Grooouuuudooonnnn.

OK, so Rayquaza is immune to his STAB attacks. Yeah, I get that he has a low special defence and Kyogre has a high special attack with special STAB water moves in gen 3.

But he's a lava-spewing rock dinosaur who can channel sunlight and trigger earthquakes and he is awesome and also he was the mascot of the first Pokemon game I owned.
 
For me, it's the nostalgia that makes it Groudon. Back when I was 8, I played Ruby, and I had no concept of ubers or OU, and I raised that Groudon up to level 100. Plus, I think he looks really cool and has a great colourway.
 
I would have to say that I prefer Groudon overall out of the three. When I played Gen III as a young lad, I had Sapphire. This probably shaped the fact that I really wanted Groudon, because I wasn't able to obtain it myself. I also prefer Groudon's design over both Kyogre and Rayquaza. It's a fairly simple design, but it just looks amazing. I mean seriously, a huge hulking behemoth that could just walk all over anything that stands in it's way. How can you not like that? :P

Competitively, I also love Groudon's possibilities. It can run a straight up offensive set, which can walk all over Rayquaza. (252+ Stone Edge vs 4HP/0Def Rayquaza 292-344 (82.9 - 97.7%) which is OHKO after Stealth Rock damage.) The best Rayquaza could do back is hit with Outrage, which only does 52.1 - 61.8% and it only a 2HKO after any prior damage. It can run a very defensive set which walls most physical attackers in the Uber tier. Even while running a defensive set, it can deal out a pretty hefty amount of damage with Dragon Tail/EQ.
 
I like Kyogre out of the 3, because it can beat both Groudon and Rayquaza. with Groudon, a water attack like Surf is very effective, and with Rayquaza, an ice attack is double-effective towards it.
 
Well support Rayquaza but Kygore also look cool. it looks like A flying fish with feathers. And Groudon look like robotic bear with great sharp paws and claws. And Rayquaza look likes the combo of Snake and Dragon. And i really like Rayquaza's design and color. I also like Kygors's design very much. But i didn't find Groudon's design great. well its good but.. you know.
 
Rayquaza, without a doubt. It's got an awesome design and one of my favorite types (Dragon). I remember how excited I was to find out you could catch Rayquaza in HG/SS. I didn't even care about catching Kyogre and Groudon, but you had to in order to get Rayquaza :P

Also, Rayquaza's shiny sprite? Epic.
 
I used to prefer Kyogre because Sapphire was my first third generation game but Groudon's design is just epic. These two are probably one of the cooler-looking legendaries in my eyes and I really liked their roles in the games; very threatening.

So.. I suppose I'm tied between them. :D
 
I used to like Kyogre the best, only really because I had Sapphire version. That all changed about 2 years ago when I played Emerald for the first time. Rayquaza is the one ! Its cry, design, attacks - everything about I just love ! Especially its shiny form. I used imported it to my Battle Revolution game a while ago, and I thought its animation on that was perfect too.

Well my first 3rd gen game was Leaf green. Yeah Kygore is really a epic designed Pokemon but Rayquaza isn't poor. I think Rayquaza has the best design in a way. Well it our mind we can think whatever we want.

All are good looking and awesome. Groudon is very good at attack. But i didn't find it good enough at design but its great anyway.
 
Kygore is probably one of my favorite pokemon. It just has an original pokemon look mixed with legendary. Thats the way I see it at least.
 
Groudon was always my favorite of the three. I'm not much a fan of the color red and I don't particularly like ground types but he was just cool to me. As far as battling goes it's probably the worst of the three but I don't care XD.
 
Kyogre all the way for me. He was the first legendary I got to lvl 100 and he just appeals to me more than the other 2 (I'm more fond of the other two shiny forms than kyogre's but still prefer Kyogre for anything else)
 
I've always been a Rayquaza guy. It's the one that that most impressed me as a kid, and it still to this day remains one of my favourite, if not my favourite legendary Pokémon. It also gets V-Create though event now, which is awesome.
 
I've always been a big fan of Rayquaza because it's the first Pokémon that greatly appealed to me and it has very good stats.
 
Kyogre works best for me.

It's blue, it's the first legendary I ever caught in a Pokemon game, and it can absolutely crush Groudon and Rayquazza. But, both of the others are pretty cool too, just saying, Kyogre wins.
 
I guess most people will choose rayquaza as its AWESOME!

just look at the name .. it says over 9000 :P and then the snake dragon look .. Woah :D
 
100% Rayquaza. A beautiful, majestic Pokémon with a great design, and killer moveset.
