Ahahaha! I knew this would popup SOMEWHERE! Anyway, Reuniclus is my fav, even though Gothitelle was my most used in the games. I like them equally, but Reuniclus comes out strong. Before the English games, during school I cut out their shapes and wrote their jap.names over and over. They were so catchy, Gochiruzeru and Rankurusu

Yoshikko November 6th, 2011 8:06 AM

Reuniclus without a doubt. I liked its design when I first saw it already and it's one of the reasons I wanted White instead of Black. I don't like Gothitelle at all.

Gothitelle was the first Pokemon from B&W that caught my eye and it has remained a favorite since. I was hoping it would be Dark/Psychic but that's my only true gripe with it.

Snivy063 November 6th, 2011 8:14 AM

Reuniclu, basically this Pokemon helped me a lot during my journey, it's a pretty strong one.

This sprite is so cute. :'3

Cordelia November 6th, 2011 8:25 AM

Reuniclus is much better than Gothitelle... the design and everything is far superior. Makes me wish I chose white =P

Oryx November 6th, 2011 8:27 AM

I love Reuniclus soooo much. I love it competitively and its design and tbh imo it has one of the best 3D models out of all of them so yeah Reuniclus 100000%

Squirrel November 6th, 2011 9:13 AM

Definitely Reuniclus. Despite what it is, it manages to be very cute and insanely powerful. Plus I seem to have something which stops me liking human-shape Pokemon, putting Gothitelle at a huge disadvantage from the start. :p

T3chwolf3 November 6th, 2011 9:16 AM

I have Black but Reuniclus is just ridiculously strong as a Psychic, but Gothitell is more rounded out. They kinda serve a different purpose however, Reuniclus is for special attack and Gothitelle is Special Defense. I like their designs equallt but if I had to choose, it's Reuniclus

A Pixy November 6th, 2011 11:01 AM

Reuniclus, easy. I really like Reuniclus and its entire lines' general theme. It's kind of like the inside of a cell. The nucleus and all the other stuff. Seeing it grow arms with all the stuff floating around in jelly is just great designs.

Gothitelle has the problem of a bland design. After 5 Generations and FINALLY having no Pokémon restricted to one (GENI) or two (GENIII) colours, it seems like a waste that this ones primary colour is... black. Oh, but its eyes are a random colour. n_n

Also, that hair... hat... something is bugging me. What the hell is it supposed to be? Same with those wrist things. o_o

sherreamethyst November 6th, 2011 11:05 AM

Reuniclus without a doubt. It's one of my great team members, with uber awesome Sp.At! It's slow but you can have a great combo with Trick Room and Psychic/Recover. I love mine so much, and it's pretty much the only reason i'm happy with having White. It also has a super cool design! I love how it's so bubbly and cute!!

Seems to be a Victorian era dress, but the hat throws me off too lol, I guess just on the weirder side of fashion back then

Ineffable~ November 6th, 2011 11:34 AM

Reunicluuuuus without question. :D I used it in game and it was BOSS I also love its design and stats and ABILITY (Magic Guard is the coolest thing ever) and movepool and ahhhhhh <333333
It is one of the biggest reasons I picked White. :D And Solosis that little adorable little green sphere I just wanna squeeze it. <33

However here's some love for Gothitelle: I lovelove its design and cry, and Gothita is one of the cutest things I've ever seen. <3

Sap Sipper November 6th, 2011 11:51 AM

Reuniclus is definitely more useful in a battle, and it is also definitely cuter, but I love Gothitelle's design much more than Reuniclus', and I bought Black, anyway, so I'm biased.

ZBomber November 6th, 2011 12:46 PM

Based solely on their stats, I'm gonna have to go with Reuniclus. However, I haven't used either in game yet.

Hikamaru November 6th, 2011 12:46 PM

As I'm a Black player, I go with Gothitelle.

Her pre-evos are cute and she hits pretty good. She is mainly a Special Defense specialist but I give her good moves too. When I first saw her, I started loving her and she is what made me get Black. She has an awesome cry and a cool ability, Frisk which is so helpful for hunting for items.

She's now one of my powerhouses in Unova.

Plus, she represents girl power despite the fact she does have a 25% chance to be a boy.

You Go, Gothitelle!

Atomic Pirate November 6th, 2011 12:54 PM

Reuniclus, while insanely overrated, is much better than Gothitelle. I have tried raising both, and, while Gothitelle was much stronger than I expected, Reuniclus is much better.

deoxys121 November 6th, 2011 12:55 PM

Reuniclus, definitely. Reuniclus is much better on the offensive. So what if it only has 30 base speed? Reuniclus gets Focus Blast! Also, Reuniclus is SO SQUISHY! And Magic Guard lets Reuniclus use Life Orb without losing HP.

Mr Cat Dog November 6th, 2011 12:57 PM

Reuniclus in pretty much every way. Its design is kinda cool (and not super-creepy like Gothitelle), its move-pool is amazing, its stats are great... it's just a winner in my book. It's a shame I got Black, as Reuniclus is probably one of my favourite Gen V critters and I've never had a chance to use one in game. Oh well.

blue November 6th, 2011 1:15 PM

Really can't call this one, I've got a Level 73 Reuniclus and Level 51 Gothitelle.

ScarletCross November 6th, 2011 1:20 PM

I prefer Reuniclus majorly over Gothitelle. Mainly because of its looks but also its strength. I did have a Reuniclus in my team and he was pure pwnage until I was able to transfer my Cresselia over. I still have a heart for Reuniclus though. Its pre evos are so cute too <3

oocyst November 6th, 2011 1:26 PM

I choose Reuniclus, it was one of the first B/W pokemon I really liked, Gothitelle is one of the B/W pokemon I really dislike. Reuniclus is also very strong, I don't know about Gothitelle though.

Zelda November 6th, 2011 2:27 PM

Time to answer my own poll here! There is nothing more to say than what has basically already been stated as a reason to choose Reuniclus over Gothitelle. It even has a better Japanese name to be honest (Rankurusu ← Gochiruzeru). So like many, Reuniclus gets my vote. :)

jkls39 November 6th, 2011 2:34 PM

I never used Reuniclus before so I don't know much about that Pokemon. Since, I'm a Black version player (still not yet done with White, actually), of course, I'll be choosing Gothitelle but she has also disadvantages in battle. She may have high Special Defense but she is slow and low in Defense so she dies easily to physical Pokemons. I used her many times but later on gave up on her. As for the design, I go for Gothitelle, of course. :)

I used a Gothitelle (female, Calm nature, currently Lv69) and although she did face losses at times, she became an almighty battler on my Black team. She is mainly a Special Defense specialist like you said, but she does have a higher Speed than her counterpart Reuniclus (who is nearly as slow as Musharna). Gothitelle was the reason I chose Black, loved her design.

I know Defense and HP are her weaknesses stat-wise, but you can EV Train her.

You could always ask for someone to trade you a Reuniclus, we do have a Trade thread remember?
