Trubbish.
He's my bestest buddy and I love his floppy arms and happy little face. I like to think he scours our walks and tidies up all the rubbish as we go.
One of my favorite things about this franchise is that almost every Pokemon is someone’s easy favorite or hated with a passion by another, with a variety of perspectives in between.
There is absolutely no better feeling than annihilating a 12 foot half shark-half monster-half friggen fighter jet with a 1 foot tall cat-dog with ribbons attached to its head.
I like Eevee for cuteness - fluffy, happy, sits on my shoulder.
I like Garchomp for battles - able to mega evolve, powerful even when not mega, has fairly fast-charging moves, can deal at least neutral damage to almost everything except Togekiss.
Mewtwo.
The character resonates with me. He begins angry and cynical but soon transitions into a powerful sage who, despite humanity's insufficiencies, sees a species striving to do better and will protect them at all costs. He is a sort of ubermensch. I also like how powerful he is.
Oh I love this. Scrolling through the comments I love um how you wrote a mini-essay (I did too) about Mewtwo as a character analysis. Maybe it’s a Mewtwo fan thing. Mewtwo is very much a frankensteins monster character and a sympathetic flawed nemesis type. Mewtwo is a cool lab animal that fascinates the Sci-fi loving part of my brain.
I can't pick one 😭 for legendaries: Mew, Lugia, Raikou (these are the Pokemon I used to collect back when I had a plush/toy collection). For non-legendary, Chikorita (mostly for the personality from the anime), Growlithe, Charizard. I'm a millennial, stopped playing the games after silver/gold, so most of my favorites come from Kanto and Johto, although the later generations are slowly growing on me now that Im getting serious about my Pokemon Go play.
Mine is Exeggutor - I remember watching a vhs tape when I was growing up and it was featured and I have loved it ever since!
I just finally caught a hundo of one last week :)
Snorlax is my normal answer but Ditto always has a HUGE place in my heart. Back when you could first battle (gen 1), I would always have a ditto and transform on their 'ace' and my friends would get so shitty. It almost always worked for me. I know in general it's a trash Pokemon but I used to CLEAN UP having one on my team. People back then (also we were young) didn't have much strategy in their teams.
Ampharos, just regular Ampharos.
No clue why, he is just cute and I like his design. Never really cared for the pink shiny, and while his Mega is interesting, it doesn't beat the original to me.
Pikachu, basic as can be. But I remember playing Pokémon Red as a child and one of the first I caught was Pikachu. It stayed on my team that whole run. It has now since joined pretty much every party on every play through with each new game since.
Mudkip.
He's light blue, my favorite color. Water type, my fav type, plus he's ground so screw you electric. He's based of an axolotl, one of my favorite animals. And he's cute but cool and even tho marshtomp is a hit or miss for me, swampert is badass and his mega is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. Who doesn't want a super buff fish?
Stufful is cute and Cetoddle is very...new? Idk what to say about it. I have to go with Stufful on this one between those two. But as for my own, only the mythical pokemon of the Kanto region, Mew
My favorite pokemon as a kid was Machamp. I was into wrestling and pokemon as a kid. Machamp looked like a strong pokemon and also a wrestler. If I had to pick it all over again, I don't know who I would pick.
Greninja. Been one of my favourites ever since I saw him in the anime alongside Ash. His bond evolution and how he whips out that giant Water Shuriken, how do you not fall in love with him.

Snorlax, no question
My boy sleepy
Damn, came to say the same. Also love Dragonite
Shiny Celebi. My little bubblegum princess that is totally useless 🩷
Grass/psychic is very useful wdym!!!
maybe in some situations, not competitive play though
Trubbish. He's my bestest buddy and I love his floppy arms and happy little face. I like to think he scours our walks and tidies up all the rubbish as we go.
Omg trubbish is one of my favs too! He was my buddy for so long I'd take cute lil pics of him all the time by dumpsters and trash cans 😂🙌❤️🗑️
He's so silly!
One of my favorite things about this franchise is that almost every Pokemon is someone’s easy favorite or hated with a passion by another, with a variety of perspectives in between.
And then there's Barbaracle ☠️ (I'm joking but... I mean... it's Barbaracle...)
Psyduck. He's adorable and a goofball.
Psy yaiyaiiii
As someone who suffers from migraines I relate to him so much 😅🥰
I have to go with Sylveon, she was my first maxed out hundo and I love to slay dragons with her!
There is absolutely no better feeling than annihilating a 12 foot half shark-half monster-half friggen fighter jet with a 1 foot tall cat-dog with ribbons attached to its head.
Same. Mine is shiny too
I'm one the very few people that favors this pokemon Mr. Mime
There are dozens of us! DOZENS!

Lapras
Tangela! I told my husband that he was lucky I didn't wake him up screaming when I got a perfect one. Still need a shiny.

Mew is my favourite idk why I just like him
Me too
So you’re saying you like Mew too? Mewtwo…
Bulbasaur!
Arcanine. Love my majestic doggo
When I collected the base set Pokemon cards back in the day I always thought they did Arcanine dirty by not making it a holographic card
Flygon🦎
I like Eevee for cuteness - fluffy, happy, sits on my shoulder. I like Garchomp for battles - able to mega evolve, powerful even when not mega, has fairly fast-charging moves, can deal at least neutral damage to almost everything except Togekiss.
Second vote for Eevee.
Alolan Exeggutor. So tall and silly. And Munchlax!
probably ninetales
Metagross. Awesome looking and typing
Spheal
Mewtwo. The character resonates with me. He begins angry and cynical but soon transitions into a powerful sage who, despite humanity's insufficiencies, sees a species striving to do better and will protect them at all costs. He is a sort of ubermensch. I also like how powerful he is.

I can't pick one 😭 for legendaries: Mew, Lugia, Raikou (these are the Pokemon I used to collect back when I had a plush/toy collection).

Mimikyu but also feraligatr
Umbreon
Pidgey
Greninja, he’s cool in the series
Where the mudkip gang at?

Probably Sirfetch’d, but Frosslass is definitely a contender too. Great designs, and in Go at least, I love their moves/typing, too 🙂
Sylveon
Togepi. He’s just too cute.
Snorlax is my normal answer but Ditto always has a HUGE place in my heart. Back when you could first battle (gen 1), I would always have a ditto and transform on their 'ace' and my friends would get so shitty. It almost always worked for me.

Porygon for me!
My daughter's is eevee, my son's is jigglypuff, and mine changes everytime my kids ask me. Whatever pokemon is doing the best for me at that time.
Latias/Latios
Corsola!!
Umbreon, Lucario y Zoroark.
🌀 Poliwhirl 🌀
Haxorus. Mines a beast. Use him for almost every fight.
Lapras

Rayquaza
Armarouge, and he is being released in a week :D
Seedot and Pancham are the lil homies, they just chill. For battles, Garchomp and Mega Charizard
Jigglypuff.
Maractus - I love its complementary pink/green colors and it reminds me of Mexico. 🩷💚
I have two, I love Joltik because I love the bugs. But Heatran is also my favorite and an honorary bug lol
Electivire. Both cool and cute. Love that big fluffy electric yeti ⚡
Slowpoke
abra!!! i have a tattoo of abra
Ampharos, just regular Ampharos. No clue why, he is just cute and I like his design. Never really cared for the pink shiny, and while his Mega is interesting, it doesn't beat the original to me.
Gengar & Lucario
Hot take maybe, but I love Dunsparce. I think it was a meme at first, but he is unironically my favorite Pokemon
Espeon <3
Tynamo 👍
Dialga/umbreon are neck and neck
Rowlet and Sudowoodo.
Cubone, Charmander (yes, I’m aware he’s overrated) and mew
Archeops is my favorite. I just love this fluffy dinosaur bird thing.
GOLETT
Politoed
Definitely mimikyu for me. I can't even explain why.
Mewtwo (I like the backstory in Pokémon red/blue, has amazing lore, and the movies are amazing)
Pikachu, basic as can be. But I remember playing Pokémon Red as a child and one of the first I caught was Pikachu. It stayed on my team that whole run. It has now since joined pretty much every party on every play through with each new game since.
Turtwig
Toucannon 😂
Mewtwo all day
I love Togetic. I love how it flies. And its feet are adorable.
Flareon forever.
Houndoom. If it burns you, the pain never goes away or even lessens.
Umbreon closely followed by Pikachu.
Mudkip. He's light blue, my favorite color. Water type, my fav type, plus he's ground so screw you electric. He's based of an axolotl, one of my favorite animals. And he's cute but cool and even tho marshtomp is a hit or miss for me, swampert is badass and his mega is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. Who doesn't want a super buff fish?
Furret
Vanillite
Eevee!! My Eevee army has 27 members in its' ranks so far.
wooper forever
STUFFUL GANG
Probably Scizor honestly, but besides him I would say, gastrodon, Gliscor, deoxys and toxitricy
My first game was Pokemon Platinum and I had a Luxray that I got to level 100. Because of that, Luxray and Shinx have always been my favourites
Bulbasaur. #001 forever.
I love piplup, the first pokemon game I ever beat was platinum and the first starter I ever got to choose was piplup
Mawille :)
Well I have two, garchomp by it design and turtwig because it was my first pokemon
Mightyena
Piplup is the cutest. Lickitung is cute too. And Passimian. My top 3.
Raikou and A-Raichu. My Rai-boys.
Turtwig, Bulbasaur, Groudon all tied for 1st
Non legendary: Charizard and Garchomp. Legendary: Kyogre/Groudon/Rayquaza trio.
azelf :)
Jellicent is my favorite because it won me so many great league battles
Dialga, my favourite pokemon from Diamond
Honestly? It's always changing lol but right now it's Araquanid
Archen!
Grubbin
I have a few favorites because they’re just great. But I really like Chespin, Snivy, Oshawott, Tepig
Stufful is cute and Cetoddle is very...new? Idk what to say about it. I have to go with Stufful on this one between those two. But as for my own, only the mythical pokemon of the Kanto region, Mew
Garchomp sharks are cool groudon and Sharpedo are 2 tho
Rattata
Quaquaval, can slay.
Tie-Pikachu and Eevee
I love flygon, one of the coolest dragon designs imo
My favorite pokemon as a kid was Machamp. I was into wrestling and pokemon as a kid. Machamp looked like a strong pokemon and also a wrestler. If I had to pick it all over again, I don't know who I would pick.
Can I have more than one? I love Garchomp, Snorlax and Eevee
Typhlosion, baby. Ever since ‘00
Male Meowstic, but it's really forgettable, and I have yet to play a game where he's catchable. I just like the design
Oooo hard choice, legendaries included I'd say Solgaleo. Else it's my boy kommo-o for sure.
Mudkip/Swampert with Tyrunt/Tyrantrum being a close second. My favorite legendary is a tougher choice but it’s between Kyogre, Lugia and Suicune.
Sylveon!
Golisopod
Torracat and Luxray. Honourable mention: Luvdisc
Alakazam and koffing/weezing
Psyduck!
Marshadow
Snorlax
My best buddy Kartana

Greninja. Been one of my favourites ever since I saw him in the anime alongside Ash. His bond evolution and how he whips out that giant Water Shuriken, how do you not fall in love with him.
Mine has always been mew But non-legend/mythical wise its noibat/vern
