You can now vote your most favorite pokémon with Google, and people are loving it.
Several things in the pokémon world have been debated as long as we can remember, such as which creature is, in fact, the best. Pikachu is the series mascot, but Slowpoke has a real banger of a theme song. Eevee got a starring role in Pokémon: Let’s Go. Pokémon Sword exclusively introduced leek-wielding, sparkling-eyed Sirfetch’d. As Pokémon’s world of monsters has ballooned to nearly 1,000, it’s never been harder to pick your favorite.
But right now, via Google, it’s at least easy to vote.
You can choose from eight different regions to vote your favorite pokémon with Google:
- Kanto
- Hoenn
- Unova, Unys, Unima, Einall, Teselia
- Alola
- Johto
- Sinnoh
- Kalos
- Galar etc.
The Pokémon Company International collaborated with Google to hold a Pokémon of the Year poll. You can choose your favorite, by region, by searching for “Pokemon vote” on Google. The poll runs until 8:59 AM ET on February 14th. You only get one vote per category, but you can weigh in once a day.
