I remember using the bug to get all 3 starters in Gold. Typhlosion and Feraligatr were destroying the Elite Four while Chikorita was lv 10 and in the PC.
It seemed like a fun idea at the time to finish the game with three starters but I got bored of Chikorita pretty quick.
Lets be honest. There is really only one correct choice with gen I & II starters, and that is Charmander.
Can't wait to introduce the part of the story where people with Charmanders lose all of their Pokemon
Nah, given there are only 6 pokemon to choose from. Can't blame people for going for something different. If we had more generations Chikorita, Piplup and Treecko would all warrant dislikes.
