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.
vs
After saving Professor Birch and receiving your starter Pokemon, you set out from Route 101 to continue your journey. Along the route, you'll find the Normal type racoon Zigzagoon, and the Dark type hyena Poochyena.
Both evolve early and are reasonably powerful at that point in the game. Linoone is able to scavenge for useful items with its Pickup ability and can learn a number of different HMs, while Mightyena can take the edge off tough opponents with Intimidate and has a type advantage over some of the more difficult bosses in the game.
Which early-game mammal is your favourite, and why?
-Which has the better design?
-Which one is easier to train?
-Which is more useful throughout the game?
-Which is more useful in the competitive environment?
-Do you usually drop them at a later point in the game, or keep them on your team until the end?
Let the contest begin!
Next week: Beautifly vs Dustox
