What is your favourite fire type pokemon in gen 5 pokemon in b/w.
 
What is your favourite gen 5 pokemon in b/w.

Eleanor October 14th, 2016 6:57 AM

wut.

Well, my favourite Fire-type from Gen 5 has to be Chandelure (which I've used in my White run). Raising it as a Litwick for quite a long time has undeniably paid off!

My overall favourite Pokémon from that generation is quite hard to choose... but at this point I'll just go with my starter, Samurott :)

Fire type is a tough one! I really, really like Darmanitan, Chandelure, Emboar and Heatmor! If I had to choose one I'd probably plump for Darmanitan - that thing is a genuine monster!

Victini, Chandelure, Volcarona, and Reshiram are my most favorite Fire-Types from Unova. I feel Reshiram has a bit of an unfair advantage due to being a mascot, and Victini is a legendary that I haven't used much... but it's still really hard to pick between Chandelure and Volcarona! I use both competitively, too...

Litwick line I love because of the lore surrounding it. And Darumaka I love because it's doing really well for me in my W2 run!

Altairis October 14th, 2016 9:51 PM

Chandelure is my favorite Fire-type in Unova! :)

Miau October 14th, 2016 9:56 PM

I would have to say Darmanitan, I've used it twice now in my runs and it was amazing both times.

Not many Fire-types in Unova though, but they're all pretty cool, there's Victini and Reshiram, legendaries, and I also like Chandelure and Volcarona, both are strong Pokemon with great designs.

LegendChu October 14th, 2016 11:06 PM

Love Victini, its one of the best Unova Pokemon.

Sektor October 15th, 2016 12:37 PM

There are more than a few favorites, but going by the thread title, I'm going to say Volcarona. Volcarona is a beast when it comes to lighting things on fire.

LegendChu October 15th, 2016 10:57 PM

And Volcarona as well, for having one of the highest total stats for Non-Legendary Pokemon.

Emboar has so far been my favorite Fire-type in BW. The thing is truly a monster for the region and can basically solo-run the region by itself. It was so much fun to use the couple playthroughs I did with it.

Honorable mention to Darmanitan, so stronk!

LegendChu October 18th, 2016 12:37 AM

Almost forgot Reshiram (although I like Zekrom a lot more). Both Reshiram & Zekrom have aswesome designs.

I like Darmanitan a lot, although Chandelure is pretty cool as well. Got to give it to Darmanitan though. Chandelure wins best ghost though.

This pretty much sums up my opinion as well. It's a toss-up between these two for me, but I also have to place Darmanitan ahead, mainly because of how useful it was on my team. Chandelure was a neat concept, though, and I'm glad we're seeing more and more types paired with Ghost.

MyUglyOne October 22nd, 2016 6:43 PM

darmanitan is probably the best non-legendary fire Pokemon from Unova, but the entire Litwick line is my favorite for their design and typing.

Hikamaru October 23rd, 2016 6:32 AM

My fave Unova Fire-type is definitely the Litwick line, with Chandelure's beastly base 145 Sp. Attack and powerful Ghost and Fire moves. Reshiram and the Darumaka line are good as well, along with Pansear's line, but then I'm probably the only person out there who even loves those monkeys.

Degurchaff October 25th, 2016 1:14 PM

Chandelure is my favorite one out of all of the fire types in gen 5.

Boynsy October 25th, 2016 5:50 PM

I only just recently played 5th Gen for the first time a couple of months back - I used a Darmanitan on my team and was quite a big fan. However I only really used it because it was the first fire type I came across and I tend to go for a core of Fire-Water-Grass in my in game teams, so I wouldn't necessarily say that it was my favourite.

Having just looked at all the fire types, it doesn't appear that there is too much to offer so I'd have to say Chandelure is my favourite - it's a really slick design and the whole family just works. I know lots of people aren't fans of inanimate objects as Pokemon but I think they work really well at times, especially with regards to the Ghost type.

Sektor October 26th, 2016 12:15 PM

I think the newer Fire type combinations are good as well. Ghost/Fire, Psychic/Fire, Bug/Fire, Dragon/Fire... so many good Fire types introduced!

thedestinedblade October 27th, 2016 9:33 PM

Lot of good fire-types introduced in Gen 5, but I still take Reshiram over any of them. It's regal appearance, typing, and overall inspiration are what put at the top. It's shiny form is beautiful.

Emboar gets a lot of hate, but it was easily my most used of the Unova starters, and I like it's mean appearance. It looks like it just wants to trash things up.

AmetsuCAT October 27th, 2016 10:18 PM

Probably Reshiram. I do like the other fire types of Units but Reshiram has always been the most rememberable, mostly likely because it was one of the first legendaries that I actually liked.

princess garghelina October 29th, 2016 2:49 AM

My favourite fire type pokemon is emboar. I feel bad when people say thet emboar sucks. Trying emboar and find why i like him.

blue October 29th, 2016 3:35 AM

Chandelure and Emboar are my two favourite Fire-types from Unova. Using them both on separate teams proved how viable they are both specially and physically!

The_Awesome_Pikachu October 29th, 2016 6:18 AM

1.Volcorona
2.Emboar
3.Reshiram
