Best in order

Swampert and Infernape. Swampert was the best before 4th Gen and now he shares that title with Infernape.


My personal favorite

Empoleon

Blastoise is my favorite.

Something about a giant turtle with cannons on its back is just awesome.

I never started with Mudkip, so I'm partial to Chimchar.
Torchic would be up there if its stats weren't overshadowed by Chimchar.

Cuz every other starter can learn Earthquake when it evolves, two are immune to electric attacks...pretty much.

Not counting Eeveelutions of course.

The best starter ever is Infernape. Easily. Followed by Empoleon and then Swampert. Infernape is the most dangerous, versatile sweeper imaginable. Empoleon is also really dangerous in it's own right. Swampert is a great supporter and tank, but it's not a sweeper by any means and it's not nearly as utilitarian as the other two.

Favorite? Empoleon or Feraligatr.

Chimchar...eventually Infernape hands down...too big of movepool to exploit, could build him into anything you needed.

Typlosion sucks.

Unless you start with it and spam Eruption, which is blatantly obvious, it's complete garbage. And even that set is beaten by any bulky Water/Heatran/Dragon-type Pokemon and Stealth Rock.
