So, besides Pikachu, who do you think was Ash's main pokemon? I think Chimchar-Monferno-Infernape was his main pokemon, because it had a story based on it all through the series, which included it being abused by Paul, using Blaze at the worst places, evolving twice at moments it was in danger, and finally mastering Blaze at the end.
 
I'd say Turtwig/Grotle/Torterra. It put up some good fights during its first and second stages.
 
Ash's main Pokémon was Pikachu (even if it got less battles) and his second-to-main was Buizel in early DP and Chimchar/Monferno/Infernape in late DP
I think it's impossible to argue against this - everyone who watched the whole DP series should agree
It's also reflected in ending themes like Kaze no Message (we see Ash's main Pika and second-to-main Buizel and Dawn with her main Pip and second-to-main Bunny) and Spiky Eared Pichu (other than the mascot trio of Pikachu/Piplup/Croagunk, we only get to see Buneary and Chimchar)
 
Turtwig in the first season, before Chimvhar was introduced. It was BEAST in the Roark/Gardenia matches.

In Battle Dimension, it was somewhere between Chimchar and Buizel, who both got loads of Gym matches and a story with the Paul/Dawn thing.

In Galactic battles, Chimchar and Gliscor. Chimchar for having the Paul battle and loads of Paul interaction, Gliscor for leaving.

Sinnoh league victors, Chimchar (Evolving again, Mastering blaze, league battle), Gible (Draco Meteor)


Sadly, Starly/Staravia/Staraptor always came up second...
 
Hmm I really think that the writers did a good job of sharing the screen time throughout Sinnoh. The only thing i would have changed is rather than giving each Pokemon a select group of episodes i would alternate more often reason being is I feel Turtwig got more attention than Tortera.

Anyways I'm going to echo the above and choose Infernape. Even though all of his pokemon eventually had there time to shine Infernape has the largest plot line and also is the most active wish Ash's main rival. In fact I would put Infernape before Pikachu as his "main pokemon"
 
I think it was probably a fairly even split between Aipom and Turtwig for the first part, then Buizel from trade until about Hearthome, and Chimchar/Infernape since then.

Yeah, your right. I enjoyed it when Buizel was the main Pokemon before Chimchar took the stage, but hey, you can't always have it your own way.
 
Aipom of course. Actually I think it's kinda too bad for Aipom, seeing how Ash started the region with her.

Anyway I think Turtwig/Grotle/Torterra.
 
In the beginning it was definitely Turtwig and Aipom. Buizel also got a lot of focus toward the beginning and middle.

Once Aipom was traded, Chimchar arrived and started hogging the spotlight.

Staraptor and Gliscor always got less than the others.
 
The first thought of this question is Chimchar/Monferno/Infernape. This is the Pokemon that basically started the rivalry with Paul (I think), and one that has probably noticeable character development as well (not to say the others don't have, they have also). I am sorry for not being familiar with most of the saga, because I started quite late in the series.
 
At first, turtwig/grotle/torterra, but, after its evolution, chimchar/monferno/infernape took its place.
 
This depends which part of Sinnoh you mean. Every Pokemon has important parts thoughout Sinnoh. Look who the stars of the gyms are, first it is Turtwig, then Aipom. Buizel stars the next 2 gyms, and then Chimchar against the ghost types. Glascor star against Byron. So you see that many different Pokemon star as the main Pokemon in Shinnoh at different times.
