Certain varieties of cucumbers have been bred specifically for use in pickling. By using these varieties, the home pickling enthusiast will end up with a crisper and more flavorful result. If growing cucumbers at home, be sure to select seeds that are labeled as "pickling" or "good for pickling" on the seed packet. Good choices for pickling cucumbers include: Pioneer, National Pickling, Saladin, Bush Pickling Liberty Hybrid, Ballerina, Boston Pickling, and Eureka Hybrid.

No. You can pickle a cucumber (or other items like vegetables or even eggs), but this involves a chemical reaction which cannot be reversed. Most pickling solutions contain spices, salt or vinegar which chemically alter the item being pickled. It might be possible to remove some of the spices or pickling ingredients by soaking in water and rinsing, but you can never return a dill pickle, or other pickled cucumber, into a cucumber again.
