OGG. Ogg Vorbis is an open, patent-free lossy codec. Games, Android notification sounds and many Linux apps use it.
WAV. WAV stores raw PCM samples with no compression at all. What you save is exactly what the editor sees, which is why studios and editors use it.
What happens to quality
WAV is lossless, but it can’t restore what the OGG encoder already removed. You get an exact copy of the OGG sound in a format editors accept, at a much bigger file size. Hear the difference between lossless and MP3 yourself.
