4. Mew
5. Magikarp
6. Deoxys
7. Darkrai
8. Celebi
9. Pikachu
10. Rayquaza

So it seems that the votes of Ditto and Mudkip were not discounted and Arceus won without the need of editing the votes.

I still can't figure out why Mudkip is SECOND!!!??? Damp is a horrible ability compared to torrent! And don't get me started on Magikarp!!!

Arceus didn't have vote editing? Is there proof of that? It seems unlikely that any Pokemon could win against another that had vote editing.

I for one would have been amused if Mudkip won. But kudos to Arceus! Kids who started with Gen V can now get a god all their own!

AR an Arcues. ARing a DW Ditto has no purpose. DW Ditto is wanted for battling and you cant use illegel non-released DW pokemon for battling in offical tornaments.

QUIT YOU'RE COMPLAINING!!!

Yes the vote was probably rigged considering that MUDKIP actually made it to the final three. How is that even possible?!?!?!?! Yes I could see why SOME would want Ditto, but if I remember correctly, POKEMON BRED WITH DITTO DO NOT PASS ON DW ABILITIES! So I don't believe that a DW ability Ditto will pass on the DW ability!

People do not care about Ditto not being able to pass on abilities. People care about the ability that Ditto would have. People have Arcues but noone has this Ditto.

Yeah or, rather than trying to explain to the younger fanbase about scripts and exploits, they could have just as easily made up the list

By vote editing I meant editing of the vote numbers by the Pokémon Company International. Many people wanted the votes of Ditto and Mudkip to be disqualified because they knew that many people who use forums were using the glitch to vote multiple times, including me, and Mudkip and Ditto were not disqualified and they still came 2nd and 3rd so I think it can be assumed that TPCi did not do anything to the vote numbers. After seeing Mudkip become second I also wanted the votes of Ditto and Mudkip to be disqualified even though I voted for Ditto.

Ditto'll most probably appear in the DW at one point or another. Arceus will not. So, while I would've rather had a different legendary (with a secondary ability), I'm content with this.

Not trying to minimod or anything, but does anyone else think it's time this thread closed? All that's going to happen is people complaining back and forth how the Pokémon they wanted didn't win, and how people who already have an Arceus couldnt possibly think that others possibly don't have the same luck. It just seems to be going back and forth now :l

Yes, I too feel its time to close the thread but thats up to the mod's and it is still active and on topic though so....

Blah for Arceus. It's to overated.

Its such a waste that Arceus won. Ditto has such a fun ability that would have made it so useful. *Sigh*
