Qualitative analysis on the anthropomorphism of every fully-evolved Starter



(For the purposes of the ranking, anthropomorphism will be based on anatomy, proportions, mannerisms, roles as well as how much is the human-shape of the mon masked. Primates get their own tier for obvious reasons)

There are 6 categories going from S (fully anthropomorphic) to F (not anthropomorphic), each mon is ordered within their own rank.

S rank – Basically a dude

Cinderace – Soccer player bunny, plantigrade, human proportions, human anatomy in a bunny fursuit, flat faced, wears fur clothes. Doesn't get more human than that.

Incineroar – Heel cat, plantigrade, body of a muscular man, just a guy with a tiger tail and tiger head.

Quaquaval – Long legs, small body, wing arms, human movements, just a gay man in a not-so convincing duck disguise.

Meowscarada – Digitigrade but fully human proportions, defined neck, waist and hips, looks like a woman or Joker from Persona 5.

Inteleon – Extremely slender body, long tail, kind of uncanny for a man, but still, just a man. Also FULLY HUMAN hands, doubly uncanny.

Delphox – Digitigrade, short legs although the fur dress hides those animalistic features, giving it too much of a human shape, would go in A without the dress.

A rank – Basically a dude, with a better cosplay

Blaziken – Strange appearance, masks its human proportions and anatomy quite well, more monster than either man or bird.

Greninja – Similar case to Blaziken, its amphibian features and pose mask its human shape

B rank – Primate

Rillaboom – Being a gorilla, it's de facto anthropomorphic, it having a role humanizes it a little bit more.

Infernape – Monkey King

C rank – Edge of anthropomorphism

Chesnaught – Almost human proportions, very bulky although it's mostly armor, misses A rank by a molecule

Decidueye – Anatomically a bird, but the pose, hood and movements make it pass as a humanoid until you look very carefully (outing the owl)

Sceptile – Upright pose, but digitigrade and stubby legs, bottom heavy

Primarina – Seal, but passes as a mermaid

D rank – Bipedal beast

Emboar – Upright, albeit too bulky and stubby to be confused for a human

Empoleon – Penguins are naturally bipedal, fur clothes can pass as markings

Feraligatr – Bulky bipedal croc, big tail

Charizard – Bipedal dragon, long neck

Blastoise – Basically just a tortoise attempting to walk on two feet

Typholosion – If a real life honey badger stood up

F rank – Beast

Swampert – Can stand on two legs if it wants to

Samurott – Can stand on two legs if it wants to

Serperior – Slithery snake

Skeledirge – Croc that pays rent

Meganium – Dino lady

Venusaur – Dino frog

Torterra – Dino tortoise
