Your favorite Dog Pokémon?

[Croconaw]

Inspired by the thread asking about cat Pokémon, I’m here to ask about your favorite dog Pokémon.

I’m very fond of Greavard and Stoutland.

 

[skynerel]

Greavard, Growlithe, Stoutland and Furfrou are my favorite dog pokemon.

boltund, i never felt that strongly about it until i replayed sword recently and my team's ace ended up being a boltund that i asked my girlfriend to name. they named her Zoomie. we love zoomie. i see boltund and i think of zoomie. shoutout to zoomie
by design alone, i have always been a massive lycanroc midday fan lol

zoomie mention... very similar note, but my favorite dog pokemon is yamper because of this. i tend to like pre-evolutions better is all. i like it when pokemon are little baby. i have a build a bear of yamper that i named after zoomie the yamper to boltund and i am obsessed with her. she's everything to me.

other dogs i like are lillipup, rockruff, and mabostiff. lillipup and rockruff for being cute and mabostiff for being very reminiscent of my dog in real life who is a mastiff

Spoiler: my sweet sweet puppy

i cannot talk about my dog without sharing a picture of her. this is brindy. please tell me you see the resemblance to mabostiff haha

 

[terashards]

and mabostiff for being very reminiscent of my dog in real life who is a mastiff

everyone i know who owns dogs has the dog pokemon that looks closest to their dog as one of their favorites if not their favorite. which makes sense but it's just kind of funny because i don't feel like you can really do the same thing with cat pokemon as much

 

[lumineonite]

My favorite is probably electrike & manectric. I was so obsessed with them the first time I played through gen 3 as a kid and I still want to use one on every replay!

 

[Jinjo]

Entei, Raikou, and Suicuine are my favorite. Not sure if they count as dog Pokemon or not and if not, then my favorite would be Greavard, Houndstone, Houndoom, Houndour, Arcanine, and Growlithe.

I love love love Zacian. ;u; I think the fact that she's the Big Sis wolf just makes her even more relatable to me.

I asked my roommate this question as they're sitting next to me rn and I consider them the Expert on dog Pokémon ngl: their favorite is Rockruff. c:

 

[RichestAirPirate]

Lucario! But if you don't wanna count that since jackals technically aren't dogs, I'll say Lycanroc. Specifically, Dusk form Lycanroc!

 

[CrinkTheBunny]

Hm I haven't thought very hard about dog mons before....I think my favourite is Fidough but I'm verrry tempted to say Mabosstif. It's so silly...but pastry dog wins. wait i just realized paldea had like three new doggies. Huh weird.

 

[Nicolas721]

1. Grevard-so creepy but so cute.
2. Daschbun-Paldea outdid itself with its dogs, has a fun attitude and a great design
2. Furfrou-my previous dog was a poodle so...yeah, though a preevo would break the ranking.
3. Rockruff-high dog energy and cute inspirations
5. Zacian-girl slays, literally.

Honorable mentions: Ninetales, Zigzagoon, Arcanine, Boltund.

 

[sonadowgenerations]

lillipup! my real life dog was named after it so now it's my favorite pokemon ever : )

 

[Princess Viola]

fidough because they are bread puppy and also they have no brains, just dough.

 

[da man/man]

Boltund, becuz he is dog. Lycanroc-Midnight becuz he is scary dog. And Houndstone because, I didn't care for it too much at first, I just thought it looked cute, but then in HZ052 it started beatboxing and I instantly fell in love with it. Anipoke can really change how you see a Pokemon XD

 

[illogicalatlas]

Dachsbun!

I do realize I’m far too biased thanks to my childhood dachshunds, but it’s honestly just precious. And the bread pun? Too cute.

 

[Dr. Gro 3001]

I have a soft spot for the Rockruff line, but a little less so for Midnight Lycanroc. But I also love the Lillipup line.

 

[MimikyuQueen007]

Lycanroc, particularly Midnight form is up there, but I also love Zacian, my little big sword puppy-ancient being. And Mabosstiff… I think I just love all of them.

 

[Zinkling]

GREAVARD <333 it's sooo cute and silly

also... it was revealed right around the first anniversary of my first dog passing, and only a few months after the passing of my other dog... i had those dogs pretty much all my life, i guess you could say i was really missing having a dog at the time. i feel like greavard even kinda resembles my first dog. kinda tearing up here right now,,, i think all that just makes greavard extra special to me

 

[wakuwakurhapsody]

I love rockruff! I’m not really a dog person, but I adore this little puppy, it’s so cute and such a cool design. Great evolution concept too.

 

[WholesomeCryptid]

i don't know why but i have a huge soft spot for Lycanrock and very frequently use it in my playthroughs of the more recent games so probably it! what can i say i love a good werewolf.
