About
PokeLineups turns Pokémon into a fantasy sports roster. Pick which generations to draw from, fill a football, basketball, or baseball lineup, and share the card.
How it works
- Set your pool. Choose generations and toggle legendaries, mythicals, alternate forms, and fully evolved only.
- Fill the lineup. Tap a position to see the best fits for it, or let Auto-Draft or Random fill every open spot. Lock a slot to keep it while you re-roll the rest.
- Share it. The share button sends an image of your lineup plus a link that rebuilds it exactly. Nothing is stored on a server; the whole lineup lives in the link.
Position ratings
Every Pokémon gets a 50-99 rating at every position. Each formula blends base stats (plus height and weight, log-scaled so giants like Wailord don't flatten everyone else). The blended scores are ranked against all 1,244 Pokémon and forms, so a 99 is the best in the dataset and a 50 is the worst, like a sports video game rating curve.
Ratings are hidden by default and the picker lists Pokémon in Pokédex order. Turn on Show ratings in the filter bar to see each Pokémon's rating, sort the picker by best fit, and show your team OVR. Auto-Draft always uses ratings to find strong picks.
