  • Welcome to Second Generation's new featured thread- the Poll of the Month! Borrowed from Third Generation, the First and Second Generation boards will be doing monthly polls as well. And the threads are simple- pick any of the options from the poll above, and feel free to post about your choices. Also, if any of you have a question that you would like to see featured as the PotM, feel free to send me a VM with your idea(s), or leave it with your post in this thread. If your topic gets picked, you may even earn a special reward!

    Now with all that said, this month's poll question is:

    "Who is your favorite member of the new Elite Four?"

    A lot can change in two years! Only one of the previous Elite Four members retained his position, opening up 3 new slots, filled by faces new and old. This Elite Four didn't have the same punch the previous one did though, as they weren't quite as strong as the Gym Leaders of Kanto, or your final challenger waiting atop Mt. Silver. Still the question remains- which of these 4 highly skilled trainers is your favorite? Vote away!

  • Karen completely stands out to me as one of the most memorable Elite Four members of all. She was the very first Dark-type specialist, her team is notable to me for being one of the most challenging, and I just love her design as as a whole. I've said this before but her dialogue still remains as one of my favourites from any NPC in the Pokemon world.

    I agree with Blue on the quote!

    But Koga was my fav. The fact that a gym leader advanced and became E4 was really cool and a proper link between the generations. Also he was super cool in the pokespe manga (8

  • I voted Will as well. Don't know exactly why, but I guess it's because out of the types they use, I love Psychic-types most. I also love most of Will's team as well, such as Xatu and Slowbro.

  • Seems I am alone on this one but I chose Bruno. For whatever reason, I always found him to be the most intriguing and is probably the reason I became such a fan of the Fighting type to begin with. I also respect his dialogue a lot. It may not have been deep or super important but it still felt real. His overwhelming confidence in himself and his Pokemon, but not cocky, and then his clear disappointment in himself after losing really hit home for me.

  • They didn't really seem to have too much personality. :c Maybe Koga because we got to see him before he was an Elite Four member and therefore he had some sort of growth? Dunno, honestly. None of them really stand out that much.

  • My vote goes to Karen because her party is pretty diverse as far as Type Trainers go. She's got a Ghost, a Grass, a Flying and a Fire partner, not to mention 2/5ths of her party are Poison, which is a kick to the teeth to her Dark type. (Although Lance did have Aerodactyl, Gyarados and Chrizard. BTW, forgot him in the polls. What if there are ppl who want to vote for the Dragon King himself?)
