People can make fun of it all they want, but I'm in love with this thing's design. I only wish it had a better movepool. D:

Spoiler:


Yes, it's seriously my favorite GenV pokémon. XD

I love that guy too! I've always liked odd Pokemon, and another one of my favorites is Cryogonal. I use it competitively, and it's pretty great (physically, no, but it's great for a Special attacker and sponge along with Recover, and is also a fun spinner). Also Stunfisk - I'd say he's my favorite.

Favourites are Excadrill, Haxorus, Archeops and Chandelure. All the power houses really. As for dislikes, there really isn't any, except maybe the stupid patrats that pop out every step you take.

Oh......Same answer here. Hate those Patrats......-_-

I guess I'm kind of a Gen V hater, but ZOROARK. OMG, this think is a beast. I love everything about it.
I also like Mienfoo/Mienchao, but I have no idea why. I guess it's because Mienfoo is cute and Mienchao is just......strong. It's design is mediocre, IMO.

If I was to pick my favorite 5th gen pokemon I guess it would be Whimsicott.
As far as the one I hate the most, it would have to be klink and its evolutions.

I actually like most of the Generation V Pokemon. There were some really great designs in there, things like any of the starters, Emolga, Bisharp, and the Simis... There are a few in there that I don't like. I'll admit I am on the giant boat of people that don't like Garbodor. The design seems just bad to me. But then again, I can say the same for a few older Pokemon as well.

Volcarona is a great lead but its 4 times weakness to rock and the popularity of stealth rock are the only thing holding it back. Start with a rapid spin and it is a great Gen V pokémon



Ya, I agree Crazyme931, Volcarona is the COOLEST Pokemon I have ever


seen and used!!!!!!! Besides the weakness and stealth rock popularity, I


think Volcarona is the coolest Pokemon in BW, along side Zekrom,


Stunfisk (jk),lol, and Braviary

Volcarona FTW!, Oh and Larvesta, he is cool too.......

Samurott is my fav, If only it showed off its sword in its battle sprite, my least favourite has to be Stunfisk, because, well... It's Stunfisk... :P At first I actually thought it was an Electric/Ground type Magicarp, then it dished out a few moves on me, I was expecting Splash lol.

[SIZE="a"]My favorite pokemon in gen5 as well as my second favorite of all pokemon (snorlax is first) is most definitely Bisharp. Hands down.



My least favorite is definitely anything in the klink line[/SIZE]

I really don't like Samurott. I think it ruins its evolutionary line. I really like Oshawott and Dewott, but I hate Samurott.

Favourite Gen V Pokemon: Probs Chandelure. It looks amazing, has great stats, awesome typing. It's just an awesome critter any which way you look at it.

Least favourite Gen V Pokemon: Druddigon. It's just... there. Under normal circumstances, it would be awesome, but it really isn't. It looks fugly, is ridiculously slow, and just isn't good to use. For a Dragon Pokemon, it really is quite pathetic.

My favorite Pokémon in 5th Gen was defs Hydreigon :3 He's so cool-looking and has incredible stats and a brutal move pool to boot. My least favorite is a tie between Simipour and Simisear -.- I still can't get over their godawful design.

When the designs for all the new Gen V Pokémon were first released, I was kind of upset. Then I bought the game and I quickly began to fall in love with most of the designs. Outside of first gen, Gen V has some of my favorite Pokémon of all time.

Favorites: Victini, Snivy, Oshawott, Excadrill, Whimsicott, Scraggy, Scrafty, Carracosta, Archeops, Zorua, Zoroark, Minccino, Cinccino, Axew, Fraxure, Haxorus, Cryogonal, Mienshao, Rufflet, Braviary, Hydreigon, and Volcarona.

Least Favorite: Liepard, Roggenrola, Boldore, Lilligant, Trubbish, Garbodor, Klink, Klang, and Klinklang.

I'm completely neutral about the rest of Gen V Pokémon.

i dislike druddigon, cause it looks like it was done in a hurry.
and also purrlion, cause it looks like another version of glameow without the puffy tail

To be honest, I'm really proud of generation 5. I was more disappointed in generations 3 and 4...but, if I had to pick out of generation 5, I'd say the only one that comes to mind would be Alomomola. :/

I really like Krookodile, he's pretty beastly. For least favorite i'd have to say Emolga on account of the strife he caused me by using Acrobatics all the time : /

Zebstrika is probably my favourite and my least favourite is that garbage pokemon... Both of them.
