not quite too old for this, apparently
approved by me because raseri wasnt on irc. stolen mostly shamelessly from lc.
We're gonna be ranking the cuteness of all the Pokemon in the NU metagame itc. As of right now I started with the Pokemon that are currently NU by usage. If you want to add a PU Pokemon that's listed on the NU Viability Rankings, go ahead and nominate it if it's at least C- Rank. Please don't fight in the thread because fighting is not cute. Also please don't post dumb shit, actually back up your rankings.
For more controversial cases, the viability ranking council will vote on the Pokemon's tiering.

Tier List
Without further ado, here is the initial tier list with the rough definitions of each tier (note: Pokemon are ordered alphabetically).
Seriously Cute RankReserved for Pokemon that are the cutest in the NU metagame. These Pokemon are undeniably cute, whether it is due to a quirky personality or because they are so damn squeezable. Pokemon in this tier have very few flaws that are patched up by numerous positive traits.
A-RankReserved for Pokemon that are outstandingly cute in the NU metagame and are derpier, cuddlier, and fluffier than most of the tier. These Pokemon are cuter than most other Pokemon and have few flaws that can be overlooked when compared to their outstanding traits.
B-RankReserved for Pokemon who are decently cute the NU metagame. These Pokemon have more notable flaws than of those above it that prevents them from being in the same tier. Their positive traits still outshine their negatives, but they aren't quite as cute or cuddly as you would like your Pokemon to be.
C-RankReserved for Pokemon that are about average, in terms of cuteness, in the NU metagame, but have just as notable flaws that prevent them from being adorable. Pokemon in the C tier often have some design flaws that make them appear less huggable than those in higher tiers. C tier Pokemon tend to be outshined by other pokemon in the tier.
Archeops
D-RankReserved for Pokemon that are not that cute in the NU metagame, but are decent enough to justify their existence. These Pokemon are Pokemon that you would probably still play with, but you'd rather be playing with something else.
Cradily
Crustle
Dragalge
Electivire
Ferroseed
Kabutops
Magmortar
Muk
Regirock
F-RankReserved for Pokemon that are atrocious in the NU metagame. These Pokemon have no place anywhere.
