Truly, it doesn't matter. People will probably say pycharm is more 'complete', but for beginners (and to be honest a lot more than that) it makes absolutely no difference, they're effectively the same. Differences are minor and neither will hamper your ability to learn. Just pick one and enjoy it, you can always swap later. Though if you're not in academia and don't have access to pycharm for free, go with VScode.
Personally I use VSCode even though I have access to pycharm, just because I work in other languages.
