Pleasantly surprised by Slither Wing being so high. What a cutie.

Don't at all understand Koraidon above Miraidon when Violet was the bigger seller (and surely it can't be because more people wanted the male professor instead of prehistoric waifu).

Pawmi line seems like a moderate success if they end up wanting to push it as the new Pikachu.

Not surprised at all, everyone loves Tinkaton (and Clodsire).

Happy to see Quagsire made the list too, even though you have to go out of your way to get it

Tinkaton is great.

Meowscrada is my tied for my all-time favorite starter and is my favorite of the generation.

Clodsire does nothing for me at all.

Honestly in the end I kind of regretted Violet. Miraidon has a cool gimmick of being a robot but Koraidon has a way cooler final form and I just ended up feeling like Miraidon was a motorbike rather than a partner. It just felt less "alive".

Sylveon and mimikyu top ten in a gen they weren't introduced in. Love to see it.

I don't care for Quagsire (or Wooper, really), but I love Clodsire. Sometimes I think there's no rhyme or reason why I like some Pokemon so much more than others.

Tinkaton is a good concept but I still can't comprehend its popularity, the actual design is ugly as hell imo.

Most surprising thing here is Iron Jugulis's placement. It's the 2nd highest Paradox mon here outside of the Box Legends. At least from comments from the west, It seemed like Iron Jugulis was the least popular Paradox mon.

Oh if you click through to the website, it lists 31-50.

Somehow Salmon-Tatsugiri made it to #6 even with the other two forms splitting the vote. @_@

Perhaps it's the PTSD from Dark Souls talking, but that move where she utterly deletes your mon with the giant hammer makes me wince every time.

people really fell in love with the sandwich doggo lizard that is Koraidon, like i have seen way more more of Koraidon them Miraidon
i just think he's way more expressive and it's easier to like him more just cause he isn't a robot

All of my favorites made it into the top 50, nice! I started Quaxly but Meowscarada is simply top tier design. Not mad at Tinkaton taking top spot either, super reliable team member

Rather surprised that Espeon is MIA. You have Sylveon, Umbreon, Glaceon, Eevee and Leafeon are all ahead of it. Thought Espeon was top 3 Eeveelutions but Sylveon may have stolen its thunder.

Curious if some pokemon got so many votes because they got confused with their paradox partner such as Gardevoir, Larvesta, Hydreigon, etc.

Kudos to the Clod for ranking so high, they are so precious (even if Quagsire is still the best).

I feel bad that Grafaiai and the 4 ruin Pokemon didn't rank, I thought Grafaiai would have been reasonably popular at least with all that pre-release promotion. I wonder how many people who voted actually found any of the ruin Pokemon lol.

Fuck yeah, Tinkaton. They hit an absolute home run with her

Wtf is with Slither Wing. Where's Iron Valiant, that thing's fucking rad

EDIT: Oh, it's at 27 and the bottom of the tweet got cut off for me. Better than nothing

the eeveelution rankings seem solid to me. espeon absolutely can not hang with the cooler kids, but it easily outranks the likes of jolteon

With all the bitching I see online about anthro starters, Japan sure doesn't seem to mind with Meowscarada at #3 lol

Yeah, Meowscarda's gonna be the Gen 9 rep in the next Smash game (assuming they hold off on Gen 10 until Pokémon's 30th anniversary).
