Mewtwo | I was going to put Charizard but then I realised that'd be fucking unoriginal so I picked Mewtwo as my favourite. He's so fun to use in Smash, is fucking broken in this game and has a cool design.

Feraligatr | This is one of 3 times I wouldn't pick the fire starter in the game. One of them you'll see later, but the other is either Snivy or Oshawott I can't decide lol. But anyway, Feraligatr is awesomely designed and well executed.

Blaziken | Best Pokemon, no question.

Lucario | I mean, he's fucking Lucario.

Zoroark | Such a cool Pokemon both designwise and conceptwise. A cooler Ditto.

Greninja | He kicks so much ass in the X&Y anime, and his shiny is the definition of perfection. My former Smash main and my second favourite Pokemon, shame he's from such a forgettable game.

Incineroar | I know this is a hot take, but I loved him before Smash.

Cinderace | I mean, he's so well designed and thank god he's not fire fighting otherwise the pokemon community would be pissed even more.
