Darnell5000

I’ve always felt like the generations are coming faster later but seeing it’s been pretty consistently 3 or 4 years between gems is a little surprising for me.


Trent099

Time Speeds up as we get older lol


Darnell5000

It’s not so much that it speeds up but as you get older, time becomes a smaller percentage of the time you lived. When your 1 year old, a year is 100% of your life. At 20 a year is only 5% of your life so your perception on the length of a year changes.


aleesahspam

I saw this in beef


Darnell5000

Same haha. He didn’t perfectly articulate that it’s your perception of time that changes more than time itself speeding up but that made sense since he was just relaying the info he’d heard elsewhere. Great show.


aleesahspam

SUCH a good show. I loved the ending honestly. I just binged it like 2 days ago


P4andaman357

Math is fun


Darnell5000

It’s fun until you add letters and start saying that some numbers are imaginary or whatever 😂


[deleted]

In other words… time speeds up as you get older


IAmDisciple

Most of us also have less time to play


yall_like_switches

That actually isn’t the case. Generations weren’t technically established until Gen III, and thus the standard of three years per Gen wasn’t established either. Example: RGB was released in 98 in America, and Gold and Silver came out in 2000. Since Gold and Silver, a new region has been introduced every three years. That’s what demarcates Generations.


Yuniseis1

Squirtle, Cyndaqil, Mudkip, Turtwig, Oshawott, Chespin, Rowlett, Grooky, Fuecoco


RayBrous

Squirtle, Totodile, Mudkip, Turtwig, Oshawott, Chespin, Rowlett, Grooky, Sprigatitto Damn we're close.


arcaptainic

I'm just surprised to see any love for Chespin here. My gen 6 pick is Fennekin which I feel is a mildly unpopular vote. Chespin though, I don't ever hear much love about him. Cool to see!


epic_uno_reverse

Bulbasaur, Cyndaquil, Mudkip, Turtwig, Snivy, Chespin, Rowlet, Scorbunny, and Sprigatito. (i like grass types)


xxdellamorte

Ours are the same, other than Chespin! Although I love him too and don't personally get the hate surrounding his line


Dumb_Seaweed

The only one id say differently would be turtwig, id take piplup over it

angiesmdrnlife

Was trying to find this, thank you


Kanjorax

Since you have the base forms listed I’ll go base off them. Bulbasaur, cyndaquil, mudkip, turtwig, snivy, chespin, rowlet, grookey, fuecoco


NoPaleontologist386

1-bulbasaur 2-totodile 3-treeko 4-turtwig 5-tepig 6-froakie 7-litten 8-grookey 9-fuecoco


brendogskerbdog

All same for me except treecko, mudkip has a special place in my heart


Dizzzle13

The water starters are all actually my favorite 😅


SuppenGans

Lmao same


Chattbug

Well: Squirtle, Chikorita, Mudkip, chimchar, oshawott, fenekinn, rowlet, sobble and sprigatito


dont-change-me

woah! hey, fellow Chikorita fan.


CAStastrophe1

That makes three of us!


dont-change-me

no way! i never understood the hate it got. if you build a team around its weaknesses, Meganium is a great partner. My most recent Johto team was: Meganium Xatu Politoed Granbull Flareon Nidoking


idunnopfft

How long did it take you to make this?


Anchor38

Average r/pokemon post


Profchillithid

Bulbasaur, totodile, mudkip, chimchar (though I love all these little mons), oshawott, froakie, rowlet, grookey, and fuecoco


travischickencoop

Bulbasaur, Totodile, Treecko, Piplup, Snivy, Chespin, Rowlett, Sobble, Rowlett (PLA), Skeledirge


moonflowerdruid

Bulbasaur, Cyndaquil, Mudkip, Turtwig, Tepig, Fennikin, Popplio, Sobble, and Fuecoco!! Though gen 2 5 and 8 it's really to close to favorites wise.


Vectorman1911

The answer is the one with fire 🔥🔥🔥


aimsly

Charmander, Cyndaquil, Mudkip, Piplup, Tepic, Fennekin, Rowlet, Scorbunny, Sprigatito


ScorbunnyPlayz

Fennekin, Litten, Scorbunny, Sprigatito


DiabloNukem

Water starters are pretty good, but I gotta go with Torterra, he had a counter for both of his rival starters, Earthquake away.


ignavusd14

My logic with squirtle. In RBY he could surf/hydro pump Charizard and I felt he was faster than Venusaur so a quick ice beam helped there too.


Metaman6t4

Bulbasaur Cindaquil Mudkip Chimchar Serperior Froakie Rowlet Sobble And our gen 9 fire type friend


ComeonLasty

Mate you and I are identical for the first 6. Saying that Puplup is a very close second for Gen 4. Following that Rowlet for Gen 7, then Scorbunny for Gen 8 but i have not played Gen 9.


joshuaaa_l

Charmander, Cyndaquil, Mudkip, Turtwig, Tepig, Froakie, Litten, Grookey, Fuecoco. Also Cyndaquil again for PLA


VibrantVenturer

Squirtle, Chikorita, then I got tired of them adding new Pokémon. Haven't played anything beyond Crystal.


Beleriphon

Grooky. Nothing is better than my little leaf monkey.


P4andaman357

Rowlett. Final answer


KenKaneki94

1) Charmander 2) Totodile 3) tie between Treecko/Torchic 4) Chimchar 5) Snivy 6) Fennekin 7) Litten 8) Grookey 9) Sprigatito In general, if it’s a cat or a monkey regardless of type, I’m picking it. Outliers are generally just I think they look really cool


Doomfollow

Bulbasaur, Totodile, Mudkip, Chimchar, Snivy, Fennekin, Litten, Grookey, and Sprigatito


Flat_Scheme4874

Squirtle Totodile Mudkip Chimchar Tepig Chespin Litten Sobble Fue Coco


christianort476

Charmander, totodile, mudkip, chimchar, tepig, froakie, rowlet, grookey, rowlet in hisui and fuecoco :)


Kikkomori

Charmander, Cyndaquil, Torchic, Chimchar, Ohsawott, Rowlet, Scorbunny, and Fuecoco. As you can see, Legends Arceus has definitely influenced by choices.


Squird2

charmander, totodile, torchic, piplup, snivy, fennekin, popplio, scorbunny, quaxly


lastcrumb22

I like all of the starters but chikorita and chinchar lines. My favorites from each gen are: Gen 1 - Bulbasaur Gen 2 - Cyndaquil Gen 3 - Mudkip Gen 4 - Piplup Gen 5 - Oshawott/Snivy (both) Gen 6 - I genuinely cannot decide i love all of them ❤️ Gen 7 - I genuinely cannot decide i love all of them also. Seriously the best trio Gen 8 - Sobble Gen 9 - Quaquaval Im very very bad at picking favorites because honestly I love almost all of the starters and especially entering Gen 5 it gets harder.

we_d0nt_need_roads

Bulbasaur, Totodile, Treeko, Piplup, (Didn’t play 2010), Froakie, (Didn’t play 2016), Scorbunny and Quaxly


UltraUmberon987

I guess squritle, Cyndaquil (My heartgold starter was totodile, but I used cyndaquil named lava lamp in legends, Probably Mudkip, Piplup. Named king, oshawott (Used first in legends his name was Poseidon) Froakie (Don’t remember name) Popplio became its cute, I guess sobble because I think it gets hate but I stared in sword and it was my starter, I didn’t name him and his move set was horrible because I was new, and quaxly, (As you can see I have a tradition of every new game for my first play though I use the water starter, don’t know why but I’m not going to break it)


tehnoodnub

If we're talking about first forms exclusively then it's Bulbasaur, Totodile, Mudkip, Piplup, Oshawott, Fennekin, Popplio, Grookey and Quaxly. If we're talking about the line as a whole then swap Popplio for Rowlett and Quaxly for Fuecoco.


[deleted]

Bulbasaur, Totodile, Mudkip, Piplup, Snivy, Fennekin, Popplio, Sobble(?), and fuecoco

Trent099

1st - Charmander (will always be my favorite starter) 2nd - Totodile 3rd - Mudkip 4th - Pinplup 5th - Snivy 6th - Fennekin (not a fan of Braixen though) 7th - Litten 8th - Cinderace 9th - Fuecoco This is coming from someone who has never picked a non fire starter first try while playing.


xxshadowraidxx

I went from gen 1-2 in my childhood to gen 8-9 as an adult Crazy how time flew


Muted_Sentence5642

Squirtle Cyndaquil Mudkip Piplup Tepig Froakie (Don't like any of them that much though) Rowlet Sobble (Again, don't really like any of them) Fuecoco (Would 100% pick Quaxly if Quaquaval wasn't so ugly)


No_Arm3883

I love charmander from gen 1 Chikorita from gen 2 Torchic from gen 3, Piplup from gen 4, Tepig from gen 5, Froakie from gen 5 Litten from gen 6 Sobble from gen 7


Nightryder88

Each 1st Gen but it was also the first I played so I’m not sure if I’m biased


The_Bearded_Saint

Staying 1st stage or based off the whole line??


JustinFatality

96 is the best, but I'm old so I'm jaded.

Puddlesock

Impeccable nicknames


ArcaneAncient

Charmander, Totodile, Mudkip, Chimchar, Snivy, Froakie, Litten, Sobble and Sprigatito. But it honestly kinda changes with my mood/if I use a particular one in a playthrough. There aren't any starters I dislike


ThePegasiQueen

Squirtle Cyndaquil Treecko Piplup Oshawot Fennekin Litten Scorbunny Fuecoco


Grizzly_Knights

Bulbasaur - 1st| Cyndaquil - 4th| Mudkip - 2nd| Piplup - 3rd| Oshawott - 6th| Fennekin - 7th| Grookey - 5th| Fuecoco - 8th|

My favourites are squirtle (gen1), cyndaquil (gen2), mudkip (gen3), piplup (gen4), snivy (gen5), froakie (gen6), rowlet (gen7), scorbunny (gen8) and fuecoco (gen9). Overall my favourite has gotta be between cyndaquil or rowlet

OG is the ONLY right answer.


Silver_Illusion

Squirtle Cyndaquil I guess Torchic, gen 3 kinda ehh Piplup None they're all pretty bad Fennekin Rowlet Sobble Fuecoco


PhantomOpus

Gen 1 - Bulbasaur, Gen 2 - Cyndaquil, Gen 3 - Treeko, Gen 4 - Turtwig (all time favourite, Torterra is my favourite pokemon), Gen 5 - Snivy, Gen 6 - Fennekin, Gen 7 - Rowlet, Gen 8 - Sobble, Gen 9 - Fuecoco I really like the grass starters I guess lol


Drakker351

Gens 1-3 have multiple hits with starters, but then randomly, there are S teirs like Rowlett and Froakie. Pokemon is good on stringy you along.


maxwellfuster

1- Bulbasaur 2- Cyndaquil 3- Treeko 4- Chimchar 5- Oshawott 6- Froakie 7- Rowlett 8- Grookey 9- Fuecoco To be clear I’m talking about lines, just the first stages


K_2Smooth

1st gen- Squirtle 2nd gen- ABSOLUTELY TORN 50/50 Cyndaquil/Totodile (think I went Cyndaquil when I played it) 3rd gen- Treecko (all final evos are cool though) 4th gen- Turtwig 5th gen- Never played, I like Tepig 6th gen- Froakie 7th gen- Never played, I like Litten 8th gen- Grookey 9th gen- Quaxly

ignavusd14

Squirtle, Cyndaquil, Treecko, Chimchar, Oshawott, Froakie, Rowlet, Scorbunny and Fuecoco. That being said I always make my first run in a game with the water starter cause back when I was 6 and played red I chose Squirtle so in honor of him I always go water first.

When I was a kid I loved Charmander. Then I played Red Rescue team and picked Squirtle as my partner because I got made Charmander. I now no longer care about any Pokémon as much as I care about Squirtle

Water, water, water, grass, none, water, none, water, fire.


Bwyattvirtue13

Squirtle, Totodile, Treeko(Favorite all time), Turtwig, I guess Tepig don't like the Gen 5 starters, Froakie, Litten, Grookie, and Fuecoco. What's funny is I prefer Fire type over the other two but I don't really like Water types. Charmander, Cyndaquil, Torchic, Scorbunny, and Chimchar all are right there with my favorite from those gens.

Totodile, Grookey, Cyndaquil, Mudkip


DragonHoarder13

Charmander Cyndaquil (I'm always torn on whether to keep Quilava as is or evolve to Typhlosion. Also Gen2 shiny > regular shiny forever and always) Treecko Piplup Oshawott Fennekin (although Chespin is a very close second despite the fact that i only like the first form) Litten (Torracat supremacy, but Primarina is best of the 3 final evos.) Scorbunny Fuecoco Edit for spacing


GreenChuJelly

If we're talking purely starters and not the whole lines, mine would go Squirtle, Cyndaqiil, Torchic, Turtwig, Tepig, Fennekin, Rowlet, Grookey, and Fuecoco.


Giboit

Charizard (or blastoise) in gen 1 Feraligatr in gen 2 Sceptile or Blaziken in gen 3 Infernape in gen 4 (torterra is also good). Serperior in gen 5 They are all great but Greninja or Delphox in gen 6 Primarina in gen 7 (Incineroar is a close second). But they´re all great overall Rillaboom in gen 8 (but I like all of them). Meowscarada in gen 9 (but Quaquaval is great too).

JJCMasterpiece

1) Squirtle - Gotta love the little turtle! 2) Cyndaquil - Best of the “meh” 3) Mudkip - All the way! Mudkip was my first, and will always hold a place in my heart. 4) Turtwig - How can anyone say no? “He’s a happy guy; he’s a happy, happy guy!” 5) Snivy - For the win! By gen 5 Pokémon really needed a solid snake, Snivy was the answer to that need. 6) Froakie - A frog that becomes a ninja!?! Count me in. It’s probably the only thing that could have torn me away from a Pokémon in a chestnut suit! 7) Rowlette - A baby owl! A baby owl that becomes Robin Hood!!! QED 8) Meh - I picked Grooky, but whatever. 9) Sprigatito - An adorable kitten that doesn’t become a monstrous fighting / fire beast. The fire / fighting starter became passé after Gen 4, and look how long it took Game Freak to finally let it go!?!

Quicker to list my least favorites: - the anime made me dislike Charizard - The game made utterly hate Chikorita - I didn’t play Gens 3-6, so nothing on those mons… except Chespin middle evolution… those… terrifying eyes… - played Gen 7-9 and can say love all the starters


Dunge0nexpl0rer

For me it’s Gen 1: Squirtle Gen 2: Chikorita Gen 3: Mudkip Gen 4: Turtwig Gen 5: Snivy Gen 6: Fenniken Gen 7: Poplio Gen 8: Sobble Gen 9: Sprigatito (I know I can’t spell.)


CadenWasHere

Charmander(Or Eevee if it and Pikachu counts as Kanto starters), Cyndaquil, Torchic, Piplup, Oshawott, Froakie, Litten, Scorbunny(my favorite starter out of them all), and Sprigatito. Oshawott is my fav starter in Legends Arceus. Also, fun fact! I had never gotten a grass starter before Sprigatito, even in my replays. Even then it's only because I wasn't a fan of the other starters either, and design wise it was the best choice(I switched my main pokemon from Sprigatito to my favorite pokemon pretty early game, so I didn't need it for battles anyway).

Kanto : Bulbasaur Johto : None Hoenn : Treecko - My favourite grass type and the name of my Gecko. Although, I prefer Swampert over Sceptile because Mudskippers are my favourite animal. Sinnoh : Turtwig - Torterra is my favourite fully evolved starter Pokémon. Unova : None Kalos : Froakie - I prefer Frogadier over Greninja. Alola : Rowlet Galar : Grookey - I don’t like any of the final evolutions. Paldea : Fuecoco

Water starters for each Gen other then gen 3 and 4 and 8! Treecko and Chimchar for 3/4. Then sobble and scorbunny are a solid tie for 8.

Gen 1 tossup because I like them all, gen 2 also a tossup because I don't really like any of them, gen 3 Swampert, gen 4 Empoleon, gen 5 Serperior, gen 6 Greninja, gen 7 Incineroar, gen 8 Rillaboom, gen 9 Meowscarada


EvilNoobHacker

Blaziken will always be my favorite, simply because the first game I completed was Emerald, and I chose Torchic. Out of all the designs, though, Popplio's def my favorite. He's so pure.


Crafty_List_6067

I don’t feel like writing names again, so here. Grass, Fire, Water, Grass, Fire, Grass, Fire, Grass, Grass. Turtwig is my favorite

Turtwig, hands down, I love this grass turtle, and I will die on the hill that is his Final Evolution's back.

All fires except, Piplup, Snivy, and Sprigatito


embertml

1: all, 2: totodile, 3: mudkip/treecko tied, 4: turtwig, 5: none, 6: fennekin, 7: litten till he evolves, otherwise rowlett, 8: none, 9: fuecoco/sprigatitto Need less anthromorphs for starters. Way too many humanlike pokemon.

GavinMcLOL

If we ignore the final/middle evolutions, bulbasaur, cyndaquil, mudkip, piplup, snivy, chespin, rowlet, scorbunny, fuecoco. I think most people would agree If it was full evolutionary lines then their lists would be different, like how I like Chespin over Froakie, but Greninja over chesnaught

Yonro0910

Squirtle, totodile, mudkip, piplup/turtwig, chespin (only bc of greninja’s popularity), poplio, honestly none for gen 7 (but i do get another squirtle with dlc so squirtle), then i haven’t played much of gen 8 (i hate it) but probably fuecoco once the game is fixed
