What Can You Use the Pokemon Starter Wheel For?
This starter Pokemon spinner is surprisingly versatile:
Nuzlocke Challenges
Starting a Nuzlocke run? Let the wheel pick your starter instead of choosing your favorite. Random starters make Nuzlocke runs more challenging and unpredictable.
Blind Playthroughs
Playing a Pokemon game for the first time? Spin the wheel and go in completely blind with whatever starter fate chooses.
Randomizer Runs
Combine with a randomizer ROM for maximum chaos. Let the wheel pick your starter before you even know what the randomizer will throw at you.
Replay Value
Already beaten the game with your favorite starter? Spin the wheel to force yourself to try something new on your next playthrough.
YouTube & Streaming Content
Content creators use the starter wheel to add suspense to new playthroughs. “Spinning for my starter” makes for engaging content.
Settling Debates
Can’t agree on which generation has the best starters? Spin the wheel and let randomness end the argument.
FAQs About the Pokemon Starter Wheel
What is a Pokemon starter wheel?
A Pokemon starter wheel is a random picker that selects a starter Pokemon for you. Our wheel uses a spinning animation to randomly choose from all 27 starter Pokemon across nine generations of Pokemon games.
How random is the starter Pokemon generator?
Each spin is fully randomized. The wheel has no memory of previous results, so every starter has an equal chance each time you spin.

All nine generations: Kanto (Gen 1), Johto (Gen 2), Hoenn (Gen 3), Sinnoh (Gen 4), Unova (Gen 5), Kalos (Gen 6), Alola (Gen 7), Galar (Gen 8), and Paldea (Gen 9).
What do the colors mean?
Each starter is colored by its primary type: green represents Grass-type starters, orange represents Fire-type starters, and blue represents Water-type starters.
What if I get “Own Pick” or “Respin”?
“Own Pick” means you get to choose any starter you want. “Respin” means spin the wheel again for a different result.
