Personally I like Gorebyss a lot better, it is my 4th favourite Pokemon and it is so much stronger than Huntail. It also looks better.

I like Gorebyss over Huntail primarily because of the design. Both of them are equally ugly though. XP

PlatinumDude December 23rd, 2010 1:31 AM

Huntail because it's better at mixed attacking than Gorebyss. I also like it because it lures in prey using its tail.

WHATNO

Gorebyss is much more majestic : (

Huntail is better for competitive battling, though. I still choose Gorebyss.

I don't like both Pokemon,but i like Gorebyss more. I just see a ugly Pokemon with high Sp.Atk and Psychic better than a quite cool Pokemon with weak Sp.Atk and Crunch. I couldn't get them at Emerald,as none of my friends played the games and i had no GBAs. I had them a few times on DPPtHGSS,but they weren't really great ones for me.

Huntail only because it's shiny is awesome. Gorebyss is really cool too, but Huntail is cooler :)

Le Creep! December 23rd, 2010 3:38 AM

I quite like Gorebyss' design more. Honestly, the first time I saw Huntail I was like ''...is that a fake?''.

Seriously, I kinda hate Huntail ._.

GlitchCity December 23rd, 2010 6:19 PM

Gorebyss, just because of design. I havent really used it in battle, maybe I should get around to that sometime. I would've chosen Huntail, but I have to keep reminding myself that Huntail is a water-type and not a water/electric pokemon.

Grovyle42(Griff8416) December 24th, 2010 3:37 PM

Huntail's my favourite if the two.

Dooonerz December 24th, 2010 3:43 PM

Huntail. His very mixed moveset is lethal compared to Gorebyss

altariaking December 24th, 2010 3:47 PM

Huntail is so awesome. I hate the fact that you can only get him by trade...

JALEEMEE December 24th, 2010 6:15 PM

I like huntail. Im suprised everyone else like Gerobyss. Huntail looks badass

Akita December 24th, 2010 6:21 PM

Gorebyss all the way! I can't say I'm a fan of the evution line, but I think Gorebyss is pretty cute & fun to battle with~

649 December 24th, 2010 6:21 PM

That is sort of hard. I like the both of them equally, and I really wish Huntail was Water/Dark and Gorebyss was Water/Psychic.

In pokemon Ranger - Shadows of Almia, Huntail had a Dark type assist, and Gorebyss had a Psychic type.

I chose Gorebyss because I've used Gorebyss before, but not Huntail. I also think it's a bit stronger.

Air Pichu December 24th, 2010 7:24 PM

Huntail is actually really good. I really like his high attack stats and a pretty darn good moveset. His shiny form is by all means, awesome.

solarowl December 26th, 2010 2:08 AM

I like Huntail because it looks cooler and it is a better attacker and battler.

dragoniteuser December 26th, 2010 3:42 AM

I always liked Huntail's design, even used it in several occasions!

Silver! December 26th, 2010 3:48 AM

i like huntail because of it's mixed attacking skills and it has a cool typing

BBA_Beyblader_321 December 29th, 2010 7:06 PM

They're both pretty neat, but I like Huntail better just because I like it's attack power~ ;)

Kishijoten December 29th, 2010 7:29 PM

Gorebysshttp://pokemondb.net/static/sprites/diamond-pearl/icon/gorebyss.pngbecause I like how this Pokemon was being designed with pink/blue colors.

Ayselipera January 1st, 2011 1:58 PM

Another versus thread where I practically like both Pokemon the same. This seems to be a reoccurring theme for me!

Well to start out, speaking strictly on their designs I honestly like both the same. They're both the different extremes of each other. Gorebyss looks sweet and innocent while Huntail looks vicious and terrifying. Needless to say I find that very appealing. I always love to see a split evolution of a Pokemon vary so greatly between each other.

Now for the stat distribution. As I have said previously in the Gyarados or Milotic thread I prefer high special attack water Pokemon over high attack water Pokemon. Mainly because I like to teach Surf to all of my water Pokemon and Surf just doesn't seem as useful when I throw it on a physical water type. So that leads me to go with Gorebyss. The higher special attack is both more appealing and useful.

Garde January 1st, 2011 2:48 PM

Gorebyss is pretty good in battle, and I like it's design. It might not be as pretty as Milotic or Starmie, but it's still lovely.
I like Huntail, but I think it's design could have been done better.

Hoppip January 2nd, 2011 2:33 AM

I much prefer Gorebyss as like Ayselipera I like Pokemon with high Sp. Attack and that I can teach Surf to. It also looks way prettier.

King Raichu January 2nd, 2011 4:13 AM

I vote for Huntail, but i'm not a big fan of them both.

imevil January 2nd, 2011 6:06 AM

there both really ugly, but huntail looks cooler so him

MEGAS January 2nd, 2011 7:11 AM

Hard to decide. Both are really good... O_e
But if so, I prefer Gorebyss more cuz beautiful and yet cute. :P

pumpkinziggy January 2nd, 2011 9:55 AM

Well, Huntail looks cooler in my opinion, but Gorebyss is still cool-looking and so much better for battling (I've met a lot in the level 50 Battle Factory in Sinnoh who have destroyed my team). Thus, my vote is Gorebyss.

However, that's one of the things that makes them so unique.

I love both of them. Actually, they are two of my favorite Pokemon. I'm a big fan of both of their designs. To be honest, I always thought that Gorebyss seemed menacing and unpredictable (Those eyes! ._.), while Huntail looked vicious, yet dazed and confused as well.

Superjub January 2nd, 2011 12:35 PM

Gorebyss, simply because of it's appearance. It looks quite cute and elegant, unlike Huntail that looks wierd and ugly. I dislike how Gorebyss kills its prey, though...

Kitrigar January 2nd, 2011 12:47 PM

Huntail. Simply because it's facial expression makes it look kind of stupid(?). Haha. It's just a funny facial expression.
