User blog:AuthorizationRequired/Best Starter to Choose

Does anybody stop and wonder at the starter choices because their are so much? Well, this blog will tell you the best starter to choose.

Personally, I think the best starter is mudkip, only having one weakness which is grass types. So Erika, the grass type gym leader, will one shot your Marshtomp or Swampert.

Choosing The Right Starter
Ok, enough of me talking. Let's get to choosing the right starter.

These are the gym leader types in order:

Rock Type Pokemon

Water Type Pokemon

Electric Type Pokemon

Grass Type Pokemon

Poison Type Pokemon

Psychic Type Pokemon

Fire Type Pokemon

Ground Type Pokemon

The grass type pokemon have 2 gyms that are super-effective against it: The Poison Gym, and the Fire Type Gym. The grass type pokemon also has 3 gyms that grass is super-effective against: The Rock Type Gym, The Water Type Gym, and the Ground Type gym. To counter the poison and fire type gym, use either a Treecko or Snivy, the 2 fastest grass type starters.

The water type pokemon have 2 gyms that are super-effective against it: The Electric Gym, and the Grass Type Gym. The water type also has 3 gyms (similar to the grass type) that water is super-effective against: The Rock Type Gym, The Fire Type Gym, and the Ground Type Gym. So I would recommend a Squirtle or Froakie, the 2 strongest water type starters.
