Not just because Litten is a Fire-type and Rowlet is a Grass-type, but because it's a cat's nature to hunt and destroy birds.įinally, consider this: To date, Litten is the only Pokemon forced to endure the Cone of Shame. Some Pokemon fans might declare Rowlet the cooler and cuter Generation 7 starter, but Litten makes short work of it in every possible way. It's aloof, it's sassy, and its back-hair frizzes, flame-like, when it's threatened or about to attack.


Litten is also the most "cat-like" Pokemon in a series that's filled with felines. And, like an ember, Litten needs only a little push to start roaring. Its red-and-black coat alone conjures mental images of embers burning in a bed of coals. Pokemon Sun and Moon has the best starters we've seen in years, and Litten is the strongest of the trio-both as a fighter, and from a design standpoint. Even if you do grow close, giving it too much affection is still a no-no. If you try too hard to get close to it, it won't open up to you. I respect that in a Pokemon, and that outlook in life to be honest. Wobbuffet just chills out and takes everything as it comes. Wobbuffet is not a creature born to fight, nor to defend. That's what makes Wobbuffet unique among the early generation Pokemon. When I play Pokemon, I usually line up a strategic lineup of Pokemon, the most important of them is what I call my Tank: the poor pocket monster on the front lines ready to soak up whatever attacks are flung its way as I heal up and soothe all the Pokemon on the sidelines. They have a lot of HP-making them great tanks in a Gym battle. Hey-oh! Realistically speaking, Wobbuffets are an underrated Pokemon. Wobbuffets also sound like men competing for my attention at a bar, even when I say I'm in a relationship. However, they may try to see which one can endure the longest without food. If two or more Wobbuffet meet, they will turn competitive and try to outdo each other's endurance. So cue the PokeRap and let's get this party started. Here are the best 25 Pokemon of the past twenty years, ranging from our personal favorites (Arcanine) to some of the most iconic of the bunch (Magikarp). It's not easy to distill more than 800 monsters into a comprehensive list of 25, but it's Pokemon Week here at USG, and we're sure going to try.
