So with starter Pokémon being such a big decision, which one of the original three was the most popular?
To find out the answer, Japan’s MyNavi recently conducted a survey of 400 college students, asking them which Pokémon they chose when they played for the first time, and why.
Squirtle (130 people, 32.5%)If Bulbasaur is the “odd-looking” one, then Squirtle is the “cute-looking” one.
Here’s what the survey-takers who chose Charmander had to say:“Fire-type is the most useful.”“I chose it because it’s the cutest of the three.”“It just looked like the most fun one.”Really?
If you played Pokémon 20 years ago, or any of the original remakes, which of the three starters did you choose?
