Starting May 1st, 2026, we will run a poll requesting fans to vote for their favourite First Partner Pokémon (starter). Each day, fans will have 12 hours to vote, and the Pokémon with the fewest votes will be eliminated from the next round of the contest.
• You may cast one vote per day
• Voting aims to start at 16:00 GMT and ends at 04:00 GMT the following day
• If the poll is late to start, the poll will end later, ensuring 12 hours have passed
• In the event of a tie, all Pokémon in the lowest positions will be eliminated. In the rare case that the final two Pokémon are tied, we will re-run the poll until a clear winner is decided
• The winner will be announced on our Bluesky account each day
• Full results will be shared in a future newsletter on our website
• Share this poll with your friends and help us spread the word!
Feel free to discuss the poll below, but please keep it respectful
