Hoenn Champions: Steven or Wallace?
 
Recently more and more People compare Steven with Wallace.Most of them say that Steven is cooler,but some people disagree with that and say that Wallace is better.

Personally I prefer Steven.Wallace seems a little weird in my opinion.

Which Hoenn Champion do you prefer?

Tell us what you think!!! :D

I never got Emerald so Steven is the only Champ I ever faced. I'm not a huge fan Water types, and that is all Wallace used even though 4 of them where dual type. I liked Stevens team more with Metagross, Aggron, the fossils and Skarmory, didn't really care for Claydol though.

I like Steven because I think Steel type are harder to deal with than Water types.Although the latter have only two weaknesses the best grass type in-game(Sceptile for RSE) can be gotten as soon as Oldale(Patience,but possible)

But I did like Wallace as Champion because Steven became a bigger threat

Steven is a better character, as a champion, I think. Wallace didn't have a champion vibe, but I felt that he was a more difficult fight, mainly cause water types are very versatile and evil. But I'm going to vote for Steven, just cause I like him better.

I personally think that Steven was more Elite four champion material. . .He was awesome!! No other word for it really, whereas in my opinion wallace was, well a bit odd to be honest!

Steven has a better chance because his Pokemon are a lot more stronger than Wallace's.

I like both Steven and Wallace, but I prefer Steven as champion. I just found it a little difficult to believe that Wallace was champion over Steven (even if he does have type advantage). What I really disliked though was that Wallace was replaced by Juan. Wallace to me will always be the gym leader and contest judge ;)

Steven. His team was much tougher to beat due to far better typing. Plus we don't really need two (artsy, cape wearing, bizarre) Water-type specialists in one game.

mikey June 28th, 2011 12:20 PM

Definitely Steven, he was more difficult to defeat. Besides, Wallace isn't really the Champion type.

miju-kun July 1st, 2011 7:12 PM

I haven't battled either of them tbh because of stupid Victory Road

Anyway, I think Steven is better because he has a Skarmory and a Metagross XP;

kitred123 July 1st, 2011 7:31 PM

I think Wallace is better, only because IMO water types are easier to take down. Steven is definately stronger and better fit, but I liked the easiness of Wallace.

Townes July 1st, 2011 8:01 PM

Steven, Wallace is a bit showy for my taste... Plus Steel-types are better than Water-types.

Uecil July 1st, 2011 8:20 PM

I prefer Steven. He was more of a challenge to me than Wallace was.

Satoshi Ookami July 1st, 2011 11:37 PM

Well since Steven is always considered as true Hoenn champion, I'd say Steven =)
Wallace is more fit to be coordinator master just like in anime =)

Plumpyfoof July 2nd, 2011 3:04 AM

Steven was so much more fun to battle than Wallace with his water types which i could sweep with one pokemon.

I OHKO'ed all of Jasmine's Pokemon. And Misty was my nightmare... She kept killing my team over and over. So, i think you can't counter Water easily while Steel has weaknesses. Also, i think Wallace looks like a Champion more than Steven. I think Steven should be last Elite 4 or last Gym Leader.

Well there's difference =) Misty is simply overpowered in any game, in Kanto games it's overpowered though it's 2nd gym leader so you don't have so good team there and in Johto games she's overpowered just because she is Misty.
However Jasmine is 6th gym leader of Johto and who doesn't know that Johto trainers are too easy...

Frisky Arcanine July 2nd, 2011 1:07 PM

Wallace; I just like him more overall =/ To be honest, I barely remember Steven's team anymore

Perriechu July 3rd, 2011 12:59 PM

I prefer Wallace, his team actually gave me a hard time, whilst Steven's just sat their and look my Fire Blasts! >: Wallace is also much cooler, and because of him becoming Champion, it allowed introduction of a new character; Juan. n_n

Mentalii July 4th, 2011 7:30 AM

I like both. But I believe I have a little preference for Steven. Moreover, the iron type than the water type is more uncommon, so it's perfect for the final battle. ;)

Kevin July 4th, 2011 8:06 AM

I like Steven better than Wallace. Steven looks better than him anyway. ;)

Atomic Pirate July 7th, 2011 1:43 PM

I say Steven was a better champ, as he was more difficult to beat and he wasn't really much of a type specialist. Wallace was actually kind of easy for me. Sceptile's Leaf Blade beat Milotic with a lucky critical hit, and Salamence destroyed everything else on Wallace's team. Steven had an interesting array of Pokemon, and none of them were easy to defeat.

smurf July 7th, 2011 2:03 PM

while i like steven the best wallace has that milotic witch is one of my favorite pokemon

GStheHero July 7th, 2011 2:21 PM

Steven just throws off the vibe of Champion. When I was a child, I used to think that Wallace was a woman. Srsly, bro.

Lashh July 7th, 2011 3:28 PM

While I personally prefer Steven in terms of favorite characters, I enjoy battling Wallace much more. That's the only champion that actually made me put my head into the game, in terms of strategy and what not.
