The best Pokemon in G/S/C?
 
Well, I've finished Crystal, and only just found out how to catch Lugia in it. And I love Lugia to bits! Personally, I think Lugia is the best Pokemon in the Metal Series! What is your preference on this?

BenjiTheKid February 8th, 2009 1:14 PM

As far as legendaries/rares go, I'd have to agree. <3

Lugia was awesome and I LOVED being able to catch it.

I didn't really like Ho-oh. (He was in... Gold... right?)

As far as just /normal/ Pokemon go... well... I always enjoy the starters. xD So, I'd have to say all the starters. But, that's a bit biased since the starters (they're... lemme try and remember... Cyndaquil, Tortadile and Chickorita in G/S/C, right?) are the ones I train from the beginning. :]

As far as Legendaries it's Suicune it's a Very useful Pokemon. I still use suicune in D/P

As for Regular Pokemon i like Typlosion it can learn Thunderpunch which will put it in contention with even water types.

I thought Ho-oh was in Silver and Lugia was in Gold.
Weren't they the opposite of eachother?
I don't know, I've never played Gold or Silver.

Anyways...:p I like Houndoom and Typhlosion and Lanturn. ^^

PokemonMichael February 8th, 2009 1:24 PM

um, i liked typhlosion...( i always started with him...), tyranitar, mantine and Lugia.

Ho oh and Lugia were catchable in both games..One was just at a higher lv

BenjiTheKid February 8th, 2009 1:40 PM

I can't remember which ones were in which.. it's been a while. >>

Now that I think about it, though, I'm pretty sure they were both in each.

HoneyBubbles February 8th, 2009 1:58 PM

Ho-oh was the mascot in Gold, Lugia was the mascot in Silver. C:
I love Ho-oh. It's a pretty bird.
Overall, I love Ampharos and it's pre-evolutions. I also love Snubull, Togepi and Marill.

Superjub February 8th, 2009 2:25 PM

Best or Favouite :S? Best, I'd have to say Lugia or Ho-Oh because they have the highest base stats :) (though, out of the two, I'd say Lugia is better because he learns Hydro Pump I think? :S Or some other water move which I cant remember XD) and Ho-Ohs water so....basically its self explanatory. Favourite has got to be Espeon (obviously XD) as its Psychic, has high Sp. Att but the main reason is because its so darn cute :3 :3 :3
Suicune and Lugia come in a close second for my favourite though :) They are also soooo cute :3

BenjiTheKid February 8th, 2009 2:46 PM

I love Ampharos and it's pre-evolutions

OH! I almost forgot about Ampharos. <3 I love Ampharos, too. I don't like it's pre-evolutions.. but, I would find a way to get one of them anyway just for that Ampharos at the end. <3

Bigboy February 8th, 2009 5:39 PM

Luigia was the best. I personally loved it and found that ho-oh was a complete waste of game space. (I know a little harsh)

But I also liked totodile, I can't look at totodile without smiling....

*~Frost Umbreon~* February 8th, 2009 8:05 PM

Of course my ultra-favorite is Sneasel, but Wooper and Quagsire, Shuckle, the Mareep line, etc are epic. :D

Thrace February 8th, 2009 8:37 PM

The GSC series had some of the best Pokemon IMO. Scizor, Lugia and Suicune are probably my favourites. I think that Tyranitar is probably the best Pokemon to come out of GSC. Its typing and movepool make it really deadly (in-game anyway).

Caelus February 8th, 2009 8:43 PM

The best ones in my opinion are Typhlosion, Tyrannitar (Sp?), Lugia, Amphoros, and Houndoom.
All five of them look cool, have a decent-to-nice move set, and their overall stats are above average at worst (Or best).

Immortal_one February 8th, 2009 10:13 PM

Lord, Suicune melted my heart.

.thatGuy February 8th, 2009 11:40 PM

You guys forgot about Entei!!
I mean solarbeam + entei = pwnage!!
:D

and Tyranitar baby!!

Wait Ho-Oh was a waste of game space? It's max stats were equal to Lugia's, and it had a great moveset.

Check out the moves it can learn. Sacred Fire, Fire Blast, Flamethrower, Thunder, Thunderbolt, Zap Cannon, Psychic, Solarbeam, Return, Shadow Ball, Steel Wing, Fly, and Strength.

I don't know that doesn't seem like a waste of space to me.

Anyways, Tyranitar is pretty much a total badass.

Ho-Oh could be caught in all the versions, but I didn't bother to catch it in Crystal. You had to catch three other legendaries to be able to. But in Silver, I cloned Ho-Oh into four of them XD

I love Feraligatr! It was my first Pokemon ever, and I don't think I could last a G/S/C game without it.

Suicune wasn't bad for me in Crystal. Took a hell of a long time to catch though XD

I never had a Tyranitar...
Entei kept running away. Eventually, I caught it in Silver, but I never encountered it in Crystal.

Ampharos...I love it! Though I never had one...
What bugs me about it is that it is an evolution of Mareep, the sheep Pokemon. And try to ask me why I hate sheep. I dare you.

Lugia learns Aeroblast and Hydro Pump. The best moves ever!!! I love Aeroblast the best, though. I love Espeon, but how I got it was kind of an accident. I was training an Eevee to evolve it to an Umbreon, and it turned out I evolved it during the day! Lucky me. Espeon is a good Pokemon because it is Psychic, and Psychic Pokemon have some of the best movesets ever. They may not have huge and powerful moves, but almost all of them are in the 60-90 power range.

Who likes Dunsparce? I love it! I trained mine to lv43 and called it Gina! Cool, huh?

dc_united February 9th, 2009 3:57 AM

Tyranitar. It had an awesome type(s) and movepool, and an amazing defense. The only problem with it was that you caught it as a larvitar so late in the game...

月面兎兵器ミーナ February 9th, 2009 8:31 AM

I love my furret, she's called Chao, and I'm going to train her lots. o3o I don't care if Furret isn't strong, its still very cute! But I think Ho-oh, Lugia or TTar win strength wise. <33

ShinjisLover February 9th, 2009 8:49 AM

Hmmmm. . Rugia (Lugia), Bangirasu (Tyranitar), Yamikarasu (Murkrow), Meganiumu (Meganium), Burakki (Umbreon), and much, much more. .

Fusktacular Frizzlee February 9th, 2009 11:34 AM

i think Tyranitar its just so cool :bandit:

bumbam February 9th, 2009 11:56 AM

if you go for stats they are
1. lugia ho-oh
2. tyranitar celebi
3. suicune raikou entei

but i liked lugia the most too

Heather February 9th, 2009 7:52 PM

I liked Suicune the most because it was a challenge to catch it. Like u saw it somewhere then it ran away but you know it wanted to battle you.

angelsavoir February 9th, 2009 8:06 PM

I really like umbreon. I took me awhile to get one but I was so happy when I did!
