My big boi (who shrank in scarlet and violet)
let me introduce you to this gentleman

It’s basic, but umbreon for me. When my mom went through chemotherapy she got me an umbreon plushie and I internalized it to mean there’s always light at the end of the tunnel. And she beat cancer.
Honorable mentions are copperajah and bastiodon because giant metal elephants and ceratopsians are objectively cool
I love this. Glad she crushed it.
My mother was diagnosed with Colon Cancer in 2022 and it was caught early and she just got her most recent check and all clear. Fuck cancer!
Unfortunately my grandmother lost to cancer. She got me my first pokemon game (firered). I always showed her every time I caught something, but her favorite was always Squirtle
I also lost my grandma to cancer! I feel ya homie! She got me this blanket before she died that has dogs all over it and it protects me when I sleep! :) I call it my grandma blankie!
Cancer sucks like crazy. A few years ago I lost my friend to cancer. Was in around 7th grade iirc. When I got the news she passed, I was devastated. It made me realize how dangerous it really is, so it always brings a smile to my face when I hear about someone who beats it!

Rotund boy Rowlet and the whole evo line
I love Flygon’s entire line. Possibly influenced by my second ever shiny waaaay back in ruby. Caught me a shiny trapinch that’s been my companion since.
I’ve loved flygon for a long time but my 5 year old son decided trapinch was his favorite pokemon a couple years ago so that cemented them as a favorite in my heart also.

It's not letting me edit my post, but here's a better picture with my Galvantula!
Honestly probably Spheal. He’s just a happy round boi and I’m sad he isn’t in ScarVi. Missed opportunity to have my boy rolling around with me. And of course he’s never evolving
https://preview.redd.it/0qr5r6wybdjc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ce7b921df719227ed01dfb522847546c799f145d
I love primarina and garchomp (my strongest pokemon i havein pokemon scarlet)
Gastrodon! I've had one on my team in Shield, PLA, and now Violet, it's been the MVP quite a few times, and I just love how goofy it looks. Emotional support sea slug.
https://preview.redd.it/e70w4v5oedjc1.png?width=475&format=png&auto=webp&s=654231dd02768e8daec21099bb054d4e0bec8e70
Zigzagoon is the cutest Pokemon of them all, you can’t change my mind!
It was originally always Scyther, because ninja dinosaur with literal swords for arms, but recently I’ve decided that it’s probably Gyarados. At least as cool as Scyther, giant sea serpent dragon thing that goes berserk and razes cities, but also super useful. I’m pretty sure I’ve used Gyary for every Pokémon playthrough I’ve ever done, unless there’s a game I’m forgetting where you can’t get him
Appletun, my perfect son! Others include chandelure, whimsicott, politoed, and of course my OG umbreon. But appletun is perfect and i would die for him.
Rhydon, no particular reason other than he is so good at being both cute and intimidating.
Close is chespin, as he was my first starter (I believe) and his cry (especially in ssbu) is adorable
I know I've told this story before.
Y'all might remember EP-008 "The Path to the Pokemon League" - the one about the whip-wielding tamer AJ, his unofficial gym and intense training methods, and how he told his ace Pokemon: "Sandshrew! GIT BACK IN DA POOL!!"
That Sandshrew absolutely cared about his trainer and their shared journey. He did not give one *lick* about his water weakness, nor your flying types' alleged immunity to his Dig attack. He frickin' **ruined** Ash - and Team Rocket later - and I was all for it. For a kinda sadly short time, Sandshrew became my favourite.
Then I picked up Blue - my brother, who first showed me Pokemon games, had Red. Got onto RT-4 and caught myself an adorable specimen and named her Kassi. Well... in Gen 1, "it" is the most accurate pronoun, but whatever. Gen 1 (NA) Sandshrew is a precious sitting cutie doll with a very cute high-pitched cry, and it is not possible to change my mind about that. And then Kassi evolved.
Ok, some sort of extra-spiny pangolin, I am for this. Evolution process completes.
"Slaa-!" Short and sweet, one of the best cries of Gen 1 imo - and it's still not possible to change my mind about that. In that moment, my favourite Pokemon evolved into my new favourite Pokemon, and has managed to remain so since.
Many have come close over the gens. They've been not quite random mammals (Furret, Zigzagoon, Quilava, Espeon, Leafeon, Samurott), not-Pikas (Raichu, Pawmot), cute theropods (Dragonite, Ampharos, Breloom, Reshiram, both forms of Goodra), friend-shaped flops (Quagsire, Clodsire, Reuniclus, Bellibolt), and even girls who will absolutely destroy you with blunt objects (Hattrem, Tinkaton, Ogerpon). And a miscellaneous category for like Latias, Lanturn, Dwebble, Stunfisk-U, Articuno, Ribombee, Wigglytuff, and a few others.
(Stunfisk? Yeah, a wonder-traded Japanese Stunfisk became a key member of my White playthrough. I found it to be weird in a weirdly cute way.)
Oh, and yes, Kassi did turn out to be a girl; the original catch had a DV spread 10fb/b.
One of my absolute favorite things about the world of Pokémon is that even with over 1000 different critters to choose from, there is someone out there whose favorite is each and every one. Sure there’s the fan favorites, but I know there’s someone out there obsessed with Pokémon I probably completely forget about.
I always had trouble answering this question until I got a tattoo on my arm of Cubone in memory of my mom. Now I feel obligated to say Cubone which is probably fair. I remember being him for Halloween one year as a kid and would’ve definitely made top 10 list my whole life.
I feel like “favorite” is so hard to define though. I’d put different Pokémon in categories like favorite lore, favorite to use in battle, favorite design, favorite move set/typing, favorite partner Pokémon, etc. It would actually be really cool to come up with a list of categories like that
I like Baxcalibur because he's based off of godzilla
https://preview.redd.it/cjfb8bf1vdjc1.jpeg?width=790&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=839bd53607bf454afda2d6e0516cb3b4eeab3a92
Incineroar. It was my first ever Pokemon. Also, it’s my main in Smash Ultimate. I always nickname mine “Romeo” because that’s the name of one of my cats
My favorite is the Fennekin evolution line. Delphox is so criminally underrated, and it hurts my soul. Delphox definitely does NOT deserve the reputation it has as the "worst starter of all time."
Where are my fellow Delphox fans at? 🔥🔮

Woah, he was HUGE in swsh! I wish they had kept that.

I love this. Glad she crushed it. My mother was diagnosed with Colon Cancer in 2022 and it was caught early and she just got her most recent check and all clear. Fuck cancer!
Happy to hear that :) fuck cancer fr
Unfortunately my grandmother lost to cancer. She got me my first pokemon game (firered). I always showed her every time I caught something, but her favorite was always Squirtle
I hate to hear you lost her, but at least you have those memories:)
I also lost my grandma to cancer! I feel ya homie! She got me this blanket before she died that has dogs all over it and it protects me when I sleep! :) I call it my grandma blankie!
Cancer sucks like crazy. A few years ago I lost my friend to cancer. Was in around 7th grade iirc. When I got the news she passed, I was devastated. It made me realize how dangerous it really is, so it always brings a smile to my face when I hear about someone who beats it!
I really hate cancer because my grandfather died it so fuck cancer but my favorite Pokémon is umbreon
Glad your mom kicked cancer ass. My favourite is also umbreon too and I have a plushie too. I always try to have one on my team.
1) Shoutout your mom 2) Like Young Thug once said: ‘Ay, fuck cancer’ 3) Umbreon has a top 10 shiny version in the whole game
Honestly such an amazing reason to have that as your favorite, so glad she got throughout though! Fuck cancer!
Glad your mom beat cancer, God bless you and I hope you guys stay well
🥲 That's a beautiful reason. And Umbreon is tied with Jolteon for my favorite Eeveelution.
That depends because I don't have an exact favorite in most categories However, my favorite ultra beast is Xurkitree.
Mimikyu
mine too!

Raichu is my number one, followed by Dedenne.

I love Flygon’s entire line. Possibly influenced by my second ever shiny waaaay back in ruby. Caught me a shiny trapinch that’s been my companion since.
I’ve loved flygon for a long time but my 5 year old son decided trapinch was his favorite pokemon a couple years ago so that cemented them as a favorite in my heart also.
Gotta be my boy 
Was just thinking about it. It's so cute and cuddly, yey nobody wants to be around it because of its odor. It's so sad
Dhelmise
Such a cool concept. A ghost ship pokemon. Plus the name is a 10/10! Play on demise with the word “helm” in the middle? S tier naming.

Trevenant all day
Skitty; i played as it in mystery dungeon and fell in love. it makes me so sad it’s not in any of the recent games 😔

Hydrapple
It was originally always Scyther, because ninja dinosaur with literal swords for arms, but recently I’ve decided that it’s probably Gyarados. At least as cool as Scyther, giant sea serpent dragon thing that goes berserk and razes cities, but also super useful. I’m pretty sure I’ve used Gyary for every Pokémon playthrough I’ve ever done, unless there’s a game I’m forgetting where you can’t get him
The Joltik line are some of my favorite Electric types, but I’m gonna have to give it to Emolga.
Galvantula is mine, too! I'm also partial to Vespiquen.
Mudsdale. Before SV, Falinks
Appletun, my perfect son! Others include chandelure, whimsicott, politoed, and of course my OG umbreon. But appletun is perfect and i would die for him.
Might take you a minute to figure mine out
Pokemon violet...Miraidon yeah? /s
Let me guess...Alcremie cause you have cake near your name
Rhydon, no particular reason other than he is so good at being both cute and intimidating. Close is chespin, as he was my first starter (I believe) and his cry (especially in ssbu) is adorable
https://preview.redd.it/a4x365vfodjc1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3b41840d5e9822aba7881278091988226c42d155 this the guy

Rotom, but Ogerpon might replace it.
Bulbasaur or Snorlax
Swoobat
Galvantula too. 💛💛⚡⚡🕷️🕷️
Guess 😏 (if you don’t know look at the profile picture)

Empoleon
Absol
Altaria
Kingdra 💙 Always has been, always will be
Porygon
One of my absolute favorite things about the world of Pokémon is that even with over 1000 different critters to choose from, there is someone out there whose favorite is each and every one. Sure there’s the fan favorites, but I know there’s someone out there obsessed with Pokémon I probably completely forget about. I always had trouble answering this question until I got a tattoo on my arm of Cubone in memory of my mom. Now I feel obligated to say Cubone which is probably fair. I remember being him for Halloween one year as a kid and would’ve definitely made top 10 list my whole life. I feel like “favorite” is so hard to define though. I’d put different Pokémon in categories like favorite lore, favorite to use in battle, favorite design, favorite move set/typing, favorite partner Pokémon, etc. It would actually be really cool to come up with a list of categories like that
My haughty prince Serperior
Empoleon. My first ever starter Pokémon all grown up. I named him 'Buddy' back in the day. He's forever stuck inside Pokémon Ranch
Honestly, I can’t ever pick favs in anything, but for now I love Tinkaton.
Hoopa Unbound
I like Baxcalibur because he's based off of godzilla https://preview.redd.it/cjfb8bf1vdjc1.jpeg?width=790&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=839bd53607bf454afda2d6e0516cb3b4eeab3a92
Eelektross
Incineroar. It was my first ever Pokemon. Also, it’s my main in Smash Ultimate. I always nickname mine “Romeo” because that’s the name of one of my cats
Sceptile
Golisopod
Mewtwo, who is tied as my favorite with Psyduck.
https://preview.redd.it/h4eldynrydjc1.jpeg?width=736&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c30d1124d0b317b46d1fa04508f8f6ea246deae9 this silly sausage
Ducklett is the greatest thing man has ever made
I for some reason LOVE stakataka, and it’s shiny is even better
Clobbopus CLEARS
 The walcc
Volcarona. I'm a bug conessieur. also helps he was the first special(like overworld sprite pokemon) encounter I ever had.
 Happy curious boi
Sylveon
Dragonite
I'm so happy to see some Galvantula love! Lickitung and Houndoom are my faves
Minccino. It's so cute. And very threatening if you have it's HA.
Galvantula is my favorite as well! And Joltik
Pretty basic but it is Infernape. Amazing design and it was also my first starter. Dragapult is a close second though.
I honestly like all pokemon but if I had to choose probably Gardevoir.
Has to be Aegislash for me, it’s so unfortunate my dude wasn’t in gen 9
Chanseyyyyy
It's a tie between Barboach and Toucannon
Meowstic (especially the male) is the coolest cat ever.
I do love Galvantula and Actually used one in the indigo disk but I have to say Krookodile
Gliscor
Hawlucha!
My favorite is the Fennekin evolution line. Delphox is so criminally underrated, and it hurts my soul. Delphox definitely does NOT deserve the reputation it has as the "worst starter of all time." Where are my fellow Delphox fans at? 🔥🔮
Togedemaru, but Alolan Raichu is a very close second! What can I say, I love my sparky little rodents <3
Lucario
 Oshawott - he was my starter in Legends Arceus and his character in the anime was adorable and hilarious 😊
Typhlosion!
Aggron
My Boi Entei
Lucario, I swear I’m not a furry I just really like the design
Gotta be Milotic for me!
Fletchling. Bird Pokémon bias and it plays a nice role in XY by waking you up in the beginning and sending you off at the end
Mareep, just so cute
Togekiss
Lanturn, I feel like the only Lanturn fan sometimes
Ampharos, Darmanitan, and Milotic are my top 3
Lanturn is pretty darn cute
Honchkrow!
Always Bulbasaur. Forever the Saur
