Sources and methodology

Core Pokédex facts, measurements, abilities, species color, shape, Egg Groups, and artwork are retrieved from PokéAPI and refreshed daily. DraftCenter community statistics are anonymous aggregates calculated from eligible DraftCenter leagues.

Draft rate and ADP include eligibility and show their current sample sizes. Auction averages use completed auction samples, while team win rate uses confirmed match results. Small samples should be treated as early evidence, not a definitive ranking.
