What do you think of Ash's eyes?
Honestly, I didn't even noticce until I had it pointed out to me, sorry.

Oshawott is indeed hilarious and the best.
Part of the reason I ended up picking it was the anime. It was my (and a lot of people's) least favourite starter when they were first revealed, so I wonder if making him Ash's first Unova Pokemon - as well as making him so awesome - was a deliberate marketing decision.
(Most of the reason was because I found out that Serperior was worthless garbage in battle, despite having an excellent design. That, coupled with the awfulness of Meganium putting me off grass starters and the fact that Samurott was also a total badass made it an easy decision.)
I picked Oshawott because I hate Tepig's final form and knew I'd be using Lilligant, which left no room for Serperior.

Nice ranking, apart from Ash/Paul not being #1. Decent reasoning, too, except for the fact that I think even though you're right that there was 5 years of buildup for Ash/Gary, the majority of that was...crap.
Like, Paul made far more regular appearances and was kind of a shadow hanging over Ash and Ash's team. The Chimchar subplot helped that, too. Gary went missing for like a year at a time, it felt like. Certaiinly several months. So while Ash/Gary had 5 years of buildup compared to Ash/Paul's 4, the Ash/Paul buildup was far more substantial.
Oh and yeah Ash/Brandon...not memorable? Ash commanding Seismic Toss on a ghost type and getting punished for it? Pikachu vs. Regice?
Oh man, I forgot about the seismic toss, good point.
