I voted Gold, but Platinum or it's generation is also good.

As for starters, go for the Water dude, it's good in every gen. Grass and Fire both have weak points.

If we're going with the Diamond/Pearl/Platinum generation (~~unlikely? I dunno~~Very likely, it seems), you may wish to choose Fire regardless.
There are only 2 Fire types in the whole game (initially) and while Ponyta/Rapidash isn't bad, they're available late in the game, if I recall correctly, leaving you without fire-support.

Pun fully intended.

I love me some awesome fucking flaming porcupines.

3) Don't care.

4) Also don't care, but I'd really just say catch as much as you can.

Even if you don't use the Legendaries, just kill them and mount their heads on your wall or something (that is an option in Pokemon right?).

I vote this.

I'm torn between the good old nostalgic Red/Fire or a 3rd gen. 3rd gen, because then you could eventually catch absol. And I like absol.

I voted Blue because FUCK YOU PIKACHU WHY WILL YOU NOT EVOLVE INTO RAICHU FUCK YOU

Go with Squirtle.

Also your team should be Blastoise, Pidgeot, Raticate (cause I hate you), either Arcanine or Rapidash or Ninetails, Rhydon, and Alakazam.

Open-catching.

I vote Blue for pure nostalgia.

Starter Bulbasaur.

CABAL49 · 01-04-2010, 11:51 PM

Yellow. Then put Pikachu into a box and never use him again for no reason.

Nikose Tyris · 01-04-2010, 11:52 PM

Actually Raticate was one of my favorites when I did an all-mouse playthrough.

@Tev: That is exactly what I want.

2nd Generation, though containing some weird ones, was far better than the first generation. Pokemon got ridiculous after that.

I voted for Blue version because that was my first pokemon game. Starter of Squirtle, open catching, and I don't care what's in your party as long as it has a haunter in it. (Gengar is preferred, but I don't think you'll put that much effort into it to trade him.)
