Janp September 20th, 2018 3:34 AM

Well, I kinda do both sometimes and I have to say that catching Pokémon only in Pokéballs is quite easy and less annoying.

Looking at Shedinja's back or hold Drifloon?

VisionofMilotic September 20th, 2018 9:27 AM

Drifloon. This Pokemon is normally said to take away kids , but since I am over 18 it may not fly away with me. If it tries then I will fight, I will scratch, claw and do my best to try to burst and deflate that balloon before it takes off.

Blaziken or Infernape.

LadyJirachu September 22nd, 2018 8:18 AM

Blaziken :3 nostalgic friend x3 also was in my favorite pokemon ep (aka "The Cave Of Trails"^^)

Clefable or Azumarill? :3

CodeHelmet September 22nd, 2018 11:30 AM

Clefable since it’s the original Fairy.

Pecha Berry or Pinkan Berry

Meadow September 22nd, 2018 12:18 PM

Pinkan Berry! Who wouldn't want a chance to turn their Pokémon as pink as strawberry ice cream? ;D

Would you prefer shiny Pokémon to be a lot more common (around a 1/10 chance), or should they still be as extremely rare as they are right now?

VisionofMilotic September 26th, 2018 4:38 AM

Still rare, if they become too common then they lose their value and finding a shiny is no longer a big deal.

Find your favorite shiny or find your favorite Pokemon with its best ability,nature and max IVs?

Meadow September 26th, 2018 8:56 AM

I'd go with the latter option! I think I prefer most (if not all) of my favorite Pokémon in their normal colors, haha.

Would you rather fuse two Pokémon into one new species, or split one Pokémon into two different new species?

Arma September 27th, 2018 1:07 PM

I'd rather split, more Pokemon means more fun. and this probably means I can split the shitty bits off my least favorite Pokemon and enjoy their quality parts a bit more

TMs that are all unlimited use, or all HM moves being as potent as Surf?

CodeHelmet September 27th, 2018 11:10 PM

TM's that are unlimited use because TM's can be replaced if you decide you want a different move in its spot. HM's are permanent.

Splishy Splash or Bouncy Bubble?

VisionofMilotic September 29th, 2018 5:36 PM

Bouncy bubble!

Use your only water stone to evolve Staryu into Starmie or use the stone to evolve Shellder into Cloyster?

Hyzenthlay October 2nd, 2018 5:07 AM

I'd much prefer a Starmie! My mum's favourite Pokémon, haha.

For a new Bug-type, should it be based off a slater (woodlouse) or termite?

VisionofMilotic October 8th, 2018 6:42 AM

The former, I googled slater woodlouse and it looks a little like venipede. That Pokemon line looks pretty cool.

Do a pokemon research internship with Professor Juniper OR do the internship with Colress as your mentor?

Hyzenthlay October 18th, 2018 10:52 AM

Juniper would be the better choice for me I think, even though I do like Colress and wish we got to see more of him!

If you were an NPC trainer that stood in the same spot all day, would you rather stand in a pleasant early route, or a less pleasant, more rugged route where only the strong pass by?

VisionofMilotic October 19th, 2018 9:34 AM

The peaceful spot on the early route. While I would rather have an exciting battle with a strong trainer, waiting for someone to walk by in a dungeon for 10 hours is out.

Soul Dew or Latiasite/Latiosite?

strangerhypno October 20th, 2018 5:18 PM

Soul Dew, the mega stones ruin their designs imo, they look the same as well.

Headbutt a tree for hours looking for a Heracross in GSC or trying to fish for a Feebas in RSE?

Meadow October 21st, 2018 9:10 PM

Is Feebas the one that's located on a specific randomly generated spot on the map? If so, I think I'd rather Headbutt trees haha. xD;

Lose a battle against your obnoxious rival, or lose a battle against a member of an evil team?

LadyJirachu October 21st, 2018 10:37 PM

Lose a battle against the evil team. I can handle my rival's taunts, but I don't think the other people could handle the world being token over/destroyed overall...

Korrina's one Lucario in the anime or her second of her two Lucario that she share's with you in the games? :3

Hyzenthlay October 22nd, 2018 7:43 AM

The one she gives you! I was so happy to get a free Lucario. :DD

Cheryl or Riley?

strangerhypno October 22nd, 2018 5:56 PM

Cheryl was bad in battle but Riley gave me a free Riolu egg. No thanks. You can keep your egg.

Cheryl it is.

Kanto Safari Zone or Hoenn Safari Zone

Meadow October 22nd, 2018 7:27 PM

Probably Hoenn's! The layout is pretty cool, and I remember being happy when I found a Gligar there! :D

Rage Candy Bars or Lava Cookies? (Yum!)

strangerhypno October 22nd, 2018 7:44 PM

The one that's all the rage, of course.

Dragonite or Salamence?

VisionofMilotic October 23rd, 2018 4:22 AM

Dragonite. It is the cutest fully-evolved Pokemon I can think of, my favorite gen 1 Pokemon ever. I love the silly dragons like Dragonite, Goodra and Drampa.

Eat a purple castelia cone that mysteriously glows or take home a Ghetsis doll that has an evil glint in his eye and appears to have moved closer to you whenever you turn back to look at it?

Meadow October 24th, 2018 7:43 AM

That goes without saying! Of course I'd rather take the Ghetsis doll! Why, you ask? Because I was the one who cursed that doll in the first place, muwahaha! Because I would never trust purple ice cream for the life of me! ;)

Collect Pokémon cards, or collect Pokémon figurines?

Janp October 24th, 2018 10:17 AM

Cards. I have full wardrobe of them.

Playing with Banette or Mimikyu?

VisionofMilotic November 9th, 2018 7:39 AM

I think I'm gonna go with the mimikyu ^_^

Chansey or Blissey?

Lycanthropy November 9th, 2018 9:52 AM

Tough choice. I think I'm going with Chansey, because using the Eviolite is fun!

Lance's battle music or Cynthia's battle music?

Both are so freaking amazing aaaaa <3

forg November 11th, 2018 12:59 AM

I'm in the mood for Lance's Battle Music <3

Plusle or Minun? They're just too adorable for me. Couldn't just choose one.

VisionofMilotic November 11th, 2018 1:09 PM

Minun. believe it or not I captured Rayquaza in Emerald with a minun named Lux!

Passimian or Oranguru?

Arma November 12th, 2018 12:45 AM

Minun was my first lvl 100 Pokemon ever!=D

Passimian for sure! Fighting types are awesome to being with, and Passimian has such a cool design to boot!

Walrein or Aggron?

forg November 12th, 2018 3:40 AM

Minun really packs a punch doesn't It? Cx I was unaware it was somebody's way of capturing Rayquaza. Impressive :3

Aggron :D I much prefer its design over Walrein's.

Kyogre or Groudon?

ZeoStar November 12th, 2018 6:15 PM

Kyogre

Rapid Spin or Defog?

Meadow November 12th, 2018 9:56 PM

I'll go with Rapid Spin just for the cool animation, hehe! :D

X/Y sequels or Z Version?

ZeoStar November 13th, 2018 5:34 PM

X/Y sequels. So many characters, a game in the future showing where they all end up would work so much better than a third version. As long as they also explain what happens to the original protagonist from the first X/Y.

Froakie or Squirtle?

Meadow November 13th, 2018 7:14 PM

Froakie—I liked Ash's Froakie a lot in the anime! :D But Squirtle is still pretty fun, too!

Ride your bike indoors, or sprint down Cycling Road by foot? Professor Oak will yell at you either way. ;)

VisionofMilotic November 14th, 2018 5:35 AM

Sprinting down the cycling road on foot sounds more fun because its a longer stretch of space. Watch me break the law!!! Muwahaha!

Mandibuzz or Braviary?

Meadow November 16th, 2018 7:30 PM

Braviary!! Its design is just too good to pass up. :D

Hehe, this just gave me an idea...


Get chased by Professor Oak angrily pedaling on his bicycle, or get chased by Professor Oak who runs at a superhuman speed? ;)

VisionofMilotic November 18th, 2018 10:07 AM

They both sound like good mini games, but I think i would rather run from a Professor Oak who moves at superhuman speed. That way the only thing likely to outrun him would be a pokemon, meaning I go on a pokemon-back ride to get away. Yay!

Escape Oak's wrath on a cheetah-inspired fire/ground type Pokemon or a gazelle-inspired fairy/fighting type pokemon?

ZeoStar November 19th, 2018 4:12 AM

Gazelle. I'd really love to see a fairy/fighting type.

Would you rather see Mega Infernape, or Mega Typhosion?

VisionofMilotic November 19th, 2018 6:42 AM

Mega Typhlosion all the way!

An event surf Pikachu that is an electric/water dual type or an event fly Pikachu that is an electric/flying dual type?

Meadow November 21st, 2018 8:13 PM

Surfing Pikachu for the win! I've always wanted one ever since I was a kid, aha.

An evil team leader who is extremely easy to beat, or a very generic NPC who is almost impossible to beat?

VisionofMilotic November 22nd, 2018 5:51 AM

Easy evil team leader, this isn't that unusual, especially if you have multiple matches. N is a good example, he starts off pretty weak with just a purrloin or something when you first see him in Accumula, but his team gradually gets larger and better with each rematch as the story progresses. His Reshiram/Zekrom in BW2 is pretty fierce at level 70.

Learn to rollerblade with Korinna or learn to fly a Jet with Skyla?

Meadow November 23rd, 2018 4:26 PM

Let's learn from Korrina! Rollerblading is tonnnnnnns of fun, omg! :D

Get completely lost in a pitch-dark cave without any repels, or travel across a seemingly infinite body of water without repels?

VisionofMilotic November 24th, 2018 10:10 AM

The cave, I've gotten my way out of this scenario actually before. Just stay close to the walls.

Run from a shiny pokemon by mistake or release your starter Pokemon by mistake.

Meadow November 24th, 2018 9:54 PM

Definitely the first situation! Since I don't actively look for shinies, I thankfully wouldn't be throwing hours down the drain if I accidentally ran away from one. xD (I'd still be pretty upset, though!)

Growl or Tail Whip?

noa November 25th, 2018 10:44 AM

Growl, the noise it makes is cute :3

Litleo or Shinx?

VisionofMilotic November 26th, 2018 6:33 AM

I like both but...Shinx if I must pick

Origin forme Giratina or Altered?

Meadow November 26th, 2018 7:21 AM

Origin Forme, for sure! :D I always thought Giratina looked just a little awkward with legs, ahaha.

Oran Berries or regular Potions?

Metriname December 15th, 2018 1:30 PM

Oran Berries, they don't cost money and can be used as held items.

Waterfall or Aqua Tail

ZeoStar December 15th, 2018 5:45 PM

Aqua Tail, because it's not permanent.

Fly on Moltres or Ride a Wailord?

Metriname December 15th, 2018 6:08 PM

Ride a wailord, i don't want to burn into smithereens.

5 Heavy Balls or 20 Level Balls?

noa December 15th, 2018 9:59 PM

20 Level Balls

Butterfree or Beedrill

Meadow December 17th, 2018 12:05 AM

That's a tough one! I like them both equally, but I'll probably pick Butterfree just because I like its pre-evolutions more!

Pidgeot or Staraptor?

ZeoStar December 17th, 2018 3:44 AM

Staraptor

Woobat or Zubat?

Metriname December 17th, 2018 9:50 AM

Zubat, he's just the best bat

Adaptability or Guts?

noa December 17th, 2018 9:00 PM

Guts, i'm all about the power

Falkner or Volkner

Metriname December 18th, 2018 8:25 PM

Volkner, i don't like the edge, but i'm ok with the edge.

2 Max Potions or 1 Full Restore?

noa December 18th, 2018 8:30 PM

1 Full Restore for those high HP Pokemon

Gigalith or Golem

Metriname December 19th, 2018 11:17 AM

Gigalith, a big rock elemental is cooler than a big rock lizard.

breeding or ev training

noa December 19th, 2018 2:01 PM

EV Training

Wingull or Taillow

Metriname December 19th, 2018 2:15 PM

Gen 5 or Gen 6

Metriname December 19th, 2018 3:52 PM

Garbodor or Vanilluxe

Meadow December 19th, 2018 8:17 PM

Vanilluxe! How could I say no to ice cream? :(

Rock Slide or Stone Edge?

noa December 20th, 2018 1:50 PM

Rock Slide, good in double battles and can flinch

Ledian or Ariados

Metriname December 20th, 2018 3:00 PM

Ariados, i actually like it

catch a Beldum with a beast ball or catch a Chansey with a premier ball

Hyzenthlay December 21st, 2018 12:10 PM

Chansey, mostly for the fact that I like it way better, even though finding one was always a nightmare in itself, let alone catching it. xP

Would you rather be Ho-Oh, soaring endlessly through your sky kingdom, or Lugia, beneath the beautiful ocean waves, slumbering peacefully?

Pieman50 December 22nd, 2018 4:30 PM

While I've always loved Lugia, I'd love it even more to be a Ho-Oh soaring through the sky creating rainbows as I pass by.

Mewtwo or Deoxys.

Meadow December 27th, 2018 8:59 PM

I'll go with Deoxys! It was one of my favorite Pokémon when I was younger!

Surfing Pikachu or Flying Pikachu? :D

alisaie December 28th, 2018 6:33 PM

Surfing Pikachu!! Always reminds me of Puka ♥

Meowth or Alolan Meowth

noa December 28th, 2018 7:25 PM

Meowth

Pidgeot or Noctowl?

alisaie December 29th, 2018 12:59 PM

PIdgeot. Ash's Shiny Noctowl is an exception though hahah.

Colosseum or XD

PageEmp December 31st, 2018 12:06 AM

Never played either, but the former sounds slightly more interesting so maybe that.

Ralts or Baltoy?

Janp December 31st, 2018 8:08 AM

Ralts. I've used both of these lines multiple times and I feel like Ralts line was overall better.

Gen 8 or Sinnoh remakes?

VisionofMilotic December 31st, 2018 5:35 PM

Sinnoh!

Shiny Rapidash or shiny Ninetales?

noa December 31st, 2018 8:51 PM

Oooh, both are cool but I think Rapidash looks ways cooler...

Shiny Jumpluff or Shiny Ampharos?

CF1994 January 1st, 2019 2:19 AM

Shiny Ampharos. It gets even better with a Mega Evolution.

Dratini or Goomy

pkmin3033 January 1st, 2019 4:21 AM

Dratini. Goomy is...kinda nast.

Darkwing Ducklett or Green Lanturn?

VisionofMilotic January 2nd, 2019 6:52 AM

Green Laturn sounds kind pretty.

Catch a shiny Ho-oh or catch a shiny Lugia?

Janp January 2nd, 2019 11:50 PM

I already have shiny Lugia, so I'll go with the Ho-Oh.

Pokémon game with Yo-Kai Watch mechanics OR Yo-Kai Watch game with Pokémon mechanics?

LadyJirachu January 3rd, 2019 10:51 AM

Ohhhhh a Pokemon game that plays like yokai watch would be cool :o (i enjoy playing pokemon games best overall xD)

Eevee or Pikachu? ;)

pkmin3033 January 3rd, 2019 11:32 AM

Pikachu...unless I can evolve the Eevee into a Glaceon, anyway. Then Eevee.

Pokemon FPS or Pokemon Racing?

noa January 3rd, 2019 5:05 PM

Pokemon racing!! That sounds fun

Swellow or Staraptor

CF1994 January 3rd, 2019 6:41 PM

Staraptor, because it learns Close Combat.

Alolan Sandshrew or Alolan Vulpix?

malanaphii January 4th, 2019 8:20 AM

alolan vulpix!

marowak or alolan marowak?

noa January 4th, 2019 1:17 PM

Alolan Marowak! It's just so cool...

Talonflame or Toucannon?

PageEmp January 4th, 2019 11:43 PM

Talonflame maybe?

Cyndaquil or Meditite?

ZeoStar January 5th, 2019 5:31 AM

Cyndaquil.

Aegislash or Gengar?

Janp January 6th, 2019 2:49 AM

Aegislash!

Pokémon as mainstream thing OR counterculture thing?

Metriname January 6th, 2019 9:57 AM

i think i like it as a mainstream thing.

hatching eggs or farming for happiness stat

CF1994 January 6th, 2019 12:16 PM

Farming for Happiness, since I like to make friends.

Surf or Sea Skim?

Meadow January 6th, 2019 10:30 PM

As much as I like the move Surf, I'm gonna have to go with Sea Skim here!

Would you rather be a Gym Leader or a Trial Captain?

pkmin3033 January 7th, 2019 6:05 AM

There's a difference between the two?

Gym Leader.

As a gameplay feature, Day/Night or Physical/Special move split?

strangerhypno January 8th, 2019 8:45 PM

Not a big fan of gen iv but they did do some things right, I'd pick physical special split cause it helps a lot of pokemon like Feraligatr for instance that had a high attack but their typing was special or vice versa. Day and night is a nice feature though, endless day makes the games seem kinda lifeless.

Clear S.S. Anne or go straight to your rival?

alisaie January 9th, 2019 6:00 PM

Clear S.S Anne for that extra experience!

nidoking or nidoqueen

VisionofMilotic January 9th, 2019 7:47 PM

Nidoqueen, I like her color scheme and defensive capabilities.

Blastoise or Feraligatr?

strangerhypno January 11th, 2019 5:37 PM

Feraligatr is my fav so I pick it

Swellow or Unfezant

alisaie January 11th, 2019 6:39 PM

swellow!! good slick birdo

grimer or trubbish

strangerhypno January 11th, 2019 6:43 PM

Grimer if it's in its Alolan form. Trubbish otherwise.

Excadrill or Sandslash

VisionofMilotic January 12th, 2019 4:51 AM

Sandslash. I think Excadrill is more powerful, but I just like the design of Sandshrew and Sandslash.

Sceptile or Venusaur?

strangerhypno January 12th, 2019 1:56 PM

Sceptile, I like the og grass starter but I'm more fond of Sceptile.

Ditto or Castform?
