Start with Mewtwo. ;-)
You're pretty much limited to your starters. In Red & Blue, you can choose
from Charmander (fire), Bulbasaur (grass), or Squirtle (water); your in-game
rival picks after you, and gets the one that beats your type. In Yellow, you
get to choose from Pikachu (electric), or, or, erm...that's it. (Yellow also
doesn't introduce any Pokemon not in Red or Blue, so I wouldn't recommend it
to anyone.)
If you think you'll be trading with anyone, find out which color they have and
get the other one. Note that while neither Red or Blue have a complete set of
all 150 Pokemon, getting a full set isn't a requirement for winning the game.

Yep. The GB version is a more involved game (59 hours on mine and still 2
badges to go...) and standalone, I like it better than the 64 version. But the
two compliment each other very well.
