Fan vote: community favourites, an opinion poll rather than a fact

Best Legendary

Legendary Pokémon are rare and powerful, and many of them are on the box of their game. Most of round 1 is the famous pairs that share a game: Lugia and Ho-Oh, Kyogre and Groudon, and more.

Mythical Pokémon such as Mew and Arceus are a separate group in the games, so they are not in this bracket.

Tap the Pokémon you think is best in each match. The winner goes through to the next round until one champion is left. Then compare your bracket with everyone’s. The live vote totals load in the interactive page.

How the fan vote works

• This is a vote about favourites, not a fact. For facts, see the lists by the numbers.
• Votes are anonymous. There is no account and no name, only a count for each Pokémon.
• Each match can get one vote a day from your home or school network.
