I alway go with Cyndaquil whenever I play S/G/C/HG/SS. A personal favorite and has the advantage in a handful of the gyms (Buggy, Jasmine, Pryce)

I went with Totodile, and I was not really happy with my choice.

I was going to create a thread like this, someone beat me to it!xD I'd go with Cyndaquil, as it's weakness is water, and there are lots of Grass (Hoppip) and electric (Mareep) pokemon that can cover up it's weakness. Also, the first gym is a bug type, so you should soar through, it also has the best stats out of all three of them.

The first gym is a flying gym. xD

Cyndaquil. I think it has the best stats and movepool. It's evolution's are also better. (IMO!)

Well I didn't. I would catch a Mareep or a Ghastly.

Although.... going back to the Furret idea, it's a really good HM slave, it can learn Surf, which comes in really handy when you start off in the game and there isn't many good water types.

^ I guess your right, but Furret is still a useful HM slave, even if you don't have it in your team all the time.

Or Wooper?
As a HM slave, I'd use Furret.

You wanna know something? Just take your favourite and know it's weakness and strengths then you are almost unbeatable! As long you know how to fight with it you can win against an electric type with a water type!

Do you mean you beat electric types with you water types, or the other way round? Anyway, Squirtle isn't as good as Charmander, it's stats aren't as good.

BTW, this isn't a trade thread!:P
