Poll: What's Your Favourite Gen 7 Pokémon?

BEST GEN!

ROWLET BEST POKEMON!

THANK YOU FOR COMING TO MY TED TALK!

As much as I love Kommo-o, I have to give my vote to Incineroar.

Sun/Moon had the starter's final evolutions leaked way before release date, and the genuine concern people had online that Litten would become another fire/fighting type upon seeing Incineroar's design was entertaining.

Winners:
Gen 1 - Charizard
Gen 2 - Umbreon
Gen 3 - Rayquaza
Gen 4 - Lucario
Gen 5 - Chandelure
Gen 6 - Greninja
Gen 7 - tbd

Litten for the win!

Kartana for me.

ROWLET, MY BOI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@UpsideDownRowlet Great minds think alike!

Another favorite of mine. Tough choice between Decidueye and Palossand. I'll go with Decidueye.

There are actually quite a few Gen 7 Pokemon I like - too many to list out. I went with Robbin 'Ood Decidueye - probably my favorite grass starter.

I'm not sure Ultra Beasts are technically Pokemon - this is canonically debated - so I'm gonna cheat and list another favorite: Guzzlord. It's so wonderfully Eldritch, and I'm ridiculously fond of my nicknamed Lord Om Nom.

I picked Rowlet because it was the only name I recognized. Then I saw it was winning the poll overwhelmingly 😂

These names are even more made up! I feel like an old man trying to read through this list.

Lycanroc my GOAT!

Easiest Gen to answer. Rowlet, the most perfect pokemon ever created. Shoutout to Mimikyu as well though as another of my all time favorites.

The Electric type Oricorio for me. Loved it's cheerleader/pom-pom theme.

I like Komala's design a lot

Silvally. I'm not really sure why tbh, I just love my cool misunderstood* Franken-Arceus.

(*Misunderstood in the in-game lore I mean)

I personally think Gen 7 had the strongest theming and Pokémon designs. So many great ones to choose from but I got to go with the cutest Pokémon in the entire dex, Steenee.

I voted vikavolt it I love it's design and used it on my in game teams in both games shame it evolved late ( the ultra games fixed that). Other favorites include Incineroar, Lycanrock, Toucannon, Araquanid, and Solgaleo.

my favourite gen by faaaaar....

This is gonna be an unpopular opinion, but Gen VII is my least favorite Gen of the franchise. There are not a lot of Pokemon designs I like, with Bruxish been the worst.

As for my favorite Pokemon, its easily Zeraora which is who I voted for. Shoutout to Rockruff, Litten, Torracat, Popplio, Brionne, Mimikyu, Golisopod, Steenee, Lurantis, Mareanie, Vikavolt & of course, Rowlet (I think the Anime has a lot to do with his popularity), who are probably the only other Gen VII Pokemon I would use honestly.

Edit: Forgot about the Alolan forms, Alolan Ninetales is easily up there as a favorite of mine with the Alolan variants of Exeggutor, Raichu, Sandslash & Vulpix been up there too.

Rowlet. Owls are my favourite real-world creatures, and Rowlet is adorable.

Mimikyu

I was dreading this one! Gen 7 had some of the best additions to competitive Pokémon, but I think Mimikyu is great on any team and is by far the easiest to utilize.

Mimikyu's ability Diguise, allows it to get hit once without taking damage, giving it so much versitility that it's hard to ignore. You can do a lot with that much freedom, the most common being an almost unthreatened Swords Dance. Ghost / Fairy is also great typing! Shadow Claw / Shadow Sneak & Play Rough are all this Pokémon needs to pressure most opponents.

Mimikyu. I love a good design that tells a story. Double points if it's a bit tragic 👍
This is only the second of these polls I haven't had to think about my answer. And that's cool as this gen is one of the stronger ones in my opinion.

Mine is Primarina. I was so happy that the quirky clown-like Popplio became something beautiful in the end. Really, all three starters are fantastic, which was a first for me.

I loved playing Sun. It brought me back to Pokemon after many, many years. I couldn’t get good at competitive battles or collecting many Pokemon, but just playing through the story was an experience in itself. I loved the human characters, the twisty story, the music, and many of the new Pokemon. Solgaleo, Alolan Marowak, Midday Lycanroc, Tsareena and Toucannon were also favorites in my team. The Ultra Beasts were cool. I even had fun following Sun and Moon on Miiverse, limited as it was.

I sadly fell off the Pokemon wagon again, but this gen will always be special to me. It proved that Pokemon can get me to come back when it gets enough right!

Salazzle is pretty great, Guzzlord is also so overdesigned and awful that it kind of loops back to being great for me, I do also like Alolan Meowth a whole lot.

overall this gen has a decent selection of Pokemon but not too many standouts.

Lots of awesome designs here, despite being (in my opinion) the worst generation of starters. I love all the creative designs like Toxapex, Shiinotic, Pyukumuku, Golisopod, Komala, and the cockroach queen Pheromosa.

But my favorite has to be Salandit, such a cute design, and I love that it gets the interesting Corrosion ability. Even though I accidentally trained a male through my first run of Pokémon Moon, not realizing only the females evolved, that gives it a special memory, even if it was frustrating at the time.

When it comes to other creatures, this Cubone fan must choose Alolan Marowak for Favorite Alolan Form. Momma came back from the dead with a bone to pick!

My favorite Ultra Beast is probably Buzzwole, but even though I didn’t play Moon, Guzzlord is definitely the good stuff of nightmares…

Mimikyu with it's gimmick of having a broken neck for the win!

Never clicked Popplio so fast.
Love that bouncy little seal boy.
A great gen overall for new Pokemon, there’s a lot of really inspired designs that even tie into the Hawaiian culture the game takes place in.

Kalos and Alola started my trend of "liking" some Pokemon from newer gens but never having one to call my favourite (until Flamigo)

So I went with a Pokemon I "like" and have a personal attachment to, Mudsdale. I did use one on my first Moon playthrough (Stamina during main story fights is broken by the way) but it became a favourite in the next generation. I was in the Wild Area in Shield, and I swerved on my bike to avoid a Growlithe charging at me and ran into a random encounter in the grass. Bam, shiny Mudbray. This was while I was doing my first playthrough of the game so no shiny charm or anything yet. One of my only 2 pre-easy (Lets Go and ScarVi) shinies along with a random Rhyhorn in X that I still have.

I feel that this list is missing something by not including regional forms, a concept introduced in this gen.

Marshadow all day loooong

Mimikyu is my favourite pokemon. Glad I found it cuz I forgot it was a gen 7 mon

Xurkitree. I love all the UBs but only one of them can be found behind my tv
