Articuno, don't care what people say about it. There will always be a special place for it in my heart because it is so ridiculously beautiful. The sound it makes is the first time I really paid attention to a pokemon's cry, it's like a song.

Misty's Psyduck or Dawn's Piplup?

noa January 19th, 2018 5:00 PM

Misty's Psyduck, so cute lol

Zapdos or Raikou?

VisionofMilotic January 19th, 2018 5:38 PM

Man, tough questions today, these are all mons I like. I think I have to go with Zapados though. He's more familiar to me from the Power of One movie. I also got more acquainted with using it from my last run of Soul Silver. He's really good post game, and helped me get through the battle frontier. I also like how his plotline is tied to Lt Surge. Both Raikou and Zapdos are extremely good Pokemon, both are well-designed.

Flygon or Garchomp?

XNaut January 19th, 2018 5:39 PM

Garchomp

Azumarill or Lopunny?

VisionofMilotic January 19th, 2018 6:35 PM

Azumarill

Boss fight with Evice from Coloseum or Greevil from XD: Gale of Darkness?

PageEmp January 20th, 2018 1:51 AM

The Coloseum thing. Don’t understand what this is but I think Coloseum is better as a game so yeah

Donphan or Gliscor?

XNaut January 20th, 2018 12:37 PM

Donphan

Incineroar or Arcanine?

Janp January 20th, 2018 1:23 PM

Arcanine! Litten line is my least favourite out of Alola starters.

Steven or Wallace?

正真正銘 January 20th, 2018 6:23 PM

This is a hard choice, but I will pick Steven.

Deoxys Attack forme or Deoxys Defense forme?

VisionofMilotic January 20th, 2018 6:29 PM

Steven.

Wallace is fun in his own way, he's artsy and glamorous. But Steven is the character that had the most thought put into it and develops a real friendship with the player. This alone makes me prefer Steven, especially in Oras. He is so involved in gen 6 from giving you the eon flute to going through the delta episode by your side.

Also Steven is always introduced at a higher difficultly level than Wallace. In Ruby and Sapphire he is the league champion, and Wallace is a gym leader. In Emerald Wallace rises in the ranks with help of Steven, but Steven is still clearly the final boss with Pokemon more than 20 levels higher than Wallace, closer to Mt Silver Red.


EDIT: Sorry! You answered the question before me, I missed you. Let me answet YOUR question now 正真正銘

Deoxys defense. I like the speed form best of all, but between attack and defense I would pick defense because powerful as Attack form is it's more intimidating for me to use. It just takes one aqua jet to die.

Red as a character and trainer or Blue?

noa January 20th, 2018 9:24 PM

Blue. I love Blue!

Moltres or Entei?

strangerhypno January 20th, 2018 9:53 PM

Entei, Moltres's design is too basic. Maybe it's a good thing but Entei looks a lot more distinct, like a powerful force of nature, and it was made the focus of the third Pokemon movie. Moltres was relegated to a plot device to evolve Ash's Fletchinder in the anime and a pokemon weapon in the 2000 movie.

Politoed or Poliwrath

Damien.aspiring.fandev January 20th, 2018 11:20 PM

The Go-Rock Squad grunt with the politoed was a gag back in the first Ranger,
however I'm going to type poliwrath because that evolution doesn't require
trading...

"In the sky"(PR:GS) or "Soaring the sky"(ORAS)?

正真正銘 January 21st, 2018 12:38 AM

There are all such good music themes! I think i liked Soaring the Sky better though.

Inverse battle or Rotation battle?

Janp January 21st, 2018 12:40 AM

Rotation all the way.

Battle Maison or Battle Tree?

VisionofMilotic January 21st, 2018 4:20 AM

Battle Tree

The rewards are better, shiny gible or dratini and you actually get experience.

Zinnia or Lance?

XNaut January 21st, 2018 11:00 AM

Lance

Gen 1 battle music or gen 5 battle music?

Just only the battle music for gen 1 and gen 5.

Do you mean the core games from said periods?
If so, gen 5 : the OSTs have a more instrument-like soundfont.

D,P&Pt soundfont or HG&SS soundfont?

正真正銘 January 21st, 2018 1:16 PM

I like both soundfonts, but I like the D,P&Pt soundfont better.

The original Ruby/Sapphire or Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire?

Janp January 21st, 2018 1:42 PM

Ruby/Sapphire. Their remakes changed the story in pretty boring way, changed some locations to worse and were easy. On the other hand, they had great post-game and were still good remakes. But not that good as originals.

Male or Female Meowstic?

VisionofMilotic January 22nd, 2018 6:26 AM

Both look cute. I think I will pick female because at a glance I like its movepool better, even though I would give the edge to the male on design. He reminds me of Luna from Sailor Moon.

Mega Mewtwo X or Y?

ZeoStar January 26th, 2018 5:48 PM

Mega Mewtwo X

Truant or Slow Start?

VisionofMilotic January 27th, 2018 5:43 AM

Either would be a nightmare, but I think Truant is truly the worst possible ability in the game so I will pick Slow Start. Moving slower with reduced attack is better than not being able to move at all. With Regigigas you might be able to stall your opponent out with status, protect etc. With Slaking the reverse is going to happen-- you will be stalled out, and never ever move. I've defeated Slakings this way myself. Also with Slow Start it goes on a long time but can eventually end. Truant never ends!

Crystal or HGSS?
