Episode notes
Curators Spread Generations To Share The Love
- The panel observes listmakers avoid clustering too many favorites from one generation to spread representation across eras.
- Blessing predicts lists will include staples (Pikachu, Charizard, Gyarados) but also try to mix gens for balance.
Expect Listicle Playfulness Over Strict Criteria
- The hosts treat Polygon's top 100 as lighthearted and intentionally unserious, expecting trolling and contrarian placements.
- Charlotte Avery and others repeatedly call it a 'shit list' and brace for odd rankings like Arceus at 100.
Too Many Legendaries Dilute Legendary Status
- The hosts note that an abundance of legendary Pokémon dilutes perceived 'legendary' status, making some legendaries fall lower in rankings.
- They expect editors to prioritize a few standouts rather than rank every legendary highly.
