I only like 151 Pokemon. I'll let you guess which ones they are.

Could it possibly be the first gen pokemons?

WOAH! We got us a smart one.

mew,mew2 and pidgeotto

I think I'd have two mantines and a mantyke.

Except I'd paint over the smiley on mantyke's back. -_-' He's the only 4th gen I like, but that smiley... 'sugly.

If I only had one mantine, I'd have an eggsecute instead. I find them weirdly cuddly.

Watch This before even saying :P.
Warning: Some of these are too ugly and will therefore ruin the pokemon :P

Or, we could just state the three pokemon we actually would want. I'm pretty sure most of the people here know what their choices look like.

^Agreed.

I have a question I'm not even sure if the ones with the pokemon nerd badges can answer... in fact, a series of questions, all relating to one question; What's with Eggsecute?

Why is it a grass type? Why is it a psychic type? Why does it consist of several organisms but count as one pokemon? Why is it named eggsecute? It doesn't look menacing. Why does it evolve into a multiheaded coconut tree?

Just why?!

But I still like them... I want one in real life.

It must be so awkward being an Eggsecutor :P

I believe they're grass/psychic types because they're like eggs in a nest, but they don't have appendages, so they use PK to move themselves or something. Eggsecutor are essentially the same thing, but the nest is in a tree which also happens to be it's body. I don't know why it's still got psychic type, though.

Wooters!

I choose Gengar, Teddiursa and Dragonite.

I thought all of that too. It still doesn't entirely explain why they're a coconut tree in they're evolved form.

I remember from the pokedex that the individual eggsecutor heads turn into new eggsecute (No S for Zoph. ), which further confuzzles me. :P

Maybe... they turn into seeds when they fall off? I don't know... Confuzzles me too :P

hmmmmm I would choose Pikachu, Feraligator, and Raquaza .

Okay, Manta~ To start with, it's Exeggcute.

The name is based on execute (which has other meanings than killing someone, btw), and it is a word play on "eggs are cute", which it really doesn't need to be menacing to be called~

Why it is a grass type... Look at the design of the evolution, Exeggutor. There's the plant part.
The dual psychic type, I'm not sure it really needs an explanation beyond 'it just is'.

The reason it counts as one organism is because the six individual eggs act under a shared mind - sorta. It's like Dugtrio, Combee... I think there's at least one more... Also, Exeggcutor has 3-6 heads, each probably one of the eggs that evolved into it.

You should check out Bulpapedia's article on Exeggcute for more info.

As for why they turn into a tree... Maybe it's an eggplant? >_>;;;
