best legendary ever in the history of pokemon

[wolfie1177]

ok, i see all these threads going around of "dialga vs palkia" or "whats teh best sinnoh legend", so i thought i would make an end-all poll on who is the best legendary, period. unfortunately there are like 30-something legends and only 25 poll slots, so i had to merge a few groups into their own poll slot

personally, my vote's with lugia, he's the best legend ever, plus he had the coolest movie

 

[Smarties-chan]

The best legend is either Darkrai, Arceus, Mewtwo or Deoxys (Attack). Darkrai has that sexy Dark Void combined with amazing Speed and Sp.Attack + Calm Mind, while Arceus has overall great stats, good movepool and STAB Extremespeed at its disposal. Mewtwo can be quite a pain after a couple of Calm Minds or even Bulk Ups if it's a physical version. Selfdestruct from Mewtwo can really hurt. Deoxys (Attack) is an amazing sweeper that requires no set-up. The only downside about it is that if it doesn't OHKO its opponent, it's screwed.

I don't see a poll. edit: nevermind, im blind.

And this should go in Pokemon General.

Anyway, Aceus would probably be the best.

My vote is for Rayquaza.
Its nothing but raw power and it has such a vast move pool.

 

[wolfie1177]

why in pokemon general? d/p is kind of the apex of all pokemon games right now, and has access to all legends, so i think it's good right here

and c'mon people, i like hearing the reasons behind your votes, that's the whole fun of a poll like this

 

[Haunter90]

Definately Cresselia is the best legendary.

 

[PokemonRox]

The best legendary ever is Lugia!! he is strong and he looks really cool

[S-HIGHLIGHT]WARNING! In the spoiler below is a personal preference, and it has nothing to do with stats and crap.[/S-HIGHLIGHT]

Spoiler:

Arceus is really a piece of crap for it to be the most powerful Pokemon. Deoxys is a just an abomination and Jirachi follows the same path down into hell. Rayquaza is horribly overrated for such a crappy Pokemon. Entei is sexy. Regi's are not. Mew is slightly... strange. Moltres and Zapdos are nice but have nothing on Articuno. Celebi = yes. Manaphy = no. Phione = no. Cresselia is not worth hunting Sinnoh for. Mesprit qualifies for one of the worst Pokemon names ever. Azelf is trash. Heatran is wide. Shaymin is shat. Darkrai sucks. Giratina really sucks. Groudon is fat. Kyogre is bipolar. Latios and Latias are stupid. Raikou and Suicune pwn. Uxie pwns Azelf. Mewtwo is... purple. Lugia is fat. Ho-Oh's name is self-explanatory.

I would say my current fav 3 are Mew, Lugia and Darkrai, but if I had to choose one between the 3, it would be Mew.

and lol @ purfugly

 

[ConfusedOne]

Help put an end to my curiosity folks who voted Cresselia...

Um... why Cressilia?

I have one but payed litle attention to it. All I know is it has astounding defenses. Is there anything else that makes it special?

 

[*xPokemon-Ninja-Girlx*]

I like Kyogre. Best move it can learn is Sheer Cold.

 

[Ryu Hoshi]

Deoxys.he can be a great attacker,speedster,or great defense,how can you deny him,one with such versatility

 

[Toshinden]

There are a million of these threads... Zapdos is still the best

 

[Toa Arceus:The Shapeshifter]

Dude,the best is Rayquaza,due to it's total owningness.

 

[Shiraishi]

Arceus is the best. It(I think)cannot be OHKOd without a setup and it gets an always STAB 100 base power attack, judgement. It outspeeds most legends, and it can sweep and wall without a transformation D:

 

[Ichida]

"Strongest?" Deoxys. It outmuscles literally everyone in terms of pure strength.
"Best?" Arceus, since all of its stats are well above average.

 

[wolfie1177]

wow, i spent like 20 minutes getting this poll together the otehr day and now it's dead....

 

[22sa]

I didn't like g/s legendaries that much but they have their cool parts as well.

Mewtwo, Mew, Rayquaza, Deoxys & Arceus. I disliked the psychics of d/p.

 

[~Swish~]

I love the legendary birds, Zapdos especially. Obviously they aren't the strongest, but still, they are quality

 

[bloo14]

Arceus

scicune

best two ever
