Gen 5 was a grind for me to get through as well haha. Don’t think any would make my top 25 overall if not more…
I tried to base them off character design and my feelings, and NOT off in-game practicality.
Tried to avoid duplicates, crossing generations, and to consider the design of what the mon was supposed to be compared to how it looks. This was a fun way to discover new mon, thanks for posting, @lookaclara!
This all made me realize a few things:
- Charizard is NOT my one of my favorite mon except for MY charizard which I transferred up from FireRed > … > HGSS Otherwise, Ninetales is OG Fire.
- I really did NOT find Gen 3 creature designs inspiring.
- Gen 4 was really lacking in new creature lines.
- I’m really feeling unfaithful to Steelix right now.

*Unexpected favorites from the new era - Ceruledge, Armarouge, Tinkaton, and of course, Grafaiai
*I feel like character design got more creative without adding complexity.
Honestly, a lot of my choices are pretty expected, but they’re my favorites
. Some of these came as a surprise to me, but the chart doesn’t lie. It was really interesting sitting down and thinking about this sort of thing in such depth.

Thanks!
What can i say…i love ghost pokemon…
was a lot of fun to do. Sort of a test even. But it ended as i expected…
I like gigantamax Blastoise design because it’s so unusual and awesome - like a gigantic walking titan class fortress. But I never used it in games and don’t have cards of it. Same about a UFO-Orbeetle (but i have a card for L.O. master set)
I only have 4 fave pokemons, see my siggy below msg:
(Lugia and Mewtwo are “seasonal”, meaning depending on artwork of card.)
