Pokémon has been relatively consistent by providing you the option of choosing between a Grass, Fire or Water Type starter Pokémon. The lone exception is Pokémon Yellow and it’s Lets’s GO remakes where they give you Pikachu or Eevee(LGE only). Yet if the restriction to the original trio were removed, what Pokémon Type would you pick and, if you have one in mind, what Pokémon would you take?

To answer my own question, I would start with an Ice Type. Ice has horrible defenses I’ll admit, even going so far as being the worst Type for several Generations but Offensively, Ice is among the strongest. For a Pokémon to start off with, I would choose Alolan Vulpix. Vulpix has always been my favorite Pokémon but Ice has always been my favorite Type. When Gen 7 merged the two together, I became enamored with the regional variant. It doesn’t follow the old formula of a 3-Stage Pokémon but who says it has to follow that? Blue’s Eevee in Yellow version never did so why should I?
