I can't decide /v/.
>>345285482
try that one
>play the worst gen in the franchise
icecreamfags are cancer
Snivy, it's the smug loli of Pokemon
>>345285482
honestly, they're all trash starters.
might as well go with tepig, emboar is sort of cool I guess
I think Serperior looks nice. Samurott also seems fine but embroar seems pretty gay
>>345285619
No senpai.
>>345285623
Played every pokemon to death save for XY/BW. Wanted to try out B2.
Isn't fire always the rarest to find?
they're all lame, pick one at random and toss it into storage once you catch a cool early game pokemon
>>345285676
>starting with the sequel
Black and White are a great gen and fixed everything wrong with Diamond and Pearl.
>>345285976
>everything wrong with Diamond and Pearl
don't talk shit about D&P. Literally my favorite gen besides emerald.
>>>/vp/Oshawoot is the best, fuck haters
>>345285482
Tepig, generic fire type in a region where there are so many better fire types.
Oshawott, just... poor, poor Oshawott. Samurott is so generic, weak and stupid.
Pick Snivy.

>Shit Pokedex in general

>>345285976
Black and White went ezmode even for pokemon though.
You can run from every wild encounter and avoid all the trainers possible and still be every gym and the elite four with nothing but krookodile
>>345287059
Pokemon was never difficult if you knew what you are doing.
Its a kids game.
Source: me beating Red as a 7 year old with only Charizard
Try asking >>>/vp/
>>345287247
Red had retarded AI.
Its was never difficult, but it also was never a cakewalk.
>>345285482
Just ditch the starter. Gen v starters are awful.
>>345287429
I'm not saying I wouldn't like a hard mode in newer pokemon games, but people who act like they are hardcore and easier difficulty has ruing the series are being disingenuous.
>>345285619
>>345285482
Smugchief
>>345285482
Oshawott if playing BB2/VW2
Ditch starter if not
>>345285482
Tepig's the most Faithful.
>>345285619
Underrated post.
>>345285482
Pick Snivy, since the other two will get outdone by other mons later on
>>345287564
I can't believe how they added a hard mode in this game, slapped it behind a lock that requires beating Black 2, and then didn't bring it back for XY
I wasn't the only one who exclusively used my starter righter.
Sapphire was just sceptile and fire red was just charizard.
My yellow run had me break that rule, pickchu was pretty trash and lt. surge was impossible. From that run I learned hoe overpowered dugtrio was in gen 1, slash and earthquake would slaughter everything. Pikachu, and later articuno, were barely used since dugtrio would just kill everything.
>>345285482
Pick Revolver Oshawott
>>345288205
You're not, but it just seems like such a pointless, boring way to play.
>>345287247
>with only Charizard
it's easier to just plow through the game with one pokemon than an entire team though before X&Y's ridiculous exp share
Serperior is the only one that isn't ugly as sin, but it's also the worst one to use.
There are perfectly servicable replacements in-game. Lilligant, Seismitoad and Darmanitan all exist for a reason.
>>345288205
>That little shit who just plowed through the main game with his starter
>Whenever he wanted to battle with you his team was just the starter + legendaries
>>345285482
I see titties!
Help /v/ I can't decide either.
No one, just pick whatever shit you'll be happier when throwing away
Worst starters without doubt
>>345285482
just get all of them
>>345288205
As a kid I only used my starter. But I learned that's not the best way to go.
Gary/Blue knocked out my Blastoise with his Venasaur. I was lucky to have had a pidgeotto with quick attack to snipe its last bit of health.
Ever since then I've made sure to keep at least 3 pokes around the same level.
>not devouring bw just for dem short shorts
>>345289306
Is there moemon for all the games
>>345286265
>Oshawott, just... poor, poor Oshawott. Samurott is so generic, weak and stupid.
I will never get why THE FUCKING SAMURAI POKEMON can't stand upright
fucking why
>>345291059
I think so
>>345290975
nice thumbnail
>>345285619
This.
>>345292227
Even BW/BW2 D/P/Pt?
>>345286591
>slow as fuck
RPGs aren't for you.
>Literally only two fire types
>He doesn't have someone to trade with so he starts with all three starters
>Shit Pokedex in general
Gen 5's is worse.
>Stealth Rock
Also in gens 5 and 6.
>Huge number of HMs required
Only complaint you have and it's not even that big of a deal.
>Shit new Pokemon
Gen 5 has shittier new Pokemon.
>with bad stats
Competitive fags can fuck off.
>Rehashes competitions from Diamond and Pearl
So D&P rehash competitions from themselves? You're not making any sense.
>>345289306
man Totodile sure has changed over the years
>>345293145
>>slow as fuck
>RPGs aren't for you.
this makes no fucking sense, they're noticeably slower than existing pokemon games
>>345293145
>>Shit Pokedex in general
>Gen 5's is worse.
Doesn't make it invalid.
>>Stealth Rock
>Also in gens 5 and 6.
Doesn't make it invalid.
>>Shit new Pokemon
>Gen 5 has shittier new Pokemon.
Doesn't make it invalid.
>>345286591
Pretty much every individual game exceot b/w has suffered from a lack of fire types if you didn't choose the starter.
>>345285482
3 of them kinda suck desu
>>345285848
Depends on the gen. Generally yes, but Water is more useful and you usually don't get any good ones until you can get the Super Rod or Surf late in the game.
>>345293145
>being this much of a fucking retard
>>345285482
Fire and Water starters evolve into /fit/ as fuck cool dudes.
Grass starter becomes a faggot.
What do you think OP?
>playing on an emulator
>>345285619
is right
>>345285482
worst gen
>>345294675
While Fire types are generally pretty rare, Gen 4 is notable for not introducing a single new Fire type outside of the starter and a legendary
>people actually use their starter
>>345286591
>slow as fuck
>in a turn based RPG
You're going to have to explain that one to me if you want me to not think you have a mental problem
>>345298096
Gen 5 is the best gen, second best if you nostalgia.
Gen 6 is the worst gen, objectively.
>>345285667
>barafag trying to be nonchalant
Tepig has THAT crowd, and Snivy has the neckbearded "Smugleaf" crowd. Oshawott is the only option.
>>345300301
Diamond and Pearl battles are objectively slower than the other games, it's an very well known problem
Oshawott.
Why use Emboar when you can use Darmanitan?
Why use Serperior when you can use Lilligant?
>>345300301
I think he means the battle animations and stuff were just longer than they needed to be. I always thought HP/XP bars took fucking ages to move in D/P.
>>345300524
This, Gen 4 and Gen 2 both were unacceptably slow.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-IGs60Kgkw
>>345300549
why use a Grass type?
>>345300621
If you play Gen 2 again you will see the same problem.
Surf took about the same time as it takes Pluto to orbit the Sun.
And there was always a delay from the hit registering to when HP starts to fall.
If people didn't play with fast forward they wouldn't play it at all.
>>345300741
Useful resistances.
>>345300648
It's not even Gen 4 as a whole, since Platinum and HG/SS are noticeably faster than DP
Replay X/Y before you read this spoiler.They're shit and you didn't notice because it was so long ago
>>345301249
>X/Y
>so long ago
how old are you
>>345300648
That's just DP. They fixed it majorly in Platinum.
