Fun information about my list. I went and calculated average rankings by type for my list.

Fairy - 21.46
Ghost - 40.11
Psychic - 40.60
Grass - 40.93
Flying - 41.25
Steel - 43.44
Electric - 45.30
Ice - 46.00
Rock - 48.86
Ground - 49.83
Fighting - 51.00
Bug - 51.91
Normal - 57.07
Water - 60.38
Fire - 62.75
Dragon - 65.86
Poison - 66.43
Dark - 76.25

Fairy type is far ahead of the pack, even with Fairy types at 56 and 94 on my list. Water is also unusually low on my list despite 3 Water types in my top 10, except for the fact I also have 5 Water types in my bottom 10. Several other types are rather low on my list due to this generation having very few good Pokemon to represent those types.

I counted Oricorio as Fire/Electric/Ghost/Psychic/Flying, while Type: Null/Silvally was only counted as Normal.

Brayze easy MVP.

It wasn't easy coming up with write-ups for every single Pokemon. There was no specific order in which I did write-ups for Pokemon. If there were Pokemon that I couldn't come up with a write-up for, I would skip over them and come back to it at a later time hoping that I could think of something later on. Hell, I actually did a write-up for Primarina very late in the submission process when I had less than 20 Pokemon left to do write-ups for, and that was my number one Pokemon.

There were a very small handful of write-ups where I put in a half-assed attempt (like Dewpider/Araquanid for example) just for the sake of having write-ups for every Pokemon.

I agree completely.

There is a definite higher amount of games where there's literally nothing I can do to win, no matter how well I predict.

You're quite welcome! Happy to do it. It doesn't feel like a complete ranking to me unless I do a writeup for each one. Blank spaces on the Excel sheet bug me. OCD I guess.

Thanks for continuing to run these.

The next ranking project should be alternate forms only. Everything that didn't get an separate ranking in their own gen (individual Lycanroc, Oricorio, Castform, etc). Also stuff with visual differences like Unown and Gastrodon. Just throw every one of them in a giant list.

Maybe a Z-Move ranking project. I mean, we did rank Mega Evolutions (which was Gen VI's gimmick) and Z-Moves is the Gen VII gimmick. Although a Z-Move ranking project would have to be held off until after the release of Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon as I expect those games to introduce even more Z-Moves. We've currently got 29 Z-Moves and that could be pushed over 40 with the new games later this year.

Although I guess it'd be a little bit harder to rank Z-Moves since you'd have to consider both the move animation and the name itself (some Z-Moves have great names). Thanks to Youtube, it shouldn't be that difficult to find a video that shows off every single Z-Move animation in a single video.
