Best Puma x Pokémon sneakers

83 ELO points separate Gengar from Bulbasaur at the top of the Pokémon ranking, after 721 duels.

Gengar claims the crown with 1295 ELO points and a 71% win rate across 31 duels, creating a commanding gap over second-place Bulbasaur at 1212 points. The ghost-type's dominance suggests fans of the Puma collaboration favor darker, edgier designs over the classic starter Pokémon that populate the rest of the podium. Charmander takes third at 1184 ELO, followed by Pikachu in fourth at 1165 and Squirtle rounding out the top 5 at 1158. The tight clustering below Gengar—just 54 points separate ranks 2 through 5—reveals a competitive middle tier where nostalgia battles itself. Pikachu's fourth-place finish surprises given its status as the franchise mascot, but the Puma x Pokémon collab clearly rewards bold aesthetic choices over brand recognition alone.

How this ranking is computed

Every duel won lifts a contender and every loss drops them, by an amount that depends on the opponent's strength: beating the leader is worth more than beating the last. It is an ELO, the same principle as in chess. Duels are not drawn at random — an adaptive entropy sort puts the least predictable match-ups first, which settles the ranking far faster than a full round robin. A worldwide ranking is only published past 30 completed plays. Known limit: a contender who has faced few opponents keeps an approximate score, and the bottom of the table moves more than the podium.
