lotad is legit impossible to catch ive tried so many times it always breaks out before first shake
mudkip is also the only starter that starts at level 15 and choosing mudkip can make you falll through the ground after battles sometimes ive also had the half step and encounter issue as well torchic is the only starter that is really usable without falling through the map that wont get one shot by team magma though so if your gunna pick one thats not mudkip then pick torchic another thing when pokemon learn new moves you cant change them out or forget old moves to replace them
