What is your favorite Pokémon and why? Do you think it's cute? Do you like battling with it? Does it look inspired?
My favorite, obviously, Floatzel. It used to be Buizel, but it had too many rare candies. For some strange reason, I like many of the Pokémon based on weasel-like animals, like ferrets and raccoons. Originally, though, Buizel stood out because it was quite cute, but also cool. As I started training more Floatzels (as they can't stay Buizel forever and still be used easily), I started liking the evolved form more.
However, when it comes to battling, my favorite is Typhlosion. My Typhlosion has high Speed and Special Attack stats, allowing me to effectively use Eruption in a 2v2 battle. I hope the Typhlosion I get in SoulSilver is better than the one I have in Pearl.
I like unown, not because I can battle with it, but because its so... awesome. I mean, it floats and sticks to stuff its like the coolest thing ever, the only down part is it cant battle, and only serves as a side quest for fun... I also like the idea of being able to have it out at all times so I can just reach over and throw it. I actually do have an unown, trained for speed and sp.atk that would be battle-able if it had actual moves, instead of the next best thing, psychic hidden power (its an F!). In game I use them as item storage, I fill up a couple boxes, and store my little used hold items, that way I can get to the bottom of my bag faster. I bet I could like hold a (?) unown and use it like a gun... lol
My favorite Pokémon is Charizard :charizard:
Way back when I got my first Red and Blue cartridges, I saw Charizard on the cover of red and thought he looked pretty cool. He became one of my favorite Pokémon and still is today. I like him because dragons are awesome, I like fire types, he looks cool, and can hold his own in battle.
And here is a random low-quality image of all three of my Charizard plushes (anyone got a Shaymin I can put in the large one's mouth?)

My favorite is Farfetch'd :83:-- definitely an odd choice, I know. But I like it mostly for its design and novelty in using a leek as a weapon. Its personality in the show and often humorous PokéDex entries are also pluses. What it comes down to for me is liking Pokémon with creative, cute, or cool-looking designs, and Farfetch'd fits the bill (pardon the pun). That, and I really have a hard time choosing a favorite anything, so I naturally tend to look for something that is unusual or stands out in a good way. I like to think Farfetch'd is a good "fit" for me.

My favorite pokemon would have to be Swellow. I just really like flying types. Before I would always have spearow in R/B. Then hoothoot in G/S. Then hoothoot again in D/P. I would always have such an unbalanced team with only flying types when I was young. But Swellow is my all time fav. ![]()

So epic. I mean, it's technically a Grass/Ghost/Fire/Ice/Flying?-Psychic type, so yeah. It can have the most types. Ownage. |

Why weavile of course~! =w=
I loved sneasel in pokemon silver but could never catch one. Didn't know wear they were. ;w;
In platinum finding them commonly was a huuuge surprise to me~! :3 I just love there in your face attitude and they have the speed and attack to back it up in battle~! =w=
Sableye, of course. I had one in my original sapphire, and it was the only pokemon I used along with Blaziken, Walrein, and Kyogre. It has no weaknesses, is immune to 3 types, and can defeat Brawly without even trying. Not to mention it's really cool lookin and has a ruby, sapphire, and emerald on it. I love everything about the little guy!
Below Sableye, I like Blaziken, Togekiss, Quagsire, Mawile, Electrike, Tropius, Spinda, Grovyle, and of course, Mudkipz.
I love Charizard. He's the best because he's fire, he's a dragon, and he's... AWSOME!!!!
Second is a tie between Meganium, Arcanine, Rapidash, Ninetails and Clefable. (in no specific order(besides Charizard))
PS. Clefable is EXTREMELY MANLY!
PSS. Yes, I did basically restate the bottom section of my sig.

Rewriting my favorite, too lazy to edit =3
(descending top 7, reasons, etc.)
7. Torterra ![]()
Excellent battler, high Defense, small forest on his back. Can carry other Pokémon on its back, and use as shelter.
6. Magmortar ![]()
My main battler, high Attack and a few Sp. Atk. EV's. Highest-leveled Pokémon I own (at level 89 currently).
5. Latios ![]()
Not as epic as Latias, but he's got some serious Speed. Dang good battler in my book.
4. Charizard :6:
Mainly nostalgic reasons. Since EVERYBODY seems to want me to like him.
3.5. Shellos East Sea ![]()
Stupid smileys won't give me the blue one. Anyways, he looks cute. End of story.
3.14. Porygon ![]()
Computer Pokémon. Detaches head, blocky and NES-style-like.
3. Latias ![]()
...I want to have your babies. <3 <3 <3
2. Furret ![]()
Cute, and great for Contests. Have a ferret in real-life, so I know they smell awesome.
THE OBVIOUS 1. Rotom ![]()
Electric-type, that's always good. Can get Grass-, Water-, Fire-, Ice-, and Flying-type moves through its 5 other formes, based on common appliances.
*Alakazamaster used a revive*
My favorite Pokemon, SHOCKINGLY, is Alakazam! ![]()
In R/B/Y he was a complete monster, since the Psychic type was so broken back then. In G/S he got even better, since he could learn the elemental punches and a bunch of other moves. I love Psychic types, and Alakazam is and always will be my favorite of them! ![]()
Here are my favourite pokemon in order, and reasons.
9. Dusknoir ![]()
I like the mouth in da belly!!! He looks cool and ready to kick some butt.
8. Swampert
Swampert is immune to Electric types, which in every game seem to be my weakness. And it is related to one of my favourite Youtube vids, I HERD U LIEK MUDKIPZ!!!
7. Gengar :94:
I got a plushie of him! He is the first ghost type, and a good battler.
6. Porygons
![]()
I'm always on my computer, and these are computer pokemon! Perfect. And according to the Pokedex, Porygon-Z can travel through dimensions. Doesn't that make him a ghost type?
5.Giratina ![]()
Just plain awesome.
4. Feraligatr ![]()
Feraligatr pwns, and is the only good water type starter. (Except Swampert)
3. The Drifs
![]()
They are adorable. I had a Drifblim in Diamond, and he pwned.
2. Regice ![]()
Regice just looked amazing upon sight. I love the crystals on his back ![]()
1. Rotom ![]()
As if you couldn't guess. Lawn Mower Rotom is the best!!!
As you can see, I'm a big ghost type fan. All the ghost types:
:92: :93: :94:

I just noticed today that I have never posted on this thread. Anyway, my favorite Pokémon would be Lucario. I don't know what it is. I just like it. I have since I've seen it, and Aura Sphere. It's also an excellent battler both in Physical and Special attacks. Being playable in Super Smash Bros. Brawl also adds to its awesome factor. Although, the only thing I have to gripe about it is the shiny color. I don't think yellow does Lucario justice.
Well, Lucario's my most favorite, He's so stylish, cool, and blue. But I have loads more that I could just blab about.
Then there's the new Zoroark I don't know much about. Arceus, love him because he's epic, alongside Giratina, Dialga, and Palkia.
Who can forget about Floatzel now? The slick water weasel, orange in color, and just so neat! The list goes on and on for me, but I really think most on these tough, killer Pokés. :3
My favorete is definetly Dragonite or Lucario, they're strong and agile, and have good defence, plus I love Dragon and Fighting type Pokemon, and yes, I know and you know that Dragonite is a Pseudo-Legendary, but it's one of the only decent, non-legendary Dragon-type out there, besides Garchomp.
Zangoose.
I love it's design. So much that when I was younger, when I created my wolfsona (Wolfaboo!!) I used the ear and eye design on her... still use it to this day.
I also love how it's a normal type as well, since normal types are able to learn such a wide variety of moves, with so many different types.
However, a very close second for me would have to be Pikachu, because of Yellow version. I still have the same exact file from all those years ago, and my darling Pikachu Mango still kicks major butt!
Now my #1 favorite was changed from Lucario to Pichu (If you didn't know that already.). It's design is awesome, relatively easy to draw and sprite, kicks major butt in Melee (You heard right.), and if I knew the best tier for it, I might be able to pwn a ton of people in battles with it.
#1 Definitely Entei. I simply love its HG/SS sprite.
#2 Kabutops. It's also one of the starters in my fangame.
#3 Articuno. Such a beautiful bird.
1 – alternateshadow300Dragonite, obviously. ![]()
In no particular order,
Meganium, Hydreigon, Typhlosion, Charizard, Blaziken, Emboar, Empoleon.
Too many more to list. :B
Oh, and definitely Magikarp. That thing, oh my Arceus you don't even kno. XD Most people totally dis it, but if you bought it from the man in the Pokemon Center and trained it faithfully, you could have a Gyarados before too long. That thing pwns. Pair it with a Rhydon in Double Battles nowadays... Win.
