    Hmm, I like em both, like Lunatic said, it depends on the quality work on them, if they are going to make them in 2 minutes then they suck, but in the long run, the official real pokemon are better. Their names are not cheesy, and they look cooler. Thats just my opinion though.. :D

  • I say Fakemon!


    ....Because I'm making a fakemon game. XD

    Seriously though, they can be very original. Seeing as how I have 151 Fakemon just based on stuff you see in Hot Topic, it can be tough, but awesome. You also have to find a good spriter (say, Samson?) to do the work, don't go all Quartz and call it good. -.-

  • I voted for original. They're just so much better. They're not messed up anatomy wise and they (usually) look cooler. Fakemon are okay too as long as they are really well done. Fakemon from Smogon's Create a Pkemon are really good. Because they take weeks to make just one. But, original are better.

  • I'm gonna have to say Fakemon, but I'm biased :P
    So long as the Fakemon are good, go for it. An example of a good Fakemon:

    Yeah. :]

    Honestly, I don't care. I'm rather indifferent, really. If a fakemon's good, it's good; if it's bad, it's bad. Sometimes it's better to have the regular Pokémon, and sometimes the biggest appeal is the fakemon. It's a tough decision, and not one I'm going to make.

    Original Pokemon

    Original pokemon can always be good, cause they don't have cheesy names and graphics, but there are few good Fakemons.

  • im not sure if they really count as fakemon, but i think the best are those ones that get a mention at the anime, but not in the games
    like notch ear pichu, crystal onix and pink rhydon

    but they arent that orginal anymore, considering a lot of hacks have them

  • Not a fan of most of the fan made pokemon, but I've seen some really good ones in my time.

    P.S. Is Fakemons gramaticly correct? shouldn't it be Fakemon? like you wouldn't say sheeps, you would say sheep.

  • I voted Fakemon but it honestly depends on quality of sprites. I've seen some fakemon that completely blow away the original pokemon. With a good concept fakemon can be great. At the same time with a bad concept and someone who isn't willing to work on it for lets say an hour at least, then they can be very poor. It depends on concept and the spriter, really.

  • Well, this is the way I see it...

    Original Pkmn > Fakemon > DPPt Pkmn

    :P Sorry, there's about 5 good DPPt Pokemon but the rest look dumb lol

  • It all depends on how good the spriter is. I'd say Fakemon, if you've seen Watertrainer's you would know why.
