Alakazam for me. Though it wasn't until Gen 3 when it became my favorite, and it was my overall favorite Pokemon for a very long time. I like most things about it, notably its design and high Sp.att and Speed stats. It also has a good typing for Gen 1. I never really used Alakazam that much while playing R/B/Y though, but I have had great success with it in more modern generations.
Some other of my top favorites from Gen 1 are these: Starmie, Dragonite, Moltres, Gengar, Slowbro, Machamp, Dodrio, Kangaskhan and Gyarados.

#1 is Pikachu. Yellow was my first time playing Pokémon, and I always kept Pikachu in my party. Then Stadium allowed you to teach it Surf. Then in Gen II if you traded it over from Yellow, it had a Light Ball attached, making it go from being somewhat useless to having a monster Special attack second only to Mewtwo. Then in later Generations Light Ball also doubled its Attack stat. Plus, The Pikachu's Beach Mini-Game was very fun to play. I should play it again sometime, since it's been a while. Pikachu is my homie.
#2 is Arcanine. I liked that although its moveset wasn't great, its stats were very good. Plus something about a big fluffy loyal dog is cool.

1. Pikachu- besides being the mascot i find it really cute and i love its special move volt tackle and its portrayal in the anime.
2. All the kanto starters- I love all of these starters equally They are all good pokemon with unique yet simple designs.
3. Butterfree- I have a soft spot for butterfree cause it was the first pokemon i caught and fully evolved.
4. Dragonite- I love its design and the fact that it was the original Dragon type pokemon plus its good stats.
5. Eeveelutions- I liked the idea that eevee could evolve into different types depending on the stone and the evolutions themselves have really cute and cool designs.

Dragonite's always been one of my favourite Pokemon overall, due to its design and all the memories I have of using it on various games.
Gengar has really become another favourite Kanto Pokemon of mine. I've never used one on the Gen I games, but I've used it a lot at the Battle [whatever] in Gen 3 onward and have found it very, very useful due to its stats, movepool, typing, etc. Now that wireless trading is possible with the VC releases of RBY, I will likely use it on a future playthrough.
There are many other Gen I Pokemon I really like, but I have to give a special mention to Charmander. It was my first favourite Pokemon back when I was five years old and saw it in the anime for the first time.

Here are my favorite Kanto Pokémon:
Squirtle-Wartortle-Blastoise: It's my favorite of the Kanto starters
Pikachu-Raichu: Because Wynaut? Pikachu's the mascot of Pokémon and Raichu is great in battle
Vulpix-Ninetales: Valpix is cute and Ninetales is majestic
Lapras: Lapras looks really awesome and friendly and I like water types the most so that's why
Eevee: It's adorable and it can evolve into many different types. Eeveelutions aren't the most powerful Pokémon but still good in battle.
Vaporeon-Jolteon-Flareon: I think they're all awesome. I'd say Vaporeon and Jolteon are my favorites.
Dratini-Dragonair-Dragonite: I like Dragonair's design the best but Dragonite is more powerful
Mewtwo: It's a really good legendary to use in battle
Mew: I'm a sucker for legendaries and it can use any TM
I like the others too but those are my favorites.

Bulbasaur: Its adorable, also like its design and the hues of green.
Pidgeot: Mostly love its design. Looks majestic.
Arbok: I do love a good snake design. Never really used an Arbok on my teams, but I like how intimidating it looks.
Nidoking: A look of strength about him. Chose him a lot in Pokemon Stadium.
Rhydon: It's been a recent addition to my favorite Gen 1. I don't really know why lol but I do love its design.
Gyarados: Used it a lot in my teams, so he's kind of a staple. I love its design, as well as how intimidating it looks. I really like that he evolved from what people perceive as a really weak Pokemon haha.
Dragonair: Slender design and a nice combination of blue and white in a really nice looking Pokemon
Articuno: Number one favorite from Gen 1. I love its design, its colors, everything. Specially since when it showed itself in the Movie 2000.

Originally, way back when it all started:
#1 - Psyduck - Misty's foil.
Now, playing more, it is:
Gyarados, Dragonite, all the starters, Alakazam, and my current #1 - Kangaskhan. I use these Pokes a lot in my play throughs in gen 3, 4, and 6. Very useful and strong pokes.

Charizard,pikachu,nidoking and dragonite not to forget mewtwo.
I think my ultimate favorite is Charizard since it was my Starter in Red.
When I played Blue years ago I was a big Charizard fan myself and I remember beating my friend's Blastoise with Charizard once in a link battle ha ha. I think I still own a 1st edition holographic Charizard card that I got back in 1999 when Charizard was my favourite pokemon.

Mewtwo ofc...
Most relatable creature in whole Pokemon universe...

I always liked Growlithe and Arcanine, they have great designs and I've always felt like dogs make great pets in real life. They also looked pretty cool leaping out of the lava in Snap. Even now Arcanine is one of my favourite pokemon to use in UU, give it intimidate, will-o-wisp, a ton of special bulk and morning sun and you've got yourself a pretty tough wall. I like Growlithe's dex entries too, its ferocious and bold but also loyal.
