Favorite Pokemon game/character?

[Blaze]

I dunno, been obsessing over pokemon lately. XD
I got into pokemon at a young age and have been playing it since then. My favorite game is Heart Gold because your pokemon follow you around and you can explore TWO regions, Kanto and Jhoto. Plus Silver is in it..Heehee. The only thing I dislike about it is the girl character Lyra. @_@
Not ONLY does she look like a female Mario, she's just so...irritating. XD
And no, I've had the name Lyra long before she came out. -__-"
What about you guys? What;s your fave pokemon game/character? :3

I've loved pokemon since I was in first grade, I have a big collection of cards still XD and quite a few plush toys and figures.

Though my favorite game.. probably the Diamond/Pearl/Platinum set, because I like a majority of the pokemon in that game.... and Cynthia, female champion gets a YES in my book.

Silver and Crystal. I'm starting to realize that the first two generations of Pokemon are my faves, and they are in this game and more. There's day and night cycles, I love the plot revolving around the Rockets, plus the female character actually looks good.

Top it off, you get to explore Kanto after defeating the Pokemon League! Not to mention Red (the character, not the game) xD

I also like Pokemon Red. I guess you can call me old school cuz I'm a fan of the classics.

I was never REALLY into the show as a child (well I wasn't allowed to watch it @_@) nor was I allowed to have any hand-held video game devices until I was thirteen @_@ So....the only pokemon games I've played BESIDES Smash Bros are Pearl and Soul silver. I like Soul silver. As for characters--I don't really care if we're talking about humans. But for the pokemon themselves, my faves aer: Raichu, Mew, Chikorita and Piplup ^^

[Blaze]

Nemo - Haha, Cynthia IS awesome. :3

Mizan - You're right, Kris looks WAY better than Lyra. -_-"

Kitexa - omg rly? That sucks. D: But yeah, SS and HG are cool.

It's nice to know people like pokemon. Some people say it's stupid, but they seriously don't know what they're missing out on.

Hmm out of all of them my favorites has to be the original Red/Blue/Yellow

Red/Blue cause thats what got me into the Pokemon craze back in 99, yellow cause it had bits of the series in it (Red was resprited into Ash, you start with Pikachu, the gym leaders had their anime teams except Blaine and Giovanni. Brock and Misty had their series looks, and Team Rocket Jessie and James appeared in the game too, and Pikachu had his anime voice in the game and in Pokemon Stadium and Stadium 2)

right next to that would also be Gold/Silver/Crystal mainly for the replay value (exploring Kanto and winning the Kanto badges again, and beating Red) and especially getting Celebi in Crystal via the GS ball

Lyra: Heck ya she is <D <3

Kitexa: You really weren't allowed to watch the show? I heard when it was first out it caused a lot of controversy (even when I worked at a homeless shelter and donating toys, they said you couldn't donate 'NOTHING Pokemon or Power Rangers', made me go HUH? o.o). And my first videogame wasn't until I was.. 12-13ish to XD

Ironically Ruby was my first pokemon game, and I bought Crystal and yellow later... then the others in proper order.

[twotone]

Kitexa: wha?? you never got to see the show?? Wow, well there was controversey in the first season and eps were banned (the most infamous was Electric Soldier Porygon which caused 700 children to have siezures in japan, other banned season 1 eps were Beauty and the Beach which was seriously edited when it was shown eventually as a lost episode, the part cut out was the beauty contest which James wears a body suit that gave him boobs that constantly inflated giving him a much larger bust XD (oh god I feel so dirty typing that) the ep that aired after that Tentacool and Tentacruel was banned due to buildings being destroyed which parents felt represented 9/11 (much like the banned ep of 101 dalmatians the series where spot crashes her plane into the chow tower, also got a good 101 D ep banned too in Prima Doggy namely cause Two-Tone and Patch have major roles in that ep) and then there was Legend of Dratini which shows how Ash got 30 Tauros and the ep included lots of gun play)

[Fang]

I like Fire Red, Diamond and Sapphire <3

for characters....Honestly, I don´t care about the show, but I LOVE the manga.
The characters have a lot of personality there and I love the plots <3 I freaking love the Ruby and Sapphire arc
and my favorite characters is Ruby, I love the way he changed though the arc, I love that vain guy <3

[Patchy]

Gary Oak. That is all

[Kitexa]

Yeeah I'm serious @_@ MY mom "Didn't like the way they talked to each other." It was all "angry" and "Yelling" in her eyes @_@ No concept of anime understanding....didn't even know what the show was about and STILL I wasn't allowed to watch it.

Course...well I'll spare you guys the details about what I wasn't allowed to watch. I'm the oldest in my family=sheltered child..

[Blaze]

Kitexa - That bites. When were you allowed to play the games?

Fang - OMG I <3 THE MANGA!!! Yeah, Ruby is hilarious. XD
Except the whole time I thought he had white hair, not black.

@patchy - Win.

My favorite game has to be Emerald. I know most of the Pokemon fans out there absolutely hate the Hoenn region for some unknown reason that I just can't seem to place, but in all honesty, it was my favorite.

Emerald was the first game I played all the way through, waaaay back in the summer of '05- Sapphire and I were going into 3rd grade at the time (and now it seems so long ago to think about XD). I remember Hoenn just had this charm to it that the others didn't have. The Pokemon were great, the gyms were awesome, and the region itself was cleverly designed. Plus, you could go diving, which was awesome. ;D

Of course, I DID get a chance to play like, FireRed and learn the joys of other regions, as well as stalk Serebii (a Pokemon info site, for those who don't know) for updates whilst Diamond and Pearl were being made. And then this year, when Black and White came out (my second favorite <3 I loved White to bits and want to get Black badly), I made my mom wait with me in the huge line in GameStop to pick it up while we were late for a baby shower, and then take like, 5 more minutes for me to get Celebi. c:

Out of the 5 though, I never got to play Johto. And to be honest, I didn't really like SoulSilver. My cousin always asks me why, and it was because I got the game at a hectic time and really just never got into it. I'm trying to get a copy of classic Crystal, though; something I've wanted since 3rd grade.

So yeah, Emerald is my fave. My second-place rank has to go to White. <3

[Blaze]

Hoenn will always be my favorite region. I love the pokemon there and the story line so much. To me Sapphire was the best game besides Heart Gold and Crystal. No offense to anyone, but I dislike Black and White. ^ ^;
Besides a handful, most of the pokemon are just lacking originality. A trash can pokemon? An ice cream pokemon? No...Just..No.

Lyra: ADSDADASDA I´M NOT THE ONLY WHO READS THE MANGA ;w;!
I think everybody though than he had white hair Uu..
I love his glasses 83 and his scars
