Sorry guys. I couldn't resist, but that's quite enough of that. ^_^
Day 17: Water Type (for real this time)
5. Feraligatr
It's my beautiful, ugly beast. <3 Feraligatr so much. This information will undoubtably come as a surprise to some of you, but cuteness isn't everything. I practically solo'd the entirity of Crystal with just my Feraligatr, Precious. Yes, Precious. I wasn't great with nicknames as a kid. >_>
4. Wartortle
Wartortle is the dark horse of its line. It really never gets enough love, and that makes ne sad. I consider it cuter than Squirtle (that fluffy tail!) and cooler than Blastoise (it's a turtle with FANGS!). Seriously. Never enough love for this poor little guy.
3. Suicune
Suicune is not only my favorite Legendary Water type, but my favorite Legendary ever. I might have placed Cobalion higher, but that's only because Fighting is a far less competitive list for choice favorites.
2. Vaporeon
Vaporeon is <3. I hope I'm not sounding like red13 when I say this but Vaporeon is just gorgeous. It's sleek, and it's beautiful and its pretty face belies a little powerhouse. It's by far my favorite Eeveelution and will forever hold a high place in my heart. But not as high as...
1. Dewott
What I said before was true. I didn't always love Dewott, but I very quickly learned the error of my official artwork-trusting ways. If all I'd ever seen of Dewott was its Ken Sugimori drawing, it would not be here at all. But oh my goodness, its fanart... Dewott has the single best fanart collection of any pokémon I have ever bothered up looking uup fanart for, and I've looked up fanarts for hundreds of pokémon. People love Dewott- people who happen to be great artists, and I love this. Dewott is not only the peak of its line, but in my opinion, it is the peak of all Water starters, and I love pretty much every Water starter. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
Honorable Mention: Milotic Milotic just barely steals this HM from Ludicolo (a cult favorite apparently). Milotic is crazy strong, andcan learn a multitude of different type moves that makes it a competitive beast. Not only that, but it's strikingly beautiful. I love the parallels between the Magikarp/Gyrarados and Feebas/Milotic lines. One is a weak fish that, with love and patience, evolves into something incredibly strong; and the other an ugly fish that, with effort and love, evolves into something incredibly beautiful. It's pretty epic.

It's... gotta be the worst monkey. I do not enjoy looking at it. It's just... uncomfortable, like watching a guy prance around in high-heeled pumps and a dress.
106. Phione
Baby legendary. Best idea ever. /sarcasm
107. Bassculin
Oooh lookie here! It's the same species of pokémon that have minor differences in appearance based on where they're caught. Come the f*** on GameFreak, we already had this same gimmick with Shellos and it is much better than this filler piece of crap.
108. Feebass
Just because I like its backstory doesn't mean I have to like it too... >_> Also, in Gen3 (its introduction) this guy was the largest of pains in the ass to catch. Like... it was beyond ridiculous.
109. Luvdisc
Seriously. Enough said.
Dishonorable Mention: Huntail I hate this guy... What's the worst thing is that I picked the Deep Sea Fang on my first blind playthrough of Sapphire because it sounded cool, and ended up with him. I was so pissed when I learned of the alternative. Not that either are that great but Huntail went straight to the Box never to be heard from again.

You can never hate Ludicolo again after you play Colosseum. True story.

Honestly I was about to call troll but I remembered you already put up a troll list during these topics and didn't think you would do it twice because that would be mad lame. So I just went with rage mode. Baited. Stay free me. >_>
My heart rate's returned to normal though after the "real" list.
mnkboy907 posted... Oh, I kind of still expected Starmie to be in the bottom.
Well to be perfectly honest with all of you I don't really like Blastoise or Starmie. My feelings on Starmie border on indifference and very mild dislike and my feelings for Blastoise is just plain dislike.
But of course neither is in my bottom five when things like Luvdisc exist. Starmie's not even in my bottom 50 now that I think about it. I think you might be confusing me with Silver_Ermine. He hates, hates, hates Starmie.

This list is better, but the last one wasn't that bad for me. I never got the love for the Wotter/Oshawott line though. Their design always seemed bad to me from the 3 starter reveal for White and Black. Then again, I usually only like cute and elegant Pokémon and the anime has no influence on me.
I meant to start an hour ago, but I got distracted is how it's going. I'll start in ten minutes.
Expect the results in an hour depending on how Photobucket feels like acting (it was miserably slow yesterday). I need to switch to imgcake or something.
