Always had him in my team and I remember seeing him in the anime, so I'll always have a sweet spot for him.

My first starter in Pokemon Blue <3

I win this thread until another user posts himself with a t-shirt of his favorite Pokemon.

I said it.

I... uh... have a giant 2-3 foot tall Pikachu doll.

Well, it was my brothers, really. I swear he has hundreds of those little figures, too. HUNDREDS.

He who pursues two rabbits gets two rabbits.
Absol: SUCKER PUNCH, MOTHERFUCKER.

Funny story. I've never caught an Absol without the game crashing shortly after.
How fitting, considering it is "the Disaster Pokemon." :eek:

Froslass: Snow Cloak is clutch.

Glaceon: Ice types rule. Eeveelutions rule. Having the strongest Blizzard in the game doesn't hurt anything, either.

Mismagius: Probably my favorite Ghost. Also one of the few pure special attackers that can take on Blissey in a 1-on-1.

Gallade: One classy motherfucker.

Milotic: Not a huge fan of its design (it's more like a feminine Gyarados than anything, really), but ever since I caught its pre-evolution on my very first attempt (that's like a 1/1000 chance or worse), I've always used it as my dedicated water type.

Torterra: Speaks for itself.

Bidoof: lolz

I'm not really familiar with all of the pokemon, but Piplup is sooo adorable. I also think Psyduck is pretty awesome. Don't have any "whys" to give beyond "cute!" though.

01: Lugia - FRIGHTENING MIND MONSTER!
02: Piplup/Prinplup/Empoleon REGAL WATER BIRD!
03: Dratini/Dragonair/Dragonite MYSTICAL DRAGON!
04: Turtwig/Grotle/Torterra - WORLD TURTLE!
05: Mareep/Flaaffy/Ampharos ENDEARING SHEEP BEACON!
06: Snorunt/Froslass COOL YOKAI!

If I had to pick 1? Empoleon. Regal. Responsible. Honorable. He's the aristocrat of Pokemon.

...Until I get a Psychic/Water type that pleases me.

Looking at some of the new pokemon I feel like the original Red/Blue ones are just so much better. The newer ones look...well, too new. Most of the OG pokemon remind me of normal animals somewhat, but some of these new pokemon just look like they came from space. Though Mew did come from space...ah well.

On another note I was surprised that a friend of mine never played pokemon despite growing up in the middle of the pokemon frenzy of the 90's.

1. Poison/Fighting, two of my favorite types.
2. Frogs are cool.
3. Look at him. He doesn't give a shit about anything.

Stock choice but I love Pikachu. Small rodents are cute.

Scyther is awesome too. The first real badass Pokémon I remember when I was watching the show as a kid.

I remember people laughing at me back then in the R/B days when I first chose to train a Magikarp. Then I proceeded to wipe the floor with their sorry asses with this mofo.

My first hilarious battle against a friend also involved this guy. My friend was like "yay let's do a Water Pokémon battle. Little did he know. He went "OMGWTF" as his Blastoise got fucking THUNDER'd.
 
Well that was a pretty pointless bump.

But that's okay because it allows me to come here and proclaim that Aggron is BOSS

And one more Charmander pic, just because:

your addition of awesome pics, and the addition of those that will inevitably follow, further prove that nothing i do is pointless. let this be a lesson...

Just the fact that he irritates a lot of people makes me like him more.

This guy's my favorite to use in battles and such. Sucker Punch + Payback + Spikes + Destiny Bond is pretty much a recipe top knock someone off their gameplan for a bit.
 
Has to be Charizard for me. I got Charmander as my first starter on Pokemon Red and when it eventually evolved into Charizard it was my favourite.
