Grass Mania

Which grass pokemon do you like better?

Shifty or Ludicolo?
Meganium or Tropius?

Shifty and Ludicolo both are counters to each other. Shifty in ruby and ludicolo in sapphire. Shifty uses a leaf stone and ludicolo uses a water stone. their learning move numbers are the same. Shifty uses the sun and ludicolo uses the rain.

I like shifty more. It looks cooler and is more offensively strong. Ludicolo is annoying. Plus, Shifty explodes.

Meganium and tropius are the pokemon world's sauropods (long-necked dinosaurs). I like tropius better- it needs more love and an evolution.

 

[Tropical Spirit]

Cool, I love grass types. <3

-Shitry. I love its design, not to mention it can learn Explosion.

-Tropius. My favorite pokemon. =3

 

[Tazzler]

Lol, I half-dedicated this thread to you.

 

[Orion-Sama]

Then I must be the other half.

Out of the early RS duo, I prefer Ludicolo. He's got my absolutely favorite Type Combination, has funny looks, can do good stuff, and is my Paisano! Glad to see a Pokémon based off a mexican tradition, albeit estereotypical. Plus, Shiftry is there in the bottom alongside the Grass Pokés I like the least...

Now... between the sauric Plants is a VER hard decission. I absolutely adore both. But I'll have to go with Meganium. Pretty much loved her at first sight. She's my second favorite Starter, and has a Movepool most Grass Pokés would be jealous of. Her big Defenses and OK offensives make her very good. And she's cute to no end. I still love Tropius, but it's not in the same league as lovely Meganium.

Heh, Tazzler. Why don't you make a new grass face-off? I don't think there's one going right now.
Shiftry over Ludicolo plzthnxbi. The whole line is fantastically designed, and with huge offensive stats and moves like Explosion, Sword Dance, Substitute and Extrasensory Shiftry can kick some serious....... posterior? Plus, I hate the Lotad family with a bizzare and somewhat unneccesary hatred which I cannot explain.
Tropius and Meganium? No question. Meganium. Tropius looks cool, but is only really useful as a HM slave. Meganium, on the other hand, is an excellent battler. It has great Sp. Defence and Defence, and a whole range of great annoyer attacks. Like all Grass Pokemon, it takes skill to use, which is one of the reasons why n00bs (who are obsessed with pure power and don't care about strategy) think they suck. Meganium is also absolutley beautiful, and evolves from my favourite Grass Type ever, Bayleef!

 

[Altair]

Ludicolo, definitely. I have one and he's almost impossible to take down.

Meganium, too. She's a hundred times better than Tropius, even if it is Flying and Grass.

 

[Charizard_Fire_God]

Well Ludicolo looks funnier. XD
Tch, an' Tropius I choose because they look more Dragon-like tame with their wings... I'm definetly more Attracted by their Sweet Scent and those bananas. ^.=.-

 

[Magma Grunt Alex]

Ludicolo and Meganuim.

 

[wupun]

Well for the first one there's no other choice than to go with Shiftry. It looks so much better than that fat creepy ludicolo and has the ability to learn explosion.
For the second question I don't know how anyone could go with Tropius instead of Meganium. Meganium just looks way better than Tropius and its base stats are higher.
I rest my case!

 

[munclax master]

tropius and ludicolo

 

[Grass Guardian]

-Shiftry
-Meganium by far! She's my second favorite starter next to the Bulba clan.

 

[[Kingdra]]

Ludicolo because Ludicolo's part water I love water and Meganium I have a tropius and i like it but Meganium dominates the grass world (not really I just said it ^_^)

 

[kyogre100]

I have to go with Ludicodo and Meganium

 

[Jupetta]

Shiftry... Dark-typed which makes me love it.
Tropius... Meganium can't fly I guess, plus I love its color scheme.

[Volteon]

I love most underated types!
I´ll make the same thing I usually do in PP:

Looking:
Shiftry>ludicolo
Tropius>meganium

Creativity:
Ludicolo>Shiftry
Tropius>Meganium

In-Battle:
Ludicolo>Shiftry
Meganium>Tropius

So my final judge is that I like more Ludicolo than shiftry and I like more tropius than Meganium.

 

[SHUCKLE MAN]

I love grass types a load.
Meganium>Tropius
And ever since Meganium got Counter it improved a load. And Meganium>>Charizard (although that is not saying anything).

Ludicolo=Shiftry
I cannot decide on this one. They are both fantastic. Shiftry and Exeggcutor are the only Grass-type exploders iirc. Ludicolo has a fantastic type combo and it is known for being a counter for loads of Pokemon, it can adapt to sun and rain and best of all, it can recover most of its HP every turn making it almost invincible if it is given enough turns for a set up.

 

[Aquarelle]

Ludicolo and Meganium. 'Nuff said.

 

[Raden Surya]

Hmm, I prefer Ludicolo cos it can beat fire, and Tropius cos it can Fly.

 

[Torchic23]

Shiftry<Ludicolo
Maganium>Tropius

I've always loved Maganium!
