What is/was /r9k/s favorite pokemon
I was always a big raichu fan, but I never really was into pokemon past the origional generation
How bout you?
>in b4 arcanine
Raichu is one of my favorites too. I also like Bulbasaur a lot. I actually have a google images tab of bulbasaur pictures right now.
>>27116920
I always loved this cuddly and OP dragon.
Porygon
I dont know if I have a specific favorite but these niggas the best starters for sure
First Pokemon I trained to level 100.
>>27116983
Bulbasaur is pretty cool, but he's the pleb starter out of the three
>>27117016
>tfw you finally level dratini up enough to have a dragonite and wreck shit
Blastoise
I have up once gf introduced thickfat stupid shit.
Venasuar and charizard Y now stomps blastoise. Its unfair and retarded how much work I need to put in to destroy those pokemon.
Blastoise deserves she'll smash and a half steel typing he would steamroll like the other 2. Mega launcher is also gay as fuck
any water type really
I always wanted this little fucker right here as a pet.
>>27117085
I thought Blastoise got a mega upgrade as well?
Idk anon I haven't played these games in a decade
>>27116920
I've always really liked lewdduck.
>>27117603
Yea and the mega evolution is shit
Charizard got 2 evolutions and the Y version is a monster with the special attack
Venasaur got thick fat which lets him eat damage from both Blastoise and charizard
Blastoise got mega launcher And it's fucking useless. You can take down charizard X quickly with a dragon pulse but only retards use that diseases anyway
I've given up on the games after blastoise's exile. I just peek in and see what's new now
If they just give Blastoise shell smash or a half steel typing he would be a force to be reckoned with.
one of those 2
Always liked gyarados and kadabra. Never could get an alakazam because didnt have friends to trade it and make it evolve.
My favorite Pokemon is Chikorita.
Kabutops was cool. Fossil pokemon in general are cool.
>>27118109
As an origionalgenerationfag vaporeon was my favorite of the bunch
That hp tho...
I was never into Pokemon, my parents didn't like that it taught kids that things evolved. Once I was old enough, I watched it. It really is anti-Christian propaganda. That being said,squirtle.
>in b4 arcanine
what is this meme? Arcanine is my favorite
zuruzukin
>>27118298
>tfw no alakazam, gengar, or golem because no friends
I'm just trying to repost with the picture robot, relax
>>27118490
>r9k
>are nine kay
>ar kay nine
>arcanine
Most likely the piplup evo line or flareon
>>27116920
Wew ajehsjc
>>27118517
ah
well hes still my favorite, the only true legendary pokemon
>>27118490

>>27117593
>>27118333
good taste
I've always loved Primeape.
>>27118534
He really is a majestic beast tho
>>27116920
>Raichu
Great taste friendo.
Raichu is underrated as fuck.
>implying Tyranitar is a T-rex
Espeon. Yes it's another Eeveelution but I love that guy.
>tfw Magic Bounce made him relevant to the metagame
>>27118577
>implying Charizard is a dragon
>>27118637
Well it is now

REEEEEEEEEEEEE
Milotic
A qt pretty decent pokemon and you need to basically be autistic to actually catch a Feebas
Onix as I always wondered what eating one would be like and it would be cute
i don't even like 3rd gen but i love mawile
>>27118760
>Feebas
>Never could cath one when I had Ruby
>10+ years later

How the fuck was I to know that? Who the fuck thought of that? And what were they on to able to say "this is fine"?

>>27118726
I know I would if I got free kissies from that little fluid druid.
>>27118906
It added some rarity, which I guess is completely pointless with online trading
It also felt great when you finally got one
Top ghost type in Gen 1, bretty gud.
>>27116920
corsola is cute
i want to hug it
>>27118999
gengar and it's evolutions were the ONLY ghosts in gen 1
>>27118913
oh yeah what's so good about 3rd gen then
>>27119038

>>27119038
are you one of those

Pikachu #025
There's a lot that I really like but Totodile would have to be my absolute favorite
>>27119089
>doesnt re-use pokemon from previous generations
>tentacool is on 50% of the map
>>27119439
oh i couldve sworn you need the national dex to see old mons. i may be remembering it wrong
i always liked when pokemon games introduced an entirely new pokedex so you didnt have to see the same pokemon over and over.
>>27119479
the water aint a meme either, there's fucking nothing breaking it up.
Not to mention Zigzagoon is pretty much everywhere with grass, and Wingull is just plain everywhere.
sandslash was my favorite for a long time. Used to keep one in my main party with slash
crits all over the place
>>27119507
i never thought the water was that bad. i personally really enjoy the hoenn region. its comfy. i can see how zigzagoons and wingulls could get annoying but every pokemon game has some pokemon that you see everywhere so its not like thats exclusive to gen 3.
>>27119577
OP here
Sandslash is probably my second favorite
Who /spoon mustache/ here?
call me a faggot, but oshawott master race
>>27119648
literally had several kadabra lvl 100s across my pokemon careerno friends life
>>27119159
In comparison to others it is shit
It takes too much setup to stomp with blastbro and I'm Not going to degrade it by using it just for rapid spin. That's fucking disgraceful
My talonflame galvantula and Blastoise combo has been amazing though. Water spout is the best
Lapras a best.
Also great

He was the only pokemon in the anime who stood up for himself, refusing to be a buttslave to those filthy humans.

absol, espeon and metagross

What about pikachu bro?
Who /Always Picks Water Starter/ Here?

This stupid motherfucker.

I loved this guy

this is how I know you are bad at pokemon
>>27117078
>bulbasaur line
>bad
>dratini evolving into dragonite
>not dragonair
>>27121173
Dude, why would I need a grass pokemon? They're everywhere. Fire is more rare so I go with the best
>>27121361
Obviously he evolves into dragonair first, but he evolves into dragonite after is when it really pays off and what you've working towards the whole time
underrated waifu pokemon
>>27121416
>really pays off wasting time on most boring dragon
>>27116920
Most of the psychic pokemon. Its hard to narrow down to one.
>>27121893
Not that hard. God like pokemon design and, for many, surprisingly from the latest gen. gen 5 and 6 were gold mines for potential favorite pokemon that im surprised not to see here.
Alakazam is god-tier Pokemon.
But competitive I love me some shuckle.
I have one named nicknamed Gilligan
idk why but I've always liked normal types. Especially Snorlax and Slaking. I played through the elite four in ruby with only normal types. I know that isn't impressive but it shows how autistic I am.
>>27117552
>not saying politoed is not the best water type.
Not naming him Slippytoad is a sin.
>>27122029
Because we aren't on a vidya board anon. There's a vast majority of genwun shitters here.
They don't know any of the based as fuck designs 4, 5, and 6 gave us.
>>27116920
I would fuck one if they existed irl desu senpai.
In the anime one of them wanted Ash's cock if I remember correctly.
I used to fuck shit up with this guy back in the day, even though he is not that good.

I will destroy anyone ITT in an X/Y battle.
Monotype or not.
Why has no one posted this beast?
>>27122592
show me your team
>>27122608
nobody else is into bestiality
>>27122620
I have a box + party full of battle ready Pokemon. I have 3 monotype teams I could make.
But if you want to battle why would I show you my team before hand? So you can construct the perfect counter team?
>>27122640
>what is team preview
>>27122651
But that's when we both have our teams made. You can't re-choose
Common. Have some pokesense
>>27122660
I'll show you mine if you show me yours~I need to know if I should bother adding you, or if you're just going to be some kiddy ass homo with a team full of Ubers
>>27122681
Never. I don't have any ubers.
We can do smogon but I feel it's boring using only one tier. Mainly I don't want to battle a sleep spammer, kangeskhan faggela, etc.
Monotype is also fun. I can do water, ghost, or ground.
>>27117078
>bulbasaur
>pleb starter
Its name is charmander and it is the best according to everyone who only played red when they were 6
>>27122695
Just whatever your multi type normal team is then.
I haven't got anything ready for monotype stuff.
>>27116920
Mine was Caterpie because it was the first one whose name I learned (I got into Pokemon via the anime and the first episode I watched was the third one of the series. Pikachu's name was initially just too foreign to me). Bulbasaur, Ivysaur and Venusaur were later my favorites, too. I was into Pokemon still for some time during Generation 2 but always preferred the original one.
>>27122721
I made a typo in my FC, sorry.
8758* not 8757
ma boi heracross
the forgotten one of generation 2
keep headbuttin trees you motherfucker
Ampharos, Sceptile, Gardevoir, or Flygon desu
>tfw miss playing Pokemon so much
I just can't do it anymore.
>>27116920
I choose debiruman
But honestly I like hydreigon, because then I can pretend that it's king ghidorah
>>27122721
K. Singles then. Unless you offer doubles then I'll switch teams.
Pic related is the singles team I'll use.
>>27122805
There's my Battle box senpai
>>27122855
You ou bastard.
Tempted to switch teams. But whatever.
2981-7896-8986

You're right. My bad.
Any of these. Yes I started with gen 3.
>>27122934
Very nice anon, you weren't kidding about kicking ass.
>>27122970
G motherfuckkng g
I'm a poke god. What can I say?
>>27123054
Azumarill is over powered. I only use her to show dominance.
Free Pokemon for you.
>>27123062
I can't show some of my shinies cause they're holding ORAS items sorry
>>27123099
Lame. I just showed you one of my two boxes of battle Pokemon.
>>27122989
You have to be 18 to post here, son.
>>27123113
Very nice man.
This is a big wakeup call that I need to stop ignoring IVs.
>>27123121
Yupp. I have a six iv ditto shiny ditto so that helps. Also breeding is monotonous and seemingly endless.
all my Pokemon are bred by me, proper nature, proper iv, ev trained, in a regular pokeball, and nicknamed.
>>27123139
Mine are bred by me and all EV trained with proper natures, but I haven't made an effort at all with IVs yet.
How do I make an Azumarill like that?
gyarados master race here
>>27123159
That azumarill was a bitch to breed because of the egg moves. I'll make one for you right now.
I'll hatch five eggs and give you the one with the ability and best iv.
>>27123182
For real? thank you so much anon.
>>27123197
Here's my second box. Let me know if you need another. It's super easy. Maybe not 5/6 iv. But close.
>>27123215
A new Gardevoir or Greninja would be pretty cool if that's okay.
>>27123197
And here's the box I already showed you.
>>27123228
5 iv Marill first try. Egg moved and ability
5 iv froakie on the second egg same as above.
>>27123367
thank you very very much
you don't want a deoxys or anything though?
>>27123384
Nah. I only care about battle pokes. Legends are useless.
Unless you have or can get a hidden ability zubat.
>>27123401
I don't have any right now sorry.
It's possible to get one from horde battles though, but I can't remember if they appear in any gen 6 game in hordes.
>>27123401
Oh yeah, what EVs should I be giving the Marill?
>>27123413
Yeah but it's hard and annoying. I'd rather trade for it. I'm fine with the amount of Pokemon I have. I just want to have two boxes, the battle box, and my party full of battle pokes. That's 72.
>>27116920
Nidoking faggots
>>27123430
Look on smogon. I believe it's speed and hp. But I'd look there. If you don't care about smogon tiers I'd do that because you max attack with belly drum so all you need is speed and Hp.
>>27123449
Yeah. It's got 92HP 252Atk 164Spe. So I'll probably stick with that.
Once again thank you very very much.
We should play again some time soon.
>>27123468
Yeah. They do countless battles to see.
I'm working on that grardevior.
Let me know now if you need another poke or two. I don't usually play much anymore and I'm bored so I don't mind.
>>27123485
What you've already given me is more than enough anon.
If you've got any Mareep that'd be wonderful though.
>>27123510
I really don't mind and I doubt you'd get another opportunity. I also don't see why you want me to remake your pokes when you could get a amazing sableye or something else.
It's up to you.
I also have that shiny 6 iv contrary serperior if you want that.
>>27123524
Nah that's okay, you keep that.
>>27123551
Alright I guess. Almost done with that ralts. Let me know nigga.
>>27123571
Just the ralts is fine, and if you have any ready to go a Mareep. Otherwise that's all.
>>27123588
Mind boggling that you don't want free 5 iv Pokemon.
I'm making you a sableye because he's a fucking God.
>>27123598
Fiiiine. If you insist.
I don't wanna take up too much of your time though.
>>27123600
I accidentally took too long of a nap so I'm just sitting in bed getting high listening to a podcast. I don't mind.
Plus it's only taking two eggs to get them so it's easy. The going back and forth is the annoying part.
Best Sinnoh Starter
>but muh electricity/poison invincibility evos
If you picked a grass/ground type or a water type pokemon for a region that's knee deep in ice types, you are literally retarded.
i generally like the gen1 bug types
i like this nicca, butterfree, pinsir. its just too bad that they were shit in the games tho
Blaziken best starter.
>>27118619
more like ASPIEon
>>27123651
Pinsir got a lot better with it's mega form and venomoth is less shit
>>27123630
Empoleon was also a steel type which just meant it had resistances from water/ice doubled AND had stab supereffective against ice types
also, it looks cooler
>>27122465
nigga got klinefelter's syndrome lmao
>>27122805
isn't metagross an uber?
>>27123749
Metagross is OU with mega, UU without.
>>27123600
K. So the sableye takes forever to hatch.
The setup he needs requires no special attsck or physical attack. So 3 iv is fine.
Sableye 3 iv hp defense and speed.
Mental herb
Prankster
-taunt
-wil-o-whisp
-foul play
-recover.
I'd do 252hp 252 sp defense 4 speed
anyone play pokemmo here?
>>27123770
Thanks again.
I'll definitely use the shit out of it, I promise.
>>27123785
use showdown
>>27123790
It's a great doubles support poke.
Whisp cuts attain in half. Taunt with prankster is great for crobat and other fast support poke.
Foul play uses the original attack of the other Pokemon even when they're burned.
>>27123806
Thanks anon, I didn't realize the trade hadn't gone through.
>>27122542
This.
I had lugia as a waifu and now rayquaza is my husbandi
>>27123699
i stopped playing around 2004 though. the games aren't really good games, atleast not good enough to release the same game witha a few years in between over and over. so the only reason for me to bother is to revisit memories.
I just started playing Alpha Sapphire tonight. I love the searching/sneaking feature. I hope they keep that in all future games.

Are you a buttmad Xatufag?
This pic is relevant right?
Mine was Raichu too op, i had a little teddy of him when i was young and hated how pikachu supposedly disliked you if you evolved him in yellow

>>27123946
please elaborate
what are major differences between ruby/sapphire and the newest generation of games
>Couldn't afford Pokemon cards as a kid
>Had to buy knock off version
>The only cards I could afford were hand drawn rip offs put together by my local Vietnamese shopkeeper
>He literally had his friends draw them
>Came in packs of 10
>Only about 30 different 'pokemon' available to collect
>Most common was 'Horseamoo' which was half horse half cow and had a lightning bolt tattoo
>Other ones were 'Bubbled Brick' which was a pile of bricks in a swimming pool with eyes and 'Leafy Greens' which was literally not even a card, just a fake plastic leaf with '50 HP' written on the top and the name of the character as well
>couldn't play with my friends
>pretended they were real pokemon
>when I finally got older and couldn't afford to buy a Pokemon videogame named my first Pokemon Leafy Greens
>>27123806
GG anon. I'd better be going to bed now though. It's almost 1am here.
>>27124031
Alright m8 till next time.
The other 5
>arcanine
>sandslash
>houndoom
>geodude
>diglett
>>27124014
New types, new pokemon of course, more moves and metas, they probably changed some moves like they did with crunch but I don't know
Also, megas
>>27124138
that's all appending a bit of content to stuff that was already in the games. while it's "new", it's not conceptually new, just slightly altered old stuff.
>>27124213
Well, what else can you change on pokemon?
Those are the major differences. The games are on shit 3d graphics now, there is global in game trade and battling...
Crystal got me through some shit as a kid, first time I really bonded with a pokebro.
Heartgold/Soulsilver were amazing for me also, took Totodile and named him the same thing, Rusty.
Unironically Charizard.
>>27124298
unironically gay
This motherfucker kicked so much ass in Red/Blue
I usually dislike grass types but Jumpluff is my friend.
Torterra, along with most grass types.
>tfw can't get into Pokemon when I try to replay them
I know they're simple games made for kids, but damn, I was really hoping I could enjoy them still
>>27124379
First time I see someone whose favorite is jumpluff too.
>>27116920
This guy right here. Hariyama is a close second.
>>27124912
>forgot pic
>fucking stupid ass robot, just let me post
>>27118906
They did something like that in gen too. I tried to catch a dragtini. I went to all the lake in the safari zone. By random chance I started fishing a few tiles over and got left I got like 3 encounter. I moved came back to the spot and got another one
The only right choice
I have always only liked this one. Cannot think of any other which have left a lasting impression.
>>27123651
I got wreck by that thing the first time I fought it
I'm a huge fan of all the Porygon evolutions and the little guy himself. All of them are super cute imo. Doesn't help I'm kind of into computers.
Fucking boss.
this thread is still up? cool
>>27116920
I'm with you with Raichu. Everybody acts like Pikachu is the underdog but he gets way more support and love. Raichu gets shit on for no reason other than that he decided to grow up and get stronger. He's also got an adorable design, Raichu would be cool pets.
>>27122697
If you need a grass starter to get through the first couple of gyms you're a pleb and you're doing it all wrong
Charmander is based
I want to cuddle a raichu
>>27123232
I'll take that breloom fammu
>>27116920
Mine was literally Arcanine, 2nd place going to azumarill and 3rd Brobat
>>27130612
oh and 4th Leafeon
>>27117072
Nidoking is my favorite as well. Ground and poison type that could literally learn every move but Fly. It could swim, shoot ice beams, learn all the punches, etc. Jack of all trades, master of everything.
King with a Queen. Something I wish I could also have.
He always made me laugh.
he was like ash's stepdad
