Round 4: The last match of the bottom left bracket is Cyndaquil vs. Phantump! Both Pokémon have strong records under the teeny tiny belts, as evidenced by their peak lil guy natures! Will Cyndaquil continue to defy the odds as the most popular starter in the running? Will Phantump's stump speeches win the day? You know what to do!

Press X to open up your Lil Guy Dex!

Here's the promised breakdown of all our Lil Guy Data:

Within Round 1:

We have 11 Pokémon from Gen 1, 9 from Gen 2, 10 from Gen 3, 11 from Gen 4, 6 from Gen 5, 4 from Gen 6, 4 from Gen 7, 11 from Gen 8, and 6 from Gen 9, so every generation is represented in the Lil Guy Pokémon poll!

As for type, we have 8 Normal type, 3 Fighting type, 4 Flying type, 8 Water type, 5 Fire type, 6 Rock type, 6 Electric type, 5 Ghost type, 7 Psychic type, 3 Dark type, 5 Bug type, 8 Poison type, 7 Ground type, 3 Fairy type, 5 Ice type, and 3 Dragon type!

The least? We've got just one steel type!

(It's this lil guy)

On the opposite end of the spectrum, we started out with a whopping 15 Grass types! Guess Grass has a Lil Guy subtyping!

Most of our lil guys are the first of their evolutionary line, with 22 being the first in a line of 3 and 43 being the first in a line of 2. Only 6 of our lil guys don't evolve at all, and just one lil guy is an evolved form!

(Coincidentally, Maushold also wins for the most lil guys in your lil guy.)

Our biggest lil guys by height are: Smeargle and both variations of Slowpoke, coming in at 47" or 1.2m. Since Slowpoke might be length, I think we can crown Smeargle as our tallest lil guy; I'm sure the crown will fit great on their hat.

The biggest lil guy by weight, by far, is of course our snacking friend, Munchlax, at 231.5lbs or 105kg. So if you ever need a friend to help you bench press, I'm sure Munchlax would be happy to help!

Our littlest of lil guys? When it comes to height, that would be Joltik and roaming form Gimmighoul, at a teeny-tiny 4" or 0.1m. Notably, we do have a lot of tiny lil guys, with Morelull, Applin, Wishiwashi, Shroodle, Natu, and Shaymin's land form all coming in just a smidge taller at 8" or 0.2m.

Roaming form Gimmighoul wins once again for smallest weight, coming in at 0.2lbs or 0.1kg. Our next smallest is our fishy friend, Wishiwashi at 0.7lbs or 0.3kg.

Within Round 2:

When it comes to generations in Round 2, we have a clear mode: 5! We have 5 Pokémon each from Gens 1-5, 3 from Gen 6, 4 from Gen 7, 3 from Gen 8, and just 2 from Gen 9!

As for types, we've knocked out Steel type entirely this round (sorry, Alolan Sandshrew!). Fighting, Dark, and Dragon types are all hanging in there with one Pokémon each- Riolu, Galarian Zigzagoon, and Goomy! Then we have 2 Flying; 3 each of Normal, Water, Ghost, Electric, Poison, Fairy, and Ice; 4 of Rock, Psychic, Bug, and Ground; and lastly Grass type's previous lead is now shared with Fire type, with 5 Pokémon each.

All but one of our Pokémon are now full of potential and waiting for evolution. The exception is Shuckle, who is just full of potential

(I mean, look at them.)

Our remaining lil guys are also even littler! Currently holding the title for tallest Pokémon in the competition are Snover and Kantonian Ponyta (whose Galarian counterpart is just a smidge smaller), both at 39" or 1m. As a tree, it should come as no surprise that Snover is the heaviest Pokemon in competition at 111.3lbs or 50.5kg.

With Gimmighoul out, Joltik is now the only 4"/0.1m Pokémon left in the running (but oh that 8 foot vertical leap, right?). It's also the smallest by weight at 1.3lbs or 0.6kg.

Thanks for reading, folks! We've got just over a day and half before Round 2 draws to a close, so if you haven't already, get voting and tell your friends! If you're anxiously trying to drum up support for your preferred lil guy, I'll happily reblog propaganda posts!
