Which Paldea Starter did you choose for your first playthrough?

While I agree that reviving an old topic is frowned upon, not everyone gets Generation 9 right when it comes out. Be it they just didn't like it or, like me, didn't have a Switch until very recently(I just got one with Scarlett). So to answer this question, I'll probably go with Fuecoco. Fire starter meshes well with my Alolan Vulpix I intend to trade for in my first playthrough rather than waiting until the postgame to get one. Rounding out the team would be Arboliva, Gyrados, Gallade and Clodsire. Team is still tentative though, could change in the coming days since I won't be playing until Xmas(currently under the tree).

I learned rather quickly that in the 2nd Nemona Fight, Pawmi can be completely walled/mitigated by Paldean Wooper or Diglett if you happen to catch one in the Cave. Having nothing but Electric Attacks, a simple Ground Type is all you need to take it down with w/e moves that suit you since it can't fight back. If I was to do a 2nd run, I'm leaning towards Sprigatito. While there are solid Grass Type alternatives, my plan is to do a Liko run or Sprigs(Meowscarada), Hatenna(Hatterene now), Charcadet(likely Armarouge) and Terapagos when I eventually get it(so I'll only have 5 Team members until I do). Unless the Anime says otherwise, the other two slots are at my discretion.

Didn't I mention Terapagos or am I going senile at my young age? It'll be apart of the team but not until I catch it. Until then I'll make do with just 5.
