I really like Articuno. I never used it however because i wanted to keep it 'original'.

I like Articuno and Zapdos.

This is a hard one for me to pick actually, but I will have to say Zapdos. This is because I still have an original and legitimate Pokemon card of Zapdos which I used to show off to friends all the time as a kid. It's an integral part of my childhood collection and so I suppose I have a natural nostalgia toward it, despite not really obsessing over it in the anime, games or manga.

I do love the other two, though.

When I was young my favorite was Articuno, as I grow up that spot was taken by Zapdos. Zapdos in my opinion is the strongest among its peers. :)

Zapdos has always been my favorite. It was the first of the trio I ever caught. I also love its design and I used it a lot in the original games. Nostalgic Pokemon for me :3

Somewhat between Zapdos and Articuno. I always thought Zapdos looked neat, and I thought its typing was awesome, although Articuno definitely was the prettiest of the three. I would have liked them all near equally if it weren't for Moltres, which I don't mind but it's just...not quite as interesting as the other two are to me, I guess? Not just in looks but also in typing. "Oh...another fire/flying, yawn compared to the other two birds then."

And yet I think Moltres is the only one I ever really tried using in a team back then, ah ha. Didn't last for long though. I don't recall being a big fan of using legendaries.

Zapdos.

Drill Peck just wrecked out my brothers Moltres xD. And he is a Thunder guy so he will wreck for sure.

Zapdos because he looks the fiercest out of the trio.

Zapdos >>> Moltres > Articuno

I like Fire more than Electric but Zapdos is much better. Dont like any of them much by design but Zapdos is the least off putting.

Gonna hop on the Zapdos bandwagon, as it's the strongest and looks the coolest of the three.

Articuno, though I like Zapdos too.
I never really bothered with Moltres, weirdly.

I like Articuno and Zapdos. I never used the birds for anything though. However I did have some cool Zapdos toys as a kid; one I still have that's just a huge plastic figure and the other was smaller and shot fake lightning bolts from its wings.

I liked Zapdos, the jagged design and the Z in the name I loved about it. I wouldn't use one though, I would pick Mewtwo over Zapdos and if I could, Mew over that.

Moltres. A fire bird was pretty cool to a 5 year old kid, and it's still pretty cool today.

I had Moltres in my first ever game - Blue. After that though I always went with Zapdos. Never really used Articuno - I was more a fan of Lapras if I wanted to use ice.

Zapdos for sure. Was my favourite Pokemon, the one I used the most and my undefeated champion when I played at school.

Zapdos all day long.

The bird trio has always been my favorite and now a days I can say I like all three but as one who loves electric type Zapdos takes may vote. :D

Articuno was mine based off of aesthetics alone. I usually hooked up my team with a Zapdos or Moltres unless I had a Gyarados with thunderbolt or an Arcanine.

It's a hard tossup between Moltres and Zapdos. I always end up boxing Articuno as soon as I get it, but depending on who my starter was that would decide who I used between the other two. I usually go with Venusaur as my starter so most of the time I use Zapdos.
