Why it matters
The top ten divides between Pokemon chosen for strength or cool appearance, such as Lucario and Charizard, and ones chosen for cuteness or their evolutions, as with Eevee and its evolved forms Sylveon and Glaceon.
Charizard is second and Eevee third. Pikachu sits eighth. From tenth to first the list runs Glaceon, Piplup, Pikachu, Dragonite, Gardevoir, Greninja, Sylveon, Charizard, Eevee and Lucario.
The poll is still open, so the posted order is a snapshot taken as of November 1. Voters choose from the 1,025 Pokemon the site lists for the series. Comments left on Charizard point to it as the evolved form of a first partner, Charmander, and to its run on television. Eevee draws support for its looks, its fluffy tail and the number of Pokemon it can evolve into. Lucario comments lean on cool and strong, and on its turn as the lead of a film.
- Glaceon: 10th
- Piplup: 9th
- Pikachu: 8th
- Dragonite: 7th
- Gardevoir: 6th
- Greninja: 5th
- Sylveon: 4th, one of the Eevee evolutions
- Charizard: 2nd, cited as Charmander's evolution
- Eevee: 3rd, cited for its looks and many evolutions
- Lucario: 1st, cited as cool and strong, and for leading a film
