I love them both..............*raffle* .....It is Lilligant XD

Kenshin5 November 22nd, 2011 5:04 PM

I can't say I was a huge fan of either with the inception of the game. At first Whimsicott design I thought was meh, and I still feel Lilligant design is so closely related to Bellossom which seems like a lack of originality. None the less I still like both Bell and Lilligant concept. I really haven't used either in battle so I really can't say which I would prefer.

For me it is Lilligant, for the sole reason that it is nicer-looking. Judging from the equality of the voting so far (17-17), I'd suggest that they are extremely similar and any difference is really a matter of personal preference.

But that's just me.

Woah, this is a very close poll.

*crosses fingers*

Whimsicott had tied due to appearance. :\ I find him cuter. :\

Yeah, actually what seems to be (and hopefully will be) one of our closest. This is also the poll I've had most of an interest in, largely supporting Whimsicott. I think Whimsicott also might be tied because Lilligant/Petilil had a big following early on (due to a certain moderator!), whereas Whimsicott didn't, and in design, Lilligant technically wins out with the "beautiful" design, and not everyone plays competitively so chances are they aren't aware how awesome Whimsicott is, sadly.

nicely said. I've been always a huge fan of Whimsicott. He is certainly one of the great Pokemon made in generation five. Yes, sadly, the truth is upon us. Not all play compettively, and many just based favoritism on appearances, and not usability. (though, I'm not saying that Lilligant is unusable. In fatc her own tempo + petal dance combo is deadly.) It's just Lilligant has a more obvious advantage over Whimsicott.

The poll is not yet finish. Have faith brothers.

Whimsicott. It's so FLUFFY! It also reminds me of Jumpluff, which I used to love using. I can't say I've used either, though. From a quick glance over, Whimsicott wins on the usability side of things. If Lilligant had more than just Grass offensive moves, then it might stand a chance, but it's just walled way too easily.

TheGr8 November 23rd, 2011 1:02 AM

Whimsi mainly because of prankster but it is one of the most annoying pokemon to play against, its kinda like if you don't have one get one :)

treecko's awesomeness November 24th, 2011 11:15 AM

Solely based on design, I'd have to say Whimsicott. Lilligant seems like a bit too much of a Bellossom clone.

TY November 24th, 2011 11:24 AM

Lilligant, because of it's Ability which prevents it from Confusion.
Useful for Petal Dance

Pkmn Trainer Touko November 24th, 2011 2:41 PM

Lilligant! She's so beautiful! <3

Kaleidoscop November 24th, 2011 6:50 PM

Whimsicott because of his design. He is an epic elfman, with great quirks that i can easily use.

A Pixy November 25th, 2011 7:03 PM

That 'fro cracks me up every single time.

Legendary Silke November 25th, 2011 8:50 PM

Lilligant because it grew on me after all these days, and I can relate to it more than Whimsicott. Petal Dance + Own Tempo is also a killer when you can get Lilligant to hit first. I know that Whimsicott can use status moves first in almost every case, but... I'm not sure whether having no direct attacks suits my style.

chella182 November 26th, 2011 10:33 AM

I went for Lilligant. They're both pretty cute, but I don't know... just something about Lilligant draws me to it more than Whimsicott. I don't use either on my team, though. My Grass-type on my team is either Maractus or Virizion.

Cherrim November 26th, 2011 11:38 AM

Whimsicott is quickly becoming one of my new favourite Pokémon. It is so cute and so fluffy. I finally used one in my most recent playthrough and it was easily my favourite Pokémon on my team, even if it wasn't all that useful. xD;

(What? You wanted me to base my answer around battling? Pfft.)

Thrash November 26th, 2011 11:40 AM

Oh, this is so much more difficult than it should be! Whimsicott is so broken useful competitively, and the fact it's so fluffy and adorable makes it so marvelous. But Lilligant is so elegant and wonderful in-game and I just want to have a tea-party with one.

Eh, I pick Whimsicott. Dat Prankster.

Ho-Oh November 26th, 2011 11:50 PM

Okay unstickying for now, you still have a couple more hours to vote buuuut Whimsicott totally deserves to win, just saying! :3 /soexcited

I'll "bold" the winner later!

Nica, I think that Whimsicott has won by only one vote. The closest so far I think.

Adam Levine November 27th, 2011 2:51 AM

I use Whimsicott throughout white. I like Pokemon not in the version I'm using.

That's because you can trade a Petilil for a Cottonee in White and vice versa in Black.

Melinda November 27th, 2011 7:56 AM

Whimiscott for sure.
She just decimated the 5th gym in my White game for me. xD

Lilligant is pretty though so I might try her out later.

Ho-Oh November 27th, 2011 8:39 AM

WHIMSICOTT WINS YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

...as you see, I'm very excited about that. Definitely the most edge-of-the-seat poll we've had yet. XD

(Yes I decided to count down).

Conaire January 22nd, 2012 11:34 PM

I am more used to Whimsicott, but I completely suck with it, also with Lilligant. I am not much of a grass type user at all.
I though have seen Whimsicott prove themself more in wi-fi battles then Lilligants who just get pounded in the first few turns. A Whimsicott with Tailwind and Beat Up and a Terrakion wiped me easily. Lilligant is a Sweeper and Whimsicott is a Utility/Support type. They shouldn't be compared to me at all.

The Nightmare January 24th, 2012 2:21 PM

i would choose lilligant because it learns good moves than whimsicott.
