How do you even not pay attention the the rules of your own thread, senpai?
Luxray
Diggersby, because I liked its design when I first saw it, loved when I found out it was Ground, was overjoyed when I found out it had Huge power, and then got a Huge Power Diggersby and wrecked everything with it.
gengar
because I like it's design and because its been my bro since red and blue days
Espeon
Been my bro since Gold.
I always liked how it's suposed to be the more natural eeveelution.
>>24573156
How is it more natural?
Both equally
Aggron.

Clefable was close to me because calm mind / stored power set would wreck my friends during the early days of XY. But then I had this dream. This dick Serperior knocked out my Clefable, and I just yelled "NO, CARROT!" and grabbed Clefable my the legs and proceeded to beat the shit out of that Serperior using Clefable as a whack stick. Ever since then I've named my Clefable Carrot.

Not that anon but it doesn't need a stone,evolves through freindship

Beautiful story, Anon.
>>24571308
Jesus christ, didn't even answer the second question of your own faggotry thread.
So is gaybird your bro because its dick fits nicely into your ass, or...?
>>24571308
Lucario
i liked his design,comes from my favorite generation,fighting my favorite typeive liked him since i was a kid but i dont know if hes really my bro anymore but i dont think any other pokemon could take his place
Gengar.
I just usually ended up having one during most of my playthroughs. It's reliable and powerful with a 10/10 design. Also Ghost type is a plus.
>>24571308
Masquerain
from my favorite generation, pre-evo has the most unique typing ive ever seen, and when i played pokemon rumble blast for the first time, i had this incredible masquerain with silver wind that destroyed everyone. instantly became my bro.
This little gremlin right here.
reason being because he was the first pokemon I picked up when I started competitive battling on showdown back in late 5th Gen, and rocketed up the ladder with all the prankster shenanigans he offered. with all the success I've had, I've never taken him off the team in those 3 years.
and his mega only made things better later on, but I still think the prankster set is more fun to use.
too bad swagplay got banned later on, now I have to use confuse ray/foul play, still works tho.
Starter in Emerald
Been transferring him from game to game ever since
In gen 1 it was scyther, gen 2 it was scizor. Now there's a mega. He's only become more awesome over the years.
Liked his debut in the anime. A strong yet easy-gong happy-go-lucky beetle. IRL Beetle are beautiful and this guy protrayed them well.
And then, when I catched one of them after headbutting some trees in Azalea back in Crystal, I put him inmediatly in the team.
When that thing with just even Tackle (Compared against other mons) deals a lot of damage I was awestruck. Then Megahorn happens.
In RSE I looked for him a lot, and when I found it in the Safari Zone and with just Brick Break (In that era that was a reliable attack) was able to just punch holes against everything... And that Megahorn animation. For those years, that animation was the definition of brutal... And Heracross was still with just a happy face.
Honorary mention to Arcanine. And lately, to Hydreigon.
aromatisse is a poofy berd
Because he's been my starter since Sinnoh and my favorite design. I like how he's still very much viable even after two generations of being loaded with power creep.
I like how much of a tank he can be while still chunking out damage.
Been my bro for a long time. I remember finding him in gen 3 safari and thinking "woah" caught him. He looked like a badass and had a rough and tough move set of fighting moves. He was cool. I leveled him up and tore ass.
Then later I felt an odd connection to pinsir because he was unappreciated and over shadowed by heracross despite that fact that he was cool, which I relate to I guess.
>>24575021
I'm not too fond of Pinsir myself, but I like to think that all three Mega Bugs have a Sentai or Kamen Raider-like show in the Pokéworld.
Electavire and Blastoise. They were both on my team in Red, then in Fire Red and I transferred them over the years. Little tough deciding whether or not I wanted to evolve my Electabuzz but it was the right choice.
>>24575038
>tfw when GF didn't give a shit about him for 5 gens
>they finally gave him the love he deserved and made him a near unstoppable kill machine
>for some reason gave him a special attack boost but it's okay
>Mega mence comes out
>Mega mence outclasses him in almost every single way
I'm beyond mad.
Cool picture though.
>>24575153
blame talonflame not mega mence
>>24573802
Too bad he'll never be as good as Blaziken. Heh. Swampert is the worst starter.
>>24576479
both of them make pinsir obceslete but the thing about talonflame is that it can't break through pokemon like pinsir can.Espeed when
My oldest transferable Pokemon. It has 10/10 aesthetics, great stats and a fun movepool. Plus, that amazing bassy cry. What's not to love?
>>24576581
Great taste
>>24578281
>Chikortria is the worst starter
fite me
>>24571308
Metagross
>cool af design
>pseudo-legendary
>mega evolution
What is there not to like about it?
>>24576530
>Tank
>Has immunity to Electric Pokemon
>Has only one weakness
>Worst
First: Chikortria is the worst starter, get your facts straight.
Second: My bro Swampert, would murder your Blaziken, no matter how fast it is.
Slurpuff. I've been around since Gen I, but somehow this guy got me the moment I saw him. Kinda hideous, but kinda perfect, and a cake. I can't explain it, but he's my bro.
>>24578311
>comparing Swampert to Chikorita to try and make it look good
Hahaha! You Swampertfags are truly, truly pathetic! Enjoy dying to a leaf, faggot!
Pic related was the first trade evolution I ever got, and he's pulled through for me when I needed him. His design and strength is also a plus.
>>24578345
Blaziken is the best Fighting-type though. Machamp sucks.
30% Gurren Lagann, 30% useful mega evolution, 40% design and nostalgia.
I used this nigga in my Heartgold nuzlocke and he was my best. Now he's my best in my U-Turn team.
>>24578344
>implying I was comparing Swampert to Chikorita
At least my bro isn't an overrated, over-hyped, pokemon, that is responsible for a trend of starter pokemon with an unoriginal typing that makes /vp/ groan in exasperation, you egotistical Blazikenfag. And as for it's Grass weakness. At least Swampert has coverage.
>>24578392
>Blaziken
>overrated
No it's not. Blaziken isn't even playable in Smash.
>>24578398
No, but it's in Pokken Tournament, and you get it's mega stone 1 year early. Plus, do you know how much fanart it gets, or how it was used in gen 5?
>>24578311
252- SpA Choice Specs Blaziken Hidden Power Grass vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Mega Swampert: 292-344 (85.6 - 100.8%) -- 6.3% chance to OHKO
its not like M/Blaziken will stay in anyway
M Swampert needs rain to Sweep and has no set up moves besides curse and PuP which are not worth itSwampert will always be second to mewise
>>24578527
>its not like M/Blaziken will stay in anyway
Same can be said for Swampert. Also, does your Blaziken have HP Grass? If not, then all it has is Solarbeam, which in the time it will take for it to set up, it will already be knocked out. Like how M/Swampert needs rain, M/Blaziken needs sunlight in order to succcessfully OHKO M/Swampert. And as I said before, M/Swampert is a TANK, meaning he is capable of taking hits. He is not meant to be a sweeper.
I'm not saying Blaziken is shit, I'm saying Swampert isn't the worst.
>>24579783
Who said swampetd worst thats sceptile
With out HA pert takes the cake but thanks to speed boost blaziken remains the best
Also i dont and no one should run HP Grass on Blaziken
Just seeing which move could OHko without charging
Jolteon and Ariados
My two Pokébros.
>>24579925
But its true Sceptles the worst of the 3 in Usage competitive and Design and always was
>>24579896
>Sceptile
>worst
No
>>24571308 (OP)
Mine is Charizard. Chose him in Leafgreen, and he's been a team favorite ever since. So many memories.
>>24579896
>Who said swampetd worst thats sceptile! >>24576530
And as I said before, Swampert is a TANK! Speed Boost doesn't matter, so long as Swampert has enough energy to do damage. Also, why should nobody run HP Grass on Blaziken? It's got good Sp.Atk., and it would provide Blaziken coverage without the expense of charging. A sweeper needs coverage.
>>24579994
Because high jump kick 2 hit Ko any thing 4x weak to grass
>>24579997
With Blaziken's poor Def./Sp.def. any SE move could OHKO M/Blaziken, especially M/Swampert, who's base ATK. is 150.
>>24579994
>tank
>worse bulk than garchomp, that isn't known for bulk
>>24580062
Well, that's how everybody else uses Swampert.
>>24580048
thats true but that still means mega swamp isnt a switch in to it
>>24579941
Sceptile's better than Swampert in OU at the moment, so, not really. Sceptile was also better than Blaziken until Speed Boost happened.
Poison combat frog.
>Toxic finger-blades make my edgy inner child squee
>Muay Thai is one of my favorite martial arts
>Poison dart frog is best frog
>Fun movepool, access to Dry Skin
>Awesome cry
>Best in-battle model in gen 6
He just looks like a Pokemon I want to hang out and train with all day
>>24578366
No one asked. And come back when your bro won a vgc competition
>>24580678
>getting this buttblasted
>y-you only can like a pokemon when it has won a championship
ayy
>>24580691
Nobody claimed you can only like a pokemon that won a championship. But you claiming a pokemon is best without backing it up and shitting on another? Son
>>24580691
>buttblasted
you're the one that went "mine's better" unprovoked, then go into defensive greentext when he points out his has done better competitively.
>>24580709
>you're
now you're assuming that I'm him, pretty pathetic
How about calm down before you get a heart attack over sperging over couple pixels
>>24580732
so you're getting butthurt on someone's behalf? that's not better.
Charizard was my starter back a Pokemon Red.
I think it is cute. As a fire type, it is great for cuddling too.
>>24580761
me mocking you over
>No one asked. And come back when your bro won a vgc competition
isn't really butthurt though, it's kinda other way around :^)
get a life nerd
>>24580772
greentexting instead of refuting the point is a hallmark of butthurt, newfriend.
>>24579994
Sceptile may be the worst out of the Hoenn starters, competitively, but it isn't the least popular overall. Swampert has had almost no screentime in the anime at all while Sceptile had a major role as one of Ash's powerhouses and is appearing in the upcoming XY&Z season.
Simisage is my bro. I loved it when I first saw his sprite in Black 1 because of his pose and hair.
Now he's in most my teams.
>>24581217
I didn't say that.
Shiny Hawlucha I caught in Y.
Always been a wrestling fan, and I love the little guy
In my first play-through of Ruby I lost 5 of my 6 pokémon without hardly scratching any of Norman's. The last one of mine standing was my Gardevoir which somehow pulled off the then seemingly impossible and single handedly swept his team. Ever since I've tried to fit it in my team whenever I play casually and have room for it, but I hate to admit doing so because people just take me for a waifu fag.
As for competitive play, I gotta say it has to be Porygon-Z & Avalugg. They've always done so well on my teams and are both such fun pokémon to use. I owe a lot of success in Battle Spot to them.

I really fucking loved Flaaffy when it was first revealed. I made it a point to make it my ace the first time I played Silver version. Eventually I gave into the temptation of evolving it and have loved Ampharos ever since.
Rotom is my favorite color, it's two of my three favorite typesor all three if you count forms, and it has a cute design and a nice gimmick. I couldn't NOT love it.
Golurk is just everything I ever wanted in a Pokemon since I was a kid. The same way some people's childhood wishes of a t-rex Pokemon got fulfilled through Tyrantrum, I always wanted a giant automaton Pokemon. The fact that it's ghost type is a nice bonus.
>>24581936
>Always been a wrestling fan
Hawlucha is a luchador not a wrestler, faggot.
>>24582492
Lucha Enmascarada can only be translated as Masked Wrestling.
Source tu puta madre gringo pendejo.
My old one is Nidoking from back in Yellow days, but my all-time favourite is Ditto. Caught one in Cerulean Cave in LG, ported it up to Plat, literally used Transform+Quick Powder Dittobro every day as my ace. Blew a load when I found out about the Rage glitch, then Gen V brought Imposter so I could use my bro online
Second all-time fave is Scizor, bought into the Technician Burrito hype in Gen IV and he's been with me ever since. Loved the design in prior gens but he was unavailable to me due to lack of trading at the time, and I doubt I would've bothered because shit ingame with a boring ability in Swarm
>>24580062
>Tank Klefki
>worse bulk than Garchomp, that isn't known for bulk
>51 base HP
>never fucking dies
When I was a kid, everyone on the playground was going on about how great their favorite Pokemon was, but there were very few of them who could keep up with Dragonite. Finally evolving Dragonair was also a great feeling, as I was an impatient kid, so lvl 55 seemed so far away.
>>24584296
>superior typing
>Priority to change a weakness to immunity
A little different to chomp
I love my big smelly sludge monster and gay dinosaur. They are the best companions ever. i didnt always like them, but i realized over time that they speak to me in some way that i still to this day dont quite understand.
>>24584892
Probably because you're gay and smelly.
>>24584904
no bully, anon =(
I love the concept. It's of my favourite type too.
Honestly, there's no exact reason. I just like the design and concept. It has a kickass mega too.
Salamence. After I caught bagon in Emerald, I breeded him with Gyardos to get a Salamence with Hydro Pump and Dragon Dance.
Sapphire was my first Pokemon game. This was my starter, aka, my very first Pokemon.
My second Pokemon game was PMD: Red Rescue Team. The personality test made me play as Treecko.
In Explorers of Sky, I once again got Treecko. And I think everyone knows what kind of role Grovyle had in that game.
I have a huge connection to the Treecko line.
