Due to popular demand, I will be running Board 8 Ranks the Gen 8 Pokemon (to be clear, the demand wasn't for me to host this--nobody wants that--but the previous host is a coward and fraud and somebody needs to step up). This is a time-honored tradition of the board, and I hope everybody that participates gives this the respect and gravitas it deserves.

Please submit your rankings to [email protected] by December 20th, 2018

Generation VIII Pokemon:
Meltan
Melmetal

Have fun.

Meltan and Melmetal are (sort of) part of Gen 7...

But yeah, I get the joke.

Meltan and Melmetal aren't considered Gen 8 Pokemon. Serebii thinks that Meltan will be considered part of Gen 7 instead of Gen 8 and he provides the following posts to prove his point:

If we are going to run another Pokemon ranking project, I think we should run another Gen 7 ranking project to rank the following Pokemon - Poipole, Naganadel, Stakataka, Blacephalon, Zeraora, Meltan, and Melmetal.

The re-run of the Gen 7 ranking project should include all Pokemon from Gen 7 (including Alolan Forms), but it would include the Gen 7 Pokemon that were introduced after Steiner ran his project.

Can I rank them some sort of extreme off the chart negative that guarantees them last place of all time?

Re-doing the Gen 7 ranking project with the 7 new Pokemon introduced after the original Gen 7 ranking project would have the issue of meta voting. Those who didn't participate in the original project could vote in a way that might change the overall winner. For those who did participate in the original project, they could make significant changes to their list to sabotage certain Pokemon that finished higher than they expected.

At least re-doing Gen 7 means we could get more people who didn't participate in the original project because they didn't play any of the Gen 7 games at the time of the original project.

The re-run of the Gen 7 ranking project

tbh I thought this topic was going to be making fun of Luster for demanding a gen 7 ranking rerun last time
