Pokémon is one of the longest-running anime franchises, which has earned the formula of remaining relevant to the masses. The franchise has excelled in producing highly successful games, sequels, movies, and merchandise. However, the Pokémon anime will forever remain the fandom’s favorite medium for Ash Ketchum and Pikachu’s “catch ’em all” adventure.

The anime has featured hundreds of Pokémon, and although veteran fans consider Ash’s Pikachu to be the strongest of all, there are several Pokémon that have gone further. Although most of the strongest Pokémon haven’t made regular appearances in the series, these godlike figures have set the bar high.
10 Zekrom
Best Pokémon wishes
Zekrom is a powerful dragon-type Pokémon with electrical powers. Zekrom takes the appearance of a black humanoid dragon with fearsome wings, and an occasional burst of blue lightning usually heralds the Pokémon’s arrival. Zekro appeared several times in the anime, starting with the first episode of Pokémon: Best Wishes, where the wild creature eliminated Team Rocket in their attempt to steal Pikachu.

His attack was so powerful that it made Pikachu unable to use his abilities. Zekrom has Gen 5 legendary status, and is certainly the type of Pokémon that no one would want to run into. In addition to his rare appearances, Zekrom is also mentioned several times throughout the series.
9 Ho-Oh
Pokémon – I choose you!
Ho-Oh is the only legendary Pokémon that had the privilege of appearing in the first episode of the series Pokémon aired in 1997. Although the Pokémon appeared briefly, it was to signify that Ash was pure of heart, as it only appears to those who are.
As for Ho-Oh’s abilities, it is the only known Pokémon to possess the power of resurrection or restoration. This fire-type Pokémon can revive any Pokémon and even use a devastating fire attack called Holy Fire. Ho-Oh has a phoenix-like build, with a distinctive tail that leaves a scorching trail.
8 Lugia
Pokémon The Movie 2000
Known as the Master Trio of Legendary Birds, this powerful Pokémon is a Gen-II psychic-flying-type mythical creature with a massive dragon-like body. This legendary Pokémon first appeared in the second film of the anime franchise and, due to its overwhelming powers, prefers to stay in the depths of the ocean in solitude. Lugia is a force to be reckoned with, as with a single flap of his majestic wings he can create violent storms.
Although the guardian of the sea is a kind beast, he can unleash chaos against those who would harm the creatures of the sea with his devastating powers of sea control. Aside from his aquatic abilities, Lugia can also communicate telepathically with humans, establishing himself as an intelligent being like MewTwo.
Pokemon 4Ever
Celebi may not be as big as Lugia, but it is a Psychic Grass-type Mythical Pokémon with innate abilities on par with any other powerful Legendary Pokémon. This grass sprite-like Pokémon first appears in the fourth Pokémon movie, where it flees from a renowned Pokémon hunter who wants to enslave Celebi to do his bidding.
Celebi is the only Pokémon with time travel abilities, aside from the time deity. What Celebi lacks in strength, size, or offensive moves, it makes up for with its ability to not only travel to the past, present, and future, but also to take other people and Pokémon with it. This pixie-like Pokémon can also heal, power planting, and fly.
6 Rayquaza
Pokémon – Destiny Deoxys
Rayquaza is a fearsome dragon-type legendary Pokémon that belongs to the Weather Trio. It has a serpentine body with razor-sharp teeth and claws. His Mega form is even more aggressive than his natural form, and possesses immense control over speed and direction.
Since Rayquaza is one of the three masters of the Weather Legendaries, he resides in the atmosphere and is tasked with protecting the earth from atmospheric threats. The audience can imagine the enormous strength of this Pokémon from the fact that he single-handedly fought against his fellow masters, Kyogre and Groudon, without using his full strength.
5 Palkia y Dialga
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl
Palkia’s appearance resembles that of a powerful mecha dragon with celestial powers. The Trio of Creation is an ancient power consisting of Palkia, Dialga and Giratina. Both Palkia and Dialga are beings from the legend of Sinnoh created by the powerful Arceus. Palkia is the water dragon type Pokémon with the power to warp and distort space, in addition to being able to alter realities and travel to different dimensions.
Furthermore, Dialga is also a god-like being with control over time. His undeniable abilities allow Dialga to manipulate time, even freezing or altering it. Even with his destructive powers, Palkia and Dialgia never seem to see each other, and their confrontation once leveled an entire city.
4 Giratina
Pokémon: Giratina and the Sky Warrior
The last member of the Legendary Creation Trio, Giratina is a Pokémon of enormous size with chaotic abilities that surpass even those of Dialga and Palkia. Giratina lives in the Distortion World, an alternative dimension to the real world. This gigantic ghost dragon-type Pokémon possesses unfathomable abilities that have an affinity for causing destruction.
This is precisely the reason why Giratina was banished to the Distortion World, due to her uncontrollable rage. Although Giratina mainly deals with her own affairs, she can go all out on anyone who disturbs her peace, such as Dialga and Palkia, who had to face her wrath during her conflict.
3 Mew
Pokémon: the first movie
Mew’s playful and adorable appearance may fool audiences, but it is undoubtedly one of the most powerful Pokémon in the franchise. The fact that Mew’s feline body contains the DNA of every Pokémon that has ever existed is enough to establish its powerful reputation. This allows this psychic-type legendary Pokémon to adopt the moves of any Pokémon.
It was believed to be extinct until Mew first appeared before Ash and was considered the rarest Pokémon of all. Mew is not aggressive at all and rarely goes on the offensive, unlike many other powerful legendary Pokémon that have an overwhelming aura. It looks more like a child than one of the most powerful Pokémon and, furthermore, it only appears to the pure of heart like Ash.
2 Mewtwo
Pokémon: the first movie
Mewtwo is a Pokémon created by man from the DNA strand of the original Mew. It is considered one of the most famous and powerful Pokémon in anime for its enhanced mind control, telekinesis, and teleportation abilities.
This top-tier Pokémon has destructible powers, and due to the nature of the experiments it underwent, Mewtwo became ferocious, which only raised its power level. This psychic-type Pokémon can be considered an improved version of Mew, with greater intelligence and combat instincts. Mewtwo has also shown on several occasions that he has extreme physical endurance and an impressive ability to adapt.
1 Arceus
Pokémon: Arceus and the Jewel of Life
Arceus is at the top of the power pyramid and is considered the closest thing to a god for Pokémon. This celestial creature has a multitude of abilities that transcend any Pokémon, even the legendary ones. When Arceus was born, he brought with him antimatter, time and space, thus creating the Trio of Creation. He is considered one of the oldest Pokémon and the one who created the Sinnoh/Ransei Regions.
Like most god-type Pokémon, it can use telepathy to communicate and has innate strength that surpasses all. Arceus also has power and control over legendary Pokémon and can be considered a being that stands at the center of the Pokémon universe.
