I haven't seen this topic yet, so I decided to post it myself.
Personally, I prefer Snivy. I like how Serperior looks and the move Coil that it learns is a pretty intense stat raiser seeing as it does Attack, Defense and Accuracy.
I think Tepig is the worst, it's good for typing, like Blaziken it is Fire/Fighting in Emboar, though, it's a pretty bad design, don't get me wrong, it looks complicated to have come up with (in my opinion) but I still don't really like it.
Oshawatt is most definitely my runner-up, I like how cute it is. And then it turns into this beastly horned thing.
I still don't know much about Tepig, Oshawatt or their evolutions, so please, share your opinions on your Favorite Unova Starter.

Well, the first time I played I chose Oshawott, but I didn't like its moves. I didn't played with Tepig because I'm tired of Fire/Fighting starters? Snivy it's the best choice for me.

My favorite is Tepig, because when it evolves into Emboar it's extremely hard to beat, knows powerful moves, like Heat Crash and Flare Blitz, and can cover its weaknesses really well. Oshawott isn't too good when you start out, just your ordinary water type starter. The only reason I like it is because when it evolves into Samurott, it gets fairly powerful, and looks awesome. I really hate Snivy and its evolutions, because they, at least in my opinion, have very low defense and special defense and have a lot of weaknesses, so they're very easy to defeat. So, yeah, Emboar rocks.

My favorite is Snivy, because I like the idea of a grass snake. It's the one I picked, and it's currently my highest-leveled Pokemon. I do think, however, that it could use some better stats and moves, and a second-type, such as Poison or maybe Dragon. There are too many Fire/Fighting starters, and I dislike Fire Types, so I naturally dislike Tepig's line. I don't mind Oshawott, and it's final evo looks pretty cool.

I think the Unova region's starters are the worst.  I'm gonna go to Sinoh for a little while.

Oshawott. Blue's my favorite color, and he has hilarious stubble/freckles. He was my first pokemon and first(and only) non-legend to hit lv.100. He's what got me into the series, so yeah.

Even before i played the game, when i saw Snivy, I knew it would be my favorite. And he was, im positive about this because my unova team has the other 2 starters.

Sure I chose Snivy as my starter (and loved so much put it in my username) but you just gotta love Oshawott. That thing is so derpy it's hilarious. And Ash's Oshawott is hands down his best (and funniest!) Pokemon!

Oshawott is my close second, Tepig trailing behind in last. I have never seen the new Pokemon Anime so I don't know too much about Ash's Oshawott.

Dude, you gotta watch at least one episode. Oshawott freaking pops out of its pokeball to fight a Blitzle. Rotflol

I almost chose Oshawott just to send into opposing Blitzle, but then I chose Snivy, because Serperior is royaly and is...well... surperior.

Yeah. They are both good. I am a bit tired of Fire/Fighting. I know this is only the second one but after Blaziken... I just lost the love for them. BLaziken is still cool but I just dislike Emboar

This is actually the third Fire/Fighting (Infernape love?). But why couldn't the other two have a secondary typing? Serperior is easily a Grass/Dragon and Samurott could pull off a Water/FIghting or Water/Ice type.

Kinda lost Infernape from my mind a sec there. And Grass/Dragon Serperior would be awesome! Except for 4x Ice, and yeah Samurott should have also had fighting since.. well Samurais fight so... yeah.

Yeah, and they made the game as a whole noticably easier than other gens. So I'm like "Where's the challenge?"

I know. The only few gyms that were hard were Electric and Normal. And to be honest I think the artists were seriously depressed when they designed Emboar.

I bet with the right amount of BBQ sauce and some seasoning, it could be quite good!
