Falkner is epic incarnate. The Sanyou Trio follow, especially Corn since he looks like Falkner and Dent because it's effing DENT.
Also Byron.
I LOVE BYRON! *Background explosion*

Come to think of it, Fantina's a pretty cool guy too. She's French and doesn't afraid of anything.

[Suerte17]

1. Who's your favorite PLAYABLE CHARACTER?
Touya, definitely.

2. Who's your favorite RIVAL?
Blue. He was rude, but not whiny like Silver was.

3. Who’s your favorite GYM LEADER?
Volkner, Falkner, and Morty.

4. Who’s your favorite ELITE FOUR MEMBER/CHAMPION?
Elite Four: Aaron and Drake.
Champion: Steven. <3 He's classeh.

5. Who’s your favorite FRONTIER BRAIN?
N/A

6. Who’s your favorite PROFESSOR?
Birch. He was cool.

7. What’s your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM?
Team Magma. I always played Sapphire, but I preferred Magma's goal.

8. Who's your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM MEMBER/LEADER?
Maxie. He's bad enough without being completely insane.

 

[Draknir]

1. Who's your favorite PLAYABLE CHARACTER?
The male Character from Black and White.

2. Who's your favorite RIVAL?
Cheren.

3. Who’s your favorite GYM LEADER?
Giovanni. Team leader using a gym as cover? Awesome.

4. Who’s your favorite ELITE FOUR MEMBER/CHAMPION?
Any of the ones that use Dark and Dragon.

N. His goal is the least destructive.

9. Who's your favorite IN-GAME CAST CHARACTER?
Looker.

 

[AmericanPi]

1. Who's your favorite PLAYABLE CHARACTER?

Lyra, mostly because of the Anime. "Hey Dane [Dawn], is Ash your boyfriend?" That quote was just unforgettable. And Lyra still kept calling Dawn "Dane" despite Dawn's protests... haha. She also has her strangely lovable loudness. Too bad she had to leave so soon...

2. Who's your favorite RIVAL?

Silver. I like how he's so evil at first, but changes his views of the world near the end of the game. Barry's hyperactivity is funny, but there's something about Silver that just makes him a better rival than Barry. Maybe it's his red hair... <3

3. Who’s your favorite GYM LEADER?

It's a difficult choice between the three Flying-type Gym Leaders, Falkner, Winona, and Fuuro. Falkner has a cute, quirky speech about never letting anyone insult bird Pokemon (which I totally agree with), Winona has an epic shiny Swellow in the anime, and Fuuro's gym maze is the coolest gym maze, ever. I'll go with Falkner though; he's the toughest to beat (especially if you picked Chikorta as your starter), and his new artwork looks awesome... <3

4. Who’s your favorite ELITE FOUR MEMBER/CHAMPION?

Elite Four Member: I'll have to say Karen. I love her diva room, her great sense of style, and her famous quote: "Strong Pokemon. Weak Pokemon. That is the only selfish perception of people. True trainers try to win with the Pokemon they like best." That quote is just memorable. Plus she's really strong too; Umbreon is a pain to take down.

Champion: Wallace, once again because of the anime. He's a gym leader, regional champion, AND Top Coordinator. Now that's talent. And I just love his fans, wearing those Wallace hats...

5. Who’s your favorite FRONTIER BRAIN?

Emerald: I never played it, so I don't have any opinion on them...

Platinum: Dahlia. I just like how she's always happy, smiling, dancing, singing, spinning, and twirling... she's so happy for a Frontier Brain.

6. Who’s your favorite PROFESSOR?

Juniper. It's nice to FINALLY see a female professor; hurray Pokemon isn't sexist! Out of all the professors, her design is the coolest. She's stylish and smart at the same time (well, at least she's smart enough to be a professor); now that's cool.

7. What’s your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM?

Team Galactic. They're so evil, especially with their plan to destroy the world and create a new one; I like that. After all, they're villains! I really like the part of Galactic Battles when they get defeated; that was just epicness.

8. Who's your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM MEMBER/LEADER?

Butch. Mostly because of his running gag: "It's Cassidy! And Buffy! ARGH! The name is BUTCH!" That was just hilarious.

9. Who's your favorite IN-GAME CAST CHARACTER?

Kurt, because he gives you nice Pokeballs. Thank you Kurt, thank you for the Fast Balls I used to catch my Raikou!

 

[Skydra]

Who's your favorite PLAYABLE CHARACTER?
Touya, the male player character in B/W for those unfamiliar with the name. I prefer the coloration and attire to the other characters.

Who’s your favorite GYM LEADER?
Sabrina, for some reason... possibly because one of the first anime epsodes I saw included her. She uses cool Pokemon too (barring Jynx, ugh).
Fuuro and Kamitsure are nice too. Blue is cool and has a good backstory (possibly my favorite Rival too, since he fits both categories).

Who's your favorite IN-GAME CAST CHARACTER?
Riley, probably. He's got the best team of all the trainers that appear in the Battleground cafe, he gives you a free Riolu egg, and has some Aura powers.

Who’s your favorite ELITE FOUR MEMBER/CHAMPION?
Lance and Cynthia. Lance uses my favorite type, and Cynthia is both powerful and hot.

[The Wallflower]

1. Who's your favorite PLAYABLE CHARACTER?

2. Who's your favorite RIVAL?
(Gary, Silver, May/Brendan, Wally, Barry?)I love them all, but Silver wins because he is an emo. Or antihero, same thing. But he will soon be replaced by N, or Cheren...

3. Who’s your favorite GYM LEADER?
Well, Falkner's hot...And the first gym leader of D/P/P (forgot his name...) is cute too.

TEAM MEANIES lol no...I remember the villains in the Pokemon Ranger games as being rather interesting...and musical. But I like Magma/Aqua. Two teams of bad guys in one game, both with great fashion sense...

[XXD17]

Mars of Team Galactic

The maids in the Battle Pike

 

[charmedward]

Oh my turn!

1. Who's your favorite PLAYABLE CHARACTER?
Leaf (Yes I know that isn't her real name but Green/Blue would confuse people) I love her look and her personality in the manga. Actually when I played her three years ago in Leaf Green I looked almost identical to her, now my hair is a short red bob! Wonder who I look most like nowadays....

2. Who's your favorite RIVAL?
Both Gary and Silver have a place in my heart. I loved Silver's backstory and how his character grows during gameplay. Gary was always a funny guy even in the anime and I was sad to see him become a researcher. Luckily the games have him in his rightful place, eight gym leader!

3. Who’s your favorite GYM LEADER?
Like in all the regions? Yikes. Well Misty was cool for a billion reasons, mostly her personality. Sabrina was an interesting character. Claire and her attitude always made me laugh - at her-.

4. Who’s your favorite ELITE FOUR MEMBER/CHAMPION?
Lance, easily! Cool looking dragon dude? Yes please.

*skips five*

6. Who’s your favorite PROFESSOR?
Oak was of course a legend, and the Celebi movie only helped that impression. I love him as a supporting character and wish he could have appeared in Balck and White. Birch too is fab, in the anime he's dynamic and proud buddies with a poochyena pack! Man runs with dogs.

7. What’s your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM?
Team Rocket outside of the anime (seriously, in the anime they're nothing but fail) but I like their loyalty. Magma would be the group I'd join if I ever went bad! Fire pokemon all the way baby!! (Isn't Dim-Sun a type of chicken dish?)

8. Who's your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM MEMBER/LEADER?
Let's face it, they all failed. Regardless, I'll go for Giovanni as he's a better villain (You know, since most of the others repent and lose their character after angering a lengendary etc)

9. Who's your favorite IN-GAME CAST CHARACTER?
Bill, he helped to start the generations and even gave me an eevee for stopping by to say hi! I kicked *** with that eevee....

[Crobat Ray]

Playable character: Lyra. why?
Grandma: Umm ethan, is this your girlfriend?
lol
Rival: Silver. why?
He steals a crobat. I named him "N" tough. Transformation from red hair to green
Gym Leader: Janine. why?
She used poison pokes. and If she joins sppf she will always say:
Janine: Ninja'd
E4: Will.
Hes handsome and use psychic pokes. Handsome. Just..
...Release that Jynx. Lance too (I hate him but the music... lol)
Frointer Brain: Havent beat one.
Why? Im on 18th stroke and my skuntank is locked into a choiced poison jab, so be it.

nuff said
Criminal team: TEAM GALACTICZ. Why?
The admins use My Favourite pokes (Aka Cyrus' Crobat, Toxicroak, Purugly, and Skuntank)
Criminal team leader: Cyrus. why?
Hes handsome
And I said it thrice.
Npc: Marleymarleymarleymarley
Shes the most epic and awesome thing that have exists on the pokeman world (lol) She used speed pokes and crobat too.

Sorry I troll too much

 

[Lucario770]

1. Who's your favorite PLAYABLE CHARACTER?
Red. He's the original.

2. Who's your favorite RIVAL?
Gary, just because he's so nasty. Silver and Barry are also good, but just can't match Gary's awesome personality.

3. Who’s your favorite GYM LEADER?
I like a lot of em. Giovanni and Blue are both awesome from Kanto. Master Chuck is classic. Brock is the best in the Anime. Norman is really cool too, while Crasher Wake is just a beast. Can't really pick a "one" here though.

4. Who’s your favorite ELITE FOUR MEMBER/CHAMPION?
Hard to say, as i don't think they are as star studded as the Gym Leaders of Frontier Brains. Lance is awesome, but I'll give the nod to Bruno here. His anime appearence was just plain out amazing.

5. Who’s your favorite FRONTIER BRAIN?
Pyramid King Brandon. BY FAR. No contest here, he is hands down the greatest.

6. Who’s your favorite PROFESSOR?
They still haven't topped Professor Oak yet. The original Pokemon Professor is still the best. Still, I'd say the others are all good in their own ways.

7. What’s your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM?
Galactic had a nice ingame storybut were slightly odd.. Aqua and Magma were copies of each other. Rocket was the best, as they did flat out nasty things, and were releatable to real world villains.

8. Who's your favorite CRIMINAL, TEAM MEMBER/LEADER?
I liked Cyrus for being a deranged nut. "The Thinker" from Guardian signs was ok. Giovanni was pretty cool. But you can't beat Mirror B. and his talent for dancing with Ludicolos.
9. Who's your favorite IN-GAME CAST CHARACTER?
Looker was good. Ranger Murph was good. Scott was good. However, nobody in this category was "great".

 

[superjesus1]

1. Who's your favorite PLAYABLE CHARACTER?
Ethan/Gold - i don't know why, he just seems the most interesting to me

2. Who's your favorite RIVAL?
Gary/Blue definitely - the most satisfying to win a battle against anyway due to all tha arrogant talk before hand

3. Who’s your favorite GYM LEADER?
Hmm tough one, probably Misty as Starmie is awesome

4. Who’s your favorite ELITE FOUR MEMBER/CHAMPION?
Elite Four: definitely Aaron - Scizor & Yanmega but Lorelei comes close second
Champion: Cynthia - she's just so much better than the other champions (asides Gary/Blue but i already have him as my favourite rival hehe)

5. Who’s your favorite FRONTIER BRAIN?
Darach/Caitlin - its still unclear who really is the brain/head but still, i like their teams and the fact they take on challengers in a castle

6. Who’s your favorite PROFESSOR?
Oak - original is best in this case

7. What’s your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM?
Team Rocket - original is best again, but it's a case of them having the most evil goal - exploitation of pokemon to get lots of money and power - which makes them more criminal than the other teams to me

8. Who's your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM MEMBER/LEADER?
Giovanni - a complete rip off of a Mafia boss but still, he's the greatest one of the team leaders!
