Favorite Professor?

Either Oak or Juniper.

Elm and Birch had some awesome moments early in the game but they sorta disappeared as the game went on. Birch also had that piece of [bleep] son Brendan that I wanted to sock a good one - he did not raise that boy well. Rowan is blah for me. Sycamore...
Spoiler:


Oak is the original and has the most appearances, and his design commands respect as a scientist.
Juniper had her fair share of great moments and wasn't forgotten as the game continued on. She also has her father Cedric.
 
I like pretty much every professor besided Rowan...he is just too serious and to me, he didnt feel special or unique in any way. My 2nd favorite has to be Oak, for being the one in the original games and the guy who gave me my very first Pokemon. Favorite out of the bunch would have to be Birch, who had the most original introduction i think, being attacked by a Pokemon, and is a really nice guy all-around
 
Oak's the best, He Actually Looks like a Professor He's No.1

Second would be Prof.Birch for his Great Intros.. and He also looks like 50% Professor and 50% Cool Beach Guy :p.

other than them would be Elm and Rowan, Not those last ones
Cause I never played Those games in which they appear :D
 
Oak gets the place for me as well ^^ though I should give a special mention to Professor Juniper since she's the only female canon pokemon professor within the games
 
My favourite Pokémon Professor has to be Professor Oak. Despite the fact that he is an old man, he is quite cool and being the original Professor he set the tracks for the future generations.
 
Professor Birch, and ironically because he completes the look of a professor who gives you real-life tests. Take our first encounter, when he expects us to take a Pokémon and fight the Zigzagoon/Poochyena and doesn't even provide help, tactics or advice. I mean, sure, he was chased around by the critter, but once we engage into battle he's quite free to take charge or something. He tests us, so to speak.

I've always wanted to say that Professor Oak is the man when it comes to Pokémon, but our dex overflows by the time we finish the game so, I think contributions from all professors are equally important.
 
None of them had the same effect on my childhood has Oak, with the minor exception of Elm. Gen III was terrible for me in every aspect, as was Gen IV. Gen V was OK; however, I found that going forward Nintendo focused less on charisma in their characters. They just didn't have the same effect on me as old Oak's dream of filling his PokeDEX.
 
I'd have to go with Elm. Part of it might be nostalgia talking but I find his personality to be really adorable :P It's just the little things like how he put a smiley face at the end of an email that you can read on his computer in his lab :P

Second favourite would have to be Oak because of how accomplished and loveable he is.
