Breakdown and Research Process
Every single Pokemon out there is someone’s favorite, or they have some sort of story to tell about them. And even if every pokemon isn’t someone’s favorite, they at the very least have stories circulating about them somewhere out there A compilation of “every pokemon is someone’s favorite, sourced from various websites”. So I’m gonna work through this list bit by bit to write about people’s personal experiences with Pokemon, whether it be big or small, combing through gens with bit’s of my own personal experiences or just trivia.
I'm out here attempting to prove that every pokemon is someone's favorite, so I've been attempting to keep personal anectodes and also add in collective things I might see for every pokemon online. My process is just looking through people's gamefaqs posts, various polls, maybe even stuff like looking at youtube comments and I guess sourcing every video and comment? Unless it's like a super dead geocities site, I think I have enough of those linked here. There's probably also spinoff stuff I should look at too for stuff like ranger missions, partner pokemon, and most importantly for anectodes, randomizers and people's nuzlockes. That helps in terms of remembering. The spacing is gonna kill me though. Mid Evos might be difficult because they're like the in between thing unless someone really hates the final evo...

missingno: I know it's not an official pokemon but I think this guy is neat in terms of leading to unintentional exploration by being a ghost in the code and an error handler that makes it so kanto can be held together by duck tape and sheer coding wizardry.
