I'll probably play Red first & choose Squirtle, Pigeoto, & then I'll catch a Rattata & proceed to tell all you b*tches about how awesome it is, how often I've leveled it up, & that we need to battle every day.
Going with some of my favorites and I'm going to use the starting Pikachu in Yellow for most of the game though after the Pokémon League, I'm switching it out for one of these listed.
