Everybody has a favorite Pokémon/Evolutionary line. Who’s yours, and why?

Mine has to be Totodile! I love the whole evolutionary line, but Totodile is hands-down my favorite Pokémon. My first ever Pokémon games was a copy of Pokémon Gold with a broken internal battery; it couldn’t store save data. On long road trips, my sister and I would pack the GameBoy Colour and Pokémon Gold. We would pass the GameBoy back and forth between stops, getting as far as we could before we had to turn off the GameBoy. Whenever we inevitably had to restart and pick our starter again, Totodile was always my choice. I’ve got lots of great memories from that game, even if we could never save our progress.

Who’s your favorite Pokémon, and what’s the story behind it? First starter, clutch battler, best design?

    Got 2 favourites .

    • Infernape : Mainly due to nostalgia since chimchar was my first starter and I was blown away (at that time) by how cool infernape looks , his stats are really balanced and moveset is also great .
    • Flygon : While I agree that garchomp is better , i still have a soft spot for flygon , I love his design . I wish it could’ve gotten a mega tho :')

      I’m a Turtwig man, myself, but that whole trio is amazing. Probably the last time I have liked all three starter evolutionary lines from start to finish.

      Flygon is a strong choice. It’s definitely among my personal favorites.

        I agree that the whole trio is amazing . Turtwig is a strong choice too (and in my top 10), with woodhammer , earthquake and quick claw he is a beast .
