howd you come about of choosing your character?

[Gligar_Man]

like pokemon and type, evil, male/female whatnot...

i chose gligar because he ownz...
fighting cause i dont plan on using mp ever, lol... :P
male cause female didnt have gligar option...
evil cuz i dunno... :\

[Ikeness]

Previously non-fully-evolved pokemon were not selectable. As an admirrer of Team Rocket I had to chose one of their pokemon. To chose Arbok or Koffing would show too much favor to a particular team member. Meouth was sorta inbetween, so I had selected Persian. 'Cides Geovani has a Persian. And I like cats. It's all cool.

When the RPG returned Meouth was selectable, but I did not really like his sprite.

I also am hoping to run into payday... wouldn't mind.

[Corin]

I chose Noctowl because he is my favourite pokemon, I chose water because it is my favourite element, I chose male cuz there aren't any female Noctowls and evil so I'd have an excuse when I tried taking over the world.

~THIS POST GOT ME TWISTER!!!~

[GigaFalcon]

When I watched the first episode with Pidgeot, I was in awe. He totally whooped Fearow. I've always thought he was cool after that. I chose fire cause the thought of a fire Pidgeot was cool,good just because it's my preference,and male because...that's what I am.

[SSJ4Trunks990]

I choose Articuno because of the 2nd Movie. Atricuno was the last of the birds captured and it was the best one. Grass is sorta like Earth, but I really like it.

[Game & Watch]

I chosed Arcanine cause they didn't have growlithe :( . He's basically been my favourite pokemon
Fire because it matches Arcanine's true element
Male cause he is appearently male
Evil cause...I think evil is more powerful :)

[shishkabob]

Lanturn sounded cool. There were more selections in male. And electric was the strongest last time.

Weedum the Namegiver is from my nickname in my swim team. I give everyone nicknames. So I am the namegiver.

[Bowser87]

Blastoise, 'cause he's the best ever, he's my favorite and he makes me think of Bowser! That's how I called him in the game.
He's a male, 'cause, well, I'm one too, and Blastoise is way too man-ly!
And he's evil, because so is Bowser.

[flash]

i chose scizor just because he's my favorite. he seems to help my stats too. i chose fire because thats my favorite element. i chose male because im a male. i chose good because i like being the good guy and beating evil.

[Sauron]

I chose Alakazam because he is my favorite Pokemon. I chose Fire as my element because it gives more HP (than Psychic) while still having decent MP, and I chose Evil because the Witch King (from Lord of the Rings) is evil.

[Shoryuken]

I chose Flareon because I wanted a powerful fire pokemon that was sort of docile at the same time. I made it a male because that's what I am... :bee: But at the same time, I sorta thought Flareon was a little more female looking... Ah well, it's a male! And it's evil because I like the idea of being evil and just destroying everything. Nyah. :p

Edit: Oh yeah, I made it fire because Flareon is a fire type, and I didn't want to mix types. :p

[Joshu]

I wanted to choose something that could be as close to Botan from Yu Yu Hakusho as a pokemon could...so there's Misdreavous...
BOTAN RULES!!!

[Shadowwarrior88]

i chose Ho-oh because it was one of my favorite pokemon when i played the game,i chose it to be male cause...i dunno,and i chose him to be evil to join the DS clan.:D

[Tetris Block]

I chose Magikarp becuase he t3h ultimate!

.........if only I can find someone to fight me *sigh* :(

[JohnDoe]

I don't have much of a reason to choose Spearow. I just chose him because I never really followed Pokemon, and just wanted a Phoenix-JohnDoe like Pokemon.

[Mr.E]

I'd pick Magikarp, but if he's supposed to be a joke... :(

I skipped right from Level 3 to Level 5. Lock went on, I couldn't choose off of Gyarados. Gideon was kind enough to unlock so I could make changes, but he is busy trying to fix the script so there's no lock on Alignment, so he hurried me. Since I didn't have time to research stats for all pokes, I chose Moltres because it's who I had last time. =P

Rock Type, because it's not weak to the most common elements people chose, plus it's most likely the element strong against Electric. Also, not many chose Grass (good type if not for everyone being Fire-Type), which is what I deduced to be Rock's most likely weakness.

Evil, because good is dumb.

[falconx5]

i chose blastoise cause he's cool male because i'm a male to we got to stick together

[choknater]

I've always been fond of Poison types, only because they are somewhat looked down upon. And they look cool. I like fire types too. I heard from someone that Weezing has an awesome Fire Blast in the game, so I stuck with him. And I stuck with him all the way to the RPG. :D

[Kit Fox]

I wanted something different. Something different from the people. I wanted a Pokemon no one had. I looked around and saw no one with a Omastar. Then a couple of days later I saw Mario27 with a Omastar! I HATE YOU, MARIO27! **** YOU!

I chose the element normal cause the symbol looked cool.

[SilencedViolence]

I chose my things pretty much because I had them like that last time.

Same pokemon - jolteon
Same gender - male
I chose evil because good seems sort of n00bish
I chose fire because I liked the HP and MP stats.

Orignially I chose Jolteon because it was the one I liked the most from 1 - 151, and I chose male since I'm male.

[Mr. Saxophone]

I chose Persian because I like cats.
In the game he is a Normal type, so I went with that.
I named him Vicious because I am an apparent Cowboy Bebop fan and Vicious is my favorate character.
He is evil because of his name-sake, and I just think being evil is more ****** than being good.

[HyperFalcon]

Pokemon: Jolteon(my "father" form in the chats)
Element: Psychic(I am part psychic after all)
Side: Good(I rarely play as a villian, though I may seem like one)
Name: Aero(Wind is my true element, and Aero is my Aerodactyl's name, 'nuff said)

Mostly, I originally did want Onix...but since obviously Hydronix(My character) isn't available, and I ain't going to take Dotrio just because of the 3 heads. I got to upload a pic of Yamadron(yugioh) for an avatar...hmm...

[sharkboy013]

Ampharos. My uber l33t pokemon in Gold. Destroyed my friend everytime. Ever since it was a Flaafy, I frightened him. He lost 12 in a row till he finally decided to cheat and bought a level 100 Mewtwo from a bud of mine. Hes impressive in Special Attack, excellent defenses against rocks, and I could speed mine up with a move gamefreak called Agility. Ampharos is my favorite pokemon now, with Charmander and Ite close behind.

[StealthyZargon]

Scizor cause its got a cool sprite (i dont real play pokemon)
Male cause im a guy and i dont think scizor is avialbe to female class
evil cause being bad is good
fire cause pyros are always good to have at partys :D

[ICICLE]

I chose Pikachu, because he's cool. I chose electric type because that's what they're 'spossed to be. I chose male because that's what I am. Good guy because I'm good too ;).

[Phillip Chanter]

Well first off, I like cats, so Persian was the one for me (probably should of chose Meoth but he doesn't really look like a cat), the name clyde comes from my best bud Clyde (who is also a cat), and "The Burninator" comes from Trogdor! Who else could be more powerful than an allmighty burninator!!

And lastly, I chose Fire because of the fact that I wish that I had a flaming sword! :shyguy: :beezo:

[CerbKirby]

Well, I wanted to pick Electabuzz because I wanted to pick somebody a bit mysterious who is not really used by others except for a few like Kirby King. Electabuzz also was in a few of my Pokemon TCG decks and helped me win many of them, along with winning some battles in my Pokemon Game Boy games.

I chose psychic as my element because it isn't really weak against anything except for dark type which is not in Gid's RPG (a plus for me :p) and I guess Ghost type may be good against it, but the ghost element isn't in the RPG. I also like psychic types because they are fast and Electabuzz is also fast so that makes him pretty fast and Psychich types know stuff.

I chose evil because I love teh evilness, I WANT TO CONQUER TEH WORLD!! (j/k) and I chose male because Electabuzz isn't a female and I don't really like any of the females anyway.

I chose my name, Saul, because I love that name and it comes from a book called The Crusading Wizard, and the guy named Saul rocks big time.

[Psycho Falcon]

I chose Scizor because I have an obsession with swords, and Scyther is the only other character with blades. I chose Scizor over him because along with my ava that area would be flooded with green... kinda monotonous...

I chose fighting temporarily because I figured that fighting's style would best complement low levels, until I explored the options at level four.

I chose good because I'm too lazy to be evil...

I chose Male because I had to, and because I am one...

The name, Smalls, is the nickname I have carried for 2 1/2 years, ever since a friend of mine said I was like Smalls from Sandlot.
Full alias: Smalls Malone...

[pokemonmaster01]

I chose articuno in honor of a Lv. 100 articuno I had on a yellow version file that got erased.

I picked the water element because it is the most compatible with ice.

The name "Yu Yevon" is a name from Final Fantasy X.

My alignment is Evil because nice guys finish last ;)

[uberjedimaster]

Mewtwo because he rocks!
Male because I'm male.
Grass becuase that is my fave element...i didnt know they effected things :(
Evil beacuse i am!

[Ness EX-2 Plus ALPHA]

:( I didn't know so many people had Sciazor... nuts...

I just like Scizor because he's a powerful pokemon on my team in g/s. Male because I am. And Psychic because I think a psychic Scizor would be cool...

[falconx8]

i just picked who i liked

[Nephilim]

I picked Gengar cause he's a ghost and ghost aren't weak to anything I won't have advantage anyone well maybe the physics but o well.

Water because it seems well balanced.

Male....because you can only be a male Gengar and evil because a good Gengar doesn;t make sense.

[Ryboflax]

I picked Espeon because Espeon is my favorite pokemon EVER, besides Delibird. Espeon's pretty strong, too.

[Kiki edit: PLEASE stop posting your signature in such short posts, and keep in mind the 8 line sig limit.]

[ultravid13]

i chose dragonite cuz ever since i saw the episode where it took four of ashes pokemon to take him down i thought he was awesome Male because im male lightning cuz there are powerful lightning attcks and good because evil never triumphs

[UnDead]

I chose Hitmonlee because I think he looks cool. I chose the Fighting Element for obvious reasons. I picked male bacause I'm male. And finally, I chose Evil because I simply prefer to be an evil character in games.

[Dark Tim]

Scizor is the best. The most powerful, and the fastest. The name goes with Crim on .Hack/Sign who is the coolest.
The type seemed to fit the profile and my Scizor will allways fight on the side of good. Also, Crim is male, for I don't think that anyone would ever have seen a female Scizor. Plus, I am male
