Well, I started with Tepig. It's a normal tradition for me to go with the fire type. Haven't gotten far as of yet, what with the work. But interesting little differences, such as the Team Rocket equivalent - Team Plasma, appearing very early on. And the two opening battles. Wandering around the Dreamyard, in anticipation for the first gym (did the first battle in the gym, and just scraped by, so I knew I had to heed the Leader's advice).
Enjoying it so far, tis a nice relaxing way to spend a half-hour after a long day of computer programming and writing reports, and other such yucky college work.
Also, I do very little of raising a team. I raise my starter Pokemon (or occasionally some random Pokemon I encounter and take a liking to) and they are my key element. The other Pokemon are usually just HM users and semi-strong fall guys for the Elite Four Battles.
