Starter Pokémon are Pokémon that the player must choose between in the beginning of each Pokémon video game. There are always three Pokémon to choose between. One will be a Water type, another one Grass, and the last one Fire (excluding Pikachu in Pokémon Yellow). The three types create a circle, where each Pokémon is weak to one of the others and strong to the other one. In the games the player's rival always chooses the Pokémon with a type advantage over the player's Pokémon.
It should be noted that Bulbasaur, while typically known as a grass Pokémon, is also a poison type as well. When leveling up, some Starter Pokémon will also gain a second type as well, such as Charizard becoming a fire and flying type and Torterra becoming a Grass and Ground type.
