About this Starter Pokemon Ranking ranking

Rank 30 starter pokemon ranking items blindly — items appear one at a time and you place each into a tier without seeing what's coming next. This blind ranking format makes for unexpected results: you might give the first item top tier, only to regret it three rounds later when something better appears.

Unlike a normal tier list where you can see every option upfront and rearrange at will, a blind ranking forces you to commit. That commitment makes the final tier list a more honest reflection of how each starter pokemon ranking item actually feels in the moment, not how it looks compared to the rest of the list.

The full list of 30 items below is randomized for each playthrough, so two attempts at this starter pokemon ranking blind ranking won't feel the same. When you're done, you can share your tier list, replay solo, or invite friends for a synchronized party round.
