I'd suggest picking the one that can take down the weakness of your first starter: Charmander if you picked Froakie, Squirtle if you picked Chespin and Bulbasaur if you picked Fennekin. But again, there are plenty of opportunities to fill your party with all three types early on.

The best starter in johto is typhlosion, not only in johto but might be the best starter ever. Gen 7 introduced a move burn up which deals immense damage and causes the user to lose its fire typing. Only two pokemon learn it, moltres and typhlosion.

For an easy and very smooth run on Red/Blue : Bulbasaur as a starter : Venusaur, Nidoking, Kadabra, Jolteon, Snorlax, Starmie. This is probably the best team you can make in Gen 1 without using legendaries, and trading. Every HM is included except Fly because I feel It's not worth it and it's not necessary.

['Oshawott is the most balanced choice of all three, having about equal levels of defense and attack.', 'Tepig is the more attack based starter and is best suited for an aggressive playing style.', 'Snivy has great defensive abilities which means it fits well for people who like to fight long and defensive battles.']

So if you want the most powerful starter Pokémon in Red and Blue, Squirtle is the way to go. Squirtle can wreck the most stuff.

Technically Chikorita would probably be the most optimal starter, since it gets Razor Leaf at level 8 whereas most Grass types who can learn it won't do so until you're almost at the Elite Four.
