Pokemon Tier List: S Tier
S-Tier
Yes, we know this may be an obvious choice for the S tier of our rankings; however, it makes the most sense after all.
The nine starter Pokemon from the first three regions of the Pokemon games; Kanto, Johto and Hoenn are viewed as the best in the entire Pokemon series and for good reason.
The three typings they all vary from are; water, fire and grass and they all have unique moves that would be beneficial in certain scenarios.
Whenever you see someone's Mystery Dungeon team, they typically have one of these starter Pokemon in there; so it is the safest bet you can place while playing this game!
Formidable Choices: A Tier
Moving away from the starter Pokemon and the S tier, this next tier of Pokemon are strong enough to help your team through most of the dungeons and will serve you well. Most of these Pokemon are looked at as strong Pokemon in the actual Pokemon games so do not be surprised with our list!
Formidable Choices: A Tier
A-Tier
If you are looking for a Pokemon to use with a different typing than the starter Pokemon, these are for sure the best ones to look at in Mystery Dungeon.
Remaining Bunch: B Tier
The final Pokemon are ones that you should not choose if you are looking to dominate all of the dungeons in Mystery Dungeon. Although they are good Pokemon in their own regards, they do not stack up compared to the other Pokemon on our list.
