Like, pre release of the games I loved slowbro, but never used one. Koffing was my favorite once the games were released. From there I drifted to Nidoqueen, then Articuno, then Murkrow, then Fearow (well, I loved KENYA, the spearow you got the mail on in GSC), back to Murkrow, Swalot, then Griaffarig, Lucario, Typhlosion, and finally Floatzel (<3 my shiny floatzel, even though she has a -spd nature).
