Pokémon

Buddy distance tiers

Niantic groups every species into one of four walking-distance tiers. Browse the species we've verified for each tier below — this list is curated and grows over time rather than claiming to cover all ~1,000+ species, since buddy distance isn't published in one authoritative list and has to be verified per species.
