My post is about the first game but X-2 is welcome as well:

Whenever I play this game I always go to Luca and pick up Zev Ronso. I don't know why. He's always a staple for me. Maybe his NPC text is witty? I can't remember. But after the first playthrough I just kept going back and getting him.

I also use Wakka because of his familiarity, even though his stats aren't the best.
