Well, this list just makes Mimikyu look ironic. I want Ken Sugimori to draw Mimikyu's real form to celebrate its popularity over Pikachu.
Lucario is a rad humanoid aura fighting/steel that has one of the best movies in the franchise before his gen came out, which coincidentally, was when most people in their 20s now started getting into pokemonThat top three feels weird to me, but the rest of the list looks great.
I've just never understood the appeal of Lucario, and alongside the other two (who I do understand the appeal of) I just didn't realise they were 'that' popular.
Yeah but why is it steel tho? Is its fur made of metal?Lucario is a rad humanoid aura fighting/steel that has one of the best movies in the franchise before his gen came out, which coincidentally, was when most people in their 20s now started getting into pokemon
It does have metal spikes
Lucario represents a medieval knight.
Probably balance reasons
Scizor not up there >(
At least Corviknight and Umbreon made it pretty high.
Gardevoir for Smash.
Also, get fucked Pikachu, Chandelure is more popular lmao. Goes To show that just because you're a mascot doesn't make you the favourite.
The black parts of its body are made of metal, at least the head part and shoulder parts, maybe not his paws
I mean, none of the Pokemon up there are disliked at large. Chandelure is the one "inanimate object" pokemon people really like, so it makes sense its up there. Plus, it was in Pokken.This Google survey isn't exactly the best representation of what's considered the most popular Pokemon because there's a bunch of fans who were either unaware of its existence or just couldn't be bothered to do it.
Basic knowledge of Sociological research dictates that this survey has high reliability but suffers from low validity. We know the number of people that voted but we don't know why they voted. For all we know, some people made a troll vote because they had the power to do so.
Thing is, Greninja became the fan-favorite of the Kalos starters the literal second the final designs were revealed. Getting in Smash and then getting a super transformation in the Anime were just the icing on the cake.

Im not lol? i talk like that normally lolWith everyone voting multiple times its really not that big of a sample size if the 2nd place is 100,000 votes. Lucario has been popular since forever though, to where they're playable in both Smash and Pokken.
Kind of weird to get heated over a small and meaningless survey.
Charizard isn't a mascot, and He's also the original "cool" pokemon before Greninja and Lucario
SameCharzard getting stomped on by lucario and greninja gives me life
im okay with lucario if only because lucario amd the mystery of mew is a legit great movie.
Yeah, the turnout for this poll was pretty low considering that people were allowed to vote every day. I personally only did the first day, so I'm not one to talk lol.With everyone voting multiple times its really not that big of a sample size if the 2nd place is 100,000 votes.

Gen 1 actually tied with gen 3 for most Pokemon in the top 30Gen 1 makes up a tiny fraction of the Top 30 and the winner got cut from the latest games
Perfection
