These three are very divisive in the fandom, from my experience.


* Electivire, despite its [[SkillGateCharacters questionable use in the metagame]], has proven quite popular compared to other new evolutions that were introduced. Its design is appealing, its as major member of both Gary and Paul's teams in the anime, and its movepool is still noticeably large compared to other [[PoorPredictableRock Electric-types]], as well as being one of the few Electric types to learn Flamethrower and Earthquake.



* Luxray remains extremely popular for being a majestic lion-based Pokémon that is a common staple of Gen IV teams, thanks to the lack of powerful Electric-type Pokémon in the Sinnoh dex, its fans commonly asking for the line to be buffed, with one of the most common suggestions being giving it a secondary Dark-typing, with the other being increasing its shallow movepool. It placed at 20th in the 2020 Pokémon of the Year poll, with 46,032 votes, beating starters like Decidueye, Blaziken and Sceptile, despite not being part of any regional dex at the time and only being rectified in ''Gen IX''.
* Lopunny is notoriously popular with the UsefulNotes/FurryFandom for being a cute anthropomorphic bunny and for being a huge RuleThirtyFour magnet just as much as Gardevoir if not outright rivaling it. It also received a massive boost in competitive usage from gaining a Mega Evolution in the Gen III remakes where it could hit everything for neutral damage, it would slightly lose its popularity once the Mega Evolutions were removed in Gen VIII.

* Ursaluna easily became one of the most popular evolutions introduced in ''Pokémon Legends: Arceus''. Not only does it help bring the Teddiursa line's moon connection full circle, but it even has a cool evolution condition that suits it. This evolution helped save the evolution line as a whole and gave the first proper quadrupedal Bear Pokémon. Plus being very useful in finding hidden items certainly helped boost its popularity.

Urslauna's popularity ensured it received a unique form called ''Bloodmoon Ursaluna'' in Generation IX.

* The fandom fell in love with Greavard and Houndstone due to their unique designs and heartwarming backstories. Greavard and its evolution are considered one of the best Gen 9 Pokémon in design. Plus, that adorable Greavard dance during the Montenevera Gym battle has become a beloved meme. It has a very cool SignatureMove that is fitting for the Ghost Dog Pokémon. This move allows Houndstone to become a very useful last-resort ally.

* Liko's roommate when she was attending her school in-person, Ann, is very popular among the fans for her energetic, yet incredibly friendly personality while also having the popular Starter Pokemon Oshawott. While she doesn't travel with Liko and hasn't appeared in person since the first episode, Liko sometimes video-chats with her, and fans always rejoice when those short scenes happen.

Suffice to say, fans rejoiced even more when it is confirmed she would be returning in Episode 46 to have a battle with Liko using her now-evolved Dewott.
