Zekrom, because he doesn't look stupid.

I would have to pick Zekrom because as much as I want to know about everything, all the facts and knowledge of the world. I would rather spend my time as far as way from reality as possible.

There should be a signature here somewhere.
I wonder where it's gone.

The combination of Dragon & Electric types is what prompted me to choose White version instead of Black. Zekrom's design and typing was the reason why I gotta have it in my collection of legendaries. Reshiram's typing & design wasn't too appealing. lol

I originally liked Zekrom more, but after looking more at Reshiram I came to prefer it. It looks more regal and majestic, and it gets some cooler attacks like Blue Flare. That move is fricken boss.

Ironically, I think ideals suit me more than truth does (since I am always seeking more knowledge) but I prefer Reshiram to Zekrom. Both because it's of my second-favourite type (Fire) and because it has those gorgeous white feathers and blue eyes.

In case it wasn't really obvious, I like Zekrom.


I do like Reshiram too, but not as much as Zekrom. I'm not exactly into the whole truth vs ideals thing they supposedly represent though.


Also, I'm not sure that truth really=knowledge, but whatever.

I accidentally voted reshiram when actually I meant to vote for zekrom :/ The black dragon with red eyes and a pulsing blue color on its body and tail just looks SO insane! Love it! (Mew is still the best legendary pokemon there is, I even like him more than non-legendaries and thats tough because I HATE using them but would use mew any chance I had, hes just my favorite pokemon).

I like Reshiram's design better. It was what made me pick Black as my first 5th generation game. And I forgot which one symbolizes what^^;

I know Black was my first 5th Gen game and I do love both, but I think I got more attached to Zekrom lately so yeah voted for him. I still love both equally but I'd love to follow ideals over truth.

Definitely Zekrom. While I still really like Reshiram's design, where I feel like they put a lot of emphasis on beauty, Zekrom just shines a bit more due to how tough and generally bad-ass it looks. I've also always really liked the shade of black they've used for Zekrom, as I feel like it fits it really well, whereas Reshiram's shade of white just doesn't stand out to me quite as much. Also, the only fifth generation game I've ever owned is Black 2, so there's gotta be a bit of bias in over it ;p
Not removing this from my signature!

For me it's a draw, they are both evenly matched. After all they were once 1 dragon (that has to be revealed yet in my opinion).

I would choose Zekrom cause I thought it looked cooler and is Dragon/Electric, but after playing Black, seeing and catching Reshiram, I loved it. Not that I don't like Zekrom anymore, I still prefer its pictures and want one, but Reshiram in action was better than I expected with that fire. As I never really battled with them I don't know which one I prefer in my team.

Zekrom has always been my favorite of the duo, basing that opinion only on design. Reshiram just looks too "poofy" for my tastes. I like strong bulky Pokemon designs, and Zekrom fits that along with the dark coloring.

Don't know who represents truth and who represents ideals, but that wouldn't affect my decision anyhow. Zekrom will always be my choice.

I definitely have to go with Zekrom here. I think his design looks amazing, black body with the lightning blue highlights looks so badass. Since electric is one of my favorite types, being able to catch and use an ELECTRIC dragon is awesome.

All aboard the Zekrom train! I really love electric types so that alone is enough to give it that first spot, hah. The blue lighting is definitely an awesome touch to its design!
