2nd Gen The best Pokemon in G/S/C?

I always liked Lugia, Tyranitar, Blissey, Espeon and Dragonite.
I used to use Blissey as an all out attacker when i was stupid lol
Oooh cant forget about Rakou!
 
Baaaayleeeefff!
<3
Loved that pokemon soo much.
 
My favorite legend was either Lugia or Raikou. I think Lugia was a little better than Raikou, but oh well :)
For normal, it would definitely be Typhlosion. It could kick my rival's butt with just Thunderpunch.
 
My Feraligatr could beat anything put in it's path. I had the best moveset for it, but of course my copy of Gold doesn't work anymore. :(

I found a copy for my r4, though, so maybe I'll try and find that moveset again.
 
For Legendary Pokémon, I have to go with Lugia. It's the only Pokémon who knows Aeroblast! <3

However, as for normal Pokémon, I'll go with Tyranitar. He's a beast, literally
.
 
My favorite legend would be either Lugia or Suicune but overall my favorite was Cyndaquil
 
The best Pokemon ever is Chikorita. (:
Isn't he in the Silver version? Correct
me if I'm mistaken. xD But he's just too
cute. For legendaries, I like the 3 birds.
 
I really like Quilava and Tyranitar. It´s a pity that the Quilava-sprite in G/S/C is not as good as in the later versions.
Btw @Ayesha Chikorita is the grass type starter in G/S/C, so it appeard in each of these games^^
 
Hmm... I think I'll split them into categories...

Starter:

The best starter, in my opinion... is pretty hard. Because I really love Water types, but Typhlosion was a really awesome Starter, too. I think I'll leave it as that, since I can't truly decide...

Trade-Evolution:

Kingdra, for sure. It had a wonderfully unique typing and was just generally awesome. I unfortunately never got to have one of my own until D/P, though...

Legendaries:

I'm torn between Suicune and Ho-oh. They are both great legendary Pokemon. I'd say... I'm a little more towards Ho-oh, though. Maybe.

General G/S/C Pokemon:

Espeon, because its an Eeveelution! XD Espeon was a quick and powerful Pokemon; not to mention one of the first ever to take advantage of the time-of-day evolution that was introduced thanks to the day/night feature of G/S/C.
 
Hehe I loved my Lugia, but I really don't like using legendaries, because it doesn't provide much of a challenge. To me legendaries are like trophies, I try catching them with pokeballs (It's a real *****, but I feel accomplished after I do Entei, Raiko, and Scuicune are REALLY hard) But as far as best pokemon go I think Lugia wins (Although Ho-oh is beast)... And my favorite pokemon is Arcanine, then Dragonite, then Tyranitar...
 
uhm, I actually hate legendaries, I cant stand them ever. I think they all look ugly except Shaymin.

And my Shaymin was from the Toys R Us event, I had to hide in a corner and do it because there was like 20 3 year olds there. (scary right?)

But my favorite from Gold and Silver? I dont know, I REALLY loved Scyther, Because it had like a 3% chance of being caught REALLY early in the game. Anyone remember that? Where you do a kinda safari zone game and whoever got the biggest pokemon won? Ahh.. good memories... I think i wouldnt be able to beat the game without catching my scyther, I actually caught a shiny of it, I was amazed, 3% chance of finding it, and like a 1/300000000 chance of getting a shiny. To bad i was only 7 and i didn catch it. Figures. >.<
 
I dont believe in a best Pokemon, most people favor their best Pokemon in which is why people say that whatever the Pkmn is, the best Pkmn


:t354:TG
 
For me, legendary wise, id say Ho-oh, didn't really care for lugia after i caught him, but reagular pokemon, Typlosion and Scizor
 
Going purely off stats alone the "best" in GSC is probably one of the legendaries. Possibly Lugia or Suicune. Tyranitar has very good stats as well.

My personal faves from GSC are Espeon and Umbreon, Scizor, Steelix, Kingdra and Donphan. I may well make it my mission to make those 6 into a (Very formidable) team one day.
 
I'm gonna have to go with either Donphan or Houndoom.
Not sure why but I've always liked them.

Legendaries: Uhh it would have to be Lugia definitely.
