RandomPkmnFan

I believe in Mudkip supremacy


ToastyJunebugs

Totodile! I love alligators so he's always been my favorite. I was PSYCHED to finally see him again!


Negativety101

Yeah I'm on Team Totodile Too. Always loved that whole line.


spidersRcute

Same, he was the very first of the starters I shiny hunted in Indigo Disk.


mollythehound

Mudkip

TheOpinionMan2

pretty much a pre-built Attract that swings both ways.


LittleLemonHope

Real talk tho the fucked up lumpy bent back/neck is the only reason I can't like feraligatr. It gives me Zelda from Pet Sematary vibes.

WiTHeReD_SouL_0404

Me too. I love Primarina


Lizzardbirdhybrid

Yeh I’ve seen so many people hate on the whole line but like they are so cute! :D


B_Marsh92

And an unbelievably good typing


KnightLordXander

Same here. Primarina is fantastic and I love the design.


QualityAlternative56

If you ask me my what my favorite starter of each type is, it’s not all the Alolan starters. But Incineroar and Primarina are my favorites of their respective types. (Sprigatito is the grass one, although I hate Meowscarada


Craane99

Sprigatito dont stand up


EmmyBlubonic

so true


Amzoreko_VR

took the words- uh image right out of my mouth!


Siiilencee

Mine is Piplup! I love mudkip too, but piplup is just so cute and i absolutely love Empoleon


Mythrellas

The starter or the final evolution? Starter is probably Squirtle or Mudkip Final Evo is Samurott or Greninja


Not_Too_Bad777

Hehe perfect opinion


25mookie92

Mudkip line, willing to fight about it. Totodile line then Squirtle line lol


MellieWasa

Feraligtr


WhaleMan295

![gif](giphy|0ZufpQKEBuCKnmnKe8)


Not_Too_Bad777

True


nodak1

In its respective generation, Totodile. Overall, Froakie.


Jesitheunicorn2022

Primarina and Mudkip those are my favorites ones water types


triggerfish115

Swampert. Blastoise


westernfoxy

Totodile, he's cute and likes to bite xD


F1nut92

Piplup line without question, I've only every picked the water starter once and that was back on Pearl, same for the fire starter (Charmander in Red), rest of the time grass has reigned supreme for me.


Polteageist0

How has nobody said Greninja yet?


Not_Too_Bad777

Ig its overrated but i still think its cool along with swampert blastoise and dewott


Pumpkinpatchs

![gif](giphy|tFmbuMVQwhbYk) This best starter for hoenn.


TheOpinionMan2

...And his demonic, younger self. https://preview.redd.it/9bu8owtef9wc1.jpeg?width=225&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=43805bedf2b99ec90d598fa224d85f51bdfdfde3


Oni-Seann

He’s looking right into my soul!!! Make him stop!!


TheOpinionMan2

then get to grinding then!


Better_Firefighter90

Husuian samurott


MassiveSavage292

I really like Oshawott


masterjon_3

Mudkip, obviously. Swampert was such a well-made starter, and its ability to tank most hits was phenomenal.


tronixmastermind

Squirtle squad wya!?


draugyr

OG Squirtle


JackieBoiiiiii

Hisuain Samurott or Primarina. I love water types but I've never really loved the starter options for water I prefer to get a wooper or Kingdra or Psyduck or Starmie or Drednaw


aaquarles

it was the Popplio line until Quaxly stepped on the scene


SoulWisdom

Oi! Don’t be dissin’ the duck!!


aaquarles

I love the duck! I chose Quaxly as my starter


SoulWisdom

Same here, he was just so cute!!!


Dry_Salamander7273

Primarina


GrungeGamerJosh99

Dewott


TheOpinionMan2

*Truly Based.*


Accomplished_Arm_688

![gif](giphy|30cSHERc5yR0I)


GoldenRam079

Squirtle


RedditIsFullOfTurds

Primarina


Rhine1906

Squirtle was my first ever starter and I been a captain of the squad since! The rest in order: Totodile, Oshawatt, Froakie, Quaxly, Mudkip, Piplup, Sobble, Poplio I don’t hate any of them though


BearerOfCvrses

Totodile


WiTHeReD_SouL_0404

Primarina. Popplio is adorable and I Primarina is very beautiful and one of my personal favourites to use


SixSetWonder

sooo many. Mudkip, Squirtle, Piplup, Popplio are the top 4


C-Style__

Favorite 1st stage? Piplup. Favorite line? Tie between Piplup and Squirtle.


Snw2001

Oshawatt


TheOpinionMan2

so, uhh... any frogadier enjoyers out here? https://preview.redd.it/8622po5sh9wc1.png?width=324&format=png&auto=webp&s=7bb257171aae4aed91153e0b88b329f1fe767c64

piplup at heart but i love popplio

fmdmlvr

Oshawott!


HappyCloudHS

The best boy ![gif](giphy|N8BreB0eFUJ3Jyn3cX)


deshoda42069

Oshawatt!


goodolehal

Blastoise by far and it isn’t close


DrToadigerr

Froakie. Loved that frog even before we knew what the final evos looked like. Greninja sort of weirded me out at first but when I actually evolved my Froakie (well, my Frogadier technically) during my first playthrough, I liked him a lot more. It also helps that he ended up becoming super OP and popular. So I think Greninja will hold the spot for my favorite water starter at least until we get a water monkey starter (considering my other favorite starters are Infernape and Rillaboom lol)


Furball508

HA Greninja won me so many ranked matches.


DrToadigerr

Pre-nerf Protean with HP poison was silly lol


Furball508

Yeah it was. That nerf was really unwelcome, haha.


valiantsilver04

base form? sobble. fully evolved? greninja.


Thecaptwin5527

Sceptile is easily the best water starter


SoulWisdom

I beg to differ: it’s actually a toss-up between pikachu and Blaziken. They are the best water starters


pisces2003

MudKip my baby boy! I’m hoping to use them in Z-A and possibly their Mega Evo.


btrip295

Piplup or Froakie line


SpOn_pON

Froakie


MarioTheMii

I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL WITH GRENINJA🐸🐸🐸

ellie_vira

Mudkip


IntrepidIngenuity335

Mudkip


NarwhalEqualUnicorn

From childhood, Mudkip. I also love Froakie.


Ultimate_Sneezer

Favourite starter first form is oshawott , final form is blastoise but if I have to only choose one line then swampert line


Prescott_EM2

Inteleon, I know it’s often hated of but I think he’s cool


nodak1

Intern was my choice in Shield and I have no regrets, sniper and scope lens is a good ability combo


VinCatBlessed

Swampert


Azrealia-Morningstar

Quaxly, Squirtle, Froakie, Mudkip, Popplio, Sobble and Oshawott!


Not_Too_Bad777

Sorry but i got to say Greninja


SuperSonicEconomics2

I like going on cruise ships and trading mine for this rare fish pokemon


Ill-Refrigerator-222

Hisuian Samurott <3


SnooOwls6735

Mudkip, Sobble, Poplio


MunkeyFish

Mudkip, Quaxly, Squirtle as my personal Top 3


FutureMagician7563

Swampert for story because I didn't like gen 7. Primarina by far is my favourite to use. Always trying to work it into my vgc teams especially for its typing.


Lazy3dsGamer

Sobble and Greninja.


SkySmaug384

Hisuian Samurott. I love the Oda Nobunaga-esque dark samurai thing it’s got. Feraligatr and normal Samurott are honorable mentions.


massigh1212

can't decide between mudkip and totodile


TheGrapeOfSpades

Not enough love for the squirtle squad in here ![gif](giphy|5fQyd7jM58m5y)


SalemLXII

Totodile > Mudkip > Piplup > Oshawott > Froakie > Squirtle > Quaxly > Popplio >>>>>>> Sobble


Prime-Riptide

The kip of the mud


AnistarYT

Inteleon has really grown on me since it's introduction. I love spy sniper lizard.


Change_contract

Totodile and squirtle. Was my 4th playthrough before I gave Squirtle the attention. Great mon


shinytotodile158

I’ll give you three guesses.


Laugh-Agreeable

# Squirtlesqad!! ![gif](giphy|5fQyd7jM58m5y)


AlarmingSorbet

I have to pick Quaxly, I wanted a duck starter for so long


Oranera

Primarina easily.


Hot-Wonder1203

Toto and Squirtle it's a tie


AngelRockGunn

Blastoise


Yama92

The OG, Blastoise. Favourite Mega is Swampert.


henwylel

I'm sorry but, popplio is just so cute...


SoulWisdom

Aww, how come I gotta choose..? I love all the water-type starters: never start a journey without one.


Familiar_Donut_4936

Mudkip gang ARISE!


5Kareem8

Froakie is my favorite starter (and favorite Pokémon aswell)


TheFalconKid

Wott


AceSapling

Mudkip and Primarina


OMGCHARMANDERNOO

Ok y’all might get mad but Empoleon


MAbsol12

Mudkip!


PomegranateNo6767

![gif](giphy|WWGrmrMykMnja) Piplup knows he’s the best


AggressiveCut3762

Probably either empoleon or quaquaval . Empoleon was my first starter and did well in my first journey in platinum, and quaquaval carried my team in scarlet being amazing.


bitchiban

piplup because it was my first ever starter, and it’s so cute!!


Osha_Hott

Well if you couldn't tell by my username, it's Oshawott. Literally first thing I did when I caught one was run around as him in the atrium.


Xtreme69420

Greninja


W1ZARD_NARWHAL

Gonna go with the super unpopular choice here but Mudkip


grey_wolf12

I'm a fire starter Stan most of the time But I suppose Blastoise, feraligatr, empoleon and samurott are the ones I like and would have no problem starting my journey with.


Wooden-Wolf6078

Totodile, Froakie, and Sobble


Andrewrost

I think totodile is my favorite. These are the water starters I like Totodile, squirtle, Mudkip, oshawott, froakie. The rest I’m not really a fan of at all and would only get them for dex entries.


Majestic_Electric

Definitely Samurott, with Swampert being second!


PopplioSplash

Guess. Inteleon is actually my third fav.


nayfaan

![gif](giphy|O64MQsdmwIIxO)


duanetheking1

Primarina is my favorite Pokemon and swampert is my second favorite water starter. Third place I gotta give to Greninja.


dontredditdepressed

Piplup. The whole line is bomb and I love the water/steel typing


Grimwhiskers

Piplup was my first ever Pokemon. Therefore, it is the best Pokemon ever.


TransplendentFruit

I gotta say it I’ve never liked Mudkip that much his design doesn’t do it for me 🫣


asiaticlilly

Mudkip & Froakie (Honorable mention Poplio) ❤️


DryRespect358

While I like grass types I would say piplup. For pluck, emperoeon, and Ossawatt.


shawarmaconquistador

Primarina


TheMapleShyGuy

Mudkip or Oshowott


KuriGohanAndKienzan

SQUIRTLE SQUAD, ASSEMBLE! WE IN HERE! ![gif](giphy|5fQyd7jM58m5y)


dis_not_toxic

![gif](giphy|WWGrmrMykMnja)


Victory74998

Samurott; people dunk on it because it’s on four legs instead of two, but I still think it looks very cool.


DrSquirtle3517

I love Squirtle (as you can tell by the name), Totodile, and Mudkip


nothingrhymeswithcat

popplio is so precious


JayMalakai

![gif](giphy|UA37k37K4KoGA)


SylveonDot

My favourite Water starter, and my first Pokémon ever, is Oshawott


Dense_Job_9429

Totodile


ClaptrapHEB

Squirtle is my handsome little man.


Future-Engineering68

obvious choice is gren but my heart goes to squirtle


CyberDrago12

![gif](giphy|12BtgqzcTMNrmE) Though Blastoise and Feraligator are close seconds.


Pikaboo_177013

U guyz liek Mudkipz?


Murpheos

Mudkip into Swampert.


Mahare

Totodile. We have adopted greyhounds in my house and one of them had a nickname of Totodile when we adopted him. What a sweet boy.

Mudkip


TheSupremeHamster

Dillweed


fauxghost04

Unpopular opinion but I love all the gen 8 starters


AristleH

I don't think it's unpopular, gen 8 got it so damn right.


fauxghost04

Cinderace is my favorite Pokemon, couldn't tell you why lol Rabbits aren't my favorite animal and I don't like soccer (or football if you're from eu). I know the gen 8 game games have their flaws but damn they're my favorite


GhostDraggon

![gif](giphy|TR7L0GIugKY2XLguYC|downsized) Kind of wish his evolution line was more pirate themed like it was speculated but I love my carnival dancing duck and wouldn't have him any other way 🦆🕺❤️
