Professor Oak.

Hi, I like shorts, they are comfy and easy to wear!

Hyuck-Hyuck-Hyuck!

Bye-bye-a-go-go!


The random NPCs are the best.

Resident Jedi Master
1. Who's your favorite PLAYABLE CHARACTER?
Right now I'm stuck with Red as he and Ash are so similar. He's also a badass up on Mt. Silver.

2. Who's your favorite RIVAL?
Favorite has to be Gary, as his catchphrase is the most memorable. Most the rivals are related to the professor now that you mention it. :/

3. Who’s your favorite GYM LEADER?
Brock.
Need I say more?

4. Who’s your favorite ELITE FOUR MEMBER/CHAMPION?
I really don't have one, but Bruno's pretty cool.

5. Who’s your favorite FRONTIER BRAIN?
Palmer because of his cool Rhyperior.

6. Who’s your favorite PROFESSOR?
Professor Oak!
C'mon Gramps!

7. What’s your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM?
Team Rocket mainly because of Jessie, James and Meowth. There actually the meanest out of all the groups too.

8. Who's your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM MEMBER/LEADER?
The one person I loved to hate was Saturn as he was SO annoying!

9. Who's your favorite IN-GAME CAST CHARACTER?
This really is a hard one, but I would have to say the person that gives you an Eevee each game.
 

CharcoalBlaze

Doesn't like Mudkips
1. The one from Gold/Silver. The guy. The reason I didn't say Red was because he isn't badass until your not the one playing him. Before he got on that mountain, he was you, he was me, but then he became a god...
2. Gary Oak, because he's the only one that was really a rival. Silver was just some jerk you didn't know, the rest were more friendly competitors than anything.
3. This is hard. I like Misty, but probably just because of the anime, so... I dunno.
4. I liked Cynthia until Adeku came along. Because that's his name in the Japanese version, wouldn't his name be Adek because the Japanese add "U"s to everything? Because that was my player name in Silver and Soul Silver. The name means "of noble birth" and is often associated with wolves and werewolves. Come to think of it, he kinda looks like an Arcanine... Why'd they have to change his name?
5. Never met one.
6. Professor Oak, baby!!! I wish he was MY grandpa!
7. Team Rocket holds a place in my heart. Plasma DOES sound like PETA... Funny, because for years I've always said that if Pokemon were real, PETA would ruin it.
8. Cyrus was pretty cool.
9. Definately Marley. Sexy goth chick whose main Pokemon is an Arcanine? Hell yeah! Even if it would have been more appropriate if it was a Houndoom... XD

1. Who's your favorite PLAYABLE CHARACTER?
The male character from HG/SS. I like his design better than the rest, closely followed by the female in FR/LG.

2. Who's your favorite RIVAL?
I'll have to go with the rival from D/P/Pt. It's refreshing to have a rival who's a friend, that isn't a jerk to you in the games.

3. Who’s your favorite GYM LEADER?
Hmm... Tough one. I really like Fantina and Clair.

4. Who’s your favorite ELITE FOUR MEMBER/CHAMPION?
I really like Pheobe, with her cute little hair flowers and sarong. I prefer Cynthia as a champion.

5. Who’s your favorite FRONTIER BRAIN?
From the emerald frontier, I really dig Pike Queen Lucy. From the Pt/HG/SS frontier, I'd have to go with Arcade Star Dahlia.

6. Who’s your favorite PROFESSOR?
I'm partial to good old Professor Oak.

7. What’s your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM?
Gonna keep it oldschool with Team Rocket. <3

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

1. Who's your favorite PLAYABLE CHARACTER?
The girl from Crystal...can't remember her actual name. Also I like the SoulSilver guy...Ethan?

2. Who's your favorite RIVAL?
I like ??? or whatever his name is...the red hair guy from Gold and Silver. Just because he was annoying. I do like Gary too I always hated him for getting an Eevee in Yellow.

3. Who’s your favorite GYM LEADER?
BROCK (because it's BROCK!), Bugsy, Jasmine...and Erika.

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

Roll

Too busy to be busy
1. Who's your favorite PLAYABLE CHARACTER?
Dawn/Lucas. I love their designs.

2. Who's your favorite RIVAL?
Bianca/Cheren. The fact that they're your childhood friends makes the experience battling against them a whole lot better (I don't mean that literally of course).

3. Who’s your favorite GYM LEADER?
Roxanne. I'd love to be a Gym Leader *and* a teacher at the same time! Although her hair leaves a lot to be desired...

4. Who’s your favorite ELITE FOUR MEMBER/CHAMPION?
Phoebe! It's really the flower motif that dragged me in to like her. Also I like Ghost-types!

5. Who’s your favorite FRONTIER BRAIN?
Darach, just because he's a butler.

6. Who’s your favorite PROFESSOR?
Rowan. He reminds me of a gruff tiger.

7. What’s your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM?
Team Rocket... No one can top them.

8. Who's your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM MEMBER/LEADER?
Giovanni. A leader of an evil organization *and* a Gym Leader? That takes guts!

9. Who's your favorite IN-GAME CAST CHARACTER?
Youngster Joey. Need I explain why?
 

XinonYena

Member
1. Who's your favorite PLAYABLE CHARACTER?
Ethan.

2. Who's your favorite RIVAL?
Cheren and Bianca, they feel more involved in the storyline to me.

3. Who’s your favorite GYM LEADER?
Sabrina

4. Who’s your favorite ELITE FOUR MEMBER?
Lucian. Classy guy

4. Who’s your favorite CHAMPION?
Cynthia, epic-dress

5. Who’s your favorite FRONTIER BRAIN?
Pyramid King Brandon. He's such a badass in the anime.

6. Who’s your favorite PROFESSOR?
Professor Oak, it's where it all started. Although Professor Juniper is a close second since she plays an active role herself. I also find her specific research interesting.

7. What’s your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM?
Team Plasma. The reason can be found beyond the league.

8. Who's your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM MEMBER/LEADER?
Ghetsis, also about the main reason why Team Plasma is my favorite team. N is also a very awesome character.

9. Who's your favorite IN-GAME CAST CHARACTER?
Looker. Finally an active policeman.
 

Grei

not the color
After playing White, some of my answers have changed...

1. Who's your favorite PLAYABLE CHARACTER?
Hmm. I really like Brendan in his Emerald attire, as I do Lucas and Dawn in their respective Platinum attires. Red is awesome, Ethan is meh...
I like them all. ;_;

Of the characters I've played as so far, I think I like Brendan in Emerald the most. However, Touko is probably my favorite and Touya is also really cool.

As of right now, I still like Brendan in his Emerald attire the most. Lucas and Dawn in their Platinum attires are nice, but at this point, I can say I like Hilda and Hilbert as second-place playable characters. I dunno. If I were to rank Brendan, May, Lucas, Hilda, and Hilbert, it'd be:

1. Brendan
2. Hilda
3. May
4. Lucas
5. Hilbert


2. Who's your favorite RIVAL?
Gary, I think. Barry's alright and Silver is neat, but... I dunno. I like Gary's design.
I can't say much about Bel or Cheren, although I'm sure I'll love them.

^ How wrong I was.
My favorite rivals are now Bianca and Cheren... Bianca more so. I love their rivalries with Hilbert/Hilda in BW. A friendly rivalry done well is the best kind, in my opinion.
Barry comes in close second due to design.


3. Who’s your favorite GYM LEADER?
Volkner, he's the coolest. That jacket is awesome.

Still the same. Although I think Drayden's badass as well.

4. Who’s your favorite ELITE FOUR MEMBER/CHAMPION?
I don't really have a favorite Elite Four member--none of them really stand out although Bruno and Karen are sexy. What's tough is the Champion. I love Cynthia, I think she's a total badass, but I also really like Adeku. All of the Champions love Pokemon, but Adeku's the only one who has ever really touched on the aspect that getting to the top for glory is not always the best thing. I think, for that reason, Adeku is my favorite, but Cynthia's just a margin below him because Cynthia's awesome.

This hasn't changed, except that now I would call him Alder. Alder and Cynthia are probably the best Champions yet, although I personally think Alder has more to like. Cynthia's really cool, but Alder is wise and cool.

5. Who’s your favorite FRONTIER BRAIN?
Dahlia. She's sexy and she's awesome!

Still hasn't changed.

6. Who’s your favorite PROFESSOR?
Prof. Rowan. I dunno why, I just always liked him. All of the other Professors are so kind and gentle, and that's great, but I liked that Rowan was different and was caring while being gruff. Oak we see way too often, Elm is a wimp, Birch is stupid-looking, and Yew I don't have much of an opinion on (but she doesn't seem so special besides being female...).

Still hasn't changed. I dunno. Juniper was cool, but I still like Rowan more.

7. What’s your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM?
Team Rocket. I thought Team Galactic was more openly villainous, but not quite as cool as Team Rocket. Team Magma and Team Aqua were just stupid. I hated them.
Team Plasma sounds really interesting though. I like the aspect of "we aren't villains, we're do-gooders!", and the "bad guy" aspect comes from their extremism. They're like PETA.

I did like Team Plasma. I felt like they were the most realistic since Team Rocket, and N's story is great. However, I still like Team Rocket more, but only by a little.

8. Who's your favorite CRIMINAL TEAM MEMBER/LEADER?
Cyrus, hands-down. Cyrus was messed up, and that made him creepier. The way he just disappeared in Platinum also fits--he could be roaming the Distortion World forever.
N is really cool but I don't think he's my favorite Criminal Team member. He's too much like a Foil character rather than a villain. Also, I hate Dennis's Geechis's design.

I change this. Cyrus was creepy and messed up, but I think N was the best leader only because he had the best character of the Criminal Leaders. If Ghetsis counts as well, even more so.

9. Who's your favorite IN-GAME CAST CHARACTER?
Hmm... that guy who is in every Gym ("Yo! Champ-in-making!")! The Caretaker / Jim Gai! No, seriously. That guy's awesome.
If not him... Riley, Mr. Fuji, or Eusine.

His name is Clyde, apparently? Well, in Unova he is. I like him.

Changes in bold + white.
