I used to start with water, but I realized that a perfect in game team doesn't need a water pokemon (That is, if you can cheat and get a Raikou to learn surf XD), so now I pick the fire type most of the time.
Actually, it depends on the region.
Kanto=Charmander
Johto=Totodile
Hoenn=Mudkip
Sinnoh=Chimchar

I usually pick the one best for beating the gyms in the region.
I pick them based on that and my favorites.
Kanto: Bulbasaur is the best for early gyms
Johto: Cyndaquil because it's awesome and it's the recommended Johto starter
Hoenn: Mudkip cuz it ROCKS! Plus it's pretty good against early gyms.
Sinnoh: Chimchar is a good choice against most of the gyms except Pastoria.
In SoulSilver my Typhlosion is level 85! Beat that!

Normally water, but this is how it goes...
Kanto: I choose Squirtle. Second choice is Charmander.
Johto: Any is good, but best is Totodile and second Cyndaquil.
Hoenn: Torchic is first. Second is Mudkip. But all are good anyways.
Sinnoh: Piplup comes first. Second is by far Turtwig. Can't stand Chimchar.
Isshu: Mijumaru definately. Second is either Tsutarja or Pokabu, but I'm leaning towards Tsutarja.

Fire for generations 1 and 3
Water for generations : 2 and 4

Uh...
I chose Chikorita in SS... (Prepares to be flamed)

i think the best starters out of the regions is the johto starters cuz when they evolve they have no secondary types

Where did FMT go.
Around this time he'd be talking about how level doesn't matter.
Offline
Kanto: Squirtle
Johto: Chikorita
Hoenn: Treeko (SO I HERD YOU LIEK TREEKOZ)
...that's it. I don't play the new games.
But if I DID have Diamond or Pearl, I would probs pick Piplup.

Water!!!! I've never played a sinnoh game, but here are the starters I chose for the other regions:
Hoenn: MUDKIP(water)
Johto: TOTODILE
Kanto: SQUIRTLE
Offline
The only game I have is FireRed (I know, ancient, amiright? -_-), and I always use Bulbasaur, because grass-type pwns against the early gym leaders. But I am getting Pokemon Black when it comes out on the ninth, and I'll probably use Pokabu or Tsutarja.

The people who would flame you for choosing the most difficult Pokemon to use would be idiots. I'm a personal advocate of using the more difficult option as it's more fun.

Kanto-Charmander
Johto-Chikorita
Hoenn-Torchic but I regret it
Sinnoh-I hate them all, but I chose Turtwig because of it's last evo

What I would choose now:
Kanto: Bulbasaur
Jhoto: Cyndaquil
Hoenn: Treeko
Sinnoh: Turtwig
What I did choose:
Kanto: Charmander/Butterfree(I used it like a starter)
Jhoto: Chickorita/Tododile
Hoenn: Mudkip
Sinnoh: Turtwig/Piplup
Offline
Actually, now that I think about it, I think I would choose CHARMANDER for Kanto. Or PIKACHU(in yellow
)
Offline
Totodile for all generations. (P.S. My level 100 Gengar beats almost anything.)
Offline
Water types are obviously the best.

Not when you're stuck on the bug gym, with only a Chickorita, a Ghastly, a Sentret, an Onix, and a Pidgey. Oh, and a Togepi.
