3rd Gen What's your favorite 3rd generation Pokémon and why?

[kyuubi93]

I had a lot of fun with Gardevoir.

I know what I said :b hahahhaha but generation 3 was when I had a really strong Gardevoir. It was an ace in battles against my friends at the time.

I also had a Swampert that achieved master rank in the beauty contest.

Pok?mon-wise, Gen 3 is among my favourites, so choosing just one is almost impossible. I really like Gardevoir, Skitty, Abby, Altaria, and Torchic. Oh, and Jirachi and the Latis!

I know that's a long-ish list, but Spheal with it; it was hard enough narrowing it down this much. And yes, that means Spheal can be added to the list as well...

 

[Sytiourious]

Manectric, Flygon, and Camerupt are all in my top 10 favorite pokemon of all time. Even with ORAS, I can't do a playthrough without these three on my team. They're just too precious to me.

Same here, out of all the Pokemon gens, I think Hoenn had the best region as well as the best Pokemon.

My first favorite would have to be Metagross; Second favorite; Cradily; and finally for third; Flygon.

But overall, I love every Pokemon from third gen, I think they had the best designs.

Non-Legendary: Metagross. One of the coolest steel type designs ever. I don't know what's going on with his mega-evolution, though.

Legendary: Deoxys. I absolutely adore the sleek, robotic, DNA-inspired design of this pokemon. The fact that it gets multiple forms and has killer stats is icing on the cake.

 

[sooper-shoopy]

I actually really love Banette. That was my favorite Pokemon as a kid, so much so that I had an extremely cringy OC who used Banette as her main Pokemon. I think it was the way his sprite was drawn - the arm pose made him look very cat-like.

 

[ViolentCharizard14]

Zangoose i just love it and i was obsessed with it.

 

[etchasketch]

My favorite is Flygon, because of its design, but also its typing (I love Ground Pokemon) and its decent stats.

 

[peter McLightning]

I like blaziken because he looks cool and is very powerful same like bitelaserkhalif

 

[SmartypantsGamingYT]

my favourite would be sharpedo for its speed and badass design along with its attack.

 

[PokemonPlushGamer]

My favorite Gen 3 Pokemon is Latias, I find it cute, and I love dragon types.

 

[SquirSaur]

I am always partial to the starters for some reason. My fav is either the Mudkip line or Torchic line

 

[Lysander]

Sharpedo, because it has a great design, a good dual-typing (and better than Crawdaunt in battle imo) and high attack and speed stats. Only downside of it is it's defense. Apart from that, it's a graet Pokemon.

 

[Ninetales]

Beautiflly.

Ever since I was a little kid, I've always had a love for butterflies, which explains my love for this pokemon. They represent transformation, beauty, and resilience. I love Beautifly's design, it's just the cutest thing, and I enjoyed watching May battle with her Beautifly in the anime when I was growing up. To this day, Beautifly is one of my all-time favourite Pokemon.

 

[op swellow]

Favorite pokemon of gen 3, for me is swellow. Flying types were always my favorite ones, but swello has such a nice design, the mix of both of its colors specially. As soon as a I saw a Taillow I knew I would always use it haha.

 

[Janp]

This is hard. Pokemon on this position rotate for me and Slakoth has a honor to call itself my favourite Pokemon at the time. I love sloths and I'm glad they made Pokemon inspired by them and with fitting ability.

Zangoose i just love it and i was obsessed with it.

In Ruby, I always kept a Zangoose on my team ASAP and it was my main champ. Such a cool and useful pokémon, I love it.

Beautiflly.

Do you also like Masquerain? It's not a butterfly perhaps, but similar c: I always kind of thought Beautifly was a weirder version of Butterfree, but more recently I've come to appreciate how very cute Beautifly really is. I still think Masquerain is one of the very most adorable things there is though <3

Other than those, I also like many more, such as Mawile. A very unique and interesting (and cute!) pokémon.
