But, while they can be strange and all-powerful, Pokémon are still your best friends. They’re your loyal companions who remain by your side with unconditional love and companionship. Plus they’re all so cute and cuddly. And so, when you feel down, which Pokémon can you trust to lift you up with a nice hug? Here are the best options for any trainers.
Snorlax are less huggers and more so giant beds. These big lugs aren’t likely to hug you as they spend all of their time sleeping, and any time awake is going to be spent looking for food instead of hugging, but they can be found fast asleep with their fluffy and soft selves open for cuddles.
They are a bit of a dangerous bed to rest on, though, because if anyone manages to wake them up, they’re said to be incredibly aggressive. But, children are said to play on Snorlax without waking them up, so it’s probably nothing to worry about. Just be careful not to play the PokeFlute, and you can share a fine nap.
Although not as memorable as some others, Greedent are just as cute and cuddly as any other Pokémon. These chubby squirrels are covered in extra fluffy fur. Just from a single glance, you can see how cuddly these little guys are.
Plus, it’s said that Greedent stores plenty of berries in their tails, so there’s a snack dispenser every time you hug. The only downside is that Greedent are a bit slow and not explicitly friendly. But, with the right one, you can get plenty of fine hugs.
It’s pretty clear how cuddly and lovely Sylveon are. The first of the fairy types, Sylveon are creatures of pure happiness and joy, said to emit a soothing aura to those around them. Not to mention they’re also incredibly kind and friendly.

Aside from that kind nature, Sylveon can make you immediately feel calm and relaxed by hugging with their ribbons. The only downside to Sylveon is that they’re the size of a smaller dog, so hugs may be awkward – especially with their shape. But, they’re still a loving companion willing to hug in their own unique way!
Pangoro may be a bit riskier to get close to, but if you can manage to get on their good side, you have a wonderful hug. These large creatures speaks for themselves, covered in fluffy panda fur and with strong arms to squeeze you for a true bear hug.
But, don’t go running up to hug any old Pangoro because they are also famously aggressive, responding with their fists to anyone they see as a potential enemy! If you do manage to befriend one, Pangoro will treat you with kindhearted love. Fighters with hearts of gold.
6Cinderace
Who could resist a strong hug from a fluffy rabbit? Cinderace are another soft but not too soft Pokémon – plus, their Fire typing gives them plenty of extra warmth. Cinderace are also very fun to be around with loud and rambunctious personalities, ready to show off their skill and have fun.
Though that strength could be a downside as these Pokémon have a habit to go overboard with things, so there is a small chance they might accidentally crush you. It might just be worth it for a cozy hug.
While Cinderace are energetic and playful, Delphox are much more comforting, relaxing huggers! Covered head to toe in fluffy, soft fur, Delphox are made for cuddles, and their calm, kind nature makes them perfect for hugging.
But, Delphox do have a bit of a dangerous side as their fire wands are said to burn at thousands of degrees. Delphox gets away with it, though, as they have finer control than other Fire types. If you want a literal warm embrace, Delphox can be your fluffy friend!
The most friendly Pokémon in existence, Chansey are going to give you hugs precisely when you need them, always seeking to cheer up people. Large and soft, they’re basically shaped to be nice to hug. Plus, just being around one is said to bring happiness.
As a nice bonus, Chansey will give eggs to anyone with injuries, and they (the eggs) are said to be absolutely delicious. The only downside is that Chansey are incredibly rare, so not many trainers will get the chance to hug one.
One of the fluffiest Pokémon designs, being mostly fluff themselves, Wooloo are practically made to cuddle with like a pillow. These little sheep are covered in a thick layer of wool that grows incredibly quickly. They’re also said to be very friendly and mimic their trainer.

But, their wool may not be as cuddly as one would hope, instead being quite tough and durable – since nothing said about its comfort. Even if they feel like a bit of a harder pillow, Wooloo are still a walking pillow, so it’s still a win, hug-wise.
You can’t get more fluffy than the clouds themselves, and that’s exactly what Altaria are. These mighty dragons soars through the skies with incredibly fluffy wings made of the softest feathers. If Wooloo are walking hard foam pillows, Altaria are walking (well, flying) feather pillow!
These Pokémon are also said to be incredibly friendly, giving hugs to those they consider friends. On top of that, they will sing beautiful songs – which are said to put people in a dreamlike state – to those same friends. If you want a relaxing time, Altaria are perfect!
1Wigglytuff
While the hugability of Pokémon doesn’t often come up, Wigglytuff are so cuddly that even the games go out of their way to mention it! Wigglytuff are kind and just as cute as their predecessors, making them irresistible in terms of hugs.
But, while it isn’t obvious from their looks, Wigglytuff have extremely fluffy and soft fur that is so luxurious, anyone who touches it will never want to stop. Between that and their perfect pillow shape, Wigglytuff are made for hugs. Wigglytuff is easily the best hugger in Pokémon.
