With designs varying from animals to mythical creatures to household objects, Pokemon come in all shapes and sizes. While som♑e are almost too tiny to see, others are too large to𝐆 miss. With the addition of the Dynamax mechanic, there are tons of towering Pokemon.

Dynamaxing aside, it would be interesting to see which of the Pokemon are the tallest. Some obvious contenders may take the form of strong, lengthy Legendaries, serpentines, aquatic beasts, or even palm trees. But only the tallest of the tall will be able to stand a🍃bo🤡ve the rest.

Updated January 11, 2023 by Jacqueline Zalace: With the release of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, we have a whole new generation of Pokemon to measure. We've updated this list with new Pokemon that stand tall enough.

20 Stakataka (18'01")

This Rock/Steel behemoth quite literally towers over most in its wake with a massive body made of stacked stones. This Ultra Beast from gen seven is technically comprised of various living stone lifeforms which are compiled together to form ⛎a single entity.

As you might expect, this rock-monstrosity is also one of the heaviest in the franchise, weighing in at 1807 lbs, making it the heaviest of the already weighty Rock-type. Still, its height shouldn't be looked down on either, as the beast stands at over 18 feet.

19 Yveltal (19'00")

This Dark🔜/Flying monster is made all the more ominous with its large stature and extended length, which stands at an even 19 feet. Initially the cover figure of Pokemon Y, Yveltal has remained a popular (and typically elusive) find for fans with its sheer power and awesome appearance.

This monster also has the powers to back up its threatening look, as it holds the power to absorb life essence itself by merely spreading its wings and tail feathers. Those in its vicinity dare not disturb Yveltal while sleeping and recoveri🌳ng, as it will be determined to seek vengeance.

18 Milotic (20'04")

This elegant Water-type is one of the lar🐼ger Pokemon to grace the seas, standing out with its vibrant appearance and jutting pink antennae. Originating from generation three, this unique creature can now (following gen five) be evolved from a Feebas when traded while holding a Prism Scale.

You might not get a sense of how tall this Pokemon is with its slithery, serpentine form and its tendency to zip through the seas. Yet, it's one of the lengthiest creatures in the game, especially compared to other default forms, measuring 20'04".

17 Palkia Origin Forme (20'08")

As described in the Legends rendition of the Pokedex, this Pokemon is "feared as a deity in Hisuian legend." According to mythology, Palkia's birth led to the "collapse of the walls of our world, creating a sky that spans for infinity." Given the legendary background of this apparent Poke-deity, it's no surprise that Palkia stands as one of the tallest creatures.

While the height of this Water/Dragon is 13'09", it extends to a towering 20'08" in its Origin Forme. This is complemented by its visual evolution which resembles Arceus, as Palkia takes on an intimidating form resembling a centaur-dragon.

16 Hoopa Unbound (21'04")

Hoopa Unbound prepares to use a Shadow Ball in the Pokemon anime.

Hoopa is a dual-type Psychic/Ghost 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Mythical Pokemon that was introduced in generation six. Though it does not evolve 🌟into any other Pokemon, it does have more than one form.

In its confined form, Hoopa is quite small and rather adorable, measuring only 1'08" high. However, in its unbound form, Hoopa is much larger and stands at 21'04" tall. Its form can be changed by using the Prison Bottle item, though Hoopa Unbound will revert back to its confined form after three days.

15 Gyarados And Mega Gyarados (21'04")

Gyarados is the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:evolved version of Magikarp and was one of the original 151 Pokemon from the Kanto region. It is best known for being one of Misty's Pokemon in the animated series.

Though it received a Mega Evolution with the release of Pokemon X and Y, Gyarados remains the same size in both its normal and Mega forms, standing at 21'04" tall. Despite not getting a Mega size increase, Gyarados is still one of the tallest Pokemon in the series.

14 Giratina Origin Forme (22'08")

Giratina is a Ghost/Dragon Legendary Pokemon that debuted in Pokemon Diamond & Pearl and was also the cover mascot of Pokemon Platinum. While Giratina does not evolve into any other Pokemon, it does have mor💯e than one form.

In its Altered Forme (which is its base form), Giratina is only 14'09"; however, in its Origin Forme, it grows to 22'08". Giratina changes form when it is holding a Griseous Orb, or when it is in its homeworld, the Distortion World.

13 Rayquaza (23'00")

Rayquaza is a dual-type Dragon/Flying Legendary Pokemon that was introduced with the release of Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire. This serpentine Pokemon is among the tallest Pokemon in the series with a height of 23'00".

Even though it's incredibly large, Rayquaza is not often seen by the people within the Pokemon universe as it is said to fly so high above the clouds that it cannot be perceived from the ground. Though it does not evolve into any other forms, Rayquaza can Mega Evolve, which makes it even larger than its normal form.

12 Ultra Necrozma (24'07")

Necrozꦑma is an interesting Legendary Pokemon that has the ability to📖 fuse with either Solgaleo or Lunala and then utilize Ultra Burst, which is a transformation similar to Mega Evolution.

On its own, Necrozma is only 7'10", but after Ultra Bursting and becoming Ultra Necrozma it grows to be over three times its original length at 24'07". Surprisingly, it remains the same exact weight as its original form.

11 Wishiwashi (26'11")

Wishiwashi is a unique with two drastically d✱ifferent forms in battle. Its solo form 🐻is exceptionally tiny, while its school form is so massive that even Gyarados fears it.

After activating its signature ability, Schooling, Wishiwashi goes from a single small fry to a whole school that forms a gigantic 26'11" long beast of the sea. If anyone ever thought that Wishiwashi was a pushover, they were sadly mistaken.
