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.

Gengar!

(Serious now: I love Tropius. You'll probably remember him as the banana dinosaur HM slave. Fucking awesome design.)
Snorlax. He's just so relatable.
Mew
Bulbasaur. Sweet little onion baby is number one in the dex and number one in our hearts.
Eevee!
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
Haunter, I always liked the floating hands and big smile!
Salamance
Likitung!! He’s always so happy!
Man I've got a lot. Pokémon's got some good character designs, but my top two have to be Victini and Gengar.
Ubreon, shiny is so cool
Charizard FTW! 😊
sandshrew forever, with a long trail of mostly ground and ghost runner ups
I always thought golem was super cool, but it wasn't advantageous against the elite four.
Chansey
Militank! :D
Litten. Its soo cute
Crobat!
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!
Deoxys
Psyduck! C'mon, he's a duck with a headache.
Mimikyu is adorable!
Ho-oh. I don't know why but it's been my favorite ever since I first saw it
Always wanted a pet Wingull since I played Emerald. I need to evolve it if it's actually going to fight though
Munchlax!
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.
Misdreavus!
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!
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.
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.
Snorlax is my spirit Pokémon
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.
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!
Bidoof is the best, sweet little guys. Who only gey dunked on nearly as bad as Magikarp.
Quagsire!
Love me some Girafarig
Torchic!
Cinccino!!
Mine is also Gengar! (if the profile pic didn't give it away)
Sylveon, but I’ve got a soft spot for the Gen 1 starters too.
