Pokemon! Who's your favorite?

[CallmeMyth]

First off, I have to say that there is no Pokemon that I hate, and there's also a lot of great Pokemon out there, but I'm going to list my top five.


5. Ninetales


Ninetales' evolutionary line was my favorite from Gen 1, so it deserves a spot on my top five.


4. Umbreon


Eevee was the first Pokemon I ever played with, and Umbreon is my favorite evolution of it. It's also the first evolved form I ever evolved it into. That makes it pretty high on my list.


3. Sceptile


This was a hard choice for me, because out of all the generation starters, gen 3 is my favorite. I love all the gen 3 starters equally, but Sceptile stands out above the rest because I love all three of its evolutionary designs.


2. Mewtwo


Mewtwo deserves a high spot on this list because almost any Pokemon fan will agree that the Mewtwo strikes back movie was one of the greatest Pokemon movies of all time, with a darker theme than most Pokemon movies after it. Mewtwo is just so cool on top of that, so he deserves to be placed in at #2.


1. Lucario


Based on my current avatar, it's not hard to guess that Lucario is my favorite Pokemon. While gen 4 isn't the first Pokemon game I ever played, Pokemon Diamond and Pearl were the first two handheld games I ever owned when I was a tween. My favorite Pokemon from that gen was Lucario and it's pre-evolution, Riolu. Something stood out about it to me, maybe just how awesome it was that it could control aura/spiritual energy. Not to mention, I consider the Lucario and the Mystery of Mew movie to be the best Pokemon movie of all time IMO.

 

[Fletchawk]

Considering that the first pokemon game I've played was Silver, it's not surprising that I'm a Johto lover. Almost all of my favorites are of the second generation.


5. Houndour (Not Houndoom though)


When I first saw this pokemon, I knew I had to have it. It was hard to explain at the time since I was 9. But I have grown wiser in my years and come to terms that it was the first ever pokemon that I thought was adorable.


4. Totodile/Croconaw/Feraligatr


I initially picked Totodile because he looked cooler than the two starters, but little did I know at the time but that Totodile would turn into such a mega badass and would because the second strongest pokemon I would and probably will ever own. Being the first pokemon that single handedly the Elite Four helped burn this into my memory also.


3. Scizor


While it was the 3rd pokemon I had ever leveled to 100, it was neither it's power or it's looks that made this pokemon number 3 on my list. As a farewell present from a friend, that had moved away when I was young, she traded to me a lvl 16 Scyther for a Suicune. She had accidentally KO'd the one on her file and I wasn't using mine. (I already had a badass water pokemon) I was shocked when I found out she had put Metal Coat on it and it evolved. So to this day, whenever I see a Scizor it reminds of a time long ago and of a friendship bound together by the love of pokemon.


2. Tyranitar


What is there not to love about this giant behemoth. Sure, it's powerful and I love that about Tyranitar. But I hadn't realized just how powerful until used this pokemon in a seemingly lost cause of battle. My friend challenged me to a lvl 100 pokemon battle, and I had only 5 pokemon of that level. So I picked my lvl 86 Tyranitar to fill the spot. Unknown to me, my friend had gone to an event and had acquired a Mew.(I despise Mew still.) The battle was going my way since I had KO'd his Typhlosion with my badass Feraligatr and then he sent out this tiny pink mouse looking thing. Well that tiny pink mouse preceded to destroy my entire team, I'm talking 1-hit KO status, until the only pokemon I had left was the lvl 86 Tyranitar. I had pretty much given up at that point, what could lvl 86 do against a level 100 pink mouse of death? I had the Tyranitar use Crunch and waited for my friend to start celebrating his victory. But then the miracle happened. There stood the Tyranitar with 2/3 of it's health left and the Mew was KO'd. My friend and I were shocked. After we recovered, this Tyranitar then preceded to utterly annilate most of my friend's pokemon. It ended with my loss, but I didn't care. I had fallen in love with Tyranitar and I have always had one in my team since.


1. Staryu


Now this is truely a tale of love at first sight. Any word I use would be a discredit to the affection I have for this pokemon. I will try, to just give you an inkling of how much I love this pokemon. Let's say I acquired a one-of-a-kind legit shiny legendary pokemon, (yes, I know they don't exist.) I would trade it in a heartbeat for a Staryu with the lowest stats possible. Yes, I really would and even then, that is a COLOSSAL understatement of how much I love Staryu.

 

[venonats]

Oooo, pokemon! I love pretty much any bug type pokemon but my all time favorite has to be either venonat (hence the username x3) or volcarona!

 

[Ganryu]

5) Banette- Not sure why, raised on in Saphire, and just loved it since.


4) Mewtwo - Nostalgia; and smash bros. mostly smash bros.


3) Shedninja- It's either a flop or success, but I like the concept.


2) Typhlosion- First pokemon I ever got to lvl 100


1) Flygon- this thing just looks awesome

 

[Fangs9090]

1. Lucario. Lucario will always be my top favorite.


2. Glaceon. And every other Eeveelution but that would take up the whole list. Glaceon's my favorite of them though.


3. Zoroark. Probably the same reason everyone else likes it.


4. Dragonair. So elegant.


5. Gardevoir. Also elegant.


Favorite legendary is pretty much tied between Raquaza, Giratina, and Latios.


Favorite spin-off has to be Mystery Dungeon. Always wanted to be a Pokémon and that game makes it happen.


Favorite type is either fighting or ice. I can't decide between those two.

 

[J0ker]

 

[P U R I T Y]

It's so hard for me to choose, everything up until fifthish gen is considered amazing in my opinion, love'm. Could give you a list of heavily disliked afterwards.


Flygon, Espeon/Sylveon, Gardevior, Absol, Salamence, Lapras, Ninetails/Arcanine, Mismagius, Kingdra, Starmie... it goes on... c:

 

[RainbowToRosie]

Well... If I had to make a top five list,


1. Every Eevee ever! (They're so adorable!)


2. Growlithe (Puppy )


3. Arcanine (Doggy )


4. Bulbasaur (First Pokemon ever. x3)


5. Mew (So cute x3)

 

[lelouch]

(every) eevee all the way though umbreon ()

 

[Face Nemesis]

5. Tie between Tyranitar and Umbreon. I love Dark Type Pokemon and Johto Pokemon, and these are some of the best of those two categories.


4. Garchomp. While I'm admittedly not a big fan of a lot of the Sinnoh Pokemon (They're not bad, but many of them don't stand out to me), I absolutely love Garchomp. It's fast, powerful, and looks really cool.


3. Greninja. It's a ninja frog, what's not to like? It's also really tough, looks cool, and learns a lot of great moves. My Greninja in Y Version was among the first Pokemon I've ever gotten to level 100, and it got me through all sorts of trouble.


2. Houndoom. Fire and Dark are my two favorite types. Add in a really cool design, and you've got one of my favorite Pokemon of all time. I don't use it often since it can be kind of tough to get early on in the games, but it's easily one of my favorite Pokemon of all time.


1. Feraligatr, although he's tied with his pre-evolved forms as well. From what I remember, Totodile was the very first Pokemon I ever chose, and it's still the one I almost always choose when given the chance. Its design is awesome, it's great for tanking damage, and its overall a really cool Pokemon. This one's always going to be my favorite!


Honorable mentions go to Grovyle, Gardevoir, and Blaziken. As for the other questions...


Favorite type: Fire


Favorite Region: Johto


Favorite Game: Pokemon Silver (GBC)


Favorite Team: I honestly love them all. I don't think I could choose one specific team, all have their own fun aspects.


Favorite spin-off game: Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness (still need to play Sky, and Super Mystery Dungeon for that matter)


Favorite legendary: Rayquaza

 

[Primrose]

Screams Pokemon has always been one of my favourite games. ;u; I especially love the PMD series they did. (Though, Gates was really disappointing.) I can't wait to play Super Mystery Dungeon, and I really wish they'd bring out a remake of Diamond and Pearl soon. Diamond was my first actual pokemon, but Soul Silver is my favourite Pokemon.


1. Jolteon. Cute little ball of fuzzy yellow fluff, and also a very good Pokemon to have in your team (well for me anyway.). Best Eeveelution.


2. Gengar. Another ball of spooky fuzzy purple fluff. Their mega-evo is pretty rad too.


3. Typholosion. They were my starter in Soul Silver, and I still have my Typholosion from it!


4. Celebi. Onion Fairy.


5. Glaceon. Another cuddly fluff.


A few other favourites are Lugia, Bulbasaur, Mega Houndoom, Altaria, Raichu, Goodra, Dragonite and Zweilous.


Favourite Type: I can't pick between Ice, Ghost and Dragon.


Favourite Characters: Either Grimsley or Lance.

 

[Aur0ra]

pikachuuuu

 

[Divine Intervention]

This is gonna be torture because I have too many that I love but I'll try my best.


Please note that this isn't in order in the slightest.


5. Vaporeon- It's a cute, chubby little water baby. Add the fact that it's one of my favorite types and it's a recipe for love.


4. Cleffa/Clefairy/Clefable- I've always loved how cute this line was. Add Magic Guard and a Fairy typing and you have me almost always using them in battle.


3. Gallade, Lucario, Zoroark, Eelektross- Most of these are common favorites among the masses, but I love them nonetheless. Gallade and Lucario's megas are great and Zoroark is the main reason as to why one of my OCs exists. I'm still in love with the idea of an electric eel with Levitate.


2. Altaria, Fletchling/Fletchinder/Talonflame- The only explanation I have for this is: gotta love the birb.


1. Gulpin/Swalot, Pawniard/Bisharp- It's so hard to choose between these two lines since I have so much love for the both of them. One's squishy and deadly if used correctly and the other has had my heart ever since I first laid eyes on them.


Favorite type: Electric


Favorite Region: Sinnoh/Unova


Favorite Game: Platinum/White


Favorite Team: Galactic


Favorite spin-off game: EoS and Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia


Favorite legendary: The only one popping up in my head is Registeel so let's go with that.

 

[eloquinox]

My top 5 are


1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

 

[WinterHalcyon]

Absol. Ever since I played Emerald as a kid I was so entranced by they mystery surrounding this pokemon not to mention it doesn't evolve so it stays cute forever just just gets stronger!

 

[KitlenLove]

Slowpoke >~<


(CuzEveryoneCallsMeOne ;>)

 

[Castiel King]

Sharpedo will always and forever be my favorite!!!


His Mega is pretty rad too! I dig the goatee they gave him

 

[Negative Zone]

My eternal shame is that I consider myself a fan of Pokemon yet I haven't actually beaten any of the main games since Blue version... and even then I probably only beat it because I reduced my save file to a tattered heap of glitches thanks to the coast of Cinnabar. I was a very curious child and the cracks in the code of the game endlessly fascinated me. I even printed off fanfic about Missingno.


I don't know what it is, if it's some kind of weird gaming curse or what. Ever since I got my hands on Gold years and years ago I've always, always been sidetracked a short portion into a Pokemon game and then I never pick it up again. In my more ambitious moments I dream of doing a whole series playthrough using all the remakes, but I'm missing a fair portion of the series and the 'Nintendo tax' makes picking up most of the games an expensive prospect. (Seriously, it's kind of miraculous how most Nintendo games rarely drop in price, not even in the second hand market.) One of these days I'll break the curse, maybe sooner rather than later since I'm making progress on my gaming backlog now.


With that in mind, it's pretty difficult for me to do a top five. Back in the day my fave was Snorlax. Now it's Slowpoke. That probably says something about me. Honorable mention goes to Espurr because I find that death stare rather adorable.


My favorite spinoff is probably Pokemon Snap. I never actually owned it but I rented it back when Blockbuster Video had those photo printing kiosks in the stores. It was short enough that I actually completed it in the span of one rental and spent the rest of my time with the game getting the best pictures possible because I was so excited about printing them off. I'm bummed they haven't brought back the concept yet. Other than that theoretically I should be fond of Mystery Dungeon because I have a huge weakness to roguelikes and roguelites but I haven't actually played any of them yet. Oops.

 

[TheBusDriver]

Duh, the only Pokemon that matters. That's right I'm talking about the OG Water type, the one to put all turtles of any fandom to shame. The reason I got into and back into Pokemon. THE POWER TORRENT CANNON MLG 360 NO HYDRO-PUMP SMOKE BERRIES EVERYDAY MONSOON BEAST...BLASTOISE

Badassery at its finest.

 

[eclipsehowls]

I would save the Charmander and Chimchar evolotions are my favorite though Blaziken is also awesome in my book.


Among the three legendary birds I'd say Articuno. I had one on my team for Pokemon Stadium.


The Alakazam line is awesome though I think it sucks how in the game, Abra only has teleport.


I like Gyrados but Magikarp is probably the stupidest and weakest pokemon out there in my opinion. A close second would probably be Feebas.


Regions...probably Kanto, Hoenn and Unova.


Bird Pokemon: Pidgey line will always be my favorite followed by the Pidove line.


As far as the original series of Pokemon...I think I like the fifth season and the first season the best out of Pokemon so far.


The first pokemon movie was great and seeing Mew and Mewtwo for the first time.


I do wish that Ash's pokemon would evolve more often. I think it is silly how he has all these pokemon and hardly any have evolved. Also he hasn't paid Misty back for her bike yet.


Favorite character...Brock hands down. I loved him in all the seasons he was in and it would be nice to see him return as a Pokemon Doctor or see one of his siblings take their first pokemon journey.

 

[M.P]

Scrafty and Kadabra and totally tied for my all time favorite Pokemon.


And my 2nd favorite is Abra. xD


And then I really love Nidoking, Garbador, Dragonite, Noibat, Fennekin, Arcanine, and Mew and Mewtwo.


I love so many pokemon. Idk man. lol.

 

[Aquarius]

1. Raichu


2. Sylveon


3. (Mega) Absol (I like the regular form too but not as much)


I don't know beyond that
