Bulbasaur. Years ago, I mentioned he looked like a garlic bulb so my kid gave me her plastic toy Bulbasaur and now he sits on the windowsill as the patron saint of my kitchen.

Bulbasaur. Sweet little onion baby is number one in the dex and number one in our hearts.

Haunter, I always liked the floating hands and big smile!

(Serious now: I love Tropius. You'll probably remember him as the banana dinosaur HM slave. Fucking awesome design.)

Snorlax. He's just so relatable.

As a child I trained a Kadabra to level 100 because another kid told me this is when it evolved.

Nope! We did eventually trade back and forth - but those 2 minutes of my newly evolved level 100 Alakazam on my friend's cartridge demanded an insane level of trust between two 10 year olds. That shit was intense!

Laughed so much at this, thanks

Man I've got a lot. PokΓ©mon's got some good character designs, but my top two have to be Victini and Gengar.

Ubreon, shiny is so cool

I'm a simple guy, Charizard.

Are you working at gamefreak by chance?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Excellent taste.

I honestly can't choose. I love too many of them. Some of my favorites are clefable, pikachu, vaporeon, palafin, armarouge, absol, meowscarada/sprigatito, grovyle, corviknight, ampharos, wooloo... just too many!

Psyduck! C'mon, he's a duck with a headache.

Always wanted a pet Wingull since I played Emerald. I need to evolve it if it's actually going to fight though

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Umbreon! I have a tattoo on my forearm, but I got it as a poor and dumb college kid, so I'm getting it reworked in September by an artist that will do it justice!

I always thought golem was super cool, but it wasn't advantageous against the elite four.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Ho-oh. I don't know why but it's been my favorite ever since I first saw it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Totodile. Elementary school me picked him at random when I played HeartGold (still hadn't wrapped my head around the whole touchscreen thing IIRC) and I loved the little guy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Rayquaza. It looks cool, it's powerful and it has a cool role. What's not to love? Plus, it's one of the few PokΓ©mon with a good looking shiny.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It's not strong at all since it's a pretty early route mon, but definitely the buizel line. Grafaiai just barely first place for me, but I absolutely love that as well.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Big fan of Togekiss. I know it's not exactly great, but I had a good run in my local meta running a serene grace Togekiss special sweep. Good times

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Misdreavus!

Snorlax is my spirit PokΓ©mon

Bidoof is the best, sweet little guys. Who only gey dunked on nearly as bad as Magikarp.

[–] cccc 1 points 1 year ago

Sylveon, but I’ve got a soft spot for the Gen 1 starters too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Houndoom! With Bulbasaur as closed 2nd.
