I think Squirtle has the best approach with the shellshift

It's a toss up between Squirtle and Charizard. Squirtle is way too cute, and I like how he flies around the stage making all of the shell shifting sounds while saying "Squirt, Squirt" at every move he makes. Gotta love the up taunt too. Charizard is one of my favorites as well because he's just a flying powerhouse, and with a really large grab range and nice aerials that wreck havoc on opponents off the stage, there's not a lot to dislike about him.

True, but what the heck! ever since the first Pokemon, I've always liked Charmander. Charmander evolves into Charmeleon, who in turn evolves into Charizard. Ever since, they've been my favorites. When I leaned of PT, I didn't think much of it, until I saw the picture a few seconds later, with Charizard with him. It was among the best days of my life for that reason (behind only the Simpsons Movie and, of course, the release of Brawl).

I agree that Charizard is probably my favorite, but I also enjoy using both Ivysaur and Squirtle. I kinda wish he had brought a total of 6 Pokemon, though, to fill a whole party.
I love Rock Smash.

Squirtle was my favorite pokemon before I knew he was in brawl, but to play as in the game, I much prefer Ivysaur.

You know when he B-Airs and people assume that it is his tail?

Yeah...
That is not his tail.

My favorite is probablly Squirtle. He has nice speed, nice smash attacks (especially his Usmash), and a nice recovery. Squirtle may not seem fancy but for some reason he's my favorite. The thing I hate about him is his Fsmash, it barely has any knockback or range...

Ivysaur. Hell yeah. He is the best Pokemon in the game. B-D

I like Squirtle's combo and gimping abilities... Ivy's range and bullet seeds... Charizard's grab range and spike... I use Ivy and Charry the most, Squirtle a bit less...

I Like Squirtle. he is pretty fast, his UP smash is kinda great, and there are many possibilities of combos

Ivysaur, he (or She >_>) was my first starter in Red. Plus... It's Ivysaur
I hate the other two though. I wish I could use her only. She would be my secondary if I could

maybe the comparison of super spammy fspecial and powered usmashes. Maybe?
I say squirtle because he's just awesome. And I can happily say he's my best as well.

Why do people call Ivysaur a girl? It's obviously a dude.Ivysaur, he (or She >_>) was my first starter in Red. Plus... It's Ivysaur
I hate the other two though. I wish I could use her only. She would be my secondary if I could
Because of his voice in the japanse version.
Ofc he's a dude.

Ivy is a girl's name, though that's probably not the reason most people refer to Ivysaur as she.

Really I like them all in Brawl. Squirtle was my fav from the anime, but in the game I like them all.
Squirt for his forward air As.
Ivy for his dash across the screen, jump up under a foe and upsmash for a kill on the stock. Nothing is more exciting than a well timed upsmash, other than a beastly forward A.
Charzy for his up smash which looks so mystical.
I love 'em all!
I felt the same way.
Seeing Squirtle there got me so interested further in Brawl. I was buying the game mostly because of online and to play as Pikachu, but PT made it golden. Hehe...some days you must have. You must be caught up with tru='s Squirtle video.
I've always associated Bulbasaur to be "boyish", so why change?
Ivysaur is what that pokemon is called across its species. Just like Pikachu...they are all Pikachu. They aren't unique and singularly named like Mewtwo.

I like ivysaur best. Spacing games are really fun. Also, I was a jiggz main in melee, and I like how both ivy and jiggz have a gam-breaking move (bullet seed/rest.)

ivy is my fav.i think that in the hands of a master he is the best character.bullet s stops many combos and most cg's.and he to me is a mk molester.mk's underestimate him,hes not that easy to gimp,much harder than oli.and when u use vinewhip and hear that crack,ull most likely receive a very rewarding ko.and he gimps nicely with his Bair,ppl with 2 jumps anyways.just wish he had leech seed or sleep powder T_T

OK, on the Ivysaur's gender thing (along with every other playable Pokemon in Smash history), here is a not so brief load down of Pokemon:
Pikachu: Pikachu is the only Pokemon in Brawl with a 50-50 chance of being male or female. Also, Pikachu is the only playable pokemon in smash history to have a gender difference. A gender difference is a mechanic in Diamond/Pearl that lets you determine a Pokemon by looking at it instead of it's meter. Female Pikachus have a grove in its tail so it has a heart shape. This Pikachu, does not, so we can definitely say this one is a male.
Squirtle, Ivysaur, Charizard, and Lucario: most event Pokemon have an 87.5% chance of being male, and a 12.5% chance of being female. Lucario has a male voice, and two (likely accidental) times where it is called a he (Snake's codec and the description of event match #25), so we can say that there is a higher chance that this Lucario is a male (and there is even some evidence that this is the Lucario from the 8th Pokemon movie too). Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard don't have any evidence to lean towards either gender, so the default ratio is the deciding factor, All three are male with a 12.5% chance that you are wrong for saying so.
Jigglypuff: While not an event Pokemon, Jigglypuff has an awkward ratio for a naturally occurring Pokemon. 75% female, and 25% male. By this fact (or ipso facto) there are 4 females in Brawl (not counting doubles, counting those, there are 6).
Pichu: While not in Brawl, Pichu was in Melee. Also, Pichu has the same gender ratio as Pikachu without a gender difference (even in Diamond/Pearl), so call it whatever you want.
Mewtwo: Mewtwo is genderless, no johns!
done.

I was referring to the name "Ivy", like this girl I knew from High School was named Ivy, and then there's Ivy Valentine from the Soul Calibur series. So when I refer to Ivysaur as "Ivy" it's almost as if I'm referring to a girl; that was my reasoning behind it at least.

My personal favorite is Ivysaur, because I really like range he/she has over the other two Pokemon. And there's no feeling like blowing a USmash in an opponent's face and blasting them off the top at abour 50%. However, I still use all three Pokemon evenly, and cracking an opponent with a Rock Smash or shoving an opponent away from safe recovery with Water Gun are almost as satisfying as the pollen bomb.

I personally like to play Squirtle because he's more of the speed type to never give the opponent a chance to hit back. That, and I heard the shellshifting technique is pretty epic (and is something I still need to investigate and try out for myself).
When I'm at a pretty high percentage, I'll switch over to Charizard because of his weight and gliding for recovering. He's just plain strong and has a great grab, and it's a nice change after a quick-paced run with Squirtle.
Ivysaur...he's just not my man. maybe not my playing style, I'm not sure. It looks like he has a lot of fans here on this thread now, so I'm going to see if I can break him in a little bit and see what everyone else sees in him..
Overall, I'd say Squirtle
