Yeah, this spreadsheet is fantastic and has a lot of great information in it. It's so much better than anything I could have done, at least without a ton of learning on the fly and probably screwing it up.

And I definitely want to apologize to everyone who had to deal with the first four gens under me. Especially seeing how much better Steiner was able to run it.

Comments:
PrinceKaro (1) - Now, this is how you make a humanoid pokemon. Still somewhat animalish so it doesnt feel weird to have it as a pet, and androgynous enough so it still seems right regardless of what gender you get. Simply superb.
Johnbobb (4) - https://imgur.com/FiGtooo
XIII_Rocks (8) - Yeah I can't not like Cinderace. It's a terrific Pokemon and the football theme is executed so well.
Luster Soldier (9) - Fits the British inspired Galar region pretty well with the whole soccer (football) theme in its design, and its signature move Pyro Ball being an animation of Cinderace kicking a flaming ball at an opposing Pokemon. It also has a Gigantamax form where it's standing on top of a giant flaming ball.
Inviso (24) - Not even me being a furry could net Cinderace a higher placement. It's still fast, but I honestly hate the color scheme and design (and the mono-typing).
Paratroopa1 (30) - cute rabbit slightly offset by slightly weird astro boy vibes
DragonGargoyle (44) - I like it when monsters are sports/exercise-themed
Bane_Of_Despair (65) - It's a rabbit, it uses its feet, make it a soccer/football player inspired! That's fine, althought the design itself is not the best for me especially for a starter. The Gigantimax form is kind of funny though, it just standing on a giant orb of fire giving me Asuka "Pathetic" vibes.
Ermine (69) - Furries have at it.
mnk (83) - It's kinda weird how much I don't like this line's soccer player motif, when I don't really mind Passimian's football motif. I guess it's all in how much more humanoid Cinderace is, while Passimian still looks like an animal. Cinderace just looks like it belongs to a completely different franchise with its own Saturday morning cartoon.
PrinceOfKoopas (96) - One of the worst things brought to Pokmon, so of course it featured in the anime. Good thing it's not in Smash!

Comments:
mnk (5) - I've always liked this one, but from what I can tell, it tends to go underappreciated. Maybe this project will prove me wrong though.
PrinceOfKoopas (13) - Dubwool is okay too but it loses Wooloo's cuteness.
hotdogturtle (19) - Underrated as a bulky physical Normal type.
Paratroopa1 (24) - beeg
NFUN (26) - One of a very few Pokemon in this generation I can take gameplay into account for their rating. I was playing Showdown with a friend and swept half his team with a Cotton Guard/Body Press Dubwool. Dude had no fucking idea. Outside of that, very mediocre
Johnbobb (36) - https://imgur.com/8Sre2Td
Luster Soldier (39) - MASSIVE downgrade in design compared to Wooloo. The popularity of Wooloo was due to being a very cute sheep, and Dubwool is severely lacking in the cute department. Still a lot better than a good amount of Pokemon from this generation.
Inviso (41) - This is decently strong, but it's kinda basically, especially in a generation with another new mono-type Normal early route Pokemon.
Bane_Of_Despair (45) - Pretty much a perfect sheep Pokemon evolution! Nothing overly fancy, just a solid sheep evolution design.

Bane_Of_Despair (27) - It's a birb. A good starting birb at that.
andylt (30) - Considering my fondness for birds, I'm a bit disappointed by Rookidee. Maybe it's because I'm too familiar with actual blue tits but the black looks wrong, and there's something off about the ey- wait, the white isn't part of its eyes? OK that actually helps.
NFUN (33) - Birb

PrinceOfKoopas (59) - Rookie numbers.
Inviso (87) - This is cute, but it's just SO friggin' basic.

Cinderace is a Pokemon that almost works for me, but ends up being relegated to the "mid" tier. It looks just a little too humanoid and something about its patterns feel a bit off ...

And yeah, I'm a furry too.

Dubwool is maximum FLOOF and I'm going to say the sacrilegious thing and say that it's just as cute as Wooloo, if not more. Surprisingly high ranking for a normal type from me. I usually just don't care much for em!

I looked at Rookiedee and looked at what I gave it. I was surprised for a moment, but then I looked at the birb's eyes again. In reality, its probably just that its in a section of my list full of heavy hitters.

Bane_Of_Despair (4) - It's a puppy with a heart on its butt! Another one that was shown pretty early on in previews I think, and an excellent choice. Elktrike wishes it could be Yamper.
mnk (9) - Good fluffy boy.
NFUN (25) - gonna guess a third of the comments on him will be angst that he's so high because he's a dog, and another third will be "DOGGY!"
Paratroopa1 (36) - normally Im a cat person but I will put differences aside to support a corgi
Johnbobb (45) - https://imgur.com/fr3J8o3
Inviso (60) - I had a corgi for a good chunk of my life, and I just wish this one looked a little lessderpy. Some of the designs this Gen look far too cartoonish for my tastes.
Luster Soldier (63) - This regional dog Pokemon has a really derpy looking face, and not in a good kind of derpy way.
andylt (75) - Too cutesy without actually being cute. I much prefer the evo.
hotdogturtle (89) - It has a non-battle-relevant ability that's actually good for utility. You can use it for capturing legendary Pokemon in rare balls that you only have 1 of.
PrinceOfKoopas (94) - Not a fan of this mutt.
