    Zuruggu or Croagunk?

    *image removed**bulbagarden.net image removed*

    Today we will be taking 2 Fighting Pokemon to the battleground. On the right is Zuruggu (Scraggy) and on the left is Croagunk (Gureggru).

    I prefer Croagunk because he is the most Pokemon-like of the two and I am quite used to him​
     
    Neither. I seriously hate both of them, but i consider Croagunk a bit worse...
     
    Zuruggu is the one for me. It has pants for crying out loud.
     
    I like both of them almost equally, but in the Anime, Zuruggu is one adorable Pokemon with a really appealing personality. Brock's Croagunk was also one of my favourite Pokemon, even though many considered his regular jabbing of Brock a bit boring.

    Stat-wise, Scrafty is a bit better than Toxicroak and Scraggy's type combination is also unique as there is no other Dark/Psychic Pokemon other than it's evolutionary line. Inspite of this, I still love both of them equally. <:
     
    I like Scraggy better than Croagunk, not only because it's a gangster lizard, but also because it has very good offensive STAB.
     
    Scraggy because it's one of my favourite Pokemon of this gen. Croagunk is cool, but the anime made him boring and repetitive.
     
    I grew to like Croagunk a bit when I played Platinum, before then I wasn't fussed about him. However I've loved Zuruggu/Scraggy ever since I laid eyes on him. So that's my vote.
     
    Wow, I never notice that they had similar mouths. xD

    I prefer Croagunk, because he actually has bones. Zuruggu looks like something I drew when I was four years-old. Zuruggu was an interesting concept, just bad execution. I prefer my Pokemon to be at anatomically correct. What saddens me is that Game Freak makes less and less Pokemon like this each generation.
     
    I hated Zuruggu for the longest time and even put it on my list of the worst generation V Pokemon. After looking into though I found out it was based on youth subcultures and that somehow made me extremely interested in it. I just think the idea for it and how they incorporated it into a Pokemon is really creative. The whole concept of it being a lizard and its molted skin being its pants is just so impressive to me for some reason. Plus I think it might also have to do with the fact I once had a lizard as a pet and looking at Zuruggu reminds me of it when it used to molt. :3

    On the other hand Croagunk has always been really creepy and gross looking. D: Not saying I wouldn't use it, but it's definitely towards the bottom of my Pokemon list.
     
    Design-wise, I prefer Croagunk. Typing-wise, I find Zuruggu more interesting. They're both pretty great. :P
     
    No offense to those who like him, but I honestly hate Scraggy... I think he's ugly :< I know he's supposed to an ode to youth culture but he still doesn't appeal to me at all. And I think his pants look dumb.

    I don't like Croagunk but Toxicroak is awesome so he gets my vote!
     
    Neither. Both of their designs suck. I mean pants? On a Pokemon? Really?! And croagunk looks way too... flashy. Colorful... whatever. I say neither. -_-
