>Croagunk
To be honest it's a tough pick between Croagunk and Toxicroak because I love both of their designs to death (poison dart frogs + muay thai fighters? pinch me i must be dreaming), but Croagunk's canon personality in the anime/games kind of sealed the deal for me. I love Poison types, I love rude and mischievous pokemon, and I prefer his moveset (albeit a bit shallow) over other Poison pokemon, mostly because of its typing I suppose. Sure, base stats aren't exceptional by any means, but it's always been a super reliable teammate to me.
>Golurk
I didn't immerse myself too much in the new Gen V pokémon when the game was released and I would rather just play and keep the surprise factor. The second I saw Shauntal's Golurk, I was immediately head over heels for his design and concept (I had obviously already seen Golett in Dragonspiral tower before this, but I assumed it was an single-stage pokémon). My B/W Golurk (named him Superman, you 3 guesses why) was raised from a lvl 2 Golett and he's been my favorite wallbreaker ever since. A+++ Gen V bro.
>Drifblim
Typing, design, and its grisly Pokedex entry. I'm usually kind of wary of two-stage pokemon that evolve early on, but Drifblim is an addition that I absolutely do not regret. Also its cry is hilarious.
>Togetic
It started with Togepi hatching from the Odd Egg from my first Crystal playthrough. At that time I was too young to play competitively, all I knew was that the moveset was great and it was working. I also had no idea that Togepi had received a new evolution branch in Gen II, so when he evolved into Togetic I damn near shit myself. Maybe it's more sentimental than anything else, but Togetic was definitely my Gen II bro, I wish there was a way to have him back again.
>Scrafty
I'm not going to deny that the Scraggy line is similar to Croagunk, especially since I love Scrafty for many of the same reasons. Also the guy wears his molted face skin as a hoodie. Neato.
Honestly couldn't think of a 6th.
