What's your favourite pokemon from various Anime Generations (and why?)?
These are mine:

Generation I. Misty's Psyduck- I loved scenes with Misty and Psyduck...It was as funny as flirting Brock...old, good times. 15 years ago I would have said it's one of Anime's symbol. Of course, Ash's Squirtle was pretty cool too.

Generation II. Ash's Chikorita (Bayleef)- this bond between pokemon and trainer...and this little, belligerent pokemon was really ,,something else", like Ash described Dawn's Piplup in XY. What is more, I've always found Chikorita's battles really interesting beacause of her prowess.

Generation III. May's Munchlax- It's really rare to find pokemon with personality so similiar (I'd say identical) to its trainer. And with the same life goal, delicious food (I understand You, May). I liked Ash's Corphish too.

Generation IV. Dawn's Piplup-best written pokemon I've seen (and its owner was best written character in this Anime, it's logic), its pride, strength, determination...It was simply ,,bad boy". During DP it becomes part of this show and I really, really miss it and its proud pose. Brock's Croagunk was also a great pokemon.

Generation V. Ash's Oshawott- One of the few positive sides of BW. I love its personality and relations with Piplup.

Generation. VI That's where I have a problem...so, ex aequo- Serena's Pancham and Braixen, Clemont's Chespin . I used to love their arguments (especially when Ash used OS phrase ,,When two people fight, that means they really care about each other " in original version) and Fennekin's (Braixen) class and self-confidence (like in episode ,,A Pokevision of things to come"). Of course Chespin flirting with girls (somebody had to do Brock's job) was also a nice part of The series.

Generation VII. As far I'd say Ash's Litten or Kiawe's Marowak...I'm not sure yet, but these two have strong personality, battle abilities and are involved in lots of funny scenes.

Kanto: Charizard. I didn't like him overshadowing other Pokemon (especially in Johto), but he has such a beautiful relationship with Ash.

Johto: Bayleef. Adorable from beginning to end with a feisty and yet loving personality. She reminds me of my dog.

Hoenn: Corphish, I guess?

Sinnoh: Aipom before she left.

Unova: Snivy?

Kalos: I guess Goodra wasn't that bad.

Alola: Litten, but only for the Stoutland arc that had nothing to do with Ash.

Across all gens: Pikachu is the one I love to death, will forever be the best Pokemon ever for me.
Gen 1: Charizard (loved his development from a Charmander onwards), for the little time Ash owned him Caterpie was MVP.
Gen 2: Chikorita was too adorable, I still love Noctowl (was just so cool in a creepy way and shiny!), Cyndaquil and Totodile as well (both were cute and I loved how hyper Totodile was and the fact that he sounded like Donald Duck.
Gen 3: Swellow was OP as fuck and basically electric resistant so probably my favorite bird and also his Aerial Ace was the coolest ever. Also Treeko was pretty awesome, loved his attitude all the way up to Sceptile.
Gen 4: Loved Infernape, Buizel and Gible (deserved to evolve ffs)
Gen 5: I adored how feisty Snivy was and she deserved to fully evolve, Krookodile was mvp and I enjoyed him stalking Ash since he was a Sandile, really underrated Pokemon imo.
Gen 6: So much to say here, Greninja (peak awesome, loves how his normal speed was like watching Naruto using Kurama's chakra and as Ash Greninja he just went sage mode), Talonflame was a beast, Hawlucha was hilarious with his antics, Noibat was too cute as a baby, Goodra was just really likable to me as well and his backstory was so good. Serena's Fennekin was too cute and so was Eevee (I also adored them both when they evolved), Clemont's Luxray was also really good.
Gen 7: Rowlet is cute but criminally mistreated so that has me disappointed, same for Litten as well. Fell in love with Rockruff first time I saw it and it carried it on into evolving. Kiawe's Turtonator is really fun and so is his Marowak (I like how it's always hyped up) and I actually like Lillie's Shiron.
 
Heracross - I love this bug and I hate the treatment it got. I might try writing some Heracross fanfic to make up for its lack of screentime.

Hawlucha - tied with Growlithe as my alltime favorite Pokemon. If I could pick any Pokemon to get its own side series it would be Hawlucha. I headcanon that Ash's Hawlucha and Buizel are battle bros now, and Noivern is their pupil. I might write a fic about that too.
 
@Johtohfiller
I know how you feel. I mean fanfic. I could write some about Dawn's Piplup and Misty's Psyduck... because of their personalities, it could be epic :D
what is more, Ash's (Dawn's) Buizel is one of my favourite pokemon at all.
@Matleo
Shedinja definetely needed more screentime. I really like it, maybe it's about The episode that Shedinja made its debiut.
