Greetings Pokefans! Michael here.
If you're wondering why the setup is completely different, you probably missed last week's
announcement video. So real quick, I'll summarize what's up: I'm a full time youtuber
now, I'm posting to my 2nd channel again, I've started streaming on twitch, I've
launched a Patreon where you can support me if you want, AND I'm giving away a Nintendo
Switch. Links to all of those things are in the description below, if you're interested.
Which you should be.
But anyways, welcome everyone to my first Top 10 as a full time YouTuber! Top 10s are
going to be a lot more frequent now that this is my job, so I hope you're excited. I definitely
am.
And since this is my first Top 10 as a full time YouTuber, I thought it would be fitting
to start a new Top 10 mini series by counting down my favorite Pokémon from every generation,
starting with the original 151 of Kanto. There weren't any Gen 1 Pokémon on my updated
Top 10 Favorite Pokémon list, so this list should be a totally new cast of characters
for me to talk about. Well, at least since my Top Pokémon of Every Type. But things
have changed a bit since that video.
So be sure to leave a like on the video, comment below some of your favorite Kanto Pokémon,
and subscribe if you haven't, and without further ado, here are my Top 10 Favorite Kanto
Pokémon.
Number 10 - Gyarados
If you've been paying attention to my video backgrounds for awhile, you may have guessed
that I like Gyarados. If you did guess that, nice work. You're very astute.
But even though you may know I like Gyarados, I've never really discussed why. So now
I will! I think Gyarados is really cool, because not only does it look super awesome, I think
it has one of the best "stories" I guess you could call it.
I love the idea that Gyarados starts out as one of the weakest Pokémon in existence,
but if a dedicated trainer is willing to put in the time and effort to train it up, it
turns into the raging terrifying sea monster that can destroy towns singlehandedly. To
me it seems that anyone with a Gyarados is someone to be respected, and I like that about
it.
Number 9 - Blastoise
Sceptile was the first Pokémon I ever played through a game with, and Blastoise was the
second. When LeafGreen came out, I started with a Squirtle that I aptly named Squirt
and trained it up into a powerful Blastoise. I beat pretty much the entire game with only
it since I didn't understand the concept of a team at this point, so I'll always
have a bit of nostalgic attachment to Blastoise.
And of course as many people agree, it looks awesome. It has freakin cannons coming out
of its shell. Definitely one of the most creative designs out there.
Number 8 - Aerodactyl
Not only does Aerodactyl have one of the coolest Pokémon names in existence, it's also probably
my favorite prehistoric Pokémon. It might also be Archeops but I tend to lean toward
Aerodactyl a bit more since it doesn't have one of the dumbest abilities ever created.
Like Gyarados, I like Aerodactyl because of how fearsome it looks. It looks a lot like
one of the most terrifying and ferocious apex predators of dinosaur times, BUT IT CAN ALSO
FLY. Could you imagine hearing this thing screech and seeing its wings cover up the
sun? Talk about blood chilling. And of course, really cool when you don't actually have
to experience it.
Number 7 - Rhydon
I have always thought Rhydon was an excellently designed Pokémon. I think it captures the
spirit of Pokémon well. And when I say that, I don't mean like what Lampent does where
it literally steals people's spirits. What I mean is that Rhydon looks like what a Pokémon
should: a monster, but a monster that you wouldn't want to kill, rather one that you
would want fighting by your side.
I haven't used Rhydon a whole lot, but there are three instances that have made me like
it a bit more. The first is that I used a Rhydon in my first playthrough of Gen 1, which
was Yellow version on the virtual console last year, and he was excellent in most every
battle. The second was that I had a Rhyhorn as my buddy Pokémon for months in Pokémon
Go. My patience and walking paid off, and now it's a Rhydon that's one of my strongest
Pokémon. And finally, I found a shiny Rhydon using the Pokeradar all the way back in the
early days of Gen 4, that I still have by the way. Rhydon is just a really awesome Pokémon,
and I think the fact that it was the first Pokémon ever designed was a good omen for
the rest of the franchise.
Number 6 - Bulbasaur
It's a running gag on the internet that Bulbasaur is the worst Kanto starter, and
while its battling capabilities prior to mega evolving are generally inferior to the other
two, at least from what I've experienced, I still really like it. I think Bulbasaur
is really cute and has a great design, and I love how it shoots its solar beam from the
bulb on its back. That's really creative.
I also admittedly have grown more attached to Bulbasaur because of my Pokémon Talk series.
That series is a big hit and really fun for me to make, and bringing the perpetually annoyed
but good-hearted character of Bulbasaur to life is something I thoroughly enjoy doing.
Number 5 - Scyther
There are only a couple bug type Pokémon that I really like, and Scyther is definitely
one of them. I think a big contributor to my liking of it over most other bug Pokémon
is the fact that even though it's a bug, its face looks reptilian, and as I've discussed
before, I like reptilian Pokémon a lot.
And similarly to other Pokémon on this list, Scyther looks totally fierce. Its body gives
the impression it was designed for combat, and having both its arms end in giant blades
is such a cool design decision. It may not be ideal for anything except fighting but
that doesn't change the fact that Scyther is awesome. Also, it was extremely cool in
Pokémon Origins.
Number 4 - Nidoking
I feel similarly toward Nidoking as I do toward Rhydon: I think it is an excellent example
of Pokémon design. Turning a normally small and feeble creature like a mouse into a spiky,
ripped monster is the perfect example of Pokémon evolution. But above all else, Nidoking just
looks so freaking awesome, and its cry is epic.
I've never played through a game with Nidoking before, mainly because its evolutionary line's
level-up learnset is hot garbage, but every time I see someone using one I gain quite
a bit of respect for them. Including the Twitch Plays Pokémon squad. You rule King Fonz.
Number 3 - Charizard
Charizard is my favorite of the final evolved Kanto starters and was once a member of my
Top 10 Favorite Pokémon. I think his design is simple yet fitting, and I love that you
can fly around Alola with him in Sun and Moon. Ash's is also extremely entertaining.
Charizard wasn't always at the top though, since my affinity for Blastoise overshadowed
Charizard for quite some time. What made me really love Charizard was Mega Charizard X.
I adore the black coloring with blue fire, and a Mega Charizard X I nicknamed Demon was
the first fully perfect competitive Pokémon I ever bred. Some people may think Charizard
gets too much special treatment, but it will always be one of my favorites.
Number 2 - Tauros
Tauros is a simple Pokémon, but I really like that about it. They simply took a cool
animal like a bull and made it even cooler. It looks simultaneously majestic and powerful,
and it is easily the best bovine Pokémon out there. Miltank? Yeah no.
Tauros also kicks a TON of butt in Gen 1. Because critical hits were calculated based
on speed in Gen 1, Tauros's high base speed makes it so it has slightly over a 20% chance
to critical hit EVERY TIME IT ATTACKS. Stack that with STAB moves like Body Slam and Hyper
Beam and a base 100 attack stat, and you have one of the strongest Pokémon in all of Generation
1. Because of all that, I made sure to catch one and use it on my team in my Yellow playthrough,
and kicking so much butt with it is what really made me love Tauros.
Number 1 - Squirtle
I bet you weren't expecting this were you? Charizard may be my favorite FULLY EVOLVED
Kanto starter, but Squirtle is my favorite Kanto starter. Why? Well, first off it's
freaking adorable. Just look at this cute little guy. Cutest Gen 1 Pokémon hands down.
But in addition to it's adorable appearance, I also have a lot of history with Squirtle.
Like I mentioned before, Squirtle was the first Kanto Starter I ever picked back in
LeafGreen, but before I started playing the games and discovered Treecko, Squirtle was
my favorite Pokémon. I loved that Ash had one on his team, and my favorite Pokémon
plushie as a kid was a Squirtle plushie. A plushie that many of you are likely very familiar
with.
*play funny Squirtle clip from PT*
That's right, Squirtle from Pokémon Talk has been around since I was about 7 years
old, and bringing him to life by creating this wacky, hilarious character that so many
of you love has only made me adore Squirtle even more. Blastoise may not be at the top
of my favorite fully evolved starters, but Squirtle is 2nd only to Treecko when it comes
to what you start with, because for me, Squirtle was a big reason my love of Pokémon started
in the first place.
So there we have it! Those are my Top 10 Favorite Kanto Pokémon. I'm looking forward to making
videos about the other regions as well, since this is a fun way for me to talk about my
love for certain Pokémon that I don't always get to discuss.
