I personally like Attacker, but I will settle for an all-rounder. I don’t really like playing support, and defender and speedster are kinda meh. My main is Gardevoir followed by alolan ninetails, and last time I checked they’re both attackers? I know for sure Gardevoir is.

What about you?
 
Here's what I think about each:
  • Attacker: This one is arguably my most used class. I like the mixed between longer range while still be able to chase opponents.
  • All rounder: The other runner-up for my favourite. Sometimes a closed ranged beat-down is also fun.
  • Defender: I like playing Mammoswine and Blastoise from time-to-time. I'm quite underwhelmed when I see a defender in the lobby for some reason.
  • Speedster: Can be enjoyable, but I don't play them as much anymore. (Perhaps they are starting to get too technical?)
  • Supporter: My least favourite. I like the concept, but the only ones I play as is Hoopa and maybe Sableye if I'm feeling a bit adventerous that day.
But TBH I just play whatever I feel focused on that week, or if I feel like there's a gap in the team. Also Gardevoir can indeed be a bit of fun.
 
I can have fun with anything, but I prefer quick brawls using Speedsters and Attackers over protracted melees with Defenders and Supporters. Plus, as a Speedster or Attacker (even All Rounders sometimes), you can take initiative and go after an under the radar objective solo, expecting to complete the battle in a reasonable timeframe even when alone.
