I'll list 10 just because I feel the list is too extensive. Plus, I'm pretty indecisive.
10. Lillipup
I was... Ugh... I was OBSESSED with this little puppy when Gen 5 was introduced. I seriously created a weird... Pokefusion based on this. Two other Pokemon were also Pokefused with another and I just cringe seeing my old artwork now. I don't know what I was thinking... Though, I still love this thing just because of its cry.
9. Purrloin/Liepard
I don't understand why some people resent it. I mean, I understand it's not all that reliable in Competitive, but I just LOVE its design. It's sort of like me kind of. Bit naive looking, but a complete and total bad*** (future me: Just realized. Calling myself a bad*** is an overstatement. I just burned myself big time). I remember seeing it in PokePark2, I hated it my first time trying to befriend it. Over time, I developed a love for this feline... And I'm a dog person XD
8. Zorua
Okay, before I continue. I happen to actually dislike Zoroark's evolution, it just seems more awkward than a KK Slider (Animal Crossing) video game model standing up. What I love about Zorua was just the way it was introduced both in the movie and in the games. Its cute look is what had me in awe, along with its ability (which was later useless after previews were introduced in Competitive *cough cough*). I like the designs for both the normal and shiny. I do believe red/black is... ERm... Outdated... (DON'T KILL ME. Please...) Though, I give props to the concept that Nintendo based it off of.
7. EEVEE!!!!!!!!!!!!! And others...
Hahah... I kid about the "and others" part. Sort of. I had some doubts when I first heard of this Pokemon, I understood why it was so sought after in many games with its capability of being 7 (now 8 ) other Pokemon via evolution. I love a majority of its evolutions, I like the concept art for all of them (except shiny Espeon, sorry if you do happen to like it. Just my opinion). My favorites of this family would be Leafeon, Vaporeon, Sylveon, Espeon, and Umbreon.
6. Misdreavus/Mismagius
These are the cutest ghosts I've ever seen. I love the idea behind their creations (despite how dark it is), they're cute and cause misfortune (I think you see the pattern behind my favorites now). I even have an OC of a Mismagius -- not on this site. I even made this a decoration on my school laptop once with it holding a gauntlet.
5. Litwick/Lampent/Chandelure
I originally found these annoying on their game debut. They're basically like the Zubats of the Graveyard to me. I found the idea behind them pretty creepy for my comfort... I grew to love it when PokePark2 came out and it became a boss, and when it became a character in Pokken Tournament. I find it annoying in Pokken too though (someone kept spamming ranged attacks, which I know that's how it plays but... They were stationary throughout the entire match). Though its Burst Attack is just... WOW!!!!!!!! It's so amazing. Here's a video of it if you don't know what I mean. It's just so beautiful and cute -- Ah, oh. I'm referring to its little smug laughter at the end.
4. Sneasel/Weavile
Another favorite, including in Pokken, which I loved when I originally played Pokemon Diamond. This was one of my favorite Ice-types too. I wish I had a plushie of it... AHem, resuming. Its artwork is just cool (ah? ah? ....I'll leave now), the feather-like design and its icy claws were just the best part of it. When it was introduced in Pokken, I immediately loved it once again and chose to main it just because of my love to the character. Its cuteness is even more amplified during its introduction (where it's sitting training/stretching), it's victory pose (sits and yawns, bored), and even when it messes up on ice shard (it yelps a bit before falling). It's just the cutest little assassin.
3. Popplio/Brionne/Primarina
ERm... I won't go far about it due to (one) the current rules about US and UM, and (two) the fact I haven't finished Sun and Moon itself. I like its concept design and its signature move. The idea of a Pop Star Seal is pretty unique and adorable. I wish this thing had a lil plushie with big eyes *squee*.
2. Absol/Mega Absol
OOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooohhhhhhh!!!! Okay, this is definitely one of the top 5! Ahem, ahem. Calm down. AHEM!! Okay, just 5 words can describe it: This. Thing. Is. A. BEAST. It's overall my favorite dark type next to Sneasel (in all fairness, they're tied as favorite dark-types). Fun Fact: When Mega Absol was introduced, I assumed its typing was Dark-Fairy. How I wish Nintendo did that, it would've complimented how Absol warns people of a disaster really well. Anywho, I loved this before it got a Mega Evolution -- HECK! Before Mega Pokemon became a thing! Absol is a cute lil' doggo with a SCYTHE on its head, this is basically what Ruby Rose would have as a partner (RWBY reference). Its shiny form is just gorgeous, I'd hunt on PokeMMO all day just to get a shiny Absol.
...Now for my favorite Pokemon of all time (as of writing this). Drum roll please! ...Oh, right. Computer. Welp!
My favorite Pokemon is...
1. Marshadow *blows party horn*
I don't know why I love this thing... Though just its concept art is cool looking and the idea that its based off of. If you don't know what it's based on, you really should check it out. Nintendo was pretty good making this mythological beast (it is a beast if you've seen its attack stat and Spectral Thief in action, even more of one if its speed is buffed). I think it has a pretty adorable cry and its lil' eyes before going battle forme are so cute. I love its attack animations, going from a cute docile lil' thing to a martial art master.
Welp. That's it...
After writing this, I realize that I have a weird mindset if a majority of my top 10s are dark-type (even weirder if you incorporate Japan's name typings: dark=evil) o_O
Please keep in mind. All of this is just my opinion. If you happen to love one of these Pokemon, yet hate how I spoke of them I do apologize. I even apologize if you happen to hate the Pokemon I favor.
Just please remember, we're sharing opinions there isn't a single good or bad Pokemon in the games. It just depends on your preference. I... Just happen to love dark-types alot.
