Drag a starter card into a tier, or choose its destination directly below the cover. Leave games you have not played unranked. Use “Add more games” for other releases.

2. Rank your games

Only ranked games appear in the PNG. Your uploads stay in this browser.

38 separate editions, ready to sort. This starter selection runs from Red and Blue to Legends: Z-A (2025). It includes remakes, Scarlet and Violet, and Legends: Arceus; it is not every Pokémon release. Add other games with search or a manual title.

Each card shows the edition, platform and first English-release year. Cards include the cover for each edition. To replace a cover with your own permitted image, open the card’s “Edit / move” options.

Your list starts unranked. Put games you have played into S–D; leave games you have not played in the pool. Rename any tier to make your own scale.

How to make your Pokémon game tier list

Start with the game covers in the editor above. This walkthrough uses Red and Emerald only to demonstrate the controls; the placements are an example, not a recommendation or community score.

  1. Choose the editions you have played

    Use “Filter unranked games” to find a title, year or platform. Red and Blue have separate covers, as do originals and remakes. Leave games you have not played in the pool.

  2. Drag a cover, or choose a row below it

    Drag the cover into S–D. For the same action without dragging, choose the destination directly below the cover. Rename the rows to match your own scale.

  3. Download and attach the finished PNG

    Once a game is in a tier, “Download PNG” becomes available. Only ranked games appear in the image. Use “Share tier list” to choose an app, then attach the PNG when needed.

Is Legends: Z-A included? Can I add spin-offs?

Legends: Z-A is included with its cover in the 38-game starter pool. If you have an older saved draft, use “Restore missing starter games” to add missing cards without overwriting your ranking. The starter pool is not every Pokémon release: use “Add more games” for spin-offs or other titles. Check the version before adding it; you can also enter a title manually and upload an image you may use.

Your taste, in three steps

Add games, move them into tiers, then export. Your title and labels are yours to change; there are no official scores.

Questions about personal game tier lists

Can I change the number and names of tiers?

Yes. Add or remove empty tiers, change their order and colors, and edit every label. The ranking expresses your own preferences.

Rank the Pokémon games you actually played

This Pokémon game tier list maker compares your experiences with the games. It does not rank individual Pokémon, competitive teams or trading cards. Start by deciding what you want to compare: your first playthrough, replay value, or your overall enjoyment.

Keep originals, remakes and sequels separate

Gold and HeartGold are different cards, as are Diamond and Brilliant Diamond. Black 2 is a sequel, not an alternative name for Black. The pool also separates paired editions, so you can rank only the version you played. Remove the other edition using its card controls if you do not need it.

“Not played” is not the lowest tier

Leave an unfamiliar game in the unranked pool. Only games you place into a tier appear in your PNG. You can place multiple games in one row as a tie, or explain in your caption that left-to-right order matters. Our sample labels are a starting point, not a published consensus or official score.

Make it your own and share the result

Change the title, rename S–D, add or remove empty rows, and upload covers you have permission to use. On a phone, use each card’s destination menu if dragging is awkward. Download your PNG, then attach it in the social app you choose. The link opens this template; it does not restore your private board.

What is included?

The 38-card starter selection covers selected English editions through Legends: Z-A (2025). Z-A uses one card for the Switch game and its enhanced Switch 2 edition; it is not a pair of different Pokémon versions. DLC and spin-offs such as Pokémon GO and New Pokémon Snap are not preloaded. Add anything missing with the search box or a manual title. Years refer to the first English release and may differ from Japanese and European launch dates.

Already have a saved board? Use “Restore missing starter games” to add missing starter cards, including Z-A, without replacing your title, tiers or existing placements.
