Yay, a new daily thread I'm sure to enjoy :)
I'm not gonna go over all of the ones so far (am I allowed to do all that? I'd post it all in a spoiler {:3} ), but I just
love Rotom so I'll do it just this once {XD}
Rotom
When I first found this thread, I'd recently just changed my avatar to Rotom (after hearing the Rotom story in Chuggaaconroy's current Platinum playthrough), so I was surprised to see this ^_^ Rotom is one of my absolute favorite Pokémon. I vividly remember having a dream involving finding Rotom in the Old Chateau, a little after Platinum came out iirc. Ever since then, I've held Rotom very close to me, spiritually.
I caught him in Platinum and brought him up all the way to Gen 6 ^^ I certainly remember thinking that it was a legendary back then. To this day, I personally still consider it one, arguably. And, to be honest? It may be because I don't remember using his other forms in the games, but I think I just prefer good ol' vanilla Rotom. I think it's adorable, while the other ones, except Fan, aren't so much. If I'd make a new form for him, it'd be based off a radio, and the special move would be Boomburst (I have a feeling this isn't very original).
Ampharos
Boy, did my opinion of Amphy change in the last few months :P Prior to getting Super Mystery Dungeon in November, I didn't have much of an opinion on it or the rest of its line, but I fell in love with the adorkable, silly Ampharos in that game the instant he appeared, and since then, Ampharos has become one of my absolute favorites. :)
Amphy has an absolutely adorable and awesome design, he's got a decent movepool, ability, and (besides Speed) stats, possession of one of the few +3 stage stat changes in the
entire game, and on top of that, a gorgeous Mega with a nifty type addition and stat boost. I just love Ampharos <3
Not too long after I gained a liking for Amphy, I came to the point of my first Y playthrough where you could catch Mareep, and of course I caught one with the intent of keeping him a prominent part of my journey, which I've been doing since :) I named him Doandry ("Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep"), he's currently level 54 with Thunderbolt/Dragon Pulse/Cotton Guard/Thunder Wave, and I've Mega Evolved him quite a bit ^_^ I've used him quite a lot, and I plan to make him a part of my E4 team as well :) He does have Careful nature (decreases Sp. Attack), but I don't mind, he's still very useful in my battles, and I still love him <3
As for what I think could be improved about Amhparos? He is kind of sluggish for an Electric type, and even moreso in Mega form...if anything, he could be given a speed boost, or an ability that makes him faster...I kind of dislike what they chose for Mega Amphy's ability (Mold Breaker), so at least that should be changed. Maybe something like Quick Feet? I'd also love for him to have a lot more Dragon moves to take advantage of the extra typing in his Mega.
In the end, Amphy has simply become one of my favorite Pokémon, and one that will always stay close to my heart <3
Cubchoo
Hmm...not much for me to say on this one, but I think he's darn adorable, as well as Pancham and Teddiursa. Who's cutest? I'm honestly not sure... ~_~ But, they're all cute together in their own way, we can all agree on that :P
