>>40181550>KantoDitto: sick (possibly sickest of Kanto) lore, cool ability
or
Slowpoke: for the exact same reason
>JohtoSlowking: great design, great capabilities (human speech, superintelligence, etc.), and the lore continuation from Slowpoke, but less interestingly
>HoennSwellow: it's gotta be; you have no idea how awesome and deadly Orb-holding Guts Facade is; Swellow was my killer Pokemon for the longest time, and for that, I will always appreciate it, even if its design is drab and lore non-existent
>SinnohTorterra: most awe-inspiring final evo starter ever, really clever concept and virtually flawless design; strong too
or
Dusknoir: an awesome finish to a great evolutionary line; its subtle allusions in its design and enigmatic ethology combine with its daunting presence, frightful abilities, impressive stat spread and movelist
>UnovaCryogonal: nice design, albeit too cryptic; one of the few that feels like it could have come from an earlier generation, which was sorely lacking in new Pokemon designs from Unova onward
>KalosAvalugg: same deal as Cryogonal, but better executed
>AlolaOranguru: everything else just falls short for me; I like intelligent Pokemon anyway, plus it's got a serviceable movepool
