It's Pokemon standard. First route, the Rodent. Two stage evolution line, moderately good (EXCEPT BIBAREL), occasionally an excellent HM slave (Linoone and Bibarel).

So, which one is your favorite?

I have to choose Furret line. It just rocks. Zigzagoon line is a close second, however.
 
Definently not Bidoof... I like Zigzagoon for Pickup, but I think that I'll have to go for Sentret for some reason I can't explain.
 
LINOONE! an adamant linoone with STAB headbutt is still useful up to and through the elite four.
 
Zigzagoon + Linoone forever! There are two resons for that:
1. They're both cute as awesome, plus linoone is the most usable rodent (altough bibarel too, but's that's only because of his abilities).
2. Zigzagoon was my second pokémon ever ^^ (first being treecko, third being ralts). It was also my second pokémon to evolve (after treecko and later grovyle) and to ever train to level 100 (after sceptile).
 
I like Bidoof,but not for battling. Their line seems more like pets.

Rattata's and Raticate's are adorable,but I'm not the biggest fan of them.

I love Furret's,but I'm not the biggest Sentret fan.

So the Zizagoon line,I like both it and it's evolution.
 
I LOVE Furret! Furret is my favorite! I had a Lvl 100 Furret in Gold. My first level 100! :)
 
I picked the Sentret line, only because I like their designs more than the others. I haven't actually used any of them before so I dunno about how they are in battle.
 
I love linoone so I have to go with the zigzagoone line followed closely by the sentret family.
 
I chose rattata because I couldn't prononce it right as a kid and from the orange rattata I had in Pokemon Red.

Edit: Oh yeah and the mini game in Stadium.

Zigzagoon for the pickup, and because I've been conditioned into associating them with Bashou every time.

My Kanto-nostalgia makes me like ratattas too. Not raticates, though. They're ugly and no longer purple. Purple is better.
 
Sentret/Furret, mainly because their not shoved in our faces on nearly every route. That, and when I first saw Furret I thought it was freakin' adorable.
