    that in terms of human companionship, Flareon is objectively the most huggable Pokemon? While their maximum temperature is likely too much for most, they are capable of controlling it, so they can set themselves to the perfect temperature for you. Along with that, they have a lot of fluff, making them undeniably incredibly soft to touch. But that's not all, they have a very respectable special defense stat of 110, which means that they are likely very calm and resistant to emotional damage. Because of this, if you have a bad day, you can vent to it while hugging it, and it won't mind. It can make itself even more endearing with moves like Charm and Baby Doll Eyes, ensuring that you never have a prolonged bout of depression ever again.

    My secret to remember then is to have children.

    Yes, but after naming my first child Bulbasaur and my second one Venusaur, I'm not sure I can sire enough children to fill in the first 150, let alone the full roster...

    I still have an easier time remembering all the original pokemon than I do the periodic table of elements.

    I noticed while making this list that Lickitung was incorrectly spelled "LIKITUNG" on the third day.

    Edit: Also, for Nidoran♂ vs Nidoran♀ you have to look at the picture to distinguish since they just say "Nidoran" but they do say it twice!

    That's pretty good! But... that's only 147. :-)

    Nidoran♀, and Nidoran♂ are separate and you're missing Nidorina, Nidoqueen, and also Rhydon.

    Some other corrections:

    • Pigeotto -> Pidgeotto
    • Ninetails -> Ninetales
    • Diglit -> Diglett
    • Primape -> Primeape
    • Duouo -> Doduo
    • Cloysyer -> Cloyster
    • Ghastly -> Gastly
    • Electrabuzz -> Electabuzz
    • Gyrados -> Gyarados
    • Omantyte -> Omanyte
    • Arodactyl -> Aerodactyl

    (Yes, I looked it up. No, I have no life. :p)

    Cheers!

    i can remember all of them from when i was a kid, but that number has since tripled. if i was a kid now i don't think i would be able to learn all of them in the first place!

    Triple isn't that bad. I knew 151 and then the main ones from the next few games (and didn't learn all the names, I don't remember any of the middle evolutions) but there are 1025 now

    If I need to say the names of the pokemons I'll forget something like Tangela, but if I see the image of the pokémon I can remember the name. Things get fuzzy at the same time that I stop watching the anime.

    It's the companys fault for looking at the 151 and saying, what if we replaced all this with random bullshit? I miss the og pokemon. I tried playing newer games but damn, it's pure chaos.

    ah yes
    the original 151
    with such treasures of creative genius as purple rat
    another rat
    and my personal favorite
    some eggs

    Even Ash couldn't pass the identification test and he still managed to become a master.

    Don't worry trainer, you can always get back together in a big ol' group of all your friends and between everyone we'll be able to figure out all their names. :)

    I get fuzzy on anything after Black/White. Hisuian and Alolan regionals would probably be my saving grace after that, I never found the will to finish Sword and have had 0 interest in Scarlet/Violet.
