Hmm, a winged dinosaur with bananas growing out of its neck, or a psychic coconut tree with legs? I vote Tropius. I like its design better, it's a wonderful HM slave, but most importantly, it has bananas growing out of its neck. How is that not badass?
Tropius 4 life!!
 
they're both pretty sweet. i like how derpy exeggutor is, and how good it was in first gen. however...

natural harmonia tropius

so obviously my vote must lie with tropius.
 
Exeggutor has my vote because of the derpy palm tree look and my general affinity for multi-headed beings which relate to ridiculuous split personality antics.
 
I have good memories of both Tropius and Exeggutor, but I'll have to go with Tropius for the Pokémon Emerald memories! <3
...plus, a flying banana dinosaur is quite awesome.
 
Don't like either... both are ugly forgettable Pokémon. I'll just go with Exeguttor or however you spell it because it has dat gen 1 swag
 
I always didn't like the awkward position of bananas in Tropius. Exeggutor is someone I always wanted to use and is also one of the very few who can use the awesome sounding Barrage and Egg Bomb. Plus it's a tree with egg heads, one of the most unique Pokemon designs I've come across.
 
Tropius of course. what are you thinking people. You prefer a tree with stupidly painted faces more than a damn flying brontosaurus? Shame on all of you.
 
Tropius. I love its design, the best of Gen III, imo. Exeggutor's expressions are creepy. Plus, its RBY sprite explains everything.

Bruh, it's a banana beard. dat Boss Banana Beard.
So i gotta go with Triple B aka Tropius . He's a fuckin dinohsawrrr.

That other fugly palm tree creature/ fire-wood has NO ARMS. Imagine walking and you get tired so you find somewhere to sit down...hmm this tree log looks better then the ground...so you sit down then quickly jump up when you realize its a fugly exeggutor that has fallen on it's face(s) and cant get up. Poor thing has to be at the bottom of the pokemon food chain. They're gonna be fossil pokemon in gen 7
 
Tropius. I like it's design better. Plus, it taught me about having a balanced team in Emerald. (Hint: Having 4 Flying-types on the same team, no matter how many different secondary types there are)
 
Ok, updating the title of this.

Also tropius. Why could you not be available earlier in colo, I want to use you in it so much.. ;_;
 
Tropius

1) I prefer bananas over coconut
2) I like the design more, dinosaurs are awesome and are even better when they can fly :p.
 
Tropius

Why? Two words.

Banana Meteor!

Srsly though, Tropius is just one of the most hilariously awesome designs ever. A banana beard growing, flying, leaf colored Sauropod. What could be more awesome?
 
Exeggutor

While Tropius is cool and all, it's sadly forgettable. It's too weak to justify being so rare, and it has nothing but its looks going for it. It doesn't feel very "fleshed out", as in having any pronounced characteristics or behaviour, save for that fruit. It's a flying dinosaur growing bananas like a beard. It sounds awesome, but the concept is poorly explored. Every description of Tropius focuses on its fruit, and that only. It ends up being "just another grass/flying".

Exeggutor, on the other hand, sets the tone with its goofy expressions and carefree walk. It's a walking tree, and apparently psychic too, because hey, why not? It's also strong enough to be meritable in-game. It can hold its own in battle, and take on many roles on a team. Sweeper, sleeper or annoyer, Exeggutor has it. It can also go boom, for some reason (learning Explosion). It also helps that Exeggutor requires evolution of Exeggcute, instead of coming "readily available" like Tropius. The sight of an evolving Pokémon mid-way through your ingame run helps build a sense of progress. It's a definite goal to be completed, as you watch your beloved 'mon become stronger upon evolution.

Also, Exeggutor and Exeggcute are the sole users of Barrage. It's a crappy signature move, but at least it is one. It's an acknowledgement of the Pokémon's uniqueness.
 
Tropius

Sorry, but Tropius is too awesome. It has a large nostalgia factor as well since Sapphire was the first game I had and I trained it up because when you find a big banana tree dinosaur in the grass what else do you do but catch it and attempt to face off Winona with it?
