Zomg! Here's the link to the page. Let's say this... I thought i would get angry from this list, and i was a bit dissappointed somewhere, but as someone who's been playing pokemon ever since Yellow back in '99, every disappointment is met with an overwhelming triumph.

I also find that reading the list while having this blasting is highly reinvigorating for us "Nostalgia-Blinded" (as certain forums will call us) Generation I pokemon fans.

im not surprosed charizard is number 1 but i was surprised when they put a black and white pokemon in 10th like seriously of all 500+ pokemon they had to pick a black and white pokemon for the top ten

well think of charizard like this he can use fly and he is one of the very few fire pokemon so it makes him very useful and once you level him up enough you can even beat water pokemon like blastoise (my charizard was lvl 61 blastoise was lvl 56)

I wanted Charizard to win SOOOO badly... I expected a mudkip or a legendary to take the top spot. I even got scared at around 40, when i was torn between "omg he must be high" and "omg the ign pokemon community is GAAAAAY". I enjoy blastoise too, think Mewtwo is pretty cool, but overall, the best pokemon of all time, Charizard.

I CHOOSE YOU! CHARIZARD!

Zoroark is actually pretty awesome Koru. Aside from him, there are other great 5th generation pokemon out there. You just have the strange ones embedded in your mind like many others do. Every generation has its Good, Bad, and the Ugly. Zoroark just happens to be in the fourth category of Epic.

Ha I love charizard. To think of the hours spent trying to get a black one.

My two favorites are electabuzz and squirtle. But I'm really happy that squirtle's third evolution, blastoise, made the top 3 because it was also a really awesome pokemon back in the day.

Wow, this list was actually very well made
(other than adding black and white pokemon seriously, Nintendo ran out of names so they just made a disabled person splurt out random letters. KYUREM? SRSLY)
IGN is known for making such bad lists, such as the Top Villians of Gaming, whereas they made GLaDOs #1. (SHAO KAHN SHOULD BE #1!!!)I voted for Gengar, He was one of the most useful pokemon in the entire Pokeverse, knowing Fire, maybe Water and Electrical Moves! Great stats too.

Well, I didn't got through the whole list, but I'm fairly disappointed with what I saw. I never got all the fuss about charizard, I mean, yes, he's undeniably great, but... He's far from being my favorite. And all those legendaries in the top ten, I just hate legendary pokemons. Some look cool of course, but I'd rather win with pokemon I like that aren't uber strong because of their lucky DNA, you know what I mean.

My own personnal favorite is Espeon, and then there's pokemons like Magneton, Victreebel, Breloom, Vaporeon, Arcanine, Drifblim, etc...
