List Your Favorite Pokemon -- Does Alola make the cut?
 
Since there has been speculation surrounding the number of new pokemon being introduced, alongside charged sentiments regarding quality vs quantity, I wanted to see how gen 7 pokemon are stacking up in relation to the other generations.

In theory, it should be more and more difficult for each gen to compete as a favorite since they are stacked up against literally hundreds more pokemon than the previous generations. Certainly there are more pokemon yet to be revealed, though at this point we have seen at least half of them.

Have any of your favorites been dethroned in this reveal season?
  • List your current top 10 that represent your favorite pokemon before Sun and Moon pokemon were revealed.
  • List your current top 10 including any pokemon revealed for Sun and Moon.
  • Bold the pokemon any Alolan Pokemon (if applicable).
  • Check all Alola Pokemon who made it in your top 10 (if applicable).

Before Gen VII
1. Milotic
2. Lilligant
3. Vespiquen
4. Liepard
5. Rapidash
6. Serperior
7. Pyroar
8. Aurorus
9. Dragalge
10. Samurott

Gen VII (Present)
1. Poppmaid
2. Milotic
3. Tsareena
4. Lilligant
5. Vespiquen
6. Liepard
7. Rapidash
8. Serperior
9. Pyroar
10. Lurantis and Aurorus (tie)


So far, Poppmaid of gen VII is the first pokemon to dethrown the top spot since generation 3.
Tsareena is not far behind. It was tough to rank Lilligant and Tsareena, but ultimately Tsareena is the Queen of the Grass Pokemon. Though, Lilligant shouldn't be ashamed of being the Princess of Grass Pokemon. I am still up in the air about Aurorus and Lurantis; they are both stunning. All-in-all, I have to say Gen VII is crushing it in making a lasting impression.

Florges October 15th, 2016 5:34 PM

Current top ten:

1. Whimsicott
2. Clefable
3. Delphox
4. Corsola
5. Togekiss
6. Leafeon
7. Florges
8. Mamoswine
9. Vileplume
10. Ninetails

... I cannot change this list yet. Honestly, I have to play with these Pokemon first before I can even alter the list. The only Pokemon I can see making it on the list by looks alone is Rowlet, Tsareena, and Lurantis, but I have to use them first before I even consider changing my list.

clbgolden October 15th, 2016 5:52 PM

Currently, my top ten is:

1. Swampert
2. Lucario
3. Greninja
4. Sceptile
5. Charizard (I have a serious starter problem lol)
6. Gardevoir
7. Gallade
8. Volcarona
9. Aegislash
10. Ampharos

Unfortunately, I can't say that this list has changed :( . It's not that I don't like the new Pokémon, they all look amazing, butttt none of them have really reached "Top 10" amazing.

Mister Coffee October 15th, 2016 6:36 PM

1. Gorebyss
2. Ninjask
3. Umbreon
4. Steelix
5. Breloom
6. Chimecho
7. Cradily
8. Mawile
9. Swalot
10. Jumpluff

I'm pretty obstinate about changing my list (Well, I'm more obstinate about my Top 6 then I am with 7-10, but I am still very adamant about my favorites, I pretty much never change them.), I'm not really all that finicky about swapping out my favorites whenever a new flashy pokemon is shown off. When I pick my favorites they have to meet multiple personal guidelines to make my list which is not only based on appearance, it's also based on utility, move pool, how clever its battle design is, and overall competitive capabilities.

I definitely have picked out a few pokemon as my favorites that have been shown off for Sun and Moon, but nothing is concrete for me until the game has been released and I have played and bred most of them.
I will say this, I have extremely high expectations for Bruxish and Mimikyu.

The_Awesome_Pikachu October 15th, 2016 7:03 PM

w1f1pa55w0rd October 15th, 2016 7:49 PM

i'll be honest- i hate alolan raichu, to the core. th tail surfing? nice. the deisgn... the hell! what is that! it has blue eyes, a chubby face, and it looks like something out of a really stupid manga strip. it looks like a typical surfer dude spliced with an "electric" MOUSE!

Adam Levine October 15th, 2016 9:50 PM

The Rowlet line, Litten, Litten's final evolution, Entermaid, Pikipek, Gumshoos, Charjabug, Drampa, Ribombee, Togedemaru, Salandit, the Stufful line, Mimikyu, Steenee, Mudbray, Minior, Lurantis, Baile, Sensu, and Pom-Pom Oricorio, Komala, Rockruff, Midday Lycanroc, Wishiwashi, Pyukumuku, Morelull, Turtonator, Crabrawler, the Jangmo-o line, the Type: Null line, Passimian, Oranguru, Solgaleo, and Lunala all make it to my list.

As for the Alolan forms, anything except Rattata, Raticate (seriously, ugh), Raichu, and Grimer (which I moderately like).

classiccartoonsftw October 16th, 2016 1:05 AM

So far, none of the new Pokemon have made my top 10 yet, but Litten's final evolution does have the potential to make it. But for now, my top ten favourite Sun/Moon Pokemon (not including Alola forms of older Pokemon):

1: Litten/Torracat/Incineroar
2: Kommo-o
3: Turtonator
4: Lurantis
5: Palossand
6: Mudsdale
7: Crabrawler
8: Tsareena
9: Wishiwashi
10: Bewear

And now, my top ten favourite Pokemon in general:

1: Pikachu/Raichu
2: Gengar
3: Feraligatr
4: Tyranitar
5: Salamence
6: Volcarona
7: Venusaur
8: Greninja
9: Garchomp
10: Ferrothorn

Lunar October 16th, 2016 3:05 AM

Unfortunately, none of them have made my top 10 just yet, that being said, Litten and Bounsweet are so close to breaking into it.

Hey there! Just to let you know that I've merged your thread with this one as it pretty much covers the same topic. (:

4. Alolan Ninetales
5. Alolan Sandslash
6. Alolan Muk

Nah October 16th, 2016 2:45 PM

I like how the 3rd starter forms are on the poll but that shit's not even confirmed real yet

AmetsuCAT October 16th, 2016 3:09 PM

Top 10 Fav Pokémon before Gen 8
1. Garchomp
2. Raikou
3. Lugia
4. Arcanine
5. Blaziken
6. Zangoose
7. Reshiram
8. Honchkrow
9. Crobat
10. Grovyle

Possible contenders:
Silvally
Littens final evo (if Dark type)
Lycanroc Midday form

The reason why they are 'possible' contenders is because I don't just pick a Pokémon for its looks alone. It's usefulness/power in battle and it's effect on me personally throughout my journey are also important attributes. So obviously I have to wait to play the game first :P

JoyStar October 16th, 2016 8:22 PM

Well, so far...

Before Gen 7 (from what I can think of):
1. Mewtwo
2. Mew
3. Lugia
4. Latias
5. Darkrai
6. Entei
7. Alakazam
8. Charizard
9. Articuno
10. Rayquaza

Top 10 Up to Gen VII So Far:

1. Mewtwo
2. Mew
3. Lugia
4. Latias
5. Darkrai
6. Entei
7. Silvally
8. Alakazam
9. Charizard
10. Articuno

I totally love Silvally. :D

(I may change around my list later because it's past 12:30 at night for me so part of me's in a "Go to sleep!" phase)

Sirfetch’d October 17th, 2016 3:29 PM

Comfey and Bruxish are my favorite Alola Pokemon so far :3

Astinus October 17th, 2016 3:42 PM

I was just thinking earlier today that there are a lot of Alola Pokemon that I really like. Narrowing down my choices down to six is going to be difficult now. I can only imagine what will happen when more Pokemon are revealed!

Litten's evolution line (so far), Jangmo-o's evolution line, Type: Null's evolution line, Drampa, Salandit, Rockruff's evolution line, Tortunator (which I forgot to vote for and that I only know by the German name) are all my favorites. That's not even including the Alolan formes, which means that Exeggutor, Raichu, Rattata, and Grimer are also on the list.

Green Pidgeot October 18th, 2016 5:14 AM

Cosmog is fogging awesome and very cute as well! I would keep it that way if not for Lunaala. It could replace a few Pokemon on my top Legendary-tier list!

My top one is now Decidueye! Design-wise and typing-wise!
2. Milotic
3. Goodra
4. Gardevoir
5. Ampharos
6. Togekiss
7. Mimikyu
8. Altaria
9. Gengar
10. Dragonite
Hon. Mentions: Phantump, Flygon, Staraptor, Mismagius, Whimsicott

Xerecies October 29th, 2016 4:23 PM

Decidueye.

Degurchaff October 30th, 2016 2:10 PM

Fomantis/Lurantis beautiful designs Probably my favorite pokemons in gen 7 so far.

Iron Tiff October 30th, 2016 2:38 PM

I love Type: Null and Silvally. The Arceus knockoff idea is pretty awesome. And the way it evolves through meeting a trainer it fully trusts. It sounds different than a standard friendship evolution. I hope I'm right about that!
