Bulbasaur. Years ago, I mentioned he looked like a garlic bulb so my kid gave me her plastic toy Bulbasaur and now he sits on the windowsill as the patron saint of my kitchen.

Snorlax. He's just so relatable.
Gengar!
Bulbasaur. Sweet little onion baby is number one in the dex and number one in our hearts.
Haunter, I always liked the floating hands and big smile!
Mew
I'm a simple guy, Charizard.
Are you working at gamefreak by chance?
Excellent taste.

(Serious now: I love Tropius. You'll probably remember him as the banana dinosaur HM slave. Fucking awesome design.)
Eevee!
Alakazam
As a child I trained a Kadabra to level 100 because another kid told me this is when it evolved.
Nope! We did eventually trade back and forth - but those 2 minutes of my newly evolved level 100 Alakazam on my friend's cartridge demanded an insane level of trust between two 10 year olds. That shit was intense!
Laughed so much at this, thanks
Salamance
Man I've got a lot. Pokémon's got some good character designs, but my top two have to be Victini and Gengar.
Ubreon, shiny is so cool
Likitung!! He’s always so happy!
Litten. Its soo cute
sandshrew forever, with a long trail of mostly ground and ghost runner ups
Chansey
Militank! :D
Crobat!
I honestly can't choose. I love too many of them. Some of my favorites are clefable, pikachu, vaporeon, palafin, armarouge, absol, meowscarada/sprigatito, grovyle, corviknight, ampharos, wooloo... just too many!
Psyduck! C'mon, he's a duck with a headache.
Deoxys
Charizard FTW! 😊
I always thought golem was super cool, but it wasn't advantageous against the elite four.
Rayquaza. It looks cool, it's powerful and it has a cool role. What's not to love? Plus, it's one of the few Pokémon with a good looking shiny.
Always wanted a pet Wingull since I played Emerald. I need to evolve it if it's actually going to fight though
It's not strong at all since it's a pretty early route mon, but definitely the buizel line. Grafaiai just barely first place for me, but I absolutely love that as well.
Totodile. Elementary school me picked him at random when I played HeartGold (still hadn't wrapped my head around the whole touchscreen thing IIRC) and I loved the little guy.
Mimikyu is adorable!
Ho-oh. I don't know why but it's been my favorite ever since I first saw it
Umbreon! I have a tattoo on my forearm, but I got it as a poor and dumb college kid, so I'm getting it reworked in September by an artist that will do it justice!
Big fan of Togekiss. I know it's not exactly great, but I had a good run in my local meta running a serene grace Togekiss special sweep. Good times
Snorlax is my spirit Pokémon
Dragonite
Sylveon, but I’ve got a soft spot for the Gen 1 starters too.
Misdreavus!
Scraggy
Lucario!
Love me some Girafarig
Cinccino!!
Mine is also Gengar! (if the profile pic didn't give it away)
Houndoom! With Bulbasaur as closed 2nd.
Bidoof is the best, sweet little guys. Who only gey dunked on nearly as bad as Magikarp.
My favorite Pokémon has been poliwag ever since I played Pokémon blue for the first time. He so adorable and becomes a very powerful Pokémon. I remember catching him early on in Crystal version and making him my starter Pokémon.
