Bye Week Power Rankings: Pokemon Starters
Photo Illustration by Pavlo Gonchar/SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty ImagesIt’s a really good time to be a Pokemon fan right now! Pokemon Go is as good as it’s ever been. Pokemon Unite is a thing now. In addition to all that, there are two new games that are coming out in the next few months! The excitement begins next month with the release of remakes from Generation 4: Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. And then in January, we are getting a brand new type of Pokemon game. It will be an open-world adventure known as Pokemon Legends: Arceus. I’m super excited, so I’m celebrating by power ranking each of the starters from all of the mainline Pokemon games. For the purposes of this article, that means I’m not including Pokemon Coliseum or XD: Gale of Darkness.
