Who is everyone going with? I plan to go with Treecko.

Treeeko as well. Its my favorite of the hoen starters. Also plan on using only gen 3 pokemon.

I can't imagine playing through Hoenn without my old buddy Torchic.

I'm going with Treeko in AS & Mudkip in OR. I'm choosing my starters in terms of tactics to help me deal with the title legendaries in each game, Swampert will have an advantage against regular & primal for Groudon & Sceptile will have an advantage against both regular & primal form Kyogre, this is regardless of the fact I started with Torchic in Sapphire.

Don't we want to not kill the legionaries?

I don't have work or any assignments so I'll be going out at midnight to get my copies from Walmart. Should be different, as I'm usually an early to bed early to rise kind of person.

Wish I could do that but I have class in the morning and its just more convenient to go after class anyway.

I've never started with a Mudkip.
But I don't like Swampert.
So I'll go with Treeko, since Pokemon threw a Torchic at me at the start of X.

You are tearing me appart ORAS!
I REALLY hope there's a store anywhere here that has it.

...And i JUST found out that they're having a midnight launch for these games tonight...

Certainly they'll have extra copies. I went to the midnight launch of X and Y and they had tons of copies even after pre orders were given out.
