Deerling or Reshiram? [I remember Christmas in Unova...I was in my winter forme!]
 
Zekrom or Reshiram? XD I am with Zekrom, it looks darker than Reshiram

Rais December 11th, 2010 5:57 PM

wonder how many people will be getting black...
 
why would they make a legendary llama?! Zekrom's definitely better

TheAppleFreak December 11th, 2010 6:10 PM

I like Reshiram's appearance better. So yeah.

PlatinumDude December 11th, 2010 7:35 PM

I like both Reshiram and Zekrom equally but I'm leaning towards Reshiram because not only does it remind me of Blue Eyes White Dragon, its STAB combination is completely unresisted with TurboBlaze taken into account.

Satoshi Ookami December 11th, 2010 11:59 PM

Reshiram, Reshiram and Reshiram =)
My absolute favorite Isshu pokemon =)
I though I'd be loving Zekrom since he's dark but once I played Black I fell in love with Reshi =)

King Gumball December 12th, 2010 12:04 AM

I like Reshiram Zekrom better. I like black better and Zekrom's Reshiram'a tail is a bit too big for my liking. Also I like fire better than electric.

LOL I cant even get their names right *facepalm*

tkallab December 12th, 2010 8:22 AM

Definitely Reshiram. It looks so noble compared to Zekrom, I like Pokémon of 'good'. I also like that he's a wyvern.

Yusshin December 12th, 2010 9:06 AM

I like both, especially how their names are Arabic for Light & Darkness. Thumbs up.

(Reshiram possesses a better sprite, though, and more artistic value imo)

Yono December 12th, 2010 11:09 AM

I like both of them, but if I had to choose one, it'd be Reshiram, purely on it's loose, flowing appearance. Zekrom is more sleek and angular.

deneric December 12th, 2010 11:13 AM

Appearance-wise, I prefer Reshiram, but I like the Dragon/Electric combo more than Dragon/Fire

otaku-dono December 12th, 2010 2:51 PM

Zekrom all the way. Reshiram just looks... idk there's something about it that makes it just look stupid.

The Red Chain December 12th, 2010 3:58 PM

I love both of them greatly, but I think I'm going to go with Reshiram.
Here are all the reasons why~ :

  • Reshi is very fluffy and feathery, I prefer that over Zekrom's sleek and shiny appearance.
  • White is my favorite pigment. I've never liked black really.
  • BLUE EYESSSSS, WHITE FUZZZ. <333
  • With the whole theme of the two being nature vs technology, I'm going with nature. I love technology, but nature is unmatchable in terms of beauty and overall deliciousness.
  • When it comes down to their Yin and Yang origins, I relate more to the Yang side, thus bringing me even closer to Reshiram. <3
  • I also prefer Reshiram's shiny over Zekrom's.
As for type, I like Zekrom's more. Electricity is bombin', and it's my second favorite Pokemon type. <3


Ho-Oh December 12th, 2010 5:22 PM

Well, Reshiram used to be my favourite, but then the whole innuendo thing came up so I kinda got over it and Zekrom was then my favourite. That didn't last long... recently Reshiram has become my favourite again, mainly due to the typing (I love fire types, part or whole) and due to the shiny. I swear, it's the best looking shiny out of any other Pokemon. It just looks so angelic.

...

But yeah I like Reshiram. :3

Xiǎo Dre December 12th, 2010 5:23 PM

Reshiram, mainly because of it's unique typing. It always reminds me of Blue-Eyes White Dragon in a way.

Legendary Silke December 12th, 2010 7:35 PM

Zekrom or Reshiram, both are great. I think I love them both. That's why I voted for both. Though, I lean to Zekrom more...

Jameska December 12th, 2010 8:01 PM

Stat and Move-wise: Zekrom
Appearance-wise: Zekrom
Art-wise: Reshiram
Story and Placement-wise: Zekrom
Cry-wise: Reshiram

...Zekrom wins.

Well, these are my reasons. Reshiram is pure win. Not only Fire-types are one of my favorite, but the fact that it's white and fluffy like a real dragon makes it cool.

Soari December 13th, 2010 12:54 AM

I used to dislike both of them, but now I am growing quite fond of Reshiram. On top of having a much better appearance than the robotic Zekrom which looks pretty creepy in terms of design, so, yeah.

Regeneration December 13th, 2010 3:23 AM

Reshiram all the way! >O I dislike Zekrom; that thing is so ugly. And Reshiram looks more like a 'legendary'. IDK why. :D

derozio December 13th, 2010 3:42 AM

I prefer Zekrom over Reshiram. Why, you ask? Zekrom seems like an epitome of badass-ness, that's why! XD; But seriously, I generally prefer 'dark' things over 'light'. Zekrom isn't an exception.

Amai December 13th, 2010 4:36 AM

Reshiram is far superior.

Dooonerz December 13th, 2010 4:41 AM

Reshiram easily. Me thinks that Zekrom looks like a robot </3

dragon0fangz December 13th, 2010 4:30 PM

CANT DECIDE.

Reshiram is awesomeness, what with its white-ness and the way it looks. It looks better, but then I realized it looks completely stupid when it's flying. (watch the 14th trailer) It doesn't make sense, does it? Still, I adore it.

Zekrom, however, is cooler. Dragon/Electric is a genius typing, and its turbine is awesome. But yeah, the design is a bit generic, excluding the tail.

So, I can't decide. They both have their strong points.

Same here only I am leaning more towards Zekrom, It has one of the most cool type combos in the whole game (Reshiram has one two but most predicted a Dragon/Fire)
Also it reminds me of the Red eyes black dragon :P

Which to choose...
 
I like both, but I will have to say Zekrom not only because my favorite color is black, but I prefer dull things rather than shiny and because it just looks like epic badness in its soul. It also reminds me of the lonely and hard to understand, I like the way it reminds me of technology, since I love tech (also love nature), but those are my reasons.
