I think Azelf is the coolest looking, but I never have bothered with actually catching those. I always faint them so I can move on and get my National Dex. :\
 
I'd complain as to why Uxie is so popular and Mesprit so unpopular, but when it comes down to it, I can't decide which I like better between those two...

My favorite is probably Azelf, though. Mine has captured my heart with his chance great nature and IVs and I use him often. I don't think I could've gotten a better Azelf if I were trying.

My main conflict with choosing a favorite here is I also relate them to Revolutionary Girl Utena characters (because their hairstyles match) and while I like those characters a certain way I may not like their Pokemon counterparts as much... but I want to.

I have Mesprit in my personal army. It is the most balanced out of the three, with a solid defense, attack, and speed. I could care less about sprites; their function on the battlefield is more important.
 
In all reality, in a battle, Azelf would most likely win simply because it has such high attack stats.

Agreed. If it has good speed IVs/EVs and a Special Attack IV of more than like, five, defenses won't matter. You strike first, you OHKO. If you don't OHKO... either you should have switched or you'll live to at least strike a second time.
Mesprit... could be utilized in a different way maybe, but compared to Azelf it's second-best in sweeping for sure.

Excessive balance can often lead to a Pokémon falling into disuse, in favor of more focused alternatives. However, in Mesprit's case those balanced stats allow it to be more versatile than the likes Cresselia and Azelf. One of Mesprit's great selling points is the potential to counter three of the biggest threats in OU, and thanks to moves like Stealth Rock, Thunder Wave, Reflect, and U-turn, it can provide some good support to a team.
