Scizor is an amazing Pokemon with a great design. It is considered one of the most popular ones in Johto by many fans. This one also has a mega form. In generation 2, getting Scizor was a pain, but it was definitely worth the wait.

#4 - Skarmory

Skarmory is one of the Pokemon Champion Steven uses. Most people won't pass through Route 113, in generation 3, without walking all over the place trying to find one of these metal chickens. Good luck finding a cooler HM03 slave.

#3 - Aggron

This is another one that Champion Steven uses in generation 3. Aggron also has a mega form, which is the definition of a tank.

Passing up on Skarmory in a generation 3 playthrough is acceptable, but passing up Aron in Granite Cave is just wrong. Aggron definitely has one of the best designs in Pokemon.

#2 - Metagross

This pick can't be a surprise to anyone. Metagross is not just used by Steven; it's his ace Pokemon. This one is also given a mega form and has even taken a World Championship in the VGC. Metagross is definitely hard to beat in terms of popularity.

#1 - Lucario
