| Topic | Bulbasaur is best starter |
| Taily_Po 07/17/19 2:27:06 PM #13: | Bulbasaur's advantages include: -Poison subtyping, which means he's immune to being poisoned, a common and annoying status condition -Type advantages against the first three/four gyms (SE vs Rock/Ground, SE vs + resists water, and resists electricity... and he resists grass for Erika's gym, although he needs to use non-grass moves). In general, he has a type advantage of some kind vs 5 of the 8 gyms. -Evolves to final form at an earlier level -(Gen 1) Has access to Razor Leaf which, under Gen 1 mechanics, had a 100% critical hit rate (which also bypasses stat changes) -(Gen 1) Has access to Sleep Power which, under Gen 1 mechanics, caused Pokemon to lose the turn they wake up. Granted, between the starters from all games, I think Mudkip has more advantages. hypnox posted... In a utility aspect, out of gen one I think squirtle would be the best. Water on demand, swim, and its various attacks would be more beneficial in a real would sense then the other two. The games have tons of good water types which render that benefit minimal. For starters, Gyarados is a better pick.
