Toxtricity is a Pokemon that rests just shy of my top 100. Sometimes I look at it and go, "wow why didn't I rank this higher" and other times I go "yeah this giant space bat (my actual #100) is where it's at". Still, when there's over a thousand of these guys, that's still a compliment! Love the colour scheme, the aesthetic, the type combination ... I also love how it kind of has that gen 1 vibe of just being a weird animal, but it also still has strong design influences of the more recent gens.

Sirfetch'd may be my number 20, but it is also another one of those Pokemon I place pretty highly. Holy cow there's over a thousand of these things! The idea of a Farfetch'd using its leek like a sword is a pretty novel one, I mean Cut was practically its signature move ... So I'm glad they expanded upon this idea and doubled down on it.

Dragapult! Is my sixth favourite Pokemon of all time (though just my second favourite pseudo legend!) and boy is it just so great. I made a picture of it the lock screen of my phone like a year ago and I still smile whenever I look at it. A really cool design, but with a little bit of goofiness (it launches its CHILDREN say what!), and making a stealth bomber inspired Pokemon a ghost type is an extra layer of hilarity. I love though that it's also a doting parent too. Every single aspect of this Pokemon gives me so much joy.

Corviknight ranks as my 49th favourite overall,which isn't bad for a winner if I do say so myself. Every single Pokemon in my top 50 gives me immense joy. I love crows and ravens so much. They're cool and clever fuckers, and making one a sleek knight of a bird fucking rocks. A solid design that doesn't overdo it at all. God, this guy fucking rocks and I'm perfectly happy with it as a winner.

Really cool! I had a lot of fun with this! I'm pretty happy with this top five overall, even this top ten. I feel like if there weren't so many Pokemon, I could see most of these later entries being a favourite in another timeline. So surprised Grapploct and Centiskorch did so well and so happy about that too.

Thank you Steiner for putting this together! Hopefully I'll be around when we do gen 9. Gholdengo gang assemble!
