Stolen from  KaeMantis! My top 10 favorite Pokemon. Feel free to make a journal too, or list your below!

I'm a casual player and not interested in competitive play, so my favorites are centered around design, description and solo play.

#10 Meganium - Finally done justice in the newest Pokemon Snap, Meganium is truly a legend. Big? Yes. Goofy? Yes. Plant powers that make you love it? Absolutely.

#9 Absol - One of the best designs in the franchise, hands down. Between the tragic backstory and the scary looks, this Pokemon writes fanfiction for itself.

#8 Bolthund - zoom zoom

#7 Meowscarada - I honestly was impressed with the overall theme of the starters (performers) which felt much more coherent than Sword and Shield. His stage magician thing really reminds me of Tuxedo Mask.

#6 Primarina - His design is a little busy, but honestly he's everything I wanted out of Walrein.

#5 Arcanine - What is more appealing than a giant dog you can ride? Also, Fire Blast just about anything in the vicinity.

#4 Emolga - You put wings on Pachirisu. Thanks, I love it!

#3 Shaymin - Just an overall improvement on Celebi, this sweet little hedgegod turns into a brave, dashing reindeer when you're grateful for its efforts. You just want to keep working hard for it!

#2 Sylveon - She is beauty, she is grace, she...might be a dragon-slaying energy vampire? Sign me up!

#1 Pachurisu. The giant tail the booby-trapped food! It was everything I ever wanted out of Pikachu, with the ability to take a hit. I love this little guy.
