Legendary Pokémon (Part One) ~ December 9 - December 16





Welcome to the Favorite Pokémon Tournament here in Pokémon Voting Polls, where we aim to determine who PokéCommunity's favorite Pokémon is! This will be a grand undertaking that will span across a couple of months, where we will start with hundreds of Pokémon, in hopes to rank the most popular Pokémon in the eyes of you- the members of the PokéCommunity!

NOTE: the Rules/FAQ have been updated. If you haven't read them yet, feel free to give them a quick look!


Spoiler:


Now that you know what the tournament is all about, what are you waiting for? Polls will remain open until December 16th, so get voting!

Once again, I appreciate everyone who votes each week- you're what's making this voting tournament successful! Right now, we're on week one of two of voting for legendary Pokemon. A big thanks to the couple of you who commented on the blog, including Wobbu and LusoTrainer, who came up with ideas that I'll craft these weeks of voting around.

Basically, we're going to have two legendaries move on from the next two weeks, but they may not necessarily be from seperate polls. After the two weeks are done, the two Pokemon with the highest percentage of votes will move into the final 20, which we'll then start voting on. Since we don't know how many people will vote each week, percentage seems to work better than straight up votes. So just because a Pokemon has the most votes this week, it may not guarantee its spot in the final!

Oh, and those of you who are following the MOTY voting, the Favorite Pokemon Tournament is eligible from Best Event. I'm just sayin'... ;)

Happy voting!

Glad that I could help out :D I may or may not have forgotten about Victini when I suggested the Pokémon used for the first round...

What I like the most about legendaries is that they are all featured in movies. One of my favorite movies is Destiny Deoxys, which is why I voted for Rayquaza. I don't mind Deoxys, but Rayquaza is better :P I also like Rayquaza because of Emerald. Seeing that cinematic in Sootopolis City was really cool, especially from a GBA game.

My next vote went to Lugia. I mostly voted for it because of XD (which is my favorite spin-off) and its battle theme from HG/SS. I still have my purified XD001 from ~2006 resting in my Black 2.

Last but not least, Xerneas. XYZ have the best legendary battle theme imo and of those three, Xerneas is my favorite. I'm unfamiliar with Yveltal and I've only had Zygarde for a little over a week, so... Anyways, I like Xerneas's two forms and Geomancy is a really useful attack.

I voted for Kyogre just because Hoenn is special to me and that is exactly where that beast comes from. I unfortunately never really got to experience Kyogre until Emerald was released because I bought Ruby, but once I finally caught in in Emerald it quickly became one of my favorite Pokemon of all time!

Lugia, Ho-oh, Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus, and Yveltal. They all have stellar designs and stories. I'd blab about many more legendary Pokemon if this wasn't a poll. :P

I have a fair share of Legendary faves too in case you know, so here they are:

Xerneas, OMG OMG it's such a beauty! I always wanted a very colorful Legendary and those gem-like things on its antlers are so amazing, plus it's a Fairy-type (aka a type that I have fallen in love with lately) not to mention it's BLUE aka my fave color. This is also why I want to play X more than Y.

Other notable mentions:

Reshiram/Zekrom/Kyurem, aka my fave mascot Legends as a trio. No wonder I loved 5th Gen so much!

Meloetta and Shaymin take out my fave cuties of this bunch, I just love them especially in the anime.

When I suggested to split in two, I thought you were going to post both polls at the same time, but I guess taking the percentage works all the same. Glad to help.

As for my votes: Mewtwo, Mew and Lugia.

Can't hate on Mewtwo, he's the original and best. Haha.

Also Ho-oh is the most beautiful and awestriking legendary imo. I care much less for the dragons of Sinnoh than for the bewildering flying legendaries of Johto and Kanto. Hmm, I guess you'll take the legendary trios next week then :3 I have quite some votes there! But for now, Ho-oh.

Celebi gets a vote too, because of all the tiny, magical legendaries, it is the cutest and most interesting imo. A time traveling forest spirit. Now, if any legendary should have its type changed, it should be Celebi. To Fairy! It's like the epitome of what Fairy stands for.

Rayquaza gets a vote because despite it's silly smiley face, it's the coolest dragon.

Reshiram and Zekrom were surprisingly creative and cool pokémon and I can't help but voting for both. Electric/Dragon and Fire/Dragon <3

Then, Xerneas gets a vote too because it's pretty darn beautiful. And Fairy. Which is p kewl.

Of all Pokémon listed on this poll, Mewtwo has to be one of my favorites. It's got three (yes, three) movies revolving around it, which would be Mewtwo Strikes Back, Mewtwo Returns, and Genesect and the Legend Awakened. Isn't that awesome? It also has two mega-evolutions—one of which is exclusive to Pokémon Y version, and the other's available in X. Personally, I really like Mega Mewtwo X; it's got quite an amazing design. Mewtwo Y's design is okay, but not as good as X. Other than Mewtwo, some of my other favorites would have to be Yveltal, Mew, Lugia, Reshiram, and Jirachi. Jirachi is pretty useful when it comes to battling. This Pokémon has access to Serene Grace, and with the combination of a move called "Iron Head," its opponents would rarely be able to land any hits. d:

I voted for quite a few, but my favourite is Rayquaza. Simply a tremendous Pokémon, that I loved using in Fire Red and Soul Silver. My old username was even based on Rayquaza.

Since the poll was split, my choice for this week was easy.

Lugia.

Since Lugia was introduced, I loved it. I wanted to catch one, which was why I got the Silver version. I wanted toys of it, finally getting a plush version from the Pokemon Center in NYC. I drew it all the time, and still to this day use it in my stories.

I don't know why I like Lugia. Maybe because of its origins, based on something from the Shinto religion. Maybe because of its design. Maybe because it was introduced in a movie that has one of my favorite anime characters, Tracey. Whatever it is, I just really like Lugia.

I ended up choosing three: Lugia, Jirachi, and Shaymin. I almost chose Meloetta as well, but ehhh, I'm not feeling it's quite there. Very, very close, though.

Lugia has a pretty sleek design, yet I find it loveable, all the while having this air of majesty.

Jirachi, hmm... I can't quite put my finger on why I like Jirachi so much. Its uniqueness and adorableness? Or maybe because it stars in my favorite Pokémon movie? Its design origin? Je ne sais quoi.

Shaymin, I chose mainly for its Sky Forme. Sure, the Land Forme is adorable, but it's not really my type of cute. And that's par for all the miniature legendaries anyways. Skymin, though, has all that with coolness perfectly mixed in. I like essentially everything about its design, from the expression to the mohawk to the flower scarf.

Meloetta gets an honorable mention. It has a nice visual motif, and the forme change is pretty neat. But the song... I absolutely love Meloetta's theme (Relic Song, was it?)! Great Musical too.

My votes for this round go to
Xerneas - It has a pretty nice design, and it's the "good" legendary in a sense.
Mewtwo - For being the only Pokemon who can out-match Arceus in terms of BST.
Palkia - Space!
Dialga - ...and time!

lolnone I don't like legendaries oops! Lugia's the coolest of the lot though since Olli's somehow convinced me that it's cool Pokémon (despite being the single most boring Pokémon to use/face in battle) so I voted for that cutiepie. Was also considering Darkrai but he just doesn't seem special any more for some reason! The only legendaries I particularly like are the golem trio so I'm looking forward to next week. :D
