Snuggling Those Pokemon

Bolthund

I think this one shows my bias towards my own furry creature that cuddles with me every night. While Yamper is arguably cuter, he also seems like a hyper asshole who would just lick your face for an hour then run away to go bark at the mailman.

Wooloo

According to its Pokedex entry in Sword, Wooloo’s wool is such a good cushion that even if it falls off a damn cliff, it will walk away unharmed. It’ll be like cuddling with the world’s fluffiest cloud.

Greedent

Greedent is just a chubby little fluff ball, so you know he’s soft and warm. Being a squirrel he’s probably a big fan of taking long naps which I’m always down for. Also, he keeps berries in his tail, so you know he’s always got bedtime snacks.

Nickit

Nickit is the closest Pokemon to a cat this generation, which is usually a good choice for a snuggle buddy. Nickit is probably one of those cuddlers that only snuggles up on their own terms, but when they do, it’s the best.

Hatterene

Hattrene looks like a body pillow with a big ol hat on, and if that doesn’t seem like a good snuggle partner, I don’t know what to tell you.

Grookey

Grookey reminds me of a toddler that loves to be loud and noisy, but when they wanna snuggle up they are going to cling to you and pass out for hours. It could also tap a pretty good lullaby with his stick

Cufant

Cufant would probably be a little too big to fit in your bed to snuggle, but cozying up with its trunk wrapped around you out in an open field? Now that sounds comforting.

Toxel

Toxel seems like a grumpy snuggler, kinda like an old grumpy pet but also looks like a baby. Just imagine a little Toxel snuggled up and snoring in your arms for a midday nap.

Honorable mention: Snom but I refuse to put them on this list just to spite Caitlin. I’m a real journalist.

Non-snuggable

All those Fossil abominations

I don’t want these fucking monstrosities anywhere near me. It’s like cuddling with some combination of electricity, ice, a scaly dragon, or a fish depending on which one you pick. GTFO with these things.

Stonjourner

It’s a giant rock monster that just stumbles around like a dingus. Similar to Carkoal, it’s going to make a huge mess with all its mud, but Stonjourner is also eight feet tall and weighs over a ton. Try fitting this bad boy in your bed.

Milcrey

You ever try cuddling with milk? Congrats, now you gotta wet bed

Carkol

Carkol is literally a pokemon made out of coal in the shape of a minecart. Because of his angles, there’s really no good way to snuggle him. I guess you could lay on top of him and hug his warm coals? Well then you’re covered in soot and that just screams “black lung”

Dreadnaw

This giant snapping turtle would be like cuddling a spiky rock that could rip your arm off with one bite. If you want to take that gamble, be my guest.

Cramorant

Cramorant looks like they never truly understand what’s happening around them. Trying to snuggle them would probably just result in them panicking and squawking until you let them go. So you get some hearing damage and no snuggles. 

Grimmsnarl

He’s buff, but all those muscles are actually just hair. Have you ever tried spooning someone who has a massive amount of hair? That’s essentially Grimmsnarl, but all over his weird ripped body. I guess that works for some people though.

Scorbunny

Scorbunny is the cutest pokemon on this part of the list by far, but I don’t want to snuggle him for one particular reason: I’m a warm sleeper. This dude just generates heat constantly, and while that might be nice in the winter, I’m not looking for a hyperactive heated blanket all the time. Also, he probably kicks in his sleep.
