Contest Clash of the Water-starters!

[Pride]

Which one would dominate? I pick Swampert.

 

[Zekurom]

I pick Pokemon by design, not purely by stats and battling ability.

On that merit, I choose Daikenki. A close second would be Swampert.

 

[GliscorMan]

This was hard... The water starters are usually my favorites (Jaroda, Typhlosion are exceptions). I went with Blastoise because he's a really awesome turtle. Skull Bash is one of my favorite moves.

 

[Blaah]

Swampert for me. An easy pick too.

 

[SharKing]

My personal fave is Daikenki.

 

[Twylis]

Daikenki. It jus looks kewl (¬ ¬)

Sucky 100th post is sucky!

 

[Rakarei]

Blastoise. Nice bulk + Rain dish = TANK

 

[#Daisuke#]

Empoleon for being a badass steel penguin.

But Daikenki is oh so very awesome, too. Empoleon's just my favorite.

 

[Togechu]

I like Blastoise and I've taken a new liking to Feraligatr. Swampert is okay, and Empoleon and Daikenki are..sorta bleh. But Daikenki's way batter imo, I hated the Sinnoh starters except for Turtwig.

 

[Morcombe]

Blastoise wins!

 

[Ghost]

Empoleon is fairly good, with typing.

I pick Pokemon by design, not purely by stats and battling ability.

On that merit, I choose Daikenki. A close second would be Swampert.

Same here, except I'm going with Feraligatr. It was my first starter ever and I still love it. I like all of the other water starters too though.

Daikenki is the cleverest in terms of design (who would have thought of a samurai sea lion-otter?), and definitely has potential. Here's hoping that he gets the awesome Shell Break in the third game, so that he has a very powerful niche.

 

[Agent_Kir]

Daikenki?
SWAMPERT!

 

[Catzeye]

I love all the water starters (except Empoleon) however I have to go with...

*drumroll*

DAIKENKI!!! QUADRUPEDAL, SAMURAI OTTER/NARWHAL HYBRIDS FOR THE WIN!!!

 

[Master Mew]

Feraligatr for me, as he was my first Water Starter... EVER. (Pokemon Gold Version)

 

[Zwampert]

Swampert for me. Daikenki would be close second. I picked Swampert since it was my first pokemon, and I really loved it as a Mudkip.

 

[Absolclaw]

I'm going to go with Daikenki. It's a strong samurai water type. It also has armor and weapons which would really help it. I also really like it's design.

In my mind, it would actually be pretty close in a battle. Blastoise and Feraligatr would be near tied due to their main traits, but Empoleon would be pretty hard for most of them to take down besides Swampert.

 

[Mijzelffan]

Just like Swampert more than the others.

 

[Cyber Jet]

Daikenki he looks epic and is epic in moves and stats.
