I'd like to know peoples starter choices through the generations. Mine are as follows:

Kanto: Charmander (overrated but I love the design.)

Johto: Totodile (Feraligatr is soo cool.)

Hoenn: Treecko (Torchic and Mudkip are tied for a close second.)

Sinnoh: Turtwig (Torterra was the only Pokémon on my Pearl team who could defeat Cynthia's Milotic, which had been wiping out the rest of my team.)

Unova: Snivy (no disrespect to Oshawott or Tepig, but Snivy is the obvious correct choice. Need I say more?)

Kalos: Froakie (Slightly overrated, but I think water shuriken is one of the coolest signature moves.)

Alola: Rowlet (My Decidueye OHKO'd Ultra Necrozma with spirit shackle.)

Galar: Sobble (I have really bad anxiety issues so I can relate.)

Paldea: Fuecoco (I disliked Quaxly and Sprigatito.)

    Chikorita easily seen by profile pick

    Mudkip like it

    Piplup it’s a penguin I love penguins that’s why I also like eiscue

    Oshawott it’s an otter I love otters

    Kanto: Bulbasaur (technically I chose it in Kalos, and I played Let's Go Eevee for my Kanto adventure, so maybe Eevee)

    Johto (and Hisui): Cyndaquil (VC Crystal)

    Hoenn: Treecko (Alpha Sapphire)

    Sinnoh: Turtwig (Brilliant Diamond. I chose it because I had a team idea, but after I did, I realized the idea didn't quite work as I wanted. At least I got an excuse to use Houndoom on a team.)

    Unova: Oshawott (White)

    Kalos: Froakie (and technically Bulbasaur. This was in X)

    Alola: Litten (Sun and, later, Ultra Sun)

    Galar: Grookey (Sword)

    Paldea: Sprigatito (Scarlet)

    I am showing every starter I chose through every Pokemon game I played.

    Kanto: Squirtle, Charmander is overrated.

    Sinnoh: Piplup, Again fire starter is overrated.

    Hoenn: Muskip is the best

    Galar: Scorebuny, Cute and overpowered.

    Paldea: Sprigatito, I have a cat of my own, and it’s cute, final stage evolution is overpowered.

    Kanto: I planned to pick Charmander. I got Pokémon Red when it came out and Charizard looked so good on the box. But I actually ended up picking Squirtle. I liked the one with sunglasses in the anime and I thought the sprite was cuter in the game.

    I picked Charmander in FRLG, though. These days for most playthroughs I pick Bulbasaur.

    Johto: Cindaquil. One of my favourites.

    Hoenn: I think I picked Torchic first time. I think I shamefully picked Mudkip for the meme in one playthrough.

    Sinnoh: First time I picked Chimchar. Later playthroughs I fell in love with Turtwig.

    Unova: Snivy. I loved its design.

    Kalos: The grass one. I don't remember its name.

    Alola: Rowlet. I love him.

    Galar: I didn't particularly like any of them, especially their evolutions. I liked Scorbunny, but boxed it immediately.

    Paldea: Fuecoco. I liked the other two, but not their bipedal evolutions.

    Bulbasaur is the MVP

    Cynadquil, love the cyndaquil line so much

    Treecko cause lizard. And also my first Pokémon card pack I bought ever I got a rainbow sceptile ex.(also I own 2 geckos in real life)

    Turtwig because turtle(I love reptiles incase you haven’t noticed)

    Snivy, though I love oshawott too

    Froakie’s whole line is awesome.

    Litten, easily, love the cute cat, love torrocat, and incineroar is cool too. Not a huge fan of the other two at all.

    Cinderace, cute fire bunny.

    Fuecoco, a crocodile, love reptiles, love fire types, really cute, crocalor is a meh middle stage but skeledirge is SO COOL.

    Bulbasaur

    Chikorita

    Mudkip lookit his face!!!

    Piplup

    Oshawott

    Litten, even though I don't like the rest of the line.

    This one is between Sobble and Grookey, since I like Grookey but not Rilaboom, and I like Inteleon but I don't like Sobble. I think Sobble wins though.

    Sprigatito.
