Well, that's a no brainer. Arceus so I can make my own goddamn universe with MORE than one Pokeyman.

Absol would be great. It is small enough to be a good pet, but still large enough to defend itself or me in case something happens.

But the best thing would be that it could predict when bad things are going to happen to me or others and warn me.

Awesome and useful? I'll take one!

i would go with torterra. why? for one i love turtles, and it has a tree growing out of its back. use that to like sit under or just have it carry you to the mall (very slowly) while you sit under its tree and read a book or something.

Actually, you would probably die grimacing screaming from the excruciating, intolerable pain. Hopefully death would be short, unless you happened to roll a Gyarados with a penchant for torturing people. In which case, you're screwed.

EDIT: Screaming works better there.
I meant you'd be laughing up until the moment where you can be considered utterly, utterly fucked. The moment Magikarp glows white and you know you can't run far enough away in time.

Also, there's no guarantee that the weak, cute ones aren't sentient. incapable of communicating with humans? Sure. But they're definitely much more intelligent than their real-world equivalents. "Often lost in thought" is an a personality descriptor in the game.

And for the record, that groudon was trained to 100, and my espeon was 80. Granted, she scored a critical hit and the trainer in question could have completely ignored his Special Attack or something, but it's still possible.

... and Darkrai would probably just float around my area destroying people's psyches.
... Okay, you got me there. That made me laugh.
Who knows how I'd befriend them? That wasn't part of the thread. Sure, Scizor, Darkrai and Tyranitar would be easier than Dialga and Giratina, but that can go for most Pokés. I'm sure I can find common ground, even if it's just me asking questions about everything since the beginning of time.

I suppose sentient isn't the right word. The point is, the weaker Pokémon tend to be little more than actual animals. Sure, they can understand humans better than their real-world counterparts, but they couldn't offer actual understanding and communication like Metagross or any of the other intelligent/psychic/telepathy Pokémon. If I wanted a rodent, I could go buy one. If I wanted a companion, I can get a cat or dog. If I was able to get a Pokémon, I'd get something that is totally incredible.

Fighting isn't my main concern - I tend to use Pokémon that I think are cool, with the exception of Darkrai, who, while moderately cool, is mostly just to help capture Legendaries. Dark Void + Bad Dreams + speed. Useful stuff.

That Groudon must've been awful in the special defence then, because to One-Hit a higher-level Legendary with just a critical hit and no super effective is ridiculous.

And yes, a real-world Darkrai would be amusing to watch.

Back on topic, I'm going to have to say Pikachu. I know a lot of people are going to say "Oh look! He chose Pikachu as a favorite. How original."

Well shut up! I liked Pikachu in the game BEFORE the show even came out.

This just gave me a hilarious mental image of a trainer and Dialga just sort of standing in an awkward silence at Spear Pillar.

"So... Er... You come here often?"

"... Rawr."

Cut to five minutes later and they're sitting there with a couple of beers (Dialga has several drained kegs by his side).

"So I says to her, I, I says, 'Ya jus' can't do that, ya know? That jus' ain't right, man. Ya know? Ya know what I'm saying?"

"Raaawr, rawr. *nod, hiccup*"

"I love you, man."

See? Who needs Pokéballs.

Squirtle because he was my first or Growlithe because I love dogs. My first inclination was to choose Arceus so I could control god, but I feel like that might blow up in my face somehow. Sci-fi movies have taught me playing god leads to nothing but damnation

Err I'd choose Starmie, purely on functionality.
Chicks would dig starmie.
It has the ability Natural Cure.
Also Starmie can know Recover, Thunder, Blizzard, Hydro Pump, Psychic, Twister, Raindance, Camoflage, Minimise, Confuse ray... the list goes on of fun and functional abilities, which would prettymuch let me control the weather!!
According to the anime, Starmie can be ridden like a jet ski.
