Gardevoir. Because it's Gardevoir. What else do you want me to say?
Although I did have a pretty awesome Alakazam back in Red (who didn't?). I gave it Mega Kick and nicknamed it Psy-Kick because I [s]am[/s] was a dork.

[quote name='AZKnight' post='3053' date='Aug 15 2010, 04:41 PM']And Stars, you couldn't have Charmander in Yellow when you fought Brock [/quote]
Yeah...I'm really not sure what I was thinking when I said that...
I know I wasn't thinking about FRLG because Charmander gets Metal Claw in those. =/

Bullet wins, solely because he was the only one to provide any evidence into [i]why[/i] Gardevoir should win.

Bullet is the new Prof. Oak!

Yay *uses Arkeis.com*

[N8theGr8 2]

I'll go with Kyogre. Most variants carry Ice Beam, so even if Drought is going, Groudon gets pounded into the ground with an Ice Beam or two. I have to say that I'm more of a fan of Groudon though. But Groudon will be outspeeded and can only EQ Kyogre, which probably won't kill it.

I like calling Kyogre

(Ky-Row-Gey)

Gey rhymes with Key.

Kyogre.

Against Groudon, it's got Water Spout or Ice Beam, and against everything else, permanent Rain is just plain beastly anyway.

N8 is the new Oak for giving more thorough reasons~

[Will 16]

Funny how you guys forgot Groudon's solarbeam with drought, but it's still probably not enough, so yeah, congrats, N8.

We didn't forget about the physical attacker's non-STAB special attack, sir. =p

[N8theGr8 2]

Oh, fun, lets do something with a little less bias...

[img]http://arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/garchomp.png[/img] VS. [img]http://arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/walrein.png[/img]

CLASH OF THE LEADERS' POKEMON:

RAWRCHOMP VS. TUB-O-LARD/STALLREIN

Obamasnow's hail is up, neither have any boosts or Substitutes.

Images were again taken from [url="http://arkeis.com/home.htm"]here.[/url]

[Mashew 4]

If its like that then my Money is on tub o lard He has Blizzard Protect and so much more he could dominate lol~

[Bullet 0]

I don't think there's supposed to be specific situations.....
Or that we're supposed to be putting them against each other in a battle, instead of just comparing them.

[N8theGr8 2]

But Stallrein is utterly useless without Hail support.

[Bullet 0]

And for that reason exactly, I vote Garchomp. The fact that hail is up shows a ton of bias. I mean, the fairest would be no weather, in which Garchomp is better......

[N8theGr8 2]

Stallrein without hail is not functional. That's like Jolteon in Trick Room. It doesn't work.

[Ninpen 0]

I agree with everyone, Garchomp is too much of a beast.

[N8theGr8 2]

This really was a bad round, seeing as no one REALLY elaborated on why they picked who they did, so I'll pick Mashew. He's the only one that put ANY reasoning whatsoever behind his choice

[Mashew 4]

thanks N8 lol i think ill go with.....

Persian [img]http://th09.deviantart.net/fs19/300W/f/2007/226/3/5/Pokemon___Persian_by_Hotaru_Neko.jpg[/img]
Vs.
Purugly [img]http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090225002029/pokemon/images/thumb/5/51/Purugly.png/190px-Purugly.png[/img]

[N8theGr8 2]

Persian. Taken straight from smogon.com:

[quote]It has a little more Attack than Persian, but other than that, Purugly is totally outclassed by its feline counterpart.[/quote]

Also, besides being better in EVERY ASPECT other than Attack, Persian also looks just way more awesome. It can look cute, it can look mysterious, it can look mischeivous, and it even can look a bit evil. Purugly's just a cat that looks like it got thrown into a trash compacter. Remember the first season of Pokemon when Team Rocket wasn't just stupid comic relief? Giovanni had a Persian, and it looked BADASS. I don't remember Purugly playing even a somewhat important role in the show. Really, Persian has just always seemed better to me. Maybe it's because I think every 1st Gen Pokemon except for a few (Jynx and others) seem well designed and just awesome to me. I dunno.

[Ninpen 0]

It would have been more awesome if Giovanni was smoking a cigar and was like

"No, Mr. Red. I expect you to die."

[Mashew 4]

I WANT THIS REVIVED!!! SO N8 IS THE NEW PROF> OAK GO NOW >3

[N8theGr8 2]

Alright, I'm gonna do something fun.

[img]http://arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/charizard.png[/img] VS. [img]http://arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/typhlosion.png[/img] VS.
[img]http://arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/blaziken.png[/img] VS.
[img]http://arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/infernape.png[/img]

TIME TO FIGHT FIRE WITH MORE FIRE!

[Mashew 4]

this is hard.... Im going with Blaziken only cause I use it often. Brave Bird is unexpected on it Earthquake is a good move and flare blitz and Superpower STAB time~ So yeah lol its a good poke

HEAD TO HEAD!! 123
lets pit 2 pokemon together and see who comes out on top. 46 mashew 308 Today, 03:21 PM
Last post by: mashew
trololol 2 Pokemon, but oh well.

Infern®ape because, well, it's Infernape. It outclasses Blaziken with far superior speed, which is arguably the most important stat, as well as movepool. Typhlosion isn't thatspecial without Scarf Eruption, which priority, most notably Aqua Jet, wrecks. Charizard can be pretty good, but just can't match up in mied or special attacking, and is also slower.

[Maelstrom 312]

I vote in the order of their listing actually, so first choice is charizard, and so on and so forth.

[N8theGr8 2]

Bullet wins for actually putting logic behind his answer, but I, like Orca Mael (HAHA IT RHYMES WITH WHALE), like Charizard the most. My order actually is...

1) Charizard
2) Infernape
3) Blaziken
4) Typhlosion

...I love all of them though. Too bad Black/White's fire starter is beyond retarded, so I can't say that Fire Types are always best starters anymore. Go go Bullet!
