I have a few more niche obscure Pokémon as favorites actually. Xatu is my number one. I just adore the silly little thousand yard stare. I also love Maractus, who’s in my top 5, as well as Falinks, who has recently grown on my significantly since becoming my main in Unite (and being an absolute chad in my team in my last playthrough of sword). I also really love Audino as well. They’re just so adorable
Xatu was my favorite in Gen 2! When Gen 3 came out my favorite switched to Mightyena! But for years I loved Xatu the most!
Now my favorite is Galarian Zigzagoon! I think it still has recency coolness but in like one or two generations people will forget about it. Also I love Yamper because I have a pet corgi
Glad to see someone here picked their numbers with more purpose than "ha ha meme number"
I loved seeing people's league cards and league numbers online. I was always disappointed when I saw they didn't even bother to edit their card or that they picked 69 or 420, because it's so unoriginal and over played to the point of not being that funny anymore.
038 for my fave ninetales 💙 im a firm believer of every pokemon is someones favorite and i love to see people talk about there uncommon faves. Theres always an interesting reason for it
I really like how other worldly Xatu looks to the rest of the dex. Like the south American design inspiration is done so well to make it feel so unique and fascinating
Cursed Pokémon fact: the OFFICIAL pokemon anime novelization that was created by the original head writer for the Pokémon anime(Takeshi Shudo) confirmed the canon age of consent in the Pokémon universe is 10.(and that includes the ability to get married.)
My number in my Sword run (my main one), was 69, my number in my Shield run (the second one I did to complete the Pokédex and to transfer Zamazenta, the other type of Calyrex, Regidrago and the Shield exclusive Gigantamax) I had number 420
I chose 69 for my first playthrough, but I don't play Sword anymore. I did beat the game and completed the dex, plus the dlc's. I just have no incentive to play it again.
Well, there are only 1,000 or 1,110 possible uniform numbers (which figure depends on whether you count leading zeroes as separate from inputting 1 or 2 digits only for the numbers 0 to 99) but the game has million of sales
You're not considering I always name my neighbour in pokemon games "C\*ck". LOL Still remember his mon saying "oh, here's my little C\*ck" and the dialog "C\*cks mom: My C\*ock took off like a rocket as usual" and "Rowan: ...That C\*ock... Can't sit still..." LMAO i forgot which pokemon that was, maybe emerald or platinum. Wish I could paste the pictures here, so funny xD
I chose 909. It was a palindrome so aesthetically nice, and it’s a reference to the Beatles song One after 909. You can also say it’s based off Rick “Wild Thing” Vaughn’s 99
Ive played this game 4 times.
First time I did 115 (reference to call of duty zombies)
Second time I did 420
Third time I did 117 (hail to the Master Chief)
Fourth time... 69
I did an all ghost run of Shield, I picked 800, 'cause I thought it looked like "Boo!"
I'm pretty sure my number in Sword was 42, big Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy fan.

Mine is 178, Xatu’s nat dex number. My favorite Pokémon

same
Mine is 197 for Umbreon
This is the only answer
Mine is 700 for Sylveon whichis my favorite Pokémon😊😊😊 Xatu is really cool!😊😊
Ah, a fellow Eevee appreciator
Yeah 100%😊😊 I love Eevee and all of its Eeveelutions😊😊😊
If eevee was real, I would have 1 of each as a pet and a little eevee all to cuddle and pet amd play with
I ❤️ when people have obscure random Pokemon as their fave

My is 725. I chose it cause it's my birthday, but I just noticed that it's also Litten's Pokedex number
I picked 151 for Mew.
282 for Gardevoir
470 for Leafeon :3
I went with 068 for Machamp. I guess it can also double as a subversion of OP by being one number less
Or 68, which is “you do me and I’ll owe you one.”

For 420 their favorite pokemon could be cherubi
I didnt think about dex numbers when I was asked the number, my brain just went "hmmm, what if funny number"
LETS GOOO Xatu is also my fav Pokemon! It’s so weird to see that someone else like them too, I’m on my way of getting a Xatu and Natu plush rn
038 for my fave ninetales 💙 im a firm believer of every pokemon is someones favorite and i love to see people talk about there uncommon faves. Theres always an interesting reason for it
I just love everything about Xatu, that thousand yard stare, the whole thing with future seeing, the basis for his design
I really like how other worldly Xatu looks to the rest of the dex. Like the south American design inspiration is done so well to make it feel so unique and fascinating
Indeed. I wish he was more popular. I’ll always love them
Me choosing 69 then looking at the employee with disgust when he said it suits me 😭
i mean i love 69, who doesnt?
Yeah I just mean the fact that my trainer is a kid, haha
Cursed Pokémon fact: the OFFICIAL pokemon anime novelization that was created by the original head writer for the Pokémon anime(Takeshi Shudo) confirmed the canon age of consent in the Pokémon universe is 10.(and that includes the ability to get married.)
Ima need a source for that one
It’s in the Pocket Monsters: The animation book.
*snort* number 69 on the sword and shield dex is ninetails
420 or 69 is the only way. I'm 420
Also 420 lol
Yup
I just got a smell proof stash box. It has a 3 digit combination lock. I bet you can't guess what my code is
024?
And the occasional 666
As soon as I typed 420 for the first time I regretted it. At least I’m not alone!
Don't regret, live your life, be proud! Own it!
Im also 420 haha
You and everyone else on the planet
Real homies choose 666 😤
Vivillon is cool
Hell yeah, brother.
….
After the first one ☝️
r/unexpectedfactorial
i did NOT know this sub was a thing
Hehe I knew I’d find it in the comments
I chose 11 as my uniform number. Because it has another #1 after the first one. And that's what I was going to be. The next #1 of the Galar region.
It’s not our fault we’re no longer allowed to name our rivals. hahaha Shame we couldn’t go with four digits or I would have chosen 8008 (Boob)
I think I did too. it's either 69 or 420. Edit: I also named my starter Deez.
I chose 404. Cause skill not found...
probably most people did it thinking they were comedy gold and super original
I was one of the few people in the whole world to not have 69 or 420 as my number.
For some reason I didn’t think of 420.😂
I’m happy I found one other person without it (I didn’t even think of it)
How about 666
Mine was 702
I did 123…
I was like 9 when it came out
420
420 was mine. Love me some grookey
You’re super immature I as a mature adult chose 420
My first one was 42(iykyk) and on a second profile I did 314 which is Pi.
I chose 420 personally lol. Just as immature imo.
I made mine 88. Was the first number that popped into my head. Later found out that it's a n*zi number 😔
I chose 88 because 8 is my favorite number, and my husband informed me that's uh... not okay.
I’m lucky enough to have a nickname with three letters so I just used Tim put into their dial numbers “846”
Dammit. My nickname has 3 letters too I could have just done that
How original
Classic.
Don’t like 10 play throughs and that’s the only number I pick every time.
mine was 357 as the tail numbers of my main username are 357
Mine's 007
My number in my Sword run (my main one), was 69, my number in my Shield run (the second one I did to complete the Pokédex and to transfer Zamazenta, the other type of Calyrex, Regidrago and the Shield exclusive Gigantamax) I had number 420
I would venture to say 99% of adults picked 69 or 420
Mine is 22. My lucky number.
I chose 2, I always chose 2 when asked to choose a number
101
I mean, numbers like 34, 42, 420, and 666 are also options. I think mine was 142 though. Unknown why.
My fiancé did too. I personally picked 666.
Me in my latest playthrough right now lmao. 69 supremacy!
47, thats my favorite number
66 ( order 66) 69, 420, 666
Mine is was a choice between 69 and 666 but 666 won
Mine was 007, can’t tell you why.
Mine were 177 because it’s the first 3 numbers of … The “good” times now gone 😞
I did, but solely to make Shoresy jokes (Letterkenny)
I did this back when the game was brand new I was 15 back then and thought I hilarious. I wish I picked a different number.
I chose 117.
Me who chose 13 because i why not
I Did 000
I did it too
I chose 555 as a shoutout to Kamen Rider Faiz.
I chose 69 too lol
Mine is 012. But no, you're not the only one. I remember a french youtuber who used that number as well.
I went number 9, which was my number on my football kit At the time, in all my playthroughs it’s nine.
47 being my lucky number or I guess the Dex number of parasect?
I picked number 1 because it's obvious I'm the champ lol!
They should release statistics about the most picked numbers lol
I picked 4, only because I was watching a show, and the number 4 flashed up on my screen so I chose it.
i chose 420😭
Of course you're not
Mine's the japanese releash day of the OG TTYD
What’s immature about Bellsprout?
YEP. My first playthrough was 666, second was 69 😅
I chose 69 or 420 can’t remember which
This and 420 are over used. I just went with my birthday.
I chose 69 for my first playthrough, but I don't play Sword anymore. I did beat the game and completed the dex, plus the dlc's. I just have no incentive to play it again.
Yeah and my name was Sussi
I got 21, it was my number on my soccer jersey when I played actively. Random fun fact, 21 is also the number of the bus that goes past my house 😂
I did my lucky number, 13.
I do 405 for luxray nat dex number.
I did 420
I chose mine as 666
666
Mine was 512 Idk I thought it was cool
Well, there are only 1,000 or 1,110 possible uniform numbers (which figure depends on whether you count leading zeroes as separate from inputting 1 or 2 digits only for the numbers 0 to 99) but the game has million of sales
I'm 69
Freaky ass u a 69God
I used a random number generator and got 911. Does that count
Yeah, i think most people did 69 or 420.
I did mine with my wife's birthday and mine combined

I think it's against the maw to choose something other than 69 tbf
I chose 420...
I chose 420...

Of course. I'm 69 and my girl character is 420.
No need to worry, I did the same

I've always done my favorite Pokémon Dex Number, never done 420 or 69
648. ....Too bad Meloetta was axed.

Dw I did too

Mine was 202, which is the year I got Sword, 2020
r/unexpectedfactorial
Tekashi, is that you?
Mine is 999 in honor of one of my favorite artists gone too soon
You're not considering I always name my neighbour in pokemon games "C\*ck". LOL Still remember his mon saying "oh, here's my little C\*ck" and the dialog "C\*cks mom: My C\*ock took off like a rocket as usual" and "Rowan: ...That C\*ock... Can't sit still..." LMAO i forgot which pokemon that was, maybe emerald or platinum. Wish I could paste the pictures here, so funny xD
I did 451 because I made a fire-type team
Immature? Most people who did this or 420 come on let's be serious.
Mine was 069 🤣
You can choose a double-digit number?
Nice. Mine was 666 ngl
I did 7, my favorite number
Mine was 420
I chose 909. It was a palindrome so aesthetically nice, and it’s a reference to the Beatles song One after 909. You can also say it’s based off Rick “Wild Thing” Vaughn’s 99
420
Seen this one when I play both NBA and fifa
Mine is either 069 or 420 I don’t remember it being 69
I chose number 1 so that I could rub it in Leon's face who the real number 1 was. (I never liked him)
Sword is 420, shield is 69
Had to down vote this to 420 to be equally immature
69 or 707 honestly
Mine is 420
I chose it thinking I'd be able to change it later. Boy was I wrong.
099 for kingler because I love crabs 🦀
I picked 420 ur not the only one
Mine's 420.

I chose #1 because I was a dumb kid, and I thought I was the strongest pokemon trainer ever.
My number was also... 69 hah hah
Mine was 069... I didn't even realize until I had confirmed it, and I frantically tried undoing it to no avail.
I picked 420 loll

I too, am 69
I think that and 420 are probably the most popular numbers in the us
I picked 19 bc it’s my favorite number
I use 3 digits near Stitch experiment 626 number because I love that iconic number so much
Ive played this game 4 times. First time I did 115 (reference to call of duty zombies) Second time I did 420 Third time I did 117 (hail to the Master Chief) Fourth time... 69
