Cyndaquil is a small Pokémon with dark blue fur covering the top of his head and down his back. He has a shrew-like head with large eyes. It's interesting to note that Cyndaquil's eyes are always closed when he faces the camera directly. He has six red spots on his back, Cyndaquil has something of a nerd-like personality. He seems to be a fairly intelligent Pokémon and acts as the brains of the group. He gets fed up with the stupid ideas of other Pokémon, most notably Tepig. Like his friends, they all care deeply about each other and mourned with Bulbasaur over Tepig's tragic death and angrily blamed Emboar for it happening Cyndaquil claims to have "trolling instincts" in "Ditto Disaster" as he repeatedly laughs at Tepig for his belief in Santa Claus and his other stupid antics.

Tepig is a pig-like Pokemon with the upper half of his torso, lower half of his head, and his legs being orange with the rest of his body being black. He has a yellow spot leading to his nose in between his eyes and two black ears Tepig is seen as a wannabe daredevil in the group. He's notably stubborn and quick to let his emotions take over in the right situations. He's normally the one to remain fearless until he's met with danger. His cowardness is a near-equivalent to Bulbasaur, only Tepig doesn't think as rationally as him. Tepig does his best to stay confident and fearless in front of his friends if it means making himself look better. He explains himself as confident and independent when in actuality, he's notably weak.

Bulbasaur has a notably cowardly and cautious personality and takes the role as the voice of reason in Starters. For example, during "Lavender Town", Bulbasaur tries to convince Tepig and Cyndaquil to stay in the house instead of sneaking out by explaining the child abduction situation, of which Tepig ignores, leaving Bulbasaur and Cyndaquil to follow him. Bulbasaur normally tries to stay out of any trouble that he or the rest of the characters in Starters normally get in to. Bulbasaur is a small-sized Pokémon with light blue skin with dark blue spots on his forehead. He has a large green bulb, made of leaves,it can not light up,its just leaves on his back that is roughly the size of his torso. He has four legs that are equivalent to each other. (Front legs are equivalent to each other and back are equivalent to each other.) But stands upright on his back legs.
