Pokémon Go Pokémon Rarity – From Common to Legendary (With Pictures)

July 11, 2016







Pokémon GO has a total of 151 Pokémon available for collection. These range from common to legendary, which vary in availability depending on the climate and geography of your surroundings. For example, you will most easily find Magikarp and other water-based Pokémon at the beach, while Sandshrew is found in desert type environments. Though, there is a bit of luck involved as the game calculates a random assortment of Pokémon that can appear in your area at any given time, along with percentage chance of you encountering them.





We have used a variety of data to come up with a rarity tier list for Pokémon GO. First, we compiled the collections of 11 users living across the United States, from San Diego to New York, to come up with rarity averages. Each of these users have among the most extensive collections in the world, containing several Epics. We then compared this data against two other popular lists to reaffirm rarities. Below are the results along with images of several Pokémon directly from the game files
