Posted by Lynna Burgamy on Sunday, March 5, 2023

Pokemon has been a part of our lives for a full generation, and many adults that grew up watching it now see their own kids following along with the storyline they used to love. Over the years there have been almost 900 Pokemon added to the list, up from a meager 151 in the original series. Naturally, this brings about the question of which ones are the biggest.
