"Wolfe "WolfeyVGC" Glick is one of the most prolific competitive Pokémon players, has won the official World Championship tournament, and creates YouTube videos about competitive play on the regular. So when he creates a video ranking every single Pokémon, I am sat."
"Wolfey worked with a small panel to rank Pokémon based on their competitive viability, their design, and how "iconic" they are in the grand scheme of the franchise. Obviously those are subjective parameters, and Wolfey says as much, so nobody needs to get mad about where their favorite ended up."
"The video is nearly four hours long and ranks 1133 Pokémon, which is a much higher number than the 1025 Pokémon currently registered in the Pokédex. This is because Wolfey placed regional variants and other forms as their own entries, rather than lumping them all into one."
Wolfe Glick, a prolific competitive Pokémon player and World Championship winner, created a nearly four-hour video ranking all 1133 Pokémon, including regional variants and alternate forms as separate entries. The ranking evaluated Pokémon across three subjective criteria: competitive viability, design quality, and iconic status within the franchise. Kyogre, the legendary sea deity, claimed the top position, narrowly surpassing Groudon, its land-based counterpart. The ranking represents a collaborative effort with a small panel and serves as a thought experiment rather than definitive judgment, acknowledging the inherent subjectivity in comparing Pokémon across multiple dimensions.
