I always go for the Water-type starter myself (even in Pearl, where there were next to no fire types and one would really have come in handy ^^; )

The blackface thing with Gen I Jynx was indeed yerg (although I tend to cut Japan a little more slack wrt that kind of thing than I would Western nations - as with lots of anime stylings it's what they learned from early American animation and it just doesn't have the connotations there it does in the West. Also, there's no clear reason as to why Jynx would be modelled on a black woman - the blackface seems to be an unfortunate coincidence there, with the likely origin for her being the Yama Uba), but she was a major player in my Gen I-II lineup - an awesome glass cannon with the potential to be really annoying.
