5th Gen Favorite Unovian Pokémon?

[PokeCommunity.com] Favorite Unovian Pokémon?
Generation V released some of my absolute favourite Pokémon! Their designs are amazing and gave me a really fresh feel playing through Black and White for the first time. A lot of the new 'mons were constantly bashed which bugged me, I feel they were really underrated. That's where Garbador comes in! This thing actually looks awesome to me. It's a freaking out of control garbage monster, it sounds like it could be a horror film from the 90's. This thing could pass as a character from FNAF, right? It reminds me of the Captain Underpants: Big, Bad Battle of the Bionic Booger Boy books that I read a lot as a kid. The nostalgia is so real, stop hating on Gabador guys. Trubbish is hella cute too.​
 
It's a tie between the Hydreigon family and Cottonee family, don't you want to cuddle with these Pokémon? ^_^
 
My favourites are Genesect and Elgyem! Genesect is such an awesome bug! He has a good backstory and the Drives are very cool! He destroyed all the competition for me in-game! I like Elgyem because of the Roswell comparison and it's pretty cute too!
 
Honestly it's a tie between Vullaby/Mandibuzz and Jellicent. The first two I just adore based on looks alone. Jellicent is just the first mon from Unova that I really could say was my team's MVP. Unova had some really good mons despite not being my least favorite region :x
 
I find it really difficult to choose, because there are so many Unova Pokemon that I just love. Garbodor, Genesect, Excadrill, Stunfisk, Samurott. Braviary, Reuniclus. But if I absolutely had to choose my favourite, it would be Swanna. One reason is because of it's really adorable and graceful design. It's look very calm, majestic and regal, and I love it. Another reason is Swanna is, hands down, my favourite Pokemon to use in NU and even RU, because no one expects it. Yes, it's easy to work around, but if I can make it work it's very satisfying xD
 
It's a tossup between Excadrill or the Hydreigon family (though, I think Deino is adorable). :)
 
My Favorite Was Actually A Tie Between Vanilluxe And Garbodor I Loved Both Of Their Pre Evolutions And I Love Poison And Ice Types So Much :D
 
The Gothitelle line - With no chance of getting a Ralts in either game (Bar an annoying endgame quest in B/W2 I used the Astral Body Pokemon as my go-to Psychic. In fact my Gothitelle (I named Paige) was the main player of my team.

Whimsicott - Quite possibly the cutest Pokemon ever. My favourite ever Grass Type and great fun to use in battle.

Oshawott and Dewott - I really liked the designs here. Samurott felt too much like Walrein.

Purrloin line - Finally a good cat Pokemon after the misfires of Delcatty and Purugly. Liepard is my favourite all time Dark Type.

Haxorus - Straight up an awesome looking Dragon

Golett and Golurk - My first shiny and I love his shiny colour scheme. Also it's really cool to fly on a huge golem. Sadly his normal colour scheme looks like something Dr Eggman would send after Sonic.

Ah yes I love Swanna, it's a fairly good rain abuser thanks to one of its moves, Hurricane getting boosted to 100% accuracy in the rain along with buffing up all its Water-type attacks as well. If you also happen to get one with Hydration (its hidden ability) it'll also heal any status conditions when the rain is out. In fact, I had one with a set based on this in a random battle on Showdown once and wrecked my opponent with it.

So fun when you show just how rough Water Pokemon can be when the rain is out.
 
Whimsicott, Lilligant, Vanilluxe, Chandelure, Cinccino, Galvantula, Zoroark and their lines.
 
Serperior is my all time favorite pokemon, simply because it was my first. It has a great design, decent movepool, and thanks to that hidden ability that finally came out, is competitively viable. It'll always be my favorite, but Unova holds quite a few that rival Serperior.

Gigalith, Volcarona, and Durant also make their appearance on my list. Gigalith was my first shiny, Volcarona is just a beast in competitive play, and Durant I didn't necessarily like at first, but over time has grown on me. All very good pokemon.
 
Im more of a VGC player so
Amoonguss
Landorus
Hydreigon
Volcarona
& Bisharp.
 
My favorite Unova Pokemon is probably Scolipede with Beartic coming in close at second. I really love Scolipedes design so much and Beartic has an amazing one as well. Although most people wouldn't agree with me on this one but I think if used right they can be extremely powerful Pokemon and super awesome companions.
 
Trubbish, Lilligant, and Whimsicott, and Bisharp. Trubbish is probably my absolute favorite, though. I can't really explain why I love it so much but I find Trubbish so endearing? I always loved it but it's probably the cute fanart of happy Trubbishes that made it my Unova fave.

And I'd like to think that if Trubbish were real, I'd be a good match with it because I have no sense of smell.
 
Gen 5 had plenty of amazing Pokemon. So much I don't know if I should include them all. First of all, Serperior. This was my first companion in Black and White and I never chose the other starters since then. There's also Scrafty whose swag speaks for itself, also great competetively. I'm actully also a Vanilluxe's and his whole evolutionary line's fan and I don't understand hate that it gets. Then there's Ferrothorn, an ultmate stall machine, freaking adorable Tympole, freaking Frillish and its evolution that disables foe's moves left and right, majestic Gothitelle, powerful Hydreigon, freaking Bisharp, Haxorus, Excadrill, Maractus and this and that and... whew. But the best of all are Pokemon with really unique typings such as Chandelure and Volcarona. Gen 5 has just too much greatness to offer.
 
My all time favorite 5th gen Pokemon has to be Eelektross, still.

But shout out to Zoroark being pretty bad ass and causing people to rage quit online :P

Oh and Liligant for being so pleasant looking and fun to use.
