Hes just a boss.
Hah short and sweet…I like
Any fave pokemon card art of him?
The original neo discovery one is simple and great. Many of the other cards have amazing art like all the ex series ones and the newer XY ones. Except for the regular ex tyranitar.
Since I had a hard time deciding, I didn’t really make a top 10, but just placed all my favorite Pokémons. Most are due to the design, but also a few for other reasons.
My all time favorite is Seviper (#336). Snakes are my favorite animals, and although I like Ekans and Arbok as well, Seviper is definitely my favorite. It’s complete design is amazing, and I’m glad I decided to collect those as well along with my Pikachu collection recently. I also discovered that all the cards designs are pretty on-point as well!
Others I like ordered by national index (so in no particular order in terms of favorite - some I like more than others, but these are all my favorite Pokémons):
#25 Pikachu: Although it’s not my absolute favorite Pokémon, it’s iconic, well-known, and the mascot of Pokémon in general. How can you not like it?
#65 Alakazam: As a kid I always had (day)dreams about magical powers (and being a Pokémon trainer of course), and psychic was one of those powers. And just like with this entire list I like the design of Alakazam as well.
#081 Magnemite: I wonder how we would react when we would have seen a floating magnet in the current gens. Would we react the same way as to Pokémon like Klefki? I personally really like Magnemite’s design, and apart from Pikachu I had Magnemite the most in my TCG collection (probably about 12 or so out of the ±1,000 cards).
#93 Haunter: I just love how they portrait him in the anime. Always cracks me up when I see an episode with Haunter.
#99 Kingler: I liked it every time Ash used his Kingler in the anime, and after I got pulled the holo Expedition Base Set Kingler card, I liked it even more.
#104 Marowak: That he throws his bone as a boomerang is cool, and it’s also kinda mysterious that we never see it’s face. All in all a great Pokémon and I was happy every time I pulled on from a pack. Oh, and the colors of the Alola version is pretty cool as well.
#132 Ditto: Well, I guess we all know why I like it, because of his design of course! power to change into any other Pokémon. I always imagined how overpowered a Ditto with photographic memory would be, being able to transform into any Pokémon it has ever seen in the past at any time in a battle.
#141 Kabutops: One of my favorites in terms of design. Just look at him(/her?), it looks so cool!
#142 Aerodactyl: I like dinosaurs, I collect fossils (among other things…) and I like his design of course.
#146 Moltres: When I imagined I was a Pokémon trainer in generation I, Moltres was always one of my six Pokémon. It’s a legendary bird, majestic and powerful at the same time. And the WOTC 21 promo Moltres card is also my favorite card design ever.
151 Mew: Mew is just cute ^-^, especially the giggle in the anime.
#185 Sudowoodo: It’s funny. I like that it’s pretty tall, and it hates water. And I also really liked the Sudowoodo flippo. I never really understand people who collects loads of the exact same card, but I did the same with this flippo as a kid.I probably had about 30+. (PS: Are they called flippo in English as well, or is it cogs or pogs or something?)
#208 Steelix: Just amazing looking, and I had quite a few Steelix cards in my collection. Also, my grandpa made me a Steelix painting once (with made up colors since he forgot what color it was:. So it has green, yellow, red, etc.)
#319 Sharpedo: I love the Team Aqua’s Sharpedo card, which is the main reason why it’s on this list. I got it from a pack, and love it! Just like Kingler one of those cards I just love mostly due to one amazing card. When I had this I didn’t even knew it was actually ‘cut off’ at the end.
#384 Rayquaza: Apart from Seviper, Rayquaza is probably my favorite. It’s cool, looks great, his movements are awesome in the anime, he’s strong, he’s kinda a snake as well as a dragon. And he’s mostly seen above the ozone in space.
#462 Magnezone: A worthy last evolution of Magnemite. It’s just so smooth looking and one of my favorites of generation IV.
#632 Durant: Ants are one of my favorite animals as well, and they nailed it with this Durant design. And being a steel-type is also a plus for me.
#717 Yveltal: Another amazing legendary design, and great choice of colors. I didn’t really liked it in the movie, though…
#M-6 Mega Charizard X: Those colors! This is what Mega Pokémon is all about!
#M-142 Mega Aerodactyl: Added spikes are never a bad thing imo, so I like it just as much as the regular Aerodactyl.
#M-384 Mega Rayquaza: I like Mega Rayquaza as much as the regular one. And I also really like the Shining ones. And those ?whiskers? that corrospond with the yellow stripes on the regular version is a nice touch; like they came off from his skin.
#M-660 Ash’s Greninja: The star of the show in the last anime season.
#724 Decidueye: Maybe adding the Sun & Moon Pokémon is a bit soon, but some designs are pretty cool. I really like that he uses his wings as a bow and arrow.
#733 Toucannon: Ok, I hate the name. But what can I say, I love Toucans, and although it looks more like an actual Toucan than a Pokémon, the natural design of ana ctual Toucan is amazing, so so is this Pokémon’s design.He should just have been a bit less angry.
#746 Wishiwashi: What’s up with those names?!..I like the way it’s scared alone and fearsome as a group, though. Probably my favorite of the Sun & Moon Pokémon.
ADDED: #778 Mimikyu: My favorite Pokémon after Seviper. I absolutely love how they portrayed it in the anime, and the entire vibe and story behind it. It’s also the third Pokémon I now collection after Pikachu and Seviper.
#792 Lunala: Well, you can say quite a few things about some Pokémon designs, but almost all the legendaries are pretty cool. It’s hard to name one that isn’t.Ok, the list is a bit longer than I thought; and I even left out quite a few of them…
Quote from a similar thread I posted past November. Although I was surprised to see Mimikyu wasn’t part of that list, even though it’s my favorite Pokémon after Seviper now.
Also, this picture from the Favorite Pokémon Picker @xzini posted about two months ago summarizes it somewhat:

Greetz,
Quuador
Gengar… Because I pwnd everyone in my school in 1999 with the gameboy link cable; when I was in year 6 at 12 years of age… Even the stupid kid with mew.
Noone could beat me muahhaha.
Tyranitar was another one of my main pokemon in my party… But then my pokemon silver battery died and I lost all of them!!! It erases the memory… All of my red level 100 pokemon I transferred to silver! Gone!!! Ahhhhhhhhh
Missed it so much… But I think I’ve replayed red and silver like 3-5 times again. Haha

Because Gen 1 is king ![]()
Charizard - original beast
Pidgeot - always had one on my team ever since I first played Red
Vileplume - just looks awesome
Aerodactyl - Flying dinosaur. Nothing else to say!Three exceptions to my dislike of ‘new’ (anything after red, blue yellow!) Pokemon:
Tyranitar - leveling up that larvitar on mt.silver or wherever it was on silver and gold, leveled him up for ages and eventually got this beast. Looks like Godzilla. Still haven’t got a card with him on…
Trevenant - Haunted tree, reminded me of the Ents from LOTR. Got a shiny one in X+Y.
Altaria - shiny version looks awesome. See avatar.
Shiny Altaria was the first shiny I ever caught (Well, Swablu) which was in my Pokemon Emerald game. I haven’t played a Pokemon game since then. I found the Swablu casually without trying too hard to look for it.

I lost about 800 hours on my Pokemon Gold version. I had about 30 Pokemon in LV. 100 and about 20 or so in LV. 50. I haven’t picked up the game ever since my data was lost. I loved taking my LV. 50 Pokemon and using them in Pokemon Stadium 2.
Should be obvious, but Mew ![]()
