Not-So-New Poll thread, changing when I feel like it. Choose which you like the best, every poll will always have some type of theme, like Which version of *blank* do you like better? or maybe it's related to what animal it is, or some other theme.
This contest is... Reanimation!

East Side, mai boi!!
I think the waves of the blue younger one look better than the pink bubble things on the pink younger, and the adults look equally cool, so logically I choose blue side.
blu side
Blue. Pink's shape even looks feminine.
For me, it's Pink for the evo, and blue for the prevo. The evo got my vote.
Edited, vote for Castform forms now, GO GO GO!
Hail Castform
Hail is kewler than dah rest.

Wow, hail wins pretty easily here.
I voted for it. I like raindrop castform a bit less, and like the sunny castform the least of the three.
I wonder why there's not like a sandstorm form.

Meh, I based it off of what you need to raise in order to evolve Tyrogue. I like these better though.
Hitmonchan. Fire, Ice and Thunder Punch make him pretty darn useful against a nice variety of foes.
I'd have to choose Hitmonchan. Hitmonlee is cool and so is Hitmontop, but I just like the "Punch" attacks the best. Kicks are cool, but some of them have bad recoil and/or other unsatisfactory effects. The "Punch" attacks are just all-around reliable and decently strong. Hitmontop is balanced, but I like more oriented stat distribution.

Because Sandstorm isn't a weather...
It would be dumb for him to change during a sandstorm.
The same could be said for the fog effect.
On topic:
I choose Hitmonlee simply because:
-He's the fastest.
-He's got the highest Atk stat.
-His HP is the second highest with Hitmontop being the first.
-He has a variety of moves to choose from that benefit him.
-Blaze Kick is just intercourse ing epic.
-Best abilities out of the 3.
Hitmontop would be second on my list.
Hitmonchan is just plain horrid imo.
I voted Hitmonlee.
The best of the 3.
I was gonna edit earlier, but it was tied so I waited, then I forgot, anyway, new poll. GO GO!
Nido ♂
Nidoran female
nido male, because its useful
Nidoking and Nidorino have been some of my favorite Pokémon since I started playing the games, so I'd have to go with them. I do like the attacks that Nidoqueen can learn, however, as they are arguably better than Nidoking's. I'm pretty sure that Nidoqueen has better stats as well, but I just like the way Nidoking looks.
Oh yeah, New poll.
YES PIKACHU COUNTS!
Oh yeah, modified old thingies to Heart Gold & Soul Silver sprites just for poops and giggles.
Charmander. You eventually will have a Charizard. Nothing can be argued against that.
Who can deny Charmander's (and Charizard's) awesomeness?
Easily the best Kanto starter. Not to mention that fire is a generally easier type to go with than the others.
I liked Bulbasaur
Charmander :3
the answer to all starter questions is of course the fire type

Very true. But wouldn't a Grass- or Water-type be easier in the beginning of a journey in Kanto? Both are useful against Brock and Bulbasaur is useful against Misty (not to mention Squirtle being resistant at least), and Bulbasaur is resistant to Lt. Surge. Charmander is good against Erika though. But overall, Charizard really does learn the best moves, and the Fire-type has good strengths. I totally agree.
Anyway, I would've chosen Charmander for EXTREME SUPER AWESOME CLASSIC RETRO NOSTALGIA... but once I saw
Pikachu... I just started feelin' the vibe. After all, I woke up as a Pikachu in
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness (I didn't rig the test
I did in the first game for Totodile though :/). ANYWAY ANYWAY, I kind of chose Pikachu for the same reason as Charmander.
ily Bulbasaur but I have to pick Squirtle because he was my first and I thought you had to pick the starter that was one the game card D=

Last I checked, Fire was the difficult path with Grass being the first and Water being the second.
Overall that, Pikachu had the advantage over all Gym Leaders.

NEW POLL.
Doit.
Hey JR.
The Rivalry is kinda self-explanatory.
Zangoose is a Mongoose and Seviper is a Snake right?
In India mongooses were used by the Indians to fight off poisonous snakes.
Snake Charmers also keep mongooses for mock fights with snakes.
This is the reason why Nintendo made them that way. They wanted to base it off of reality.
If you think about it further it actually made sense for them to do that.

Zangoose: Cat Ferret Pokémon
Seviper: Fang Snake Pokémon
Also, the "rivalry" of reality is a Mongoose and a King Cobra.
I thought of that reason, but since he's not really a Mongoose and KCobra, it kinda confused me.
Seviper has a cooler call in the anime.
Zangoose, because it always looked like an evil bunny covered in blood to me. And really, who wouldn't pick that?
Seviper
Zangose. Crush claw rules <3
I can't decide, so I didn't vote. Both are very awesome and statistically equal. There's only one "super-effective against Seviper" move that Zangoose can learn, but it's Dig, which can easily be evaded. Besides, Seviper can also learn Dig AND Earthquake to counter it. The only "super-effective against Zangoose" move that Seviper can learn is Rock Smash, which is a bit weak for Level 30 and up. However, it does have a good effect; 50% chance of lowering the foe's Defense by 1. I'm still not exactly sure who would win though.

"Zangoose is, as its name implies, based on a mongoose"
QuoteDespite being based on a mongoose, the Pokédex entry says that it is the "Cat Ferret Pokémon."
Although it is stated that Seviper and Zangoose are bitter enemies, they are both in the Ground egg group, meaning that they can breed in the games.
Despite its sharp claws, as well as the basis of its name (see below), Zangoose is unable to learn Cut.
The rivalry between Seviper and Zangoose is based on the relationship between the mongoose and the king cobra - the cobra is the longest venomous snake in the world, and the mongoose is one of its few predators.
From Generation III to Generation IV, Zangoose's claws have changed from purple to ANGRY ANGRY ANGRY n_gger MAN MAN MAN.
Before Generation IV, Zangoose was the only Pokémon to learn Crush Claw by leveling up.
Zangoose is compatible with the R/S/E move tutor that teaches Thunder Wave, but not the TM that teaches the move that was introduced in Generation IV.
Every one of Zangoose's Pokédex entries mention Seviper.
Despite being enemies with Seviper, they live in the same friend area.
Seviper and Zangoose have the same base stat total, 458. They are the only two Pokémon to have this amount.
Both Zangoose and Mongoose have
goose at the end of their names.
That's what really gives it all away.
King Cobras are indeed the top snakes that vs. against mongooses, but they are also occasionally paired up against other poisonous snakes.
Like I said before, Indians used them to fend off and clear their lands from poisonous snakes.(Which is what Seviper is)

I can't decide, so I didn't vote. Both are very awesome and statistically equal. There's only one "super-effective against Seviper" move that Zangoose can learn, but it's Dig, which can easily be evaded. Besides, Seviper can also learn Dig AND Earthquake to counter it. The only "super-effective against Zangoose" move that Seviper can learn is Rock Smash, which is a bit weak for Level 30 and up. However, it does have a good effect; 50% chance of lowering the foe's Defense by 1. I'm still not exactly sure who would win though.
If you vote Seviper, the odds will be evened out.
So you can breed them? ????
Yeah, it's possible.
I'm not fond of most of the Gen III pokes, and those two are included in the large batch I don't like.
ono
A virus came into the thread.
RUN VOTE FOR YOUR LIVES!
can we have pics?
Attack gets my vote for coolest looking, but when it comes to who I prefer in battle, I have to go with Speed.
Sorry, didn't see that. I guess speed get my vote
Normal
Although speed is awesome, I have to vote for defense. It's domeish look is pretty cook.

Wow, I've always liked Hoenn's Pokémon the best actually; it is my favorite region after all.

I like Defense-Forme as well, but not as much as Attack-Forme. It's too bad not many people pay attention to Defense-Forme though; it's awesome.
Speed-Forme is cool too, but I don't like its head as much as Attack-Forme's. Same goes for the body shape and colors too. During battle, I'd have to go with Attack-Forme or possibly Defense-Forme.

Your vote wouldn't have evened it out anymore anyway.
I just noticed that the votes always seem to stop around 10 votes.....
I don't know how Hitmonpick had so many votes compared to the rest, but they did.
With that said, I have infected the thread with worms.
Plant! I've always just liked the plant one more, its prettier :3
Trash. I like the bubble gum. Or is it a candy wrapper?
sand evolved looks like pizza and trash evolved looks like cotton candy, so I think I will vote pizza
As for the "worms", I can't decide. I haven't used them all and I haven't even evolved the Plant one that I have. As for looks alone, I still can't decide between them. I'm leaning toward Plant and Trash for Burmy and Sandy and Trash for Wormadam. I don't want to base my decision solely on looks though, since that's not what this poll is mainly about.
You might get more votes if you actually properly referred to what the intercourse we're supposed to vote on.

Solely on opinion, if you want to pick the one that looks coolest, then do that, if you want to vote for which one is more useful in your opinion, then DOIT. If your opinion can't be decided due to your lack of using them, use a different reason to vote for one for this 1 poll, then go back to normal on the next.
As an example, if you usually pick for how useful it is, but don't know how useful it is to you, then change it to looks, which looks coolest?
I for one usually choose the one that
looks coolest, but if you want to vote for a deeper reason go right ahead.
You still haven't explained what we actually are voting on. As in what the intercourse worms are.
According to the Pokédex, these guys are bagworms, so I did a little joke.
And I did explain enough, vote however you like, if you can't decide in that method try a new method (like pick based on which one LOOKS coolest in your opinion)
Regiiis.
Regice.
Regirock
Regice because... I love Ice <3
Registeel. I found him to be the most useful.
Registeel was the first one of the three I caught.
I like all of the normal Regi's, but Regigigas is okay too. I had to choose Registeel though because Steel is super-effective against Rock and Ice, and resistant to Normal. That's really my only reasoning. :-\
I will never finish with a tie for 1st btw.
It's quite obvious that I'd choose the one with only one weakness...
of cours, i have to go with registeel, as he can kick both regirock and regices butts, because steel dominates!!!
New poll!
Finally...
Dialga. Steel dragons ftw.
dialga's my favorite, but giratinas distortion world is awesome!
Palkia is pretty cook
Giratina. Ghost/Dragon is an awesome combo, and it looks cool.
But Palkia comes in second. Pink dragon ftw
I did this one sooner than most, New poll!
You may have noticed boredom hit me hard in the thread.
Also, fix Spoiler boxes plox.
Neither. :/
I don't care if you guys don't like Cocoons, I'm not ending this poll with so little votes.
Kakuna
Metapod. Because it was one of the first Pokemon I ever caught, and I like Butterfree <3
cascoon. they're malicious.
Kakuna. He's always been one of my favorites. <3
I like Kakuna. Both of the hoenn cocoons are ugly.
Kakuna, as it used to scare me D:
Woah, I was gonna change it a couple days ago but it slipped my mind, Kakuna was gonna lose, but now he won!
Pick One is going green! Do you wanna save the Earth? Ocean? or Skies the most?
Now, PICK ONE!
Rayquaza
Groudon because he helped me beat the elite four ^-^
kyogre. i love the ocean, and he's the coolest.
Always preferred Kyorgre. One of the few of Gen III I didn't hate.
Groudon. No idea why, but I always liked him best.
I like Groundon, because we need more grounds!!
Now, GROUND-ON!
See what I did there?

*runs away*
Kyogre was my first legendary capture in Hoenn (in Sapphire version), and I love its stats, strategies, and moves. Overall, I like it the best and I'm pretty sure that it can beat the other two in a one-on-one battle considering move sets. I think it looks the coolest as well.

I'm MAXI
This poll will stay up for a while since it's a larger poll than usual and I want everyone to have a winning chance.
...
Its missing the one I like.
EDIT: I suppose I should be a little clearer about which one I like. I like Espeon
I like Espeon too
Glaceon <3
Umbreon or Jolteon.
And Espeon?
I should ban you for not including Espeon.
o_o
I had Espeon.....
Oh yeah, the Poll sometimes doesn't include all of the options, it was harder to tell on this poll.....
Yeah, someone should fix that problem with polls, it happened a lot in the past, it hasn't happened recently which is why I didn't notice.
Poll restarted and fixed, this time it really didn't want to include Glaceon, but I did it.
Jolteon has always been my favorite.
Flareon. Leafeon shouldn't get votes because that intercourse er should have been in R/G/B/Y with the leaf stone.
This was a close one between Umbreon and Glaceon, but Glaceon got the vote for numerous "little" reasons. Umbreon still comes in at a close second, and Espeon is a close third.
When there was only the first set of three, I liked them all the same. I never could form an opinion on Espeon or Umbreon until using them in Pokémon Coliseum. I really liked them both. When Glaceon and Leafeon were revealed, they were equally as awesome, but I really like the Ice-type and Glaceon's stat orientation. The fact that May has one in the animé further showed me its awesomeness.
I prefer Espeon and Vaporeon, but Espeon is more useful, so I went with that.
i pick jolteon. i dont know why.
i expect umbreon to win though. im surprised hes not winning.
Espeon, Vaporeon, Jolteon... tough choice, but I think I will go with Jolteon. Jolteon can rip apart all of the other evolutions if giving the right moveset, with that being said, he is badass.
I picked Flareon.
Umbreon has always been my favorite.
We need more pure dark types...
Jolteon. one of the most useful out of them, and come one, he looks badass.
POKé SMASH BROS!
Go.
Also, Fix Spoiler boxes plox
Mewtwo. He was intercourse ing awesome. He shouldn't have been replaced by Lucario.

This.
I was so disappointed when i found out Mewtwo wasnt going to be in Brawl, and mad when I found out Lucario was there to replace him. :(
Jigglypuff! It's so pink and squishy <3
A couple more votes would be appreciated.

Why is there 0 votes for her then?
From a Smash Bros. perspective. The three PT ones by FAR. I mean, shell-shifting hydroslide or whatever it's called.
Squirtle would win for me any day.
Mmmk, seems like Mewtwo got most of the loving.
Now, which would you reanimate?
Anorith I used it in my Platinum party and it was pretty good
Sorry for not voting, but I can't. It's another "can't decide between them" ballot. I've really used all of them (except Aerodactyl, who I only used much in Yellow, which was a long time ago). I've always liked both fossils from each region equally and never had a favorite pair of fossils (concerning region of origin). HOW CAN I BE EXPECTED TO CHOOSE?
Omanyte :)
kabutops is frikin awesome, so i pick kabuto naturally
Aero plzkthx
