Pokemon has been a part of our lives for an entire generation, and many adults who grew up watching it are now seeing their own children following the storyline they once loved. Over the years, nearly 900 Pokémon have been added to the roster, compared to a measly 151 in the original series. Naturally, this begs the question of which ones are more important.
