Ultimate Favorite Pokemon Picker | All 1,025 Pokemon, Gen 1-9
Build Your Dream Roster From All 1,025 Pokemon
Picking a handful of favorites out of 1,025 Pokemon is harder than it sounds. You start with Charizard because, well, it's Charizard. Then you remember Gengar carried your first Nuzlocke run. Then you scroll past a Galarian form you forgot even existed, and the whole list falls apart again. This Ultimate Favorite Pokemon Picker exists for exactly that moment, when you know you love a hundred Pokemon but need to somehow narrow it down to the ones that actually matter to you.
No spreadsheets. No fifty browser tabs open at once. No losing an hour of picks because you accidentally closed the wrong window. It works just as well from your phone on the couch as it does on a desktop at 2am when you suddenly remember you forgot to add Lucario.
What Is the Ultimate Favorite Pokemon Picker
The Ultimate Favorite Pokemon Picker is a free online tool that lets you build a visual grid of your favorite Pokemon, pulling from all nine generations and every regional form, Mega Evolution, and Paradox Pokemon released so far. Instead of typing out a list or ranking things in your head, you actually see your picks laid out as a grid, the same way a "my top Pokemon" image would look if someone spent an hour in Photoshop making it.
It works for six picks. It works for a hundred. Some people use it for a tight top 6 dream team post, others build out a full top 100 because they want every generation represented somewhere.
How the Favorite Pokemon Picker Works
Getting your grid built takes a couple of minutes, not an evening.
- Tap an empty slot to open the search box.
- Type a name, or use the filters by generation or type, whichever is faster for what you're trying to build.
- Click the Pokemon you want. It drops straight into the grid.
- Want the shiny version instead? One click swaps it over, for any Pokemon that actually has a shiny form.
- Stuck on what to fill an empty slot with? Hit the Poke Ball icon and it picks something for you. You can always swap it out afterward if it's a bad fit.
- Once you're happy with it, download the grid as a PNG, ready to post wherever you want.
Everything you pick stays saved in your browser automatically, so closing the tab by accident does not wipe out twenty minutes of careful decisions. There is no account to create and nothing gets sent off to a server anywhere. It just sits on your own device until you clear it yourself.
Key Features of This Pokemon Favorite Picker Tool
- All 1,025 Pokemon, Kanto through Paldea. Every generation is in here, along with Mega Evolutions, Alolan and Galarian forms, Paldean variants, Ultra Beasts, and Paradox Pokemon.
- Filter by type or generation. If you already know you want an all Fire team, or you're only picking from Gen 3, the filters at the top do exactly that instead of making you scroll past 900 Pokemon you have zero interest in.
- Shiny swap in one click. Shiny hunters tend to build their entire grid in shiny form, since flipping a slot over takes one click instead of a separate search.
- No lag, even on a big grid. A lot of older favorite Pokemon picker tools start crawling once you go past a couple dozen entries. This one was built to handle a full top 100 without choking.
- Auto-fill for empty slots. The Poke Ball icon fills whatever's left blank, useful when you've got 80 picks locked in and genuinely cannot decide on the last few.
- PNG export that actually looks clean. No blurry screenshot, no cropped edges. What you download is what you built.
- Works on mobile. Built to actually function properly on a phone screen, not just technically load.
Why This Is the Best Favorite Pokemon Picker Online
Most of the older favorite Pokemon picker tools floating around online were built years ago and haven't really been touched since. They lag once you add more than a couple dozen entries, the sprites are low resolution, and a lot of them lose your whole grid the moment you accidentally refresh the page.
That's really the whole reason this one exists. Not some big mission statement, just a tool that didn't annoy us while we were building our own lists, and one that didn't fall apart the second we tried to fill out all 1,025 Pokemon instead of stopping at a hundred.

Ways People Actually Use the Ultimate Favorite Pokemon Picker
Some people build a tight top 6 for a dream team post. Others go all the way to a top 100 because they want every generation represented somewhere in there. We've seen people rank starters only, put together an all Eeveelution lineup, or, if they're feeling a bit petty that day, build a "least favorite" grid just to roast their own picks in a group chat.
A surprising number of people use it for the opposite of nostalgia too, picking out the Pokemon they actively cannot stand, purely to start an argument with friends over it.
Shiny hunters, as mentioned, tend to build their whole grid in shiny form since swapping each one over is just a click. And there's a decent chunk of competitive players who use the grid to sanity check type coverage before committing to a real team composition. It wasn't built specifically for that. It just happens to work fine for it too.
Filtering by Type or Generation
If you already know exactly what you're building toward, an all Water team, a Gen 5 only lineup, whatever it is, the filters at the top of the picker do exactly that. Fire, Water, Grass, all eighteen types are filterable, and so is every one of the nine generations individually. You don't have to hunt through hundreds of Pokemon you don't care about to find the fifteen you actually do.
Generations and Forms Covered
All nine generations are in here, Kanto through Paldea, 1,025 Pokemon in total. That includes Mega Evolutions, Alolan and Galarian forms, Paldean variants, and the usual extras like Ultra Beasts and Paradox Pokemon. If Game Freak announces a Gen 10 down the line, it gets added here once it's actually out, not before.
Tips for Building a Better Favorite Pokemon Grid
- Start with your obvious top 5 first, the ones you'd defend in an argument without thinking. Everything else gets easier to slot in once those anchors are down.
- Use the generation filter if you're stuck, going one generation at a time stops the full list of 1,025 from feeling overwhelming.
- If you're building a big grid like a top 100, save your progress every so often by exporting a PNG copy, just in case you ever clear your browser data by accident.
- Try building a themed grid once you've done a straightforward favorites list, an all Eeveelution team or a starters only grid is a fun way to use the tool differently.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an account to use the Favorite Pokemon Picker?
No. Everything you pick saves locally in your own browser, there's no signup or login involved anywhere.
Can I filter by type in the Pokemon Picker?
Yes. Fire, Water, Grass, all eighteen types are filterable from the top bar, alongside filtering by generation.
Does the Ultimate Favorite Pokemon Picker work on phone?
Yes, it's built to work properly on mobile, not just load in a shrunken desktop layout.
What happens if my browser crashes or I clear my cache?
Since your grid lives in local storage on your device, clearing your browser data will wipe it. Download a PNG copy first if you want a backup that survives that.
Can I export or share my finished Pokemon list?
Yes, there's a download button that generates a clean PNG of your full grid, ready to post on Reddit, Discord, X, or wherever else you want to share it.
Is this picker updated when new Pokemon are released?
Yes, once a new generation is officially out, it gets added to the picker so your grid stays current.
Share Your Grid
Once your grid is done, download it as a PNG and post it wherever you want, Reddit, Discord, X, it doesn't really matter. Or just share the live link directly if you'd rather people see the actual grid instead of a static image. Tag a friend and see what they'd pick differently. That's usually where the real argument starts.
