    The first time I played them, I was helping a friend, and they wanted Treecko.

    When I played on my own for the first time, though, I chose Mudkip.

    Still my favourite, it and its evolutions look so dumb but in a cool way.

    I never liked gen 3. It came out when Pokémania had died out and my schoolmates and friends had moved on. I think most believed the series was all but over at that point. I was upset to learn that I could not transfer my Pokémon from gens 1 and 2 to the new generation. I thought that the plot was utterly stupid, with the self-destructive goals of the evil teams, and I hated the amount of tedious surfing required in a region that was half water. Just because you are enamoured with a theme or concept narratively does not mean it makes for a fun game world.

    I tried playing the remakes in gen 6 and recently I thought I would try the version many cite as the best and played through Emerald. I still do not like it. I have tried my best to give the games a fair chance with three playthroughs, one of each available version, not counting paired versions. It never won me over.

    As for my starter choices, I think I chose Mudkip for my first playthrough of Ruby after gen 3's launch. I picked Treeko for another playthrough that I abandoned due to boredom. For Omega Ruby I picked Torchic. I did finish the game, primarily to see the new Delta Episode content. For Emerald I picked Mudkip again.
