Welcome to Contest-of-the-Week! With the release of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire on the horizon, the attention of Pokémon fans everywhere turns to Hoenn, and all the cool and interesting Pokemon that live there.
Every week, we'll be looking at a few of the many Pokémon you'll meet along your journey through the Hoenn region, and asking for your opinions on them and how they stack up next to their counterparts or rival Pokemon looking to fill the same spot on your team.

After delivering the letter to Steven Stone within the Granite Cave, you head back to Dewford Town to challenge Brawly for your second badge. Among the fighting type Pokemon used by him and his gym trainers are the sumo wrestler Pokemon Makuhita, which you've had a chance to catch in Granite Cave, and the yoga practitioner Meditite. Both make fine additions to a team in need of a Fighting type, though Meditite won't be available to catch until later in the game.
Hariyama is available quite early in the game, as it evolves from Makuhita at only level 24, and can easily overpower many opponents in the game with its high attack and significant bulk. In contrast Medicham exchanges staying power for sheer offensive potency, courtesy of its Pure Power ability. It also gained a Mega Evolution in X&Y, something which Hariyama currently lacks.
Which Fighting type Pokemon you prefer, and why?
-Which has the better design?
-Which one is easier to train?
-Which is more useful throughout the game?
-Which do you think will be better in ORAS?
-Which is more useful in the competitive environment?
-Which of these Pokemon has the better fighting style?
Let the contest begin!
Next week: Plusle vs Minun
