Posting for the GT thread, but anyway I like Sawsbuck more. The idea of a deer that changes based on the seasons is neat, and my favorite of them is the Autumn form. Normal/Grass is an interesting typing considering you don't see Normal paired with much other than Flying.

I don't really care much for Leavanny, I like it, just not one of my favorites from this generation.

I would have to be in favour of Sawsbuck. I don't like how Leavanny is extremely week, especially the fact that her Grass/Bug Type causes her to be 4x weakness against Fire and Flying, making it extremely vulnerable.

Leavanny is somewhat.. creepy, haha. Which stinks because Sewaddle is too adorable.

So yes, I prefer Sawsbuck and it's high up there on my favorite grass types list. Changing with seasons and being a deer earns it many brownie points.

Yeah bugs just creep me out too much, although I like Leavanny as it's a strong bug pokémon, and I just loved my Eviolite-equipped Swadloon in Black.

But definitely more on the Sawsbuck side of things - great pictures, I take it that's screengrabs from an anime episode? The fact that I see wild deer out of my window / running in front of my car almost weekly gives me more of an affinity to them. Plus I found Normal/Grass to be more interesting than Bug/Grass, and the seasonal changing thing is pretty awesome. For a pokémon that shows off a gimmick, it's no Castform - who I also like, but had to plan my battles around getting it involved but not killed on Emerald - as it can actually hold its own in battle.

I'm saying Sawsbuck because I've used one before and know it can be a strong battler, plus the whole season thing is awesome :) Not taking anything away from Leavanny though, Burgh's was pretty tough :)
