Ok, my list is in no particular order and this list is about picking your favourites - as in their looks and general abilities in battles. So don't go thinking you have to pick 10 that would make a well balanced - they can be all fire types if your favourites tend to all be that type. :-)
Anyway, heres mine (some of you might not know some of these as they're in Sapphire and Ruby)...
01. Pikachu
02. Steelix
03. Aggron
04. Kyogre
05. Lugia
06. HellHound (name right ? basically the one that looks like a doberman in gold and silver)
07. Charizard
08. Duskull
09. Tropius
10. Arbok

After purchasing one, I'll also et Golden SUn 2 and Advance Wars 2 (USA Versions) to keep me busy on holiday.
Yay!

ARGHHHHHH
What does Ruby get instead?
It's not that bloody Skarmory is it?
Thing that gets to me is how many cack pokemon have made it to the new games while others that were excellent have been left out. I would have thought the best move (if pokemon are to be left out) would be to keep the really good ones that players like to use and ditch the crap ones.
I can't help but think that some other pokemon game on either GBA or GC will come out that brings in the other pokemon for you to get and extend the pokedex. It just seems a bit, I dunno, wrong in a way that the overall count has been brought down to 200 on not only a new version of the game, but a more powerful console - you know ?
I'm getting plenty of hours out of it (clocked over 150 hours now), but that still doesn't fill the void in me that misses my Houndoom. :-(
Don't mind starting again from scratch, but at least give me my old favourites !
I can't shake off the feeling that it's just a Houndour and Houndoom though...and they were even better...
It seems they scrapped a lot of good new Pokemon from G/S, and replaced them with pretty much identical ones in R/S.
And I fought someone with a big evil snake thing, I WANT!!
Was fun though - got to pound some punk kids on the game while waiting. ;-)
