantart later sometime. heres the link to my deviantart- Axzarious on deviantART

Sparrowphone325 · 01-26-2008, 01:59 PM

I always choose the fire starters so yeah I started with chimchar

Rolls-Royce Man · 01-28-2008, 12:40 PM

I wanted to be different.

I chose a Tonterra.

NEXT: Water-Type <_<

Sarai and Samiel · 02-06-2008, 01:03 PM

Dang. Infernape is great, but it's tough building a team in Diamond off of it that doesn't have glaring weakness to something or other. Sigh.

I got a Lv.100 Turtwig.
