Still loving my boy Charizard for being so great at everything.

He's powerful, developed, has a personality and isn't too overtly favored by either plot ot battles.

I loved how he served as one of Ash's genuine trials in his way to become a true full-fledged a Pokémon trainer

Pikachu is up there but he's been present every series so giving Zard boy a chance

I'd say Pignite's the Unova ace, since it got way more battles, wins and character development than Krookodile.

In terms of which one I like the most, Pignite's my favorite. But in terms of objective power and skill, there's no doubt in my mind that it's Pikachu.

Pikachu is the strongest, but Charizard is, alongside Infernape, the most well developed and charismatic ace. And Infernape has Charizard's backstory upped to 11, but this time Ash is even closer to the events, since different from Damian, Paul is actually a strong trainer that pushed Ash to the edge.

Charizard is more than a battle bot that is there only to battle without any soul brought into it, you can feel something in every single battle of his, which's why it's unforgivable that the man has never had an actual battle where he could go all-out ever since Vs Articuno back in AG.

And Infernape is the kind of Pokemon that could easily be the main companion Pokemon of the protagonist and I wouldn't complain with how charismatic that thing is, be it battling or casually, Infernape manages to get my interest everytime he appears, and when standing among other Pokemon in a casual environment he doesn't stand there staring at your soul like a lot of other Pokemon.

Do you consider that Greninja falls into this category of ''battle robot''?

It doesn't help that Greninja was the ace that shows the least amount of emotions after evolving to its final form and the excessive number of battles it had during XYZ
 
Well yes I didn't deny. He is arguibly the second strongest or third when Journeys ends
The power is not discussed, everyone knows that Greninja is broken, but I must admit that the first aces (charizard-krookodile) have more ''charisma'', I don't think that Greninja is a battle robot but it was a bit boring outside the battles

I personally think Lucario is worse than Greninja at that, which is why I say at least Greninja was decent.
 
Strongest: Pikachu
Best development: Infernape
Favorite: Greninja (I feel sorry for it) and Charizard

Not really, it's more about his personality being more stoic compared to the others than him being a battle bot. He had one of my favorites arcs in the entire anime with the Wulfric arc, but even then he never showed as much personality as the likes of Infernape, Charizard and Krookodile once he fully evolved, even when battling you couldn't quite see excitement in him, which would be a nice touch to better mirror Ash. But yeah, Greninja was an excellent ace all things considered, even if he mostly shined while in battles.
