Psychic (Espeon from Colosseum). Best Gen 3 starter ever.

I voted for the Water type because I find that all the water starters are consistently cool over the generations.

…so much this. But don't forget the other starter you got in Colosseum (Umbreon) :)

Yeah, Umbreon was cool, and I personally like Umbreon's appearance better than Espeon, but Espeon carried me through that game, so if I were to pick a single type, it'd be psychic.

On the topic of starter Pokemon on the Gamecube games, what about the Eevee that you get at the beginning of XD? That was the best starter from any game in my opinion, considering you could change it to one of its five forms so quickly.

Yeah, didn't you actually get whichever stone you wanted soon into the storyline?

I don't think I actually used whatever stone I got, instead preferring to keep my Eevee as is.

Yep, and not only the stones, but you got ribbons(?) too, I think, or something like them. Whatever they were, you could evolve your Eevee into Umbreon or Espeon, something you wouldn't be able to do without a friendship evolution in the night or day.

If every type is included, I'd choose PokeManiac type.

Alrighty:
Fire and water are tied in first place. Can grass pull through?

Grass starters are often the (attempted objectively) worst in terms of gym/E4 matchups, stats, level up movepool, etc. so I doubt it.

Anyway, I voted for fire because there are two types of Pokémon games:
1) I don't use the starter anyway, though I choose Water just so the rival gets stuck with the Grass type and I have a decent HM slave
2) I use Torchic or Chimchar due to their excellent type coverage and attack/speed
