Personally, mine is joint first between Sandshrew (the cutest), Espurr (most relatable), and Gastrodon.

After those, in no particular order, I like Turtwig (best starter, fight me), the Roggenrola line (little rock guys), the Litwick line (candles and lamps with nefarious intentions), and Metagross (cool robot thing).

Kyogre is the best legendary in my opinion

    Scizor! It’s annoying have a trade mon as your favorite. A lot of the games don’t give you a metal coat until late game too. What can you do

      Scizor is a really interesting pokemon, and a much needed evolution to Scyther (I think they have similar stats but the better typing with Bug/Steel makes it more viable)

      Steelix is also another awesome trade mon, it’s pretty much just a better version of Onix in every way. In later gens it also has a really cool mega!

    Always been an Arbok fan. Sure, Gen 1 he dies to Psychic really easy, but especially as we get into Gen 3/4 and you get stuff like Fire/Ice/Thunder Fang TMs as well as decent Dark moves to teach it, it becomes a nasty piece of work with some support. Plus, it gets Intimidate and I love Intimidate as an ability.

    Piplup for its cuteness. I also like its evolutions.

    I also really love Bulbasaur and its evolution line. That was my starter back on Blue on the Gameboy. Venusaur with Leech Seed then whipped everything into submission pretty much. Tanked like a mofo!

    In Red/Blue I liked Abra>Kadabra>Alakazam and Gengar.

    As for cuteness, I can’t say no to Jigglypuff.
