[Sword & Shield] What's your favorite gen 8 Pokémon?

Hmm...either Sinistea or Eternatus, I think. I like the former because it's pretty damn cute - the naming is clever and it reminds me of Chip from Beauty and the Beast only without the excessively obnoxious voice that made me hate Chip as a character, haha - and I like the latter because it's a futuristic neon skeletal dragon thing and even if it has one of the worst alternate forms imaginable the base form is pretty awesome.
 
Either Galarian Rapidash or Obstagoon for me: Obstagoon is such a badass design and they've made one of the most forgettable rodents for me one of my favourite Pokemon and Galarian Ponyta and Rapidash fit with my vibe so much I just adore them :3 (just realised both of them are basically either side of my personality LMAO)
 
I'd say Falinks. Soft spot for Cinderace just because of the football theme too.
 
Right now, it's kind of a three-way tie among Indeedee, Falinks, and Dracovish.

Something about Indeedee's design just kinda clicks. I like its color scheme and its horns.
Falinks is also a really neat spin on a Fighting-type and it's pretty cute too.
Dracovish is...weird. And that's exactly what I love about it.
 
Well, Galarian Rapidash became my top favorite Pokemon altogether. I was worried that GF would somehow mess up Galarian Rapidash by overdesigning, but what resulted was actually great. I know a lot of people wanted an alicorn evolution, but I'm perfectly fine with Galarian Rapidash as it is.

We definitely need a pegasus Pokemon, though!

For entirely new Pokemon, I love Zacian. Zamazenta is great, too, but I really adore Zacian. These are probably my top favorite legendaries.
 
I absolutely adore Corviknight. It's became my second favorite Pokémon. I like the design, and seeing it on the mini series from Pokémon: Twilight Wings made me fall in love with it even more.
 
My favourite Gen 8 Pokemon are Inteleon, Corviknight, Eldegoss, Centiskorch, Coalossal, Toxtricity, Flapple, Barraskewda, Grapploct, Grimmsnarl, Polteageist, Copperajah, Alcremie, Obstagoon, Sirfetch'd, Perrserker, Cursola, Dragapult, and Regieleki.

Aside from them, I also like Cinderace, Orbeetle, Drednaw, Sandaconda, Hatterene, Runerigus, Falinks, Eiscue, Indeedee, Dracozolt, Duraludon, Eternatus, Glastrier, and Regidrago.
