Bulbasaur (Grass)
* Starting Moves:
* Tackle: A basic physical attack.
* Growl: Lowers the opponent's Attack stat.
Charmander (Fire)
* Starting Moves:

* Ember: A fire-type special attack.
Squirtle (Water)
* Starting Moves:
* Tackle: A basic physical attack.
* Bubble: A water-type special attack.
Important Notes:
* Type Advantages: Fire is strong against Grass, Grass is strong against Water, and Water is strong against Fire. This creates a rock-paper-scissors dynamic that influences which starter is best suited for different battles.
* Evolution: As your starter levels up, it will evolve through two stages:
* Bulbasaur evolves into Ivysaur and then into Venusaur.
* Charmander evolves into Charmeleon and then into Charizard.
* Squirtle evolves into Wartortle and then into Blastoise.
* Move Learning: As your starter levels up, it will learn new moves. You'll have the option to choose which moves your Pokemon learns, allowing you to customize its moveset to fit your playstyle.
Choosing the Right Starter:
The best starter for you depends on your playstyle and the challenges you encounter in the game. Consider these factors:
* Your Play Style: Do you prefer a defensive, offensive, or balanced approach?
* The Early Game: The first Gym Leader is a Grass-type, making Fire a strong advantage. The second Gym Leader is a Water-type, making Grass a strong advantage.
* The Later Game: All three starters evolve into powerful Pokemon, but their type advantages and weaknesses will shift throughout the game.
No matter which starter you choose, you'll have a strong and reliable companion throughout your Pokemon LeafGreen adventure!
