(Yesterday was Boxing Day, so I hope you can excuse me for being a day late!)

Welcome to the twenty-first instalment in the Video Games Forum's new weekly series of polls! (Don't ask my why I mislabelled last week's as the 20th >>).

Centered around the Pokemon series of video games, these polls will be based on the various different aspects of the popular video game franchise. Every Monday, a Video Games staff member will post a new poll that'll remained stickied up on top of the forum. Suggestions for polls and questions can be sent to Joshawott, and they could possibly used for new polls (credit will be given, of course).

With that out of the way, here is the poll: Which Male Playable Character is your favourite? This poll was suggested by Destiny Queen.

Thank you for voting!

It was a tie-up between Gold(Ethan) and Black(Hilbert), I chose Gold because I used him first and while I like Black's artwork I don't like his over world sprite.
 
Hilbert, simply because he is older than the others, and that makes him the easiest for players of all ages to relate to.
 
Anybody but Hilbert.
Probably Ethan. I don't have much of a preference, but I like his design.
 
I gotta go with Gold as my favorite. It seems to be the only unique looking male, besides Lucas, and I like the GSC games more
 
Gold has the best design in my opinion. I hate Hilbert since his hair design is awful.
 
Lucas, by far. He's the only one that has a good design AND actually has some personality when you're not playing as him, but Dawn instead. He's forgetful and a bit worrisome, but very helpful. Ethan felt robotic and I don't feel we saw enough of Brendan. And I'm not crazy about their designs either. As for Hilbert, not crazy about his design either. Or his name. Ew.
 
Ethan / Gold by far. I picked him over Lyra when I started playing my SS, and I am a girl. Go figure.

I also have a lot of symphaty for Brendan, although he would be much better of with white hair instead of that wierd-ass hat lol.
 
They finally made a male playable character that I could take seriously in Gen 5 XD I have played the games since Gen 1 and the one thing that bugged me was the look and fashion of the male playable characters up to Gen 5. I have always usually selected the female characters in the previous versions because of this (Except R/B/Y & G/S of course :p).

The character in Pokemon Black/White looks much better in my opinion and the older look for both playable characters is a vast improvement. I voted for Hilbert's character on this basis.
 
Brendan because I like his outfit and the hat he wore in Emerald. Ethan and Hilbert are close behind as my favorites.
 
Red. I just liked his design best overall, it was simple and didn't look all that ridiculous. Also red is one of my favorite colors. Ethan is probably second, though if Lucas and Hilbert had red jackets instead of blue, I would have to reconsider everything.
 
Well, since none of them can talk, I can't really judge them on personality. And none of them are really intelligent considering they don't know how to run without running shoes. So if I'm going on purely looks, I have to say Hilbert. (He has the most pixels)
 
I picked Brendan because my fav Poke-spe character is Ruby XDD Besides, I love that white hat that I had known as white hair for years. The white hat also sways when he runs! So cute! XDD I like his Ruby version design than Emerald cuz green doesn't really suit him.

Gold/Ethan is a close second because he's the only male playable character that actually wear SHORTS - AND SHORTS ARE COOL XDD

The rest is tied in third.
