On Blue Rescue Team, back when I was about 8 years old the year the game was released, my very first starter was a Bulbasaur. I nearly 100%'d the game with it!

But for whatever reason, a few years later, I thought it was a good idea to delete that file and start again...and got a Mudkip for my quiz. I still liked playing as Mudkip either way, though! I just miss my old file...

On Explorers of Darkness, I got a Cyndaquil! My personal favorite Johto starter. ♥

For Explorers of Sky, I got Riolu! This choice made me happy because I liked the dynamic Riolu and Pikachu had together in Sky's TV ads that played back when the game was out.

And for Super... I got Riolu again! I was pleasantly surprised.~ I got to play as my dream team from Sky again!

I never really have a set Pokémon intended for my starter in each game. I'm mainly choosy about who I want my partner to be...and it always ends up being Pikachu. Weird.

The only time I didn't pick Pikachu as a partner was in Darkness, where I picked Piplup.
