What’s your favorite Pokémon and why?

28 comments

1. Vaporeon.

2. Haunter. I didn’t have the cable so I never got a Gengar. Loved dream eater and also taught him psychic for major damage.

3. Charizard – nostalgia + dragon.

4. Arcanine.

   Giant fire puppy that you can ride?! Dude as an 6 year old when the anime hit I was determined I’d get one.

5. Sableye. Dark/ghost type gives a lot of advantages and he just looks cool.

6. Dragonite. Seems like he’d be the perfect companion pokemon, especially since I could fly on him.

7. Eevee, looks most fox like imo.

8. Koffing- as a kid he was the fart Pokémon in my eyes.

9. Ralts you get it so early and it hard carries in gen 3.

10. Aggron.

    Metal Trex? What’s not to like?

11. Gengar, Hypno, and Clefable.

12. Gyarados. I’ve never played so googled a random one. How did I do?

13. Deino – the hair

14. Slowbro. Looks stupid as hell while wrecking fucking anus in Unite.

15. Decidueye. Who doesn’t like a bird ninja

16. Crobat!

    It took a Pokémon line everyone hated in Gen I, made it’s evolution in Gen II friendship based so it can evolve quickly to final stage of you start early, it looks freaking cool, it’s tied (with Aerodactyl) for second fastest Flying type, edged out only by Ninjask, and can hit fairly hard. The addition of Fairy type, as well as expanding the moves available to Crobat just makes them more viable. My preferred moveset for playthrough: Brave Bird/Acrobatics, Roost, Confuse Ray, Crunch/Cross Poison. Or you can run a Tailwind/U-Turn combo to get away from a bad type matchup. I only wish they had a better ability.

    I would also like Tentacool to receive the same treatment.

17. Lopunny she thicc af

18. Garchomp

    Amazing design – I mean it’s a land shark dragon, you can’t get any cooler creature combination than that!

    It’s got an awesome type combo, great stats, great movepool, offensive presence. It’s always performed well in the meta no matter what generation. He pretty much fits the bill for what a standard great pokémon is.

19. I like Pikachu because it’s adorable. I know it’s basic. I don’t care.

    Runner ups are Squirtle because it was my first Pokémon, and Mew because it’s insanely useful and ridiculously cute. Ninetails is one of the coolest ones, but it’s pretty useless in battle. And who doesn’t love a good Charizard?

20. Golduck. I like ducks.

21. Raquaza because he’s cool

22. Pikachu. Because I used to watch pokemon when I was 3 and that’s the only one I can remember.

23. Deoxys.

    Because he’s a shapeshifting BAMF and no one else seems to remember him. 🙁

24. Absol. Thrives on its own, constantly blamed for things that aren’t its fault. I relate.

25. Machoke. I want all the muscles

26. Gardivor you know why

27. Ekans all day ere day

28. Alakazam!! One of (if not #1) the smartest Pokémon.
