I Ranked The 50 Cutest Pokémon While Incessantly Squealing And It Was No Easy Feat (2024)

    These Pokémon are the ones you're going to want to squeeze forever.

    by Angela AndaloroBuzzFeed Contributor

    Have you ever seen something so adorable you just want to pick it up and squish it into the tightest hug possible? This is a phenomenon called cuteness aggression, and you're not alone. Lots of people act this way, especially when it comes to cute Pokémon.

    OLM Team Ota

    With hundreds of Pokémon in the National Pokédex, it's a tall order to pick the cutest ones, let alone rank them. But someone has to be brave enough to do it, so here is my humble attempt to rank the 50 cutest Pokémon in all of existence.

    OLM Team Ota

    If your favorite didn't make the list, drop it in the comments!

    50. Sobble

    A cute Pokémon that likes to cry, but their crying makes other people cry, and now everyone is crying.

    49. Diancie

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Diancie is supposed to be one of the loveliest sights in the Pokémon world, and I can't disagree! It has a sweet face and an even sweeter demeanor.

    48. Yamper

    The light-up eyes on this little electric pup win so many fans over.

    47. Marshadow

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Marshadow is yet another sweet mythical Pokémon, with a dark side to boot.

    46. Sylveon

    The Pokémon Company / Via giphy.com

    Sylveon is the only Eevee evolution to make the list, which is a pretty big deal. Those big, blue eyes on that sweet face with ribbony hair is too much!

    45. Grookey

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    This Galar starter hasn't been out long, but its adorable face has already made fans of many.

    44. Shuppet

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Shuppet looks like a little tissue paper ghost that you'd make in kindergarten, but it can also shoot waves out of its big eyes.

    43. Cubchoo

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    A tiny bear with a runny nose?! I mean, come on.

    42. Meloetta

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Meloetta looks almost like an excited little girl in a Halloween costume, and it's so happy!

    41. Victini

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Victini has big winner energy with a bunny-like appearance.

    39. Plusle (and Minun)

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    You get a two for one with these two, because who can choose?

    38. Stufful

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Stufful is described as a flailing Pokémon. This teddy bear-like Pokémon's flails are the best.

    37. Cosmog

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    How can a colorful little nebula be so cute? I don't quite know, but Cosmog does.

    36. Manaphy

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Most of Manaphy's body is made of water. They swim all through the ocean to return to their birthplaces.

    35. Pumpkaboo

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Pumpkaboos are the only Pokémon to come in a variety of sizes, from small to super-sized.

    34. Celebi

    The Pokémon Company / Via giphy.com

    Not only is Celebi a cutie, but it's also one of the most powerful Pokémon to exist thanks to its ability to time travel.

    33. Pancham

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Pancham is a fighting type that means business, but who could fight with that face?!

    32. Dratini

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Dratini eventually becomes the sleek Dragonair and the mighty Dragonite. In the meantime, it's an adorable wet dragon noodle.

    31. Togepi

    The Pokémon Company / Via giphy.com

    Togepi is one of the OG cuties. We watched Togepi grow from an egg to a star, and no I'm not crying — you're crying.

    30. Shaymin

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Shaymin is like a hedgehog, but instead of spikes, it has leaves and flowers. Pretty delightful trade if you ask me.

    29. Munchlax

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Munchlax is the equally hungry, equally endearing prequel to Snorlax. When they're not eating, you can catch them snoozing.

    28. Wooper

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    The expression on Wooper's face is one of the best things in all of Pokémon.

    27. Emolga

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Emolga is a kind of like a flying squirrel, but way, way more cuddly.

    26. Pichu

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Inkay is a delightful little squid with a healthy appetite.

    Jigglypuff is little and enraged, and it speaks to me on a deeper level.

    23. Phanpy

    A teeny little elephant with enthusiasm and a charming smile, Phanpy is the whole package and then some.

    22. Drifloon

    The Pokémon Company / Via giphy.com

    Drifloon just float around like little, dangerous balloons.

    21. Ampharos

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Ampharos kind of looks like a dinosaur, but cuter than any animated dinosaur I've seen. Bonus points because I love its color scheme.

    20. Espurr

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    It is a puppy? It is a kitty? It looks fluffy, and the purple eyes add to the appeal for sure.

    19. Joltik

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    You probably never imagined yourself thinking a spider way cute, but Joltik's here to change that.

    18. Clefairy

    The Pokémon Company / Via giphy.com

    Tell me you don't want to channel your inner grandma and pinch Clefairy's cheek.

    Tepig is a fiery pig with sweet little bunny ears that just looks so happy, even when it's mid-attack.

    12. Charmander

    The Pokémon Company / Via giphy.com

    One of the original three, his big eyes and heart-wrenching backstory make Charmander pretty hard to resist.

    11. Cyndaquil

    The Pokémon Company / Via giphy.com

    This Johto starter is so cute that you almost forget about the fire spikes all over its back.

    10. Oddish

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Is it a little berry? Is it a tiny plant? Doesn't matter — I love it.

    9. Torchic

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Torchic is a happy little fire chickadee just hopping around and setting things aflame.

    8. Squirtle

    The Pokémon Company / Via giphy.com

    Squirtle has a special place in my heart as one of the original starters, but also how cute are they?!

    ThePokémon Company / Via giphy.com

    The 151stPokémon is also one of the cutest for sure.

    6. Mudkip

    The Pokémon Company / Via giphy.com

    Mudkip's big head and sweet smile send me.

    5. Eevee

    The Pokémon Company / Via giphy.com

    Not only is Eevee cute in and of itself, but it evolves into such a variety of other cute Pokémon. It only gets better!

    4. Komala

    WHAT A KOALA-TY Pokémon, amirite? This sweet Pokémon is always cuddling, and what's cuter than that?

    3. Turtwig

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    Turtwig is another Pokémon that gets points for being part-plant. It's also a sweet little turtle that is clearly very enthusiastic about the drums.

    2. Jirachi

    The Pokémon Company / Via tenor.com

    This steel/psychic type mythical Pokémon even has a cute legend attached to it. If you encounter a sleeping Jirachi and write your wishes on the notes on their forehead, they will make that wish come true.

    1. Oshawott

    The Pokémon Company / Via giphy.com

    Oshawott is just the cutest little sea otter in the whole world — the end.
