Totodile was my first starter, and it will always be the best starter. Plus, I love the Donald Duck voice the anime dub gave it.
 
I like a lot of starters so I'll list my favorites from every region.

Kanto: Squirtle
Johto: Totodile
Hoenn: Treecko
Sinnoh: Chimchar (I voted for Chimchar because it was my first starter)
Unova: Oshawott
Kalos: Fennekin
 
I like a lot of starters, so like Zkat, I'll list them by region.

Kanto: Bulbasaur
Johto: Cyndaquil
Hoenn: Torchic (this one I voted for in the poll)
Sinnoh: Turtwig (though I do also like Chimchar almost equally)
Unova: Tepig
Kalos: Fennekin (though Froakie is a very close second)
 
I'll go by Generation since I couldn't pick all of my options. :p

Kanto- Squirtle
Johto- Cyndaquil
Hoenn- Treecko
Sinnoh- Piplup and Turtwig (tie)
Unova- Oshawott
Kalos- Fennekin

I actually chose Fennekin as my favorite starter overall simply because it's a fire fox, and I can use it when Vulpix isn't available in games. :p
 
Snivy, because of how regal and smug-looking it is (not to mention that Serperior is one of my all-time favorites).
 
Gotta go with Bulbasaur, you never forget your first starter after all. Though Froakie comes close.
 
Never expected Fennekin to be my most favorite starter.
Back during the 5th gen, didn't like any kind of canines (including foxes) so when the 3 starters got introduced, didn't liked it at first - but somewhere along the way, I started to like foxes.
The cuteness of Fennekin and foxes in general really made me love.
So far no other starter will take it's cuteness place

Funny that during the 5th gen, I said something similar about Oshawott
'No other starter will take Oshy's place'
I'm guessing one of the future 7th gen starters will take Fennekin's place.

for the rest:
Kanto: Charmander --> for MCY, loved it's design
Johto: Cyndaquil --> it's part weasel, so main reason for me liking it
Hoenn: Mudkip --> not really a fan of the Hoenn starters, but Swamper's mega caught my attention
Sinnoh: Chimchar --> Infernape is awesome, slowly started to like Chimchar
Unoa: Oshawott --> sea otter - that's all the reason I need to like it
Kalos: Fennekin --> no surprise there! blame it on the cuteness of foxes
 
It's a tie between Squirtle and Cyndaquil, I really love both of them. :3
 
I have a lot of favorites, but Snivy was my first and I cannot let it down. And Serperior is pretty awesome! That said, I am going to list my favorites from each region.
Kanto: Bulbasaur
Johto: Totodile
Hoenn: Treeko
Sinnoh: Turtwig
Unova: Snivy
Kalos: They all stink.
 
Voted Snivy cos Serperior is a god - especially now Contrary is a thing.
 
Starters suck lol

I know the joke answer is tempting, but we'd all love to hear what your real favorite starter is! Well, I think it's pretty clear from your theme, but you might as well make it official. ;)

(generally posting in threads without answering the question is treated as a Pointless Post just fyi)

Ok sorry and here's a clue about my favourite starter:

Also, is this Pokemon a starter? Ash got him just because the other three were taken, or am I missing something?

Pikachu was used as a starter in Pokemon Yellow. The thread is treating starters as any Pokemon that you receive at the beginning of a main series game as your first Pokemon.
