    Tropius. I have him as my HM slave,
    and I just flat-out hate Staravia.

    Tropius makes a great addition, becuase
    it can learn a variety of moves.

    I use Togekiss for flying mostly, though.

    Well if I could evolve the Staravia then I would pick him. But I would probably choose Tropius.

    Even though Tropius is extremely weak and is super-effective'd by every single conceivable attack, it's still one of my top 10 Pokemon.

    Staravia, on the other hand is just silly.

    Tropius. I love its typing(though Jumpluff is better) and I love its design and attacks.

    Without even thinking, Staravia.

    With thinking,
    Intimidate > Solar Power and Chlorophyll put together
    Normal/Flying > Grass/Flying
    Close Combat > Everything Tropius has

    Meh, but Tropius is good for HM slaving because it can learn a lot of them (Cut, Fly, Strength, Defog, Rock Smash, and I think Rock Climb? :S)

    Staravia if I can get Staraptor. Tropious looks awesome, had one in Ruby. It just gets destroyed to easy. Intimidate comes in handy as well.

    Everyone knows posion/flying is the best. Though i like staraptor cause its the only normal bird to learn close combat.

    Well Staravia/Staraptor is pretty fast, but since Tropius has a bit of the more effective type combination, it's is a bit better.
    I'm not sure though, it's your choice. :3

    They are totally two Pokémon from the opposite characteristics, one it is an exploiter of Sunny Day, the other one is a pure physical sweeper.
