Title: How Much Do You Care For Your Starter?
Post by: JrDude on June 26, 2008, 06:03:44 PM
Ok, at the begining of each game, some proffesor gives you a pok?mon of your choice (out of the 3), suposovely(SP?) your FIRST pok?mon ever. Now, how long do you keep that pok?mon? And by keep that pok?mon, I mean keep it in your party.

I, no matter who I picked, I keep them in my team forevur.

I keep them in my party mostly because since I've had them the longest, they end up being my highest leveled pokemon.

...This would have to vary depending on the Pokemon it is...
...If it's a cool one like Totodile or Torchic, then it's probably worth hanging on to...

...If it's something rather bland, then it'll just sit in my PC while I train bug Pokemon...:>...

I stopped my Torterra at Level 50, the same as my other starters, with the exception of my Level 100 Swampert, who is one of my main Pokemon.

It really depends.

When I have plans of making a specific team by type, I get rid of it, but usually my starter stays in my party until I have acquired the ultimate ice pokemon, and usually it is the first I level to 100, and enter contests. I don't just abandon it, but it doesn't get a free ride, either.

I don't really care about my starter. I ditched it a while back.

They always stay in my team. ALWAYS. And they're the highest leveled of the party, excluding Legendaries and events.

I always try to give them the best treatment of all my Pokemon.

It depends. 95% of the time my starter in in my party at all times. The reason is it's usually my highest level pokemon and I bring it out if need be because some comptuer is beating my lowwer levels that I'm raising. There has been a time where I didn't care for my starter, Turtwig, and used it to make my way through the game until I got another really high leveled pokemon, then I boxed the starter.

Charizard is awesome.

I kind of forget about it. Starters are never really my favorite...
Except Mudkip and Ivysaur. Not Venusaur. Venusaur is evil.

Blaziken's my most used pokemon, so there.

I haven't used Infernape since I beat the Elite 4 in pearl.
Title: Re: How Much Do You Care For Your Starter?
Post by: Nayrman on June 29, 2008, 11:52:41 AM
Just the three first starters (Charizard, Venasaur, and Blastoise). I don't care for any of the others...
I usually just use my eeveelution team.

Post by: bluaki on June 29, 2008, 12:50:45 PM
I usually keep it in my party at least until I finish the Elite Four.
I never trade my starters to someone else, but I sometimes trade them between games I own.

I've used Blaziken, my starter in Ruby, a ton in all 3rd and 4th gen games.

Remember that ribbon at the society that cost the max amount of money?  My Torterra now has one and is the first level 100 I raised in a long time.
Title: Re: How Much Do You Care For Your Starter?
Post by: Friendly Hostile on July 29, 2008, 09:05:48 PM
I usually keep it in my party all the time since it's usually one of the better of that type available through most of the game, and why waste time training another of the same type?

I don't use any other Pokemon other than my Infernape and on a rare occasion, Palkia or the lake pokemon. My infernape is level 70+ and my others are all 50-+

I would never get rid of it, and normally overuse it to the point where the rest of my team is neglected.
