Tumblr Reveals 30 Most Talked About Pokemon of 2019

The end of the year means it’s time to think back on what things left their mark during the last twelve months. For Tumblr, this means compiling lists of the most talked about items for various categories. Tumblr covers a lot of different categories for their year end wrap-ups, including gaming. Topics are tracked based on their volume, meaning both positive and negative discourse on a topic is counted the same.

This year, Tumblr added a new category in the form of much beloved pocket monsters. That’s right, there is now an official list of what Pokemon are the most talked about on Tumblr. Hilariously, this list was started because of the internet’s love for a certain round and fluffy Wooloo. Amanda Brennan, head of content insights at Tumblr, says that seeing “Tumblr’s response to these new Pokemon [Sword & Shield] and the immediate “Wooloo is our baby vibe” ” resulted in them deciding to start this list.

So without further ado, let’s take a look at what Pokemon came out on top this year.

1. Pikachu
2. Wooloo
3. Sobble
4. Bulbasaur
5. Scorbunny
6. Grookey
7. Eevee
8. Squirtle
9. Mewtwo
10. Charmander
11. Meowth
12. Charizard
13. Vaporeon
14. Gengar
15. Yamper
16. Umbreon
17. Sylveon
18. Incineroar
19. Espeon
20. Flareon
21. Mew
22. Corviknight
23. Psyduck
24. Jigglypuff
25. Snorlax
26. Lucario
27. Jolteon
28. Vulpix
29. Rowlet
30. Leafeon

Unsurprisingly, Pikachu remains the face of Pokemon in the number one spot. It is also not surprising to see fan favorite Eevee and many of its evolutions make the top thirty. Many of the remaining Pokemon on this list are either fan favorites from Pokemon Sword & Shield or were Pokemon shown in Detective Pikachu. It seems that Pikachu may want to watch out, because a certain round sheep may soon take the #1 spot.
