Bulbasaur. Years ago, I mentioned he looked like a garlic bulb so my kid gave me her plastic toy Bulbasaur and now he sits on the windowsill as the patron saint of my kitchen.

Snorlax. He's just so relatable.
Pic related:
(Serious now: I love Tropius. You'll probably remember him as the banana dinosaur HM slave. Fucking awesome design.)
Gengar!
Haunter, I always liked the floating hands and big smile!
Bulbasaur. Sweet little onion baby is number one in the dex and number one in our hearts.
Mew
Alakazam
As a child I trained a Kadabra to level 100 because another kid told me this is when it evolved.
Nope! We did eventually trade back and forth - but those 2 minutes of my newly evolved level 100 Alakazam on my friend's cartridge demanded an insane level of trust between two 10 year olds. That shit was intense!
Laughed so much at this, thanks
Chansey
Deoxys
Man I've got a lot. Pokémon's got some good character designs, but my top two have to be Victini and Gengar.
Likitung!! He’s always so happy!
Militank! :D
Ubreon, shiny is so cool
sandshrew forever, with a long trail of mostly ground and ghost runner ups
I honestly can't choose. I love too many of them. Some of my favorites are clefable, pikachu, vaporeon, palafin, armarouge, absol, meowscarada/sprigatito, grovyle, corviknight, ampharos, wooloo... just too many!
I always thought golem was super cool, but it wasn't advantageous against the elite four.
I'm a simple guy, Charizard.
Are you working at gamefreak by chance?
Excellent taste.
Psyduck! C'mon, he's a duck with a headache.
Litten. Its soo cute
Salamance
Charizard FTW! 😊
Ho-oh. I don't know why but it's been my favorite ever since I first saw it
Munchlax!
It's not strong at all since it's a pretty early route mon, but definitely the buizel line. Grafaiai just barely first place for me, but I absolutely love that as well.
Snorlax is my spirit Pokémon
Big fan of Togekiss. I know it's not exactly great, but I had a good run in my local meta running a serene grace Togekiss special sweep. Good times
Munchlax, Drifblim, and Beedrill. and i, much like every disaffected child in the 2000's, wanted Entei to be my dad.
Crobat!
Rayquaza. It looks cool, it's powerful and it has a cool role. What's not to love? Plus, it's one of the few Pokémon with a good looking shiny.
Always wanted a pet Wingull since I played Emerald. I need to evolve it if it's actually going to fight though
Misdreavus!
Totodile. Elementary school me picked him at random when I played HeartGold (still hadn't wrapped my head around the whole touchscreen thing IIRC) and I loved the little guy.
Houndoom! With Bulbasaur as closed 2nd.
Quagsire!
Umbreon! I have a tattoo on my forearm, but I got it as a poor and dumb college kid, so I'm getting it reworked in September by an artist that will do it justice!
Charizard! Basic but ill never forget my mom handing me that red box when I was younger
My favorite Pokémon has been poliwag ever since I played Pokémon blue for the first time. He so adorable and becomes a very powerful Pokémon. I remember catching him early on in Crystal version and making him my starter Pokémon.
I think Clobbopus is pretty great!
Cinccino!!
Snorlax. Snorlax is my spirit animal
Mine is also Gengar! (if the profile pic didn't give it away)
Bidoof is the best, sweet little guys. Who only gey dunked on nearly as bad as Magikarp.
