If you mean favorite, I'd say Charmander.But BEST would be Bulbasaur in Red/Blue/Yellow and Fire Red/Leaf Green since you can easily beat the first three Gym leaders.

I think that Squirtle is the best starter so far, but i am partial to water poke so that may have something to do with it. :P

Mudkip. Swampert has good defenses and very good attack power and he only has 1 real weakness.

I say the water ones in the first two sets and the fire one in the last set. Water is a weakness of many types. The only reason water was not as good in the last ones was because there were hardly any fire Pokemon but plenty of water ones.

Charmander, bacause when he evolves he gets not only strong fire attacks, but also metal claw and wing attack.

Charmander's hard to train at first, but its usually the one I like most. Arguably Squirtle's got some decent moves but I'm more of a fire type than a water type!Also, Charizard has the ability to learn a move that can easily beat rock/ground types with ease... :P

Charmander, especially in Fire Red. Granted, you'll have a bit of trouble with Misty, but otherwise you're fine.

Sqirtle in b/r/gTotodile in cand mudkip in ruby/saphireI tend to like water pokemons because thay have a great defense as they evolve and in the newer version of pokemosn water pokemons tend to have a greater variety of attacks which could work undermany scenarious

Torchik, Cindiquil & Charmander, cause fire pokemons rulxxx. It can be hard at the beggining of the game but they kick asses in a lot of gyms. Grass types & water types can be good, but a good fire pokemon is difficult to find, so I prefer to have one as a starter.

Squirtle kicks donkey. Heck, if you teach his second form Dig, you can have a Digging, Hydro pumping Blastoise!

I definatly like Charmander the best but it shocked me that Torchik got more votes, Torchik stinks!, he never even learns a good fire atack until blaze kick which is stupid, how can you use a fire pokemon without flamethrower? Torchik stinks. Thats all i got to say, Charmander rules.
