Unfortunately, none of the above. The most important stat depends on what you're going to use the Pokemon for. If you want to sweep, Special Attack or Attack as well as Speed are equally important. If you want to tank, Speed is no longer the most important consideration, but HP, Defense and/or Special Defense is.

I voted for HP, it's applicable to most battling roles. Sweepers also need HP to last long enough.

Anyway, your poll was lacking some of the stats. I've added them to the poll options for you.

I think Speed would be the most important stat for me. I find Speed is important for all my Pokemon except Wobbuffet, since it always attacks last. Defense and Sp.Defense are equally important as well as HP.

I don't know what to choose. :?
I finally decided to vote for Special Attack 'cause I give a lot of calcuim to my pokemon because(yes, again :P ) most of my pokemon are based on Special Attacks(Water, Ice, and Electric)
The only psycial type I use is Flying and Fighting because(Ohnoooo... again. I have so many reasons :oops: ) incase of a tank...

Speed. Even on a tank, if you get the first hit, that Will-o-wisp will cut the power of your opponent's next move, making your Dusclops more Tank-ish.

The least important stat in my opinion, would be HP. Don't ask why.

None. I think they all are. One uber stat and 5 horrible stats will do no good. When I make a team, I try to even it out a bit.

Since the Attacks/Defenses can be of various impoertance, I have to go with Speed, with HP a close 2nd.

I think it's HP.
I think Speed is not that important, because if you can take down your opponent with good Attack/Sp Attack and it can't get you down because of your HP and Defence/Sp Defence, then you'll win whatever your speed is.

Definately Special Defense. You have to be able to protect yourself against those big blows.

Speed. I favor that soooo much over attacking stats because every last detail of Speed can make a huge difference in the game. For defending Pokemon, HP.

That's not a stat. :roll:

As stated, I don't think one is more important than the other. Combine Krisp and sN0w's thoughts and you have mine.

I'd say speed. Considering that several matchups are one or 2 hit KOs, the faster pokemon is the winner.

speed, definitely...

its way better than those other drugs... i mean... errrr...

really though, even if you group atk and satk together and def and sdef together so that you dont run into conflicts regarding what types of attacks you have verses what stat, i still think speed is more important that attack (read as attack or special attack), as speed basically contributes to your attack and defense by giving you the first shot and by giving your opponent one less shot when you KO it...

of course it's highly situation, but i think he's just looking for a general answer... do you prefer pokemon that are faster, do you prefer more defensive pokemon, do you like all out attacks, or do you like the HP whores the most?
