The Pokemon franchise is home to some of the most lovable characters in gaming history and the best part is that they come in all shapes and sizes. From Eevee to Shaymin, these are the cutest Pokemon you’ll find in the Pokedex.
The world of Pokemon has over 1000 unique creatures, and there’s a particular type for everyone. Whether you’re looking for a Water-type, a cat Pokemon, a dog Pokemon, or a fierce Fire-type, it can be hard to choose a favorite.
While some trainers prioritize building up their team with the most powerful creatures like Charizard or Legendaries like Rayquaza, others are simply looking for the cutest designs out there. So, here’s our ranking of the 30 cutest Pokemon of all time.
50. Chingling
- Pokedex number: 0433
- Debut: Diamond & Pearl
- Type: Psychic
Based on festive Holiday bells, Chingling’s not a huggable, fluffy mammal like most of the entries you’ll find here, but it more than makes up for its cold, metallic exterior by emitting charming ringing sounds as a means of emoting.
Continuing the musical trend, Chingling becomes an elongated chime when evolving into Chimeco, rivaling its pre-evolution in the cuteness department but being inched out ever so slightly by the latter due to its compact nature and adorably stubby limbs.
49. Plusle & Minun
- Pokedex number: 0311 & 0312
- Debut: Ruby & Sapphire
- Type: Electric
Due to their near-identical likeness, minus which end of the magnetic spectrum they represent, Plusle and Minun come as a package deal. Like most Pikachu clones, the Electric types don’t have an evolution and aren’t particularly useful in combat.
Still, they make up for their lack of battle prowess with the adorable tendency to act as a cheerleader for their Trainer, emitting electricity to show its joy when teammates perform well.
48. Mimikyu
- Pokedex number: 0778
- Debut: Sun & Moon
- Type: Ghost/Fairy
Okay, so there’s a caveat to this one. Nobody knows what Mimikyu truly looks like, as it hides its true appearance under a disguise intended to look like Pikachu.
Pokedex entries across multiple games reference the fact that Mimikyu’s true form is so hideous that people who’ve witnessed it have died from shock, but come on, is it not cute, albeit tragic, that a Pokemon endeavors to get close to people by attempting to make itself appear approachable?
Poor thing just wants to be loved.
47. Maushold
- Pokedex number: 0925
- Debut: Scarlet & Violet
- Type: Normal
Playing fast and loose with what constitutes a single Pokemon, Maushold is a literal family of mice housed under a single Pokedex entry. To sidestep explaining how children are made, the Gen 9 ‘mon’s Pokedex entry states that the younger mice “just appeared one day” and that their familial relationship is unclear.
Whatever the case, Maushold is an adorable concept and isn’t too shabby in battle, either. It has access to several unique abilities, including its signature 10-hit attack, Population Bomb.
46. Petilil
- Pokedex number: 0548
- Debut: Black & White
- Type: Grass
One of Black & White’s more endearing designs, mono Grass-type Petilil is minute, friendly, and doughy-eyed – all the classic prerequisites for a cute Pokemon. Impressive, considering it’s essentially just a shrub yet to blossom (read: evolve) into Lilligant, which subsequently sees the leaves on its head sprout into a flower.
As a plus, removing the leaves on its head don’t appear to harm Petilil (don’t worry, they grow back), and can be used to brew a medicinal drink.
45. Tatsugiri
- Pokedex number: 0978
- Debut: Scarlet & Violet
- Type: Dragon/Water
Proof that any unremarkable object can be molded into a lovable critter, Tatsugiri is based on different types of sushi, right down to its inflated throat sac serving as the surrogate for a rice bed.
Without contest, Tatsugiri is the smallest Dragon-type to date, a size deficit it more than makes up for with cunning and the ability to defend itself via a symbiotic relationship with Dondozo.
44. Shinx
- Pokedex number: 0403
- Debut: Diamond & Pearl
- Type: Electric
Luxray is a great Electric-type Pokemon, but before it grows into an intimidating lion, it starts as the tiny cub, Shinx.
This cute fellow has a lovely design and color combination that gives glimpses of its type, but it also has details that make it more adorable like the short tuft on its head and cheeks, the yellow lines around its front paws – it adds a line with each evolution – and the star details in both ears and tail.
43. Munchlax
- Pokedex number: 0446
- Debut: Diamond & Pearl
- Type: Normal
The imposing Snorlax has been a fan favorite ever since its debut in Pokemon Red & Blue, and it remains an incredibly powerful choice in many games including the popular Pokemon Go. But in Gen 4, the much smaller – and cuter – Munchlax was introduced as a baby Pokemon that evolves into Snorlax when it reaches high friendship.
If you couldn’t tell by its name, this little ‘mon only has one thing on its mind, and that’s munching food. Those who watched the anime got to know a little bit more of Munchlax’s sweet and funny nature as it appeared as part of May’s team.
42. Bidoof
- Pokedex number: 0399
- Debut: Diamond & Pearl
- Type: Normal
Bidoof has been the subject of internet memes for years, but it’s slowly becoming recognized as one of the most adorable Pokemon yet thanks to its appearance in New Pokemon Snap. Watching the beaver-like creature swim around the water, build dams, and chomp on fluffruit was very charming, and helped bolster its status as a certified cutie.
However, don’t let that fluffiness and big teeth confuse you, Bidoof has a temper, so you better not disturb it.
41. Rockruff
- Pokedex number: 0744
- Debut: Sun & Moon
- Type: Rock
Many of the cutest Pokemon are based on puppies, and Rockruff is definitely up there with the best. It’s lived with humans since ancient times, and will always return to its owner once it knows their scent. Now that’s what you call a good boy.
The floppy ears, big blue eyes, and proud pose give Rockruff a very endearing look. Like all puppies, it’s filled with energy and its eagerness to be pet is quite heartwarming.
However, if you want to keep its cute factor, don’t evolve it, as Lycanroc in its Midnight Form is one of the scariest Pokemon you’ll ever meet.
40. Sandile
- Pokedex number: 0551
- Debut: Black & White
- Type: Ground/Dark
A lot of people might not be huge fans of reptiles, but Sandile is a certified cutie. Its cheeky smile mixed with those circles around its eyes – which make it look like it’s wearing glasses – is a recipe for charm.
Often portrayed as a mischievous and curious Pokemon, Sandile is often seen getting in trouble and then hiding under the sand. However, its good demeanor and playful attitude make it a very cute and approachable Pokemon.
39. Pancham
- Pokedex number: 0674
- Debut: X & Y
- Type: Fighting
There are plenty of bear variants in the world and Pokemon was not far behind with the number of bear-lookalike creatures added to the franchise. Pancham is one of them and it is based on a young panda.
This Pokemon’s cuteness lies in its small size, but big attitude. Despite having a cute furry design, Pancham is known above all for its haughty attitude, which clashes with how it looks.
Pancham’s efforts to look tough with the mischievous grin, glasses, and green leaf on its mouth have the opposite effect and end up making this Pokemon even more endearing.
38. Cutiefly
- Pokedex number: 0742
- Debut: Sun & Moon
- Type: Bug/Fairy
How can you not put a Pokemon with “cutie” in its name on a list of the cutest Pokemon of all time? As its name perfectly describes, Cutiefly is a cute flying bug known for being the smallest Pokemon in existence.
Cutiefly’s design is a mix of butterflies and bees, which makes it look extremely delicate. The translucent wings give it an ethereal and magical touch, highlighted by its soft white and yellow palette.
Its playful and gentle demeanor, as well as its harmless vibe, make Cutiefly a charming and approachable Pokemon.
37. Wooloo
- Pokedex number: 0831
- Debut: Sword & Shield
- Type: Normal
Poor Mareep, it never stood a chance. Wooloo is Pokemon’s newest addition to the sheep-inspired family, sporting a thick coat of wool so dense that it protects Wooloo even when falling from great height.
Know what else it’s good for? Hugging. Lots of hugging. As a mono Normal-type with a pretty unremarkable stat spread, Wooloo and its evolution, Dubwool, aren’t exactly competitive material, but that’s okay. It’s a mascot ‘mon and one of the Sword and Shield era’s most popular Pokedex entries on its cute factor alone.
36. Minccino
- Pokedex number: 0572
- Debut: Black & White
- Type: Normal
The Pokemon franchise is filled with rodent-like creatures such as Pikachu, Rattata, Patrat, Pachirisu, and more. However, not all of them can be as cute as Minccino.
This Gen 5 Pokemon’s petite size clashes with its humongous ears and tail, giving it a disproportionate but really cute design. Plus, the tufts of hair on its forehead, chest, and ears give it a fluffy look that makes you want to hug Minccino all day.
Minccino’s curious and innocent look – along with its playful nature – has trainers looking for this Pokemon everywhere.
35. Amaura
- Pokedex number: 0698
- Debut: X & Y
- Type: Rock/Ice
Those who grew up with The Land Before Time movies will always have a sweet spot for long-necked dinosaurs, which is why the fossil Pokemon known as Amaura is so appealing.
This tiny dinosaur introduced in Gen 6 has a mythical vibe due to its color scheme and design. Its unique striking wide eyes, the gems on its sides, and the iridescent sail-like structure that represents its eyebrows make Amaura an ethereal Pokemon with a cuteness overdose. Plus, it seems to be a very gentle creature.
34. Litleo
- Pokedex number: 0667
- Debut: X & Y
- Type: Fire/Normal
Essentially the feline equivalent of Growlithe, Litleo’s a far dopier-looking ‘mon than its Gen 1 counterpart, adding to the Fire/Normal-type’s charm. Game Freak’s designs based on cats and dogs are often some of its best, and Litleo’s a worthwhile addition to Pokemon’s gallery of endearing four-legged mammals.
Litleo evolves into Pyroar at level 35, eschewing its enchanting expression and tuft of red hair for a full-blown mane and deadly serious disposition.
33. Lillipup
- Pokedex number: 0506
- Debut: Black & White
- Type: Normal
- Pokedex number: 0363
- Debut: Ruby & Sapphire
- Type: Ice/Water
- Pokedex number: 0669
- Debut: X & Y
- Type: Fairy
- Pokedex number: 0025
- Debut: Red & Blue
- Type: Electric
- Pokedex number: 0155
- Debut: Gold & Silver

- Pokedex number: 0440
- Debut: Diamond & Pearl

- Pokedex number: 0759
- Debut: Sun & Moon
- Type: Normal/Fighting
- Pokedex number: 0856
- Debut: Sword & Shield
- Type: Psychic
- Pokedex number: 0580
- Debut: Black & White
- Type: Water/Flying
- Pokedex number: 0194
- Debut: Gold & Silver
- Type: Water/Ground
- Pokedex number: 0147
- Debut: Red & Blue
- Type: Dragon
- Pokedex number: 0037
- Debut: Red & Blue // Sun & Moon
- Type: Fire // Ice
- Pokedex number: 0039
- Debut: Red & Blue
- Type: Normal
- Pokedex number: 0007
- Debut: Red & Blue
- Type: Water
- Pokedex number: 0172
- Debut: Gold & Silver
- Type: Electric
- Pokedex number: 0175
- Debut: Gold & Silver
- Type: Fairy
- Pokedex number: 0816
- Debut: Sword & Shield
- Type: Water
- Pokedex number: 0802
- Debut: Sun & Moon
- Type: Fighting/Ghost
- Pokedex number: 0162
- Debut: Gold & Silver
- Type: Normal
- Pokedex number: 0298
- Debut: Ruby & Sapphire
- Type: Normal/Fairy
- Pokedex number: 0393
- Debut: Diamond & Pearl
- Type: Water
- Pokedex number: 0492
- Debut: Diamond & Pearl
- Type: Grass
- Pokedex number: 0587
- Debut: Black & White
- Type: Electric/Flying
- Pokedex number: 0494
- Debut: Black & White
- Type: Psychic/Fire
- Pokedex number: 0777
- Debut: Sun & Moon

- Type: Normal
- Pokedex number: 0231
- Debut: Gold & Silver
- Type: Ground
- Pokedex number: 0151
- Debut: Red & Blue
- Type: Psychic
- Pokedex number: 0906
- Debut: Scarlet & Violet
- Type: Grass
- Pokedex number: 0613
- Debut: Black & White
- Type: Ice
- Pokedex number: Ruby & Sapphire
- Debut: 0325
- Type: Psychic
- Pokedex number: 0133
- Debut: Red & Blue
- Type: Normal
Another dog Pokemon that earned a spot in our ranking is Lillipup. This Gen 5 pup resembles a very sweet terrier with big expressive brown eyes, puffy fur, and a little nose all in a very tiny body.
Like all dogs, Lillipup is extremely loyal and energetic, and its charm increases due to its friendliness and good demeanor.
Known for its tracking abilities, Lillipup is often used as a radar to help gather information about its surroundings.
32. Spheal
Baby seals are adorable animals with irresistible big round eyes, which is why there are a few Pokemon inspired by them.
The iconic Seel from Gen 1 should be part of this list, but Spheal stole its place by being even cuter. Its extremely round chubby body resembles a plush toy. This, along with its big glassy eyes, wide smile, and tiny fangs make Spheal a very charming Pokemon with a sweet and loving nature.
31. Flabebe
Flabebe is so small that it can rest in the palm of a small human child’s hand with room to spare. What is it, exactly? We’re not entirely sure, but considering it’ll spend its entire life nurturing and caring for a single flower that it takes a liking to, it’s likely intended to act as a pollinator.
Weighing just 100 grams, Flabebe is also one of the lightest Pokemon, beaten mostly by ethereal Ghost-types with no mass to speak of.
30. Pikachu
There’s a reason why Pikachu has become one of the most recognizable mascots in the whole world. It’s just so darn cute!
Whether it’s appearing alongside Ash in the Pokemon anime, at the top of your must-catch wishlist in the games, or on the latest piece of merch, there’s no denying Pikachu is one of the cutest ‘mon of all time.
This is due to its chubby rodent design, round red cheeks, and squeaky sounds, but mostly because of its awesome personality. Pikachu is an amiable, loyal, and funny creature anyone would love to have around.
29. Cyndaquil
Mice are cute, even when they have the uncanny ability to sprout fire from their back. Timid, easily startled, and generally reclusive, Cyndaquil inches out Totodile and Chikorita as the cutest Gen 2 starter, continuing to retain the crown for most adorable Fire-type starter, to boot.
Scarlet and Violet’s Fuecoco came close to usurping Cyndaquil, but the latter’s introverted nature still gives it the edge.
28. Cleffa
It feels somewhat like cheating to include baby Pokemon here but as Smoochum and Mime Jr prove all too well, not every newborn is blessed with cherubic-like charm.
Cleffa, on the other hand, is. Introduced in Gen 2 as a pre-evolution for Clefairy, in-universe lore describes its star-like shape as the cause for people to believe it came from the stars.
27. Happiny
That’s not an egg that Happiny’s got tucked away, but a rock it adopts to mimic Chansey. As if that wasn’t already insufferably cute enough, Happiny appears to nestle itself in an eggcup-shaped harness in its infant state before evolving and ballooning in size.
As its name and nickname suggests, the so-called Playhouse Pokemon is perpetually happy without fault, with one exception. Try to take its rock away and it’ll throw a big old tantrum. So yeah, uh, don’t do that, you monster.
26. Stufful
Like Teddiursa, Pancham, Kubfu, and many others, Stufful is based on a bear cub. Bear cubs are already established as some of the cutest creatures in the world, which is probably why Pokemon decided to take inspiration from them several times.
In Stufful’s case, its bear design is mixed with pink and white tones that along with its very round head makes it look like a giant candy. The pointy ears, round tail, big chunky paws, and smile can melt the iciest heart.
However, Stufful dislikes being touched, so you’ll have to appreciate it from a safe distance.
25. Hatenna
The antithesis to Impidimp, both of which are based on European and British folklore, Hatenna specifically, is based loosely on witchcraft, but you can check the negative connotations of that at the door.
Hatenna’s a good, lovable little witch who’s extremely sensitive to others’ emotions. For that reason, they tend to avoid others, with the hat-shaped protrusion on its head more or less acting as an emotion sensor.
24. Ducklett
An oddly-colored waterfowl it may be, but Ducklett is, by and large, just a real-world duck.
Game Freak didn’t even try to hide that fact with the ‘mon’s name, but hey, why try and improve on perfection? Ducks are cute as they are, so barring some minor stylistic flourishes, Ducklett, like its Earthly counterpart, is a no-brainer for inclusion here.
23. Wooper
The amphibious Wooper is based on an axolotl, which is already a cute creature. Throw in one of the widest mouths in the franchise along with the smallest eyes and you have one funny – though sweet-looking – creature.
What adds to Wooper’s appeal is that it’s a dull-witted Pokemon oblivious to its surroundings. Because of its timid and childish nature, it prefers to stay close to its evolved form, Quagsire, for protection.
The fact that Wooper has no arms could be creepy, by in its tiny body and with that face, it only makes it more endearing.
22. Dratini
The OG Dragon Pokemon, Dratini, like all of its Gen 1 brethren, benefits from being of the classic Pokemon design, complete with puppy dog eyes that melt even the coldest heart.
Besides those welcoming peepers, though, it’s Dratini’s oval-shaped snoot that brings the whole look together. Admit it, you can’t help but feel compelled to reach through your screen and boop it even as you sit there reading this.
21. Vulpix
The original Gen 1 Pokemon will always hold a special place in the hearts of longtime trainers, but even without that feeling of nostalgia, it’s hard to deny that Vulpix is one of the most adorable creatures in the franchise – and now it has an Alolan form, there’s double the cuteness!
The fox inspiration along with the wide eyes, fluffy tuft and tail, along with the sweet and delicate cry put both Vulpix versions on our ranking.
Plus, the regular form was one of Brock’s Pokemon in the OG anime, so there’s an extra attachment to this foxy creature.
20. Jigglypuff
The singing Pokemon known as Jigglypuff has long been the unofficial face of ‘cute’ in the Pokemon franchise, appearing on all kinds of merch like t-shirts and phone cases.
It may have been pushed down the list by newer Pokemon over the last two decades, but it just about holds onto a spot in our top 10, mainly due to that adorable tuft of fur on its head and incredibly big round eyes.
In the anime, Jigglypuff showed its larger-than-life personality by chasing Ash and the gang just to sign to them. Unfortunately, it became very frustrated by the fact that everybody kept falling asleep in every performance.
19. Squirtle
All of the original Kanto starters are worthy of the term ‘cute’, but we think Squirtle is even more adorable than Charmander and Bulbasaur, and it’s mostly due to its incredibly fun and loveable personality.
This tortoise-inspired creature hides away inside its shell when it feels threatened and has one of the most recognizable cries. Even when it’s trying to be cool as a shades-wearing member of the Squirtle Squad gang, it fails because it’s just too charming.
Eventually, it loses its cuteness when it evolves into the mighty Blastoise. However, it’s an amazing Water-type Pokemon to have on your team, so don’t be sad.
18. Pichu
Petite, wide-eyed, and unfailingly happy, Pichu, like the franchise mascot that it evolves into, captures the hearts of all who lay eyes on it with its big ears and trademark cheek pads.
Young as it is, the Electric-type has yet to master the art of storing electric charge, meaning its prone to emit sparks out of excitement, surprising itself in the process.
17. Togepi
One of the most recognizable Pokemon for trainers who grew up watching the OG anime is Togepi, as this adorable creature was Misty’s sidekick for more than 200 episodes.
It’s literally a baby inside an eggshell, so it was bound to be adorable. Plus, its round shape, stubby arms, and round squishy feet add to the equation. Even its evolved forms, Togetic and Togekiss, are pretty darn cute.
16. Sobble
When the Galar region starters were unveiled ahead of Pokemon Sword & Shield, the obvious standout for lovers of all things cute was definitely the ultimate sad boy, Sobble.
This Water-type Pokemon’s defining trait is bursting into tears whenever it’s scared – we can relate to that – so it’s only natural that we all just want to hold it close and give it a hug.
This sobbing lizard with huge eyes is elusive and quite timid, and it might be even hard to spot as it can turn itself invisible when wet.
15. Marshadow
But one of three Mythical Pokemon to appear on this list, Marshadow is also one of few Ghost-types not designed to look outwardly unsettling. What it’s based on isn’t clear, though in Pokedex entries, it’s said to never appear before humans, able to occupy their shadows to remain hidden in plain sight.
Marshadow was the only Ghost/Fighting-type Pokemon in the entire franchise until the infinitely angrier Annihilape was introduced in Scarlet & Violet.
14. Furret
Similar to Ducklett, Furret isn’t so much the result of an inspiration but a stylized version of a real-world animal, in this case, ferrets.
Sporting four stubby limbs, whiskers, and a large busy tail, Furret’s design is classic Pokemon design circa the early 2000s. Not overcomplicated, or color mismatched. Just a ferret, but butter.
13. Azurill
Both Marill and Azumarill are great Pokemon, with the latter one even being one of the best fighters of all time excelling in Pokemon Go, Unite, and Scarlet & Violet. However, it’s their baby form, Azurill, the one that got a spot in this ranking.
The incredibly small size plus the color, round ears, and the fact that it walks by bouncing on its own tail (which is the same size as its whole body) makes Azurill extremely cute and loveable.
12. Piplup
Everyone loves penguins, so it stands to reason that everyone loves Piplup! This Gen 4 starter almost looks like a child’s toy with its soft blue color scheme and tiny beak, and although it evolves into one of the best starter evolutions, Empoleon, we’re always tempted to keep Piplup exactly the way it is because it’s so cute.
In the anime, Piplup was introduced as Dawn’s Pokemon, and it became one of the highlights of the show thanks to the clash between its endearing look and incredibly bad temper and competitiveness.
11. Shaymin – Land Forme
Legendaries may be absent from this list because of their ferocious nature, but there are plenty of adorable Mythical creatures, and Shaymin is one of them.
While both Land and Sky Formes are desirable, it’s the hedgehog-inspired Land Forme that really takes the cake. How could anyone resist that round body, adorable face, and the flowers that grow on its back when it’s happy? Plus, it’s so small and squishable that you’ll never want to let go.
10. Emolga
This flying squirrel resembles fellow rodents like Minccino, Deddene, Togedemaru, and even Pikachu. However, Emolga is special in its own way.
The tiny body, big glassy eyes, cute color scheme, and yellow details that allude to its Electric type are just the tip of the iceberg. Emolga is a very resourceful fella that uses its cheeks to produce electric shocks to grill its food – talk about a chef – but it also has a temper, so be careful.
The best part of Emolga? It doesn’t have an evolution, so you can travel with it and level it up all you want without it changing forms.
9. Victini
A mythical riff on the Pikachu clone trope, Victini’s Psychic/Fire typing makes it absurdly powerful as an offensive attacker, while also difficult to take down due to taking half damage from a whopping seven different types.
That it’s incredibly cute to boot should be illegal, but here we are.
8. Togedemaru
Any creature known as the ‘Roly-Poly Pokemon’ was bound to get a spot on this list, so it should come as no surprise to see Togedemaru placing so highly.
It’s pretty much a ball of excitement with tiny feet, even tinier hands, and Pikachu-inspired markings. It’s impossible not to want to squeeze this little rodent. However, don’t make it angry, or you’ll face the wrath of those fur spikes on its back.
7. Teddiursa
What can be more cute than a literal teddy bear? Teddiursa’s small size, round ears, brown fur, and moon detail on its forehead make this Pokemon extremely endearing.
Teddiursa is known for being a little mischievous and can be usually found creating its own honey using Beedrill pollen and fruits. When it gets honey, the crescent moon on its forehead will glow, making this bear unbearably cute.
However, as with real-life cubs, you shouldn’t mess with this tiny creature. It might look very innocent, but it can be quite tough, and even tougher – and scarier – when it evolves into Ursaring.
6. Phanpy
Elephants are one of the most majestic animals in the world, but when they’re young, they’re also one of the cutest – so it’s no surprise that a Pokemon based on a baby elephant would appear on this list.
With a pastel blue color, large trunk, and floppy ears that it uses to cool itself down, Phanpy is the perfect cute companion.
It appeared in the anime as Ash’s Pokemon, but like many others on this list, Phanpy loses all of its cuteness when it evolves into Donphan.
5. Mew
The second Mythic on our list is the adorable Mew, a favorite of long-time Pokemon fans who’ve been with the franchise since Gen 1. This elusive fellow has the perfect balance between cuteness and strength, keeping it relevant over the years.
Legend says Mew contains the DNA of every single Pokemon in its body, and clearly, it favored the cute ones to get those giant eyes, adorable sounds, and playful personality traits. Most Psychic types have a creepy element to them, but not this iconic pink creature.
4. Sprigatito
The latest Grass Starter has quickly risen over other Pokemon – including its fellow felines – and settled as one of the most adorable Pokemon in the franchise.
Let’s be honest, all cats are cute, but Sprigatito’s big eyes, soft tones, fluffy fur, and pointy ears have trainers in love. Plus, anime watchers have had the chance to get to know it a little further, as it appeared as Liko’s Pokemon.
It does add to its appeal that its final stage, Meowscarada, is one hell of a fighter and has been killing it across games such as Pokemon Unite.
3. Cubchoo
It might be controversial to place the Ice-type Cubchoo above the likes of Pikachu and Mew, but can you blame us? Even the snot coming out of its nose is somehow adorable.
Similar to Teddiursa and bears, baby polar bears are some of the cutest animals in the world – and if we could, we would be running towards them to hug their fluffy bodies – so of course Pokemon had to add their own version to their Pokedex.
Like many on this list, Cubchoo evolves into one of the least-cute Pokemon in the franchise, the intimidating Beartic. But until that happens, you’ll just want to give it a big hug.
2. Spoink
Has your heart melted yet after looking at that picture? No? Keep looking.
Spoink was designed by an angel and sent to this earthly plane by the heavens themselves. Every aspect of its design is worth fawning over. Cute little eyes, pink cheek pads to lovingly pinch, a ball it balances on its head and plays with? It’s too much.
The star of the show, of course, is the springy tail that Spoink uses to hop around on, and also part of its tragic lore. If it ever stops bouncing on its tail, which causes its heart to pump, it’ll die.
1. Eevee
While Pikachu may be the most iconic Pokemon of all time, it’s another Kanto region creature that’s earned the top spot on our cute list… Eevee! Is it a fox? Is it a cat? A dog? No one really knows, but maybe it’s the fact that it takes the most adorable parts of all of these animals that makes it so irresistible. Eevee is without a doubt the cutest Pokemon ever thanks to its design, sweet and calm nature, and also its iconic evolutions.
We can agree that several Eeveelutions are incredible. However, the Fairy-type Sylveon is the ultimate fan-favorite thanks to its lovely pastel pink color scheme, good type, and incredible power, and while some might be put off by its mildly unsettling stare, most trainers love this Gen 6 beauty.
Those are our picks for the cutest Pokemon of all time. You can also check out the ranking for the creepiest Pokemon, as well as our selection for top Grass and Electric-type creatures.
